Today President Obama announced that due to public outcry, the salary/bonuses of bank executives would be cut by 90% in some cases.
Oddly, yesterday Obama had no knowledge of the cuts, but today he made the announcement. It seems the Pay Czar has free rein to take this drastic action.
So with this insight into his modus operandi there can be expected movement in his condemnations of ACORN activities and upcoming announcement of additional ACORN investigations and indictments. All this because the people spoke out.
There should also be special prosecutors appointed into the subprime mortgage fiasco since there was great public outcry. These bad loans were bought by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac under the expert leadership of Mr. Franklin Raines and enabled by Barney Frank and Chris Dodd. Beginning in the Clinton Administration and its Community Reinvestment Act, good banks were threatened with deprivation of funds if mortgages were not offered to parties with poor credit, no jobs and no down payment.
The opposition of the American citizens to Health Care Reform has been a continous long lived voice of disagreement. Since there can be no doubt as to the stance of the American people, it can't be long until the President announces his scraping of the entire Health Care Reform, and institutes torte reform, portability and eliminates fraud/waste at Medicare and Medicaid.
Since the American people were so vocal on Obama's indecision to sent the 40,000 troops requested by General Mac Crystal to Afganistan, that announcement will be forthcoming any day. If only President Obama had shared how easily he is swayed by public opinion.
So Mr. President, we, your humble citizens, will continue to speak out passionately on issues that matter to us and we anticipate that you will respect our opinions and act accordingly.

Obama's so green and inexperienced that he is frozen in fear to make any decision. Fear, too, of his radical left faction.
Huh? Joe, did you say something? I can't hear you. I don't have time to listern to little people. I get my facts from CNN. I don't listen to silly cry-baby citizens. I'm da MAN. I'm da PRES. I'm IMPOTENT
Why does Politians always cut everybody elses pay and benifits but never touch theirs? That proves no matter what level of Politics they are in they are still crooks and they beleive the citizens are to stupid to realize this. This also sounds a lot like the Unions and Teachers. They never want to pay their fare share.
You bash him for not "listening to the people."
Now you bash for actively "listening to the people."
Sounds like you need to make up your minds, too.
Signed,
Damned if you, damned if you don't Dept.
Ummmm...isn't it the president's job (the whole government's job actually) to execute the will of the citizens. But, silly me, I'm just going by what the U.S. Constitution has to say on the matter. Perhaps we really need 'W' back with his 'I-am-the-decider-my-way-or-the-highway' governmental philosophy.
Never thought I would yearn for the days of the Bush administration so soon.
Having a President and Vice President that we knew were doing everything possible to keep us safe is a far cry from the irreverent, inexperienced community organizer. Knowing that competent non-apologetic men and women who respected the country and the office of the presidency were safe guarding the greatest republic the world has ever seen.
Thank you President Bush and Vice President Cheney.
