Smart Alec Baldwin who signed with Capitol One for $1,000,000 to do commercials has now taken the side of the Occupy Wall Street crowd. I heard Capital One is just thrilled. Talk about hypocrisy. If it wasn't for low standards he wouldn't have any.
He has more compassion for the zombies on Wall Street then his own daughter.
(Sometimes you have to strip away the veneer to see what you're really getting)
Warning painful to watch.
Occupy Wall Street has gained celebrity supporters, as the protests continue for the 20th day in New York City.
Michael Moore, Tim Robbins and his EX, Yoko Ono, who have not benefited from this... capitalistic pig society... are joining the Zombies.
Like Hank Williams Jr
Even the exalted one and his comical sidekick are getting into the act by transforming the whole shebang into a campaign rally!
This coming from a guy who some say is expected to raise 1 billion in campaign contributions. Anyone remember those $36,000 a plate fund raising dinners? The attendees were those filthy capitalists millionaires and billionaires.
Something I could never figure out is Obama continually shifts the blame for is own failed polices on millionaires and billionaires and yet the fools continue to write him a check.
Speaking at a White House news conference, Obama said he understood the people’s concerns about how the nation's financial system works and said many Americans see Wall Street as an example of the financial sector not always sticking to the rules.
"It expresses the frustrations that the American people feel that we had the biggest financial crisis since the Great Depression, huge collateral damage all throughout the country, all across Main Street," the president said, adding that he understood their anger toward the same irresponsible people who enforced abusive practices and got Americans into social ills in the first place.
"We have to have a strong, effective financial sector in order for us to grow,"Obama said Thursday. He also said that the financial-regulation bill he signed ensures tougher oversight of the US’ financial system.
Vice President Joe Biden compared the Wall Street movement to the origins of the Tea Party, a grassroots political movement (He used to refer to it as astroturf) that endorses reductions in government spending, national debt, and the federal budget deficit.
“What is the core of that protest?” Biden asked rhetorically. “The core is: the bargain has been breached. The core is, the American people do not think the system is fair, or on the level.”
Biden cited Bank of America’s recent decision to impose a $5 monthly fee on some debit card users as an example of how the issue has generated frustration among Americans and inspired the Wall Street movement.
Classic political re-direction of how to play the blame-game.
I guess that $5.00 monthly fee must be a hell of a lot more momentous then the U.S. debt of almost $15 trillion.
