Obama Is Giving the Banks More Than $1 Billion Per Hour

For anybody who still keeps score...

Pro Publica has posted a survey of various estimates of all the many bail-outs aimed at the financial services industry, and if you take the average of the three figures which they consider...$3.2 trillion, $4.17 trillion, and $4.43 trillion... you arrive at a composite estimate of $3.93 trillion.

Even if a very generous $1 trillion is assigned to Bush/Paulson, that still leaves more than $2.9 trillion on Obama's tab, and in order to achieve that titanic give-away after only 110 days in the Oval Office, Mr. Obama has had to deliver more than $1 billion per hour, and more than $24 billion per day, which would only add up to $2.64 trillion for his 110 days in the White House.

More than $1 billion per hour, 24/7, for 110 days.

So I guess you could say that Barack Obama is a very good friend of the banks.

Yes, he is a very good friend of the banks (0.00 / 0)
Now, what are you going to do about it? We can't dump Obama for another 3-3/4 years, but we can dump free-spending, bank-loving Senators and Representatives before then.

So, what plan do you espouse to accomplish this? Or, do you seriously suggest that we wait until the 2012 primaries, and just focus on dumping Obama? Or do you have some other plan, entirely?

Certainly, whining is not a plan...
