Obama in Rude Denial (CEOs: He's Clueless!!!)

"Most of these people [in the Administration] have never had a real job in their lives. They don't understand a thing about business, and that includes the President," says a senior lobbyist for one of the companies that announced the charge. "My CEO sat with the President over lunch with two other CEOs, and each of them tried to explain to the President what this bill would do to our companies and the economy in general. First the President didn't understand what they were talking about. Then he basically told my boss he was lying. Frankly my boss was embarrassed for him; he clearly had not been briefed and didn't know what was in the bill."

This president is both ignorant of how captialism works and arrogant. A tough combo to combat. He underestimates how much clout these CEO’s have in the business community.

Don’t you think Waxman should have known more about Sarbanes-Oxley, which I am sure he voted on??

[GOPJ]

Dems understand that companies have the money - and they want their cut. It’s the Chicago Way - it’s the CEO’s who don’t “get it”... but they will. If they go along, they’ll win for a while. If they stand honest they’ll be mowed under...

[Clioman]

Willie Sutton robbed banks because “that’s where the money is.” It’s the same reason why The One robs corporations.

I agree that it was pretty obvious that any CEO who supported Obama should have done their own homework and done a background check on the candidate. There was a lot of information available that gave a lot of us clues as to who and what he was. I really blame the press, especially the press that traveled with him for disinformation.

[crosshairs]

But he WANTS the economy destroyed.

[The Pack Knight]

Either the President is breathtakingly ignorant about how the real world works and was incredibly naive about how his policies would be received both here and abroad, or he is simply feigning ignorance and actually just doesn’t care. I’m not sure which is worse.

Barack Obama: chains we can believe in!

BUMP

[Red in Blue PA]

Most of these people [in the Administration] have never had a real job in their lives.

Thought that needed shouting.

[surfer]

By throwing him out of office...

[dps.inspect]

Democrat Party = Socialist Democratic Party

[CSM]

He doesn’t care what is in the bill, let alone what it would do to businesses.

[TigerBait]

So why did they pump $100 mill into a Marxist’s political campaign? That’ll learn ‘em.

[reaganrevolutionin2010]

We have morons like this to thank for the Marxist in the WH.

[reagan_fanatic]

How do you explain capitalism to a Marxist?

Zero knows full well what Capitalism is, and he knows what he wants to do to it. Destroy it in favor of its new matrix. Socialism, then Communism.

He may be an imbicile, but he knows what he's doing. In his mind, it's payback time.

[subterfuge]

each of them tried to explain to the President what this bill would do to our companies and the economy in general.

He's known all along what it would do, you ninnies! That's the point!

[jerri]

BHO:

Butt Head Obama

[dinoparty]

True, but it won’t help but most of their constituents are in the same boat.
