HUFFPOST'S BIG NEWS PAGES
Obama has shown a horrendous lack of judgement in his pick for treasury secretary and his
ridiculously strong stance on advocating for the senate to keep bernanke as the head of the fed. One,
his appointing of geithner and his backing of bernanke is a political nightmare, It is beyond clear that
his base are disgusted by these two. Particularly, now that we found out that the NY fed (led by
geithner at the time and with bernanke as the head) and the sec let AIG keep their backdoor bailout a
secret from the american public even though such a bailout was not even going to AIG but rather the WTF Iraq NFL
biggest banks who would get their own bailout and will probably never pay back this one.
Furthermore, such bailout was payed 100 cents on the dollar even though most money was NOT
being repayed at that rate. (PLEASE READ BELOW)

. Geithner has consistently showed not only that he is a completely incompetent regulator but he is
also clearly in bed with wallstreet. Bernanke has consistently advocated FOR keeping all these

last legs? Obama's constant talk about taking it to wallstreet is horribly contradictory to his backing of
bernanke. Sure we can blame the republicans and ignore obama's role in reform or lack thereof but
doing so would be a disservice to him and us.

Ed Schultz is my Fav. of all time. I just know when right-right wing, Comcast, gobbles up
MSNBC, then Ed, Keith and Rachel will be shown the door from the get-go. Comcast will
then compeat to the far right of the Fake News Channel.

Ed Schultz is focusing on the small picture when he should be looking at the big one. If he does not
wake up he is going to be feeling very foolish in the near future. I think those who follow him need to
remember what the last eight years did to this country and stop trying to believe that any President
could have cured all our ills in just one year. The American people are going to be digging their way
out of the Bush recession for a long time to come. Republicans are now painting themselves as the
fiscal conservatives and the ones who want to protect the national debt but it was they that handed
Obama a colossal pile of, well you can fill in the blank. How quickly we forget and how easily we allow
ourselves to be swayed.

You obviously don't watch Ed's show. Ed says that he still supports Obama, but he is exactly
right. Obama is conceding way too much ground to Dems and Republicans who are acting
in an obstructive manner because they are protecting big business and not doing the work
of the people. Listen, one thing I like about being a Democrat is that we are not a group who
blindly follows our leaders over cliffs.
We all know what the Republicans have done to this country over the last 8 years. We
witnessed it and are still feeling the pain. But Obama is not fixing the problem by cowtowing
to the right. He's making it worse and I'm glad to see people like Ed tell the Obama
administration the way it is. Otherwise it would be too easy for them to pretend as if the
progressives and liberals who helped him get elected didn't exist. I think you are the one not
seeing the big picture.

It's Reid's fault. Also Pelosi's to a great extent. Bills get passed in the House and Senate. Read a
civics book. Obama should certainly lead more, but when Reid can't get a bill passed because he
doesn't want to do what Frist did all the time, reconciliation, because he doesn't know how to kick a**
on Senators like Nelson and Lieberman by threatening to ruin their state's economies (Conn. makes
subs and Nebraska is beholden to farm subsidies), and because he's the biggest wimp to ever take
a Senate leadership posistion, how does any Progressive Dem think that any bill protecting the
working class is going to pass?

absolutely, Reid couldn't even figure out last week if he was going to vote Bernanke in or out.
I don't think there's even been a majority leader as indecisive and spineless as Reid.

Ed is right, Gibbs, Jarrett and Axelrod are all full of sh*t, Obama should get rid of all three of them.

The Republicans have mastered the narrative of misinformation, distortion and deception, heck
Brown even stole the 'Kennedy'(Jack) narrative away from the Democrats.

listening to the robotic style of Valerie Jarret and the forever stumbling-stuttering Axelrod(who can't
utter a 5 word sentence w/o interjecting a gazillion uh's/ah's) was excruciatingly painful to watch, they
both went back to the same talking points from the 2008 campaign and the same ol' tired finger-
pointing, "remember we were losing 700,000 jobs now were down to 80,000...yada,yada,yada".

no one relates to these two or mealy-mouth Gibbs, they have absolutely NO MESSAGE. Obama has
surrounded himself with his 'Chicago friends' and he wonders why he is where he is today and his
base/Independents are leaving him in droves...that's what Ed Schultz is trying knock into their heads.

Obama should replace Gibbs with Kofinis or O'Donnell, Axelrod with Gergen, Jarrett with Rachel
Maddow.

You make it sound as if Obama is the victim in all this. He hired them.
