Obama’s $400,000 Cantor Speech Makes Him Wall Street's Newest Fat Cat

[IcebergSlim]

I want to see Obama's tax returns.

here you go....

Tax History Project -- Presidential Tax Returns


when you are done, tell us how Obama's 2015 return compares to Trump's......

Sure they all make big money giving meaningless speeches. What is curious is why Obama's fee is double his predecessors. He must have really made those Wall Street fat cats happy to get $400K to listen to his BS.

 

[IcebergSlim]

When he was president he called them “fat cats,” but now he’s likely thanking them for a huge payday.

He also called them responsible for the housing crisis. Blamed them for the recession. Demonized
Wall Street for destroying Main Street. Incited class warfare. But one thing he didn't do - send any of them to jail.

So...
a) he was in league with the 'fat cats'
or..
b) they were red herrings.

But I'm pleased as punch that he and Michelle are finally proud of their country, unabashedly reaping the financial rewards of capitalism.

You talk a lot of the same prattle as the rest of the Drudge dependent dross that litters this place.

You're as dumb as a fucking brick....

Obama just signed the richest book deal in Presidential history.....he doesn't need Cantor's $$$$....

When the market goes looking for Obama, he just sits back and waits for the zeros to be added until there are enough of them to motivate him to put on a tie.

This isn't like the "manufactured income" provided to his predecessor....

 

[TNHarley]

Why is this surprising about the corporatist Obama?

Of course he doesn't "need" the money. He got rich off his books while POTUS. Hek, we taxpayers even bought 70K copies.

The Russians paid Bill Clinton $500K to show them his recipe for making beet soup. He only needed 15 minutes.
I wonder what recipe Obama has to offer?

I wonder how much the North Koreans paid Bill for their nuclear missile and reactors technology?

Very astute man you are! Yes, it was prattle - on Obama's part.

Sadly, so was the part about The Obama's pride in America - on my part.

 

[BluesLegend]

After calling Wall Street exec's "fat cats" for 8 years Obama is now charging them $400,000 for a single speech, that's more per hour than any CEO earns. That's $832 million a year, OH THE HYPOCRISY of the left. That he's taking money from the very "fat cats" he scorned is complete hypocrisy. Do you corporation hating libs feel betrayed?

Unlike his predecessors, Obama is actually a good speaker

And, remarkably, this is a man who has never had anything interesting to say.

No....it was the liturgy of stupid on which you have been gorging for the past 8 years....

Michelle Obama's feelings about the US are shaped by her experience living in it......who the fuck are you, pampered poodle, to judge?

Why don't you read up on how the N. Koreans wound up with nuclear missiles, Steve.....


you will find that it is yet another element of the tragic legacy of the worst POTUS of the modern era...

You cast two votes for him, didn't you?

 

[BluesLegend]

Maybe he's going to be talking about his vacation on that billionaires yacht?

 

[Weatherman2020]

But it is fun watching the left suddenly not concerned about rich people as long as they are Muslims.

Yeah, all you'd have to do is book and then conduct 2000 speeches a year. This probably seems quite feasible in far right tardland.

 

[Iceweasel]

It's the way of the leftist elites the world over. They should not have to live the way they demand of you.

 

[Weatherman2020]

The left stand for nothing except power.

Why not? He says the same crap over and over again. Not like the teleprompter needs reloaded or anything.
