THE MAN WHO DESPISES AMERICA

Is the Obama Administration the most anti-business administration in our lifetime? Recently, I was invited to CNBC's Kudlow Report where I had the joy of debating former Democratic National Committee chair Howard Dean and BET founder Robert Johnson on that very question.
During the course of that interview, Dean -- naturally -- argued that in fact Americans' animosity was directed primarily at business these days, which is about as absurd and counter-factual a position as one can take. However, I was pleasantly surprised when Johnson, an Obama supporter and also a business owner, generally agreed with my views on the current administration.
Johnson is only seeing the obvious, as was I when I said the Obama administration is the most anti-business in my lifetime. Which others come close? Presidents Kennedy and Johnson dealt with big issues but viewed business as partners. President Nixon saw business as an ally, despite his missteps on wage and price controls and leaving the gold standard. President Ford understood that business created jobs and had little opportunity to hurt business.
While generally remembered as unfriendly to business, President Carter was a businessman and his "malaise" and oil cartel challenges were not anti-business. The first President Bush was good for business as was President Clinton, whose main defects were moral. President George W. Bush made some whopper mistakes -- but could hardly be called bad for business.
But in just under three years, the Obama Administration has hurt American business more than all these Administrations put together.

NO. Lenin, Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot were a little bit worse.
Obama would need to jail a large percentage of the Asians population (Some who owned businesses), confiscate gold, and jail farmers who engage in competitive business practices.
To think, that is just the appetizers in terms of FDR's involvement with the economy, Obama has an uphill battle if he wants the title.
“Is Obama Administration the Most Anti-Business in Recent Memory?”
Duh! Was Lenin a Communist?
Some businesses LOVE Obama. GE, green energy companies, Comcast, Wall Street firms that got bailouts, GM, Fiat, etc.etc.etc. Clearly WalMart and Olive Garden are swooning for him now too.
He told us about his guiding values, but many including Republican politicians chose to ignore him.

You have stated the fact, and I ask “Why have spineless American Businessmen and women allowed SPECDAHOLIC Obama to do such great harm to them?”
Obama isn't just anti-business, as Ayn Rand put it he is Anti-Life.
Hugo Chavez and Kim Jong-il are probably slightly worse.
Dead on Balls Accurate.
The more appropriate question would be, “Is the Obama administration the most anti-business EVER?”
And the answer, of course, would be a very sure and certain, “Yes!”
Indeed, it would be impossible to wreck the United States more effectively if this Bozo were doing it intentionally.
Which he may very well be doing, as a covert sleeper agent of al-Qaeda - we have no way of knowing, since no one in a position of authority seems to evince even the slightest interest in his background - which he continues to maintain a secret from those who elected him to the highest office in the land, and the most powerful in the world.
There has never, in the entire history of the United States, been such a scandalous and evil cloud over the country.
