Top U.S. bank executives have been slammed as 'fat cats' by a very annoyed Barack Obama.

Wall Street executives are in for a scolding over bonuses when they meet with the U.S. president today.

Mr Obama complained about bonuses bankers are raking in on CBS '60 Minutes' news programme last night.

'I did not run for office to be helping out a bunch of fat cat bankers on Wall Street,' Mr Obama said

'What's really frustrating me right now is that you've got these same banks who benefited from taxpayer assistance who are fighting tooth and nail with their lobbyists up on Capitol Hill, fighting against financial regulatory control,' he added.

'The country did incredible things for the banking industry,' Mr Summers, director of the National Economic Council, told ABC's 'This Week' program. 'They need to recognize that they've got obligations to the country after all that's been done for them, and there is a lot more they can do.'

Spot on ...... kick them in the goolies!!

If the world reacts to these paracites like they should we can make it so uncomfortable that they will be happy just to get away without being strung up by lynch mobs ... won't be long before their country mansions are torched - greedy b4stards!!!!

 

Those pesky 'bankers' making an appearance in one of your posts again... what a surprise.

 

It's not MY post .... its Obama's post!!

 

Obama is another commie. We've all had 12 years of commies in this country, now it's America's turn to suffer....

 

Commies.

 

Can't see anything wrong with what Obama said about those bankers whose very fingers are dripping with greed!

In a country where capitalism goes to the very core, yeah right....

 

I have more respect for Obama, then the bellmiester who runs this country......

 

There is capitalistic greed of course which is nothing to write home about, and then there is Bankers' Greed!
