Yes, Wall Street made more profits in two years of Obama, than eight years of Bush.

This Video further shows us who Obama really works for, and it sure isnt The People. Wall Street and the Big Banks are sucking the life out of our economy. Money that once went to fund schools, repair roads and infrastructure and create public services is now being siphoned off to the already ultra wealthy. Then Obama takes the remaining dollars stolen from the people and dumps them into the War Machine. Why is Obama still in office when his promises of change and transparency were trampled with his true agenda of looting this nation and seizing more rights from The People. People i ask you, how long are we going to allow this to continue?

This was apparent even before he was elected. Look at who his top donors for his campaign were. He took more money from wall street than any other candidate in the history of this country.

Goldman Sachs,Google, JPMorgan Chase, Citigroup Inc, Time Warner, General Electric, Morgan Stanley...

To answer your question,...

The media work hand in hand with his campaign. All we ever hear about lately is the republican candidates, even though the election is a year away. The media won't focus on Obama and his short-comings because the big players in the media believe he is their guy.

6 on one hand, half a dozen on the other. An even dozen, but it doesn't matter if ALL the eggs are bad.

Plus, due to creative accounting the dozen has somehow become 10.

There is one good egg however. Hard-boiled fer sure: Ron Paul. Maybe too late to save the 'Western' omelette though.

Humpty-Dumpty had a great fall.

Egg-drop soup anyone?

The markets were in decline under Bush and had hit bottom with Obama's administration....so naturally we will see more profits due to the change in the overall trend.


Peace

Anyone who is wondering why this country is screwed should just read the quote above ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

This is the mindset of the average voter - "Not my guy's fault, the other guy did it" - instead of looking for facts and applying some semblence of logic and reason.

Hey nhee - you are aware that Bush to took the stock market to record highs before the 2007 trend began right??? And he succeeded in doing so after seeing near precipitous falls as a result of 9/11, right??? Oh wait, apparently you're not aware of that or anything else having to do with reality. I mean it couldn't have anything to do with your guy being a corrupt, dishonest politician, right???


Man, this country is screwed. People should have to pass an IQ test before being allowed to vote!

Occurs he did, after all he was the first one to gave them tax payer dollars to keep profiting with his bailout while the rest of the nation decay and still is decaying.

This is the end result of the policies that favour the banks only! Obama has tried to stop this but has failed because the bankers won't let him.

I agree, we here are fighting not just for corporate take over but the entire world is fighting also, if you have followed the EU saga you know that they are trying to kill the peoples rights to Democratic process one nation at the time, entire governments are been replace with technocrats supporters by the banking cartel that runs the global markets, US government has already been replace with a Corporate Dictatorship run by the Fed, but as long as the people think they are voting everything is peachy.

Reality is going to hit many people very soon if the EU experiment doesn't fail.

You and I know that is failing, darn for what I am concern it failed already but too much money is behind the pushing of the EU and their agenda, I been following the whole saga very closely, as long as the powers behind the whole globalization scam of unified countries the EU nation consolidation will not stop or give up easily because they have invested too much, the rewards of what they want to make of the world are to sweet and too addictive and even if they fail we will still be stuck with the corrupted entity call the Federal Reserve bank.

I'm sorry, but what evidence do you have to present that shows that Obama tried to stop the bankers??

The same bankers that funded his campaign based on deceit and lies?


Lets stop the partisan nonsense people, it saddens me that Americans can't see that both of these political parties are OUR ENEMIES.

Oh come on.

This has nothing to do with Obama.

Bernake has more than tripled the supply of base money, all this excessive money creation is why wall street is roaring. So if you want to blame someone blame Bernake.

Well, he did renew the Patriot Act so it's pretty obvious who he works for. Sure isn't the American people who put him there. Can't say that Bush was at all better though.
