Obama just took a 400k speaking fee

[kilroy69 990]

Anyone get the feeling Clinton is thinking fuckk it. Soooo 400k is the going rate now.

[tanatastic 2,061]

Wow, who the hell pays that much?

[wiffleball 4,629]

Ya know, I remember when peeps biitched about past WH residents (not just POTUS) getting huge speaking fees.

Yeah, it's probably some form of delayed pay for access, but fock it.

 

I don't care what side of the aisle you're on, for the scrutiny and bullshiit that all these guys - and their families - take,

I say good for them.

 

Reason I say that more than anything - is, just look at some of these dooshbag coke-snorting, whoring equities and commodity

traders in NY and elsewhere make in bonuses alone. THEN, look at their bosses.

If people who at least TRIED to do some good can take their money for a rubber-chicken dinner and an hour of bullshiit,

more power to them.

 

If you need another few points of comparison, look at the 100s of millions that dictators around the world make doing absolutely horrific shiit. Worse, look at the Kardashians.

 

There's a lot of F'ed up shiit in Washington to be sure, but to be under constant scrutiny,

and oh yeah, don't forget constant death threat for you and yours, compared to what some

seriously shiity, slimy, no good greedy fothermockers out there who make money in the tens and 100's of millions, F it.

 

 

I'd even say the same thing about Trump - and he's - well, you know.

[wiffleball 4,629]

Wow, who the hell pays that much?

But nobody bats an eye when a woman beating, cruel, scheming, selfish, whoring, drug abusing, no talent puss-bag

rapper or actor commands $50 Million for a movie or a Concert Tour.

Wait....thought he wasnt selling out to the "fat cat bankers on wall street"? Pretty sure he said it on the way out.

 

Color me shocked.

Did he? I know he called them fat cats. Do you have a link where he said he wouldn't do this? I'd be interested.

What does Trumps cabinet have to do with this?

[Alias Detective 1,177]

Chicago or a minority based organization is my bet.

[KSB2424 3,082]

Planned Parenthood?

 

They have all sorts of money they give to political people yet complain they can't exist without taxpayer money.

Yeah. Crap...it was on tv...I've been looking for a transcript but can't seem to find it.

 

I really don't care..don't blame him at all. Just ribbing.

I know Elizabeth Warren is pissed.

[cyclone24 1,787]

Ya. Hard to be the anti Wall Street party.

 

Dunno..this registers about a 1 on the give a crap meter. Obama wants to speak?,..cool.

[Cruzer 1,992]

Shiit - Barry can afford one of them expensive Trump ties, made in China now...

[frank 2,143]

$1,000 to start talking and $399,000 to stop.

 

 

Am I right people?

[NorthernVike 2,079]

What's really shocking about this, is wiffleball is defending a black man to this extent.

Obama....Black.....Stop it! I'm gonna tinkle!

[kilroy69 990]

I really don't care how much he gets. I want to see the hike in Willie's fees

[kilroy69 990]

He's doing it for half.

[Cdub100 3,366]

Damn that's 10k per "if" and 100k for an "okie doke"

 

[posty 2,295]

Good for him... He isn't worth one penny of it, but if he can find someone idiots to pay him, go for it...

[wiffleball 4,629]

Speaking of Hillary, now that she's not running for anything,

I hope to God (for both of them) that Bill and Hill finally get

the Big D and get it over with.

- Can you imagine how much MORE wool he could pull?

 

Dude's got a bum ticker - can't afford to waste time with a shrew like that.

like a super hot model. 10 years younger....Than Chelsea

[RaiderHaters Revenge 3,563]

And to think we have a democrat who is capitalizing on a capitalist market. Good for him. If Bernie was prez he would have to speak for free. For a guy who proved to be a socialist president I guess he has no problem getting paid

Good example of why the Democratic Party is FOS at this point. They got nothin to offer

[Fah-Q 0]

Anyone claiming to support free market capitalism that an issue with him taking the cash is no less hypocritical than him for taking it.

 

Can't surprise anyone. Did you expect him to go back to community organizing?

I support FMC, and I condemn him for doing this. He said one thing and is doing another. Dishonest as they come. If you're about the money, go for it, but don't say you aren't and then pull this crap.

do you have his quote handy?

[Hardcore troubadour 12,552]

No. But I do remember his rhetoric as he ran for president in 08, at the hight of the economic crises that was caused by his benefactors. He's a phony, plain and simple , and he never passes up on an opportunity.

Best I can see, he def trashed the fat cats, but no one including google so far has shown

him saying he wouldn't take their money after he left office.

ROFLMAO. No one is ragging on the dude for taking the money. But you can't deny the hypocrisy of doing so. Or can you?

Really? Have you read this thread?

What are Cyc and HT complaining about then?

What's the title of this focking thread then?

...But it's not about that? mkaay...

[Filthy Fernadez 2,696]

"It’s also likely to be a source of criticism against the former president given Obama’s record of attacks against Wall Street bankers for making huge salaries while average Americans were suffering from the ravages of the 2008 financial crisis. Obama, a progressive Democrat, spoke frequently about Wall Street greed during his eight years as president, and now he’s accepting a speaking fee from the industry he singled out as the main culprit of the banking collapse."

I'm sure Barry can afford to buy you a Schlitz now.

[TimmySmith 2,782]

Meh. We all knew Barry would set new standards for raking it in. Just think what the tag would be if Hillary were President and the State Department was setting the price.

I wonder if the river of dirty money flowing into the Clinton foundation has started to dry up. Clearly she's finished and I believe the Dems have had about enough of that family (ditch the lil b!tch Chelsea).
