Obama's one percenters

muttly · Apr 15, 2012

Obama's one percenters are the ones that give that tiny $35,800 donation so that they can get access in the whitehouse. Unlike the other 99% who don't usually have that money to throw around. He's busy afterall so the only way to get his attention is to drop that little envelope at the donors desk.

'Quid Pro Quo': Dem Rep Says Obama Selling Access

As much as things change they still stay the same. So much for the hope and change

Hypocrisy: Obama Said Big Donations Buy Access Average Voters

It's a poor excuse to continue doing it considering he ran a campaign in 2008 against business as usual and promised a NEW administration with integrity. Must have been just campaign mumbo jumbo.

I'm not saying it's an excuse. I'm saying that every president sells his time, and therefore, why is Obama any different?

I'm more interested in WHOM he sells his time to.

Not every president makes as big a deal about transparency and honesty and openness and changing how business is done. Obama exponentially played those cards. That's why the usual is a bigger deal with him. He's scummier than the usual scum.

And as long as 95% of voters keep voting for scum, scum you will have...

Every president preached hope and change. They just used different words. They all preached transparency in order to get close to the American voter; then back off when they win the lottery.

You know I'm not an Obama zombie... but I'm not afraid to call a spade a spade either. This crap is like the vacations argument that's constantly brought up... every friggen president does it. Hammer Obama on substance, not this crap. It don't float.

This everyone does it so no big deal argument is lame. This is the current person that is in the whitehouse so lets deal with is happening now. So your position is that those that give money to gain access isn't a big deal and not about substance? Yes or No?

Like I said, I'm more interested in who he allows access to. Charlie Trie? Chinese National donators? Crap like that. If Obama had the Muslim Brotherhood there for a fundraising meeting, I'd be interested.

And no... it's not alright that people get access by throwing money around. That's where elitism comes from. But I think you're being a bit hypocritical when you say, "This is now!", when I don't remember people complaining when Bush was in. Disgusting? Yes. But as common and disgusting as a poopy diaper. Get over it and find something other than baby crap to complain about.

Yeah I don't remember people complaining when Bush was in there too. Yeah right.

Funny. Guess everytime someone posts something about Obama they have to qualify it by adding :The past administrations did it too. Kind of silly. Just posting about the hypocrisy that's all. One person's corruption is another person's baby crap I guess.

Muttly, look who you're talking to. I'm not some liberal crackhead. I'm as conservative as one could get. I hear this stuff during every damm presidential term. It's a tool to get the uninformed riled up against a president. What I'm saying is that this is juvenile. If you play this game, you're showing your ability to debate is quite low. This is on par with "Yo mama" jokes.

Ok ok ok doesn't look like you think this is a serious issue.I get it ok. I won't post about Obama's one percenters anymore so long as you don't post about the OWS 99 percenters. I mean I'll take that deal. Ok deal?

I though that Obama Bums and the OWS bunch were one in the same. Both Obama and that bunch babble on how they hate those who work and succeed and how they need to take everything that they earn and give it the gimmie goobers. I think Obama's teams writes their drivel for them.
