Hedge Fund exec...
Wonder if Occupy Wall Street folks will occupy the White House now?
Lol..I like this from the article..
Lew made millions at Citi, including a bonus of nearly $950,000 in 2009 just a few months after the bank received billions of dollars in a taxpayer rescue, according to disclosure forms filed with the federal government. The bank is still partly owned by taxpayers.â€

You guys do know where his outgoing COS worked before he took the job right?
He was a senior executive for JP Morgan/Chase.
Wall street covers both sides of the aisle and there are a TON of them in the Obama WH....one of the reasons so many of us liberals have been bitching about him since he took office.

I know you are proud to be stupid, but it will take more than your post to hide the fact that many liberals hate President Obama and how he is governing.
It didn't take us 7 years to figure out the bastard we supported is full of shit like it did the "conservatives".

Yep, I sure as hell will.
Bad as he is, he is 1000 times better than anything coming from the Republican party. They have lost their god damned minds. Insane, un-American, traitors who want the country to fail so they can retake power.
If after 8 years of Bush, then 3 years of watching every republican in Washington actively working to make this country fail so that they can retake power you are still willing to vote for the assholes, you are a fucking idiot.

HAHAHAHAHA. And that's what is wrong with the country. You admit he is a failure and not what you thought you were voting for, yet you will reward that failure with your vote. Congratulations on being part of the problem.

No. Here is the problem.
Everything that Obama has done that pisses me off....is where he agrees with the Republicans, which he does way too often.
He has also done some great things that I highly approve of....just watered them down too much to make Republicans happy and push the bills thru.
So, my choice is between a guy who acts like a Republican part of the time, and a guy who will act like a Republican all of the time.
Not a great choice, but I have no hesitation in making it.

No, they both don't do the same thing.
No Republican would have pushed thru health care reform act, bad as it is...it's a hell of a big step in the right direction.
He killed OBL. 8 years and a big zip from the Republicans on that one.
He stood up to the lies and stupidity and bailed out the Auto industry. No Republican would have.
Don't ask, don't tell is gone. No republican would have done that.
Lilly Ledbetter act. Again, no Republican would have.
Just off the top of my head, there are hundreds more. I hate his stance on national security, war, Gitmo, Executive power and many others. But then, he agrees with the Republicans on them.
I get a lot better president by voting for him than by voting for anyone else. I know you "conservatives" can't understand compromise and dealing with imperfection instead of throwing a fit and taking your ball and going home...but we can.

I didnt vote for McCain and didnt vote for Bush's 2nd term and if Romney wins the bid i wont be voting for him either. Be a man and find an alternative instead of a drooling lemming. People like you is why we will never get out of this 2 party mess we are in.

The alternative is the same as it was in 2000....it gets a Republican elected. No thanks. Our system is broken, it's not going to be fixed by voting for some schmuck who doesn't stand a chance in hell of ever taking office. That isn't "taking a stand", it's "letting the bigger asshole win".
The fix will take people standing up out in the street. If you really care, go join an occupation, it will do a hell of a lot more good than pushing a button once every 4 years and getting nothing in return.

It is very hard to find talented people to work for the government. It is no surprise that politicians have to pull from private enterprise. Especially for the positions chosen you really need people who understand how to dig through a massive budget.
The head of the budget office is a very big job.

Last election I voted for Bob Barr. Ya, I knew he didn't have a chance but at least I wasn't voting for Obama or McCain.
Voting for Obama is voting for DC insiderism, just like a vote for Romney would be.
/that's how the cow ate the cabbage.
Claiming that he's the lesser of two evils when he sucks so bad is just using a partisan excuse to vote for "your guy".

This situation is going to get worse before it gets better. It wasn't until about 20 years ago that wall street started snapping up virtually ALL the top ivy league grads.
In 10-15 years it is going to be hard to find a top ivy league grad who HASN'T worked for wall street at some point.
Now maybe top ivy league grads are overrated but I don't think their dominance of the political/bereaucratic establishment is changing any time soon.

Nope. It wont change. The american establishment is coming to look like the English establishment, where you had better have an OxBridge education or you aren't going anywhere.

Other colleges are still respected and there is still plenty of oppotunity to distinguish yourself after college.
The problem is not the dominance of the Ivy Leagues in business but the dominance of Wall Street in getting talent instead of seeing it go other places.
