Obama: “Most Important Thing I Can Do” Is Express Solidarity With Wall Street Occupiers, “We’re On The Same Side”…

Via USA Today:

Obama said the most important thing he can do as president is express solidarity with the protesters and redouble his commitment to achieving what he described as a more egalitarian society.

“The most important thing we can do right now is those of us in leadership letting people know that we understand their struggles and we are on their side, and that we want to set up a system in which hard work, responsibility, doing what you’re supposed to do, is rewarded,” Obama said. “And that people who are irresponsible, who are reckless, who don’t feel a sense of obligation to their communities and their companies and their workers that those folks aren’t rewarded.”

    “egalitarian society” is obama’s code word for SOCIALIST SOCIETY!

    Same side? Really? If the OWS/Flea Party had half a brain, they would realize that obama is the enemy. He was bankrolled by Wall Street. Many of the lobbyists who became obama cabinet members or czars are from Wall Street. obama is the one who killed the economy and it one of the reasons they cannot get a job. Well, that, and their appearance and smell.

    Community Organizer.

    That is all he has, and ever did.

    What a loser.

    BTW
    “doing what you’re supposed to do, is rewarded”

    What a bullshit statement, who determines that? Who determines the “reward”?

    Is it stimulus funds? Is it bailouts? Is it green energay?

    Thank you Mr. Obama, for erasing all doubt where you stand. Republican candidates – if you don’t hang onto this and use it, you are snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

    I think this Occupy movement will turn really nasty and every Dem who backed them is going to have to eat crow. Like a flock of them.

    So what is the grifter up to? Is he gambling that avg Americans are down with this entire action or is he attempting to revitalize the youth vote. The only “responsible” people who might support this are ones who have underwater mortgages and hefty tuition debt. Do they think they’ll be getting a free ride?

    This OWS is an attempt to mimic and steal the thunder from the Tea Party…It is contrived and funded by the democratic party and the administration as part of their re-election scheme. The plan was to get it started and have the loyal mass media amplify it…… build it up to the point where the administration can then enter through the back door as a supporter and hide their original involvement. This is a desperate attempt by the democrats to recapture the momentum they have lost since the election of 2008.
    Class warfare with the inference of violence…….bring it on ……..I’m ready to defend my Christian values….

    OBAMA ITS BACK FIREING

    New poll shows Americans blame Washington 2-1 over Wall Street for economy

    Earlier today, I wrote in my column for The Week that the Occupy Movement had aimed at the wrong entity in its protests over economic conditions, as yesterday’s poll from The Hill showed that a majority of likely voters blamed Washington more than Wall Street for the current state of the economy. USA Today and Gallup released their own joint poll of the general population — where the trend is even stronger:

    Most Americans blame Wall Street for the nation’s economic predicament — but they blame Washington more. …

    • When asked whom they blame more for the poor economy, 64% of Americans name the federal government and 30% say big financial institutions.

    • Only 54% say the economic system is personally fair to them; 44% say it is not.

    Gallup’s analysis shows that the Occupy Movement hasn’t exactly made a coherent case, either:

    Former community organizer probably tied in with ACORN which has already been identified as the architect of the current demonstrations… What further proof is needed to realize that the Chicago mob is alive and well in the White House?

    Of course, I’m from that nutty fringe group that believes the truth should prevail along with integrity freedom and the constitution.

    What a sorry ass mess we find ourselves in. So, let’s get rid of ‘em all in November, 2012!

    Not surprising. I’ve thought from the very beginning that the protestors have been doing nothing but parroting Obama’s class warfare/anti-business/redistributionist nonsense all along.

    Obviously Obama is not happy with becoming radioactive…he wants to go supernova.
    His inexperience is showing itself. Narcissism often leads to childish outbursts.
    This OWS or the SAC (Squatters And Complainers) movement is politically toxic and counterproductive. Glad Obama is standing with them.

    Take the community reinvestment act along with jimma carter and shove it up barney’s and maxine’s asses . Any hard working American who bought a little real estate for some old age security , knows exactly where I’m coming from . You can express solidarity all you want with those beggars . Nothing will re-elect you in 2012 . Americans are not as gullible as you perceive us to be . Keep up that commie speak , your really starting to show your true colors .
