let in speaking of wage
so cory booker
and look
my did nothing cory booker surprise as said this weekend surprise me he was on
meet the press
you know doing what corporate it's dams due in court recorded booker make no
mistake is always been one of those corporate is dams
and
that is essentially
defending
his big money donors from wall street
is the mayor newark
ike don't think
the strength
of those members of his constituency
were on wall street is elect a quarrel
in other words
this is where he gets a bunch of money
and he was sent out and forget a second
the part of that he's out there
as a surrogate for the o bomb a campaign who cares i don't care
but he was on
meet the press injustice show you
how intense
here
the power
of investment
wall street money is
and just how much beholden as on
a large portion of the democratic party
i mean obviously it also has an on the republican party it is the republican
party
just now they've branched out
from the democrats
which they've done you know obviously
robert rubin at all
we know that
so
workers on meet the press
and he's asked about
and just even though the i don't know how that the question was phrased but
somehow he essentially get around to
saying
ads disgusted with what romney's doing with revan right
and he's also you know almost equally uncomfortable with what uh... the obama
campaign is doing in terms of bain capital
it's a distraction from the real issues booker said of both the tax on baby in
jeremiah wright
it's either going to be a small campaign about this crap or it's gonna be a big
campaign about the issues the american public cares about
i'm not about to sit here and die private equity if you look at the
totality bain capitals record they don't like to support businesses to grow
business
and this to me i'm very uncomfortable
if mit romney who is running on his time is a businessman
who's business basically consisted of
two things one
venture capital
investing seed money and
companies
gambling
but probably
educated gambling
and then going in and essentially
tearing apart the company
selling off everything that wasn't nailed down
driving into deep debt
screwing the creditors is still being able to extract millions of dollars to
put into your pocket all the while destroying a community
and the jobs in lives
of people who used to work there
not part of
the issues that americans care about i'm really curious to see what it is that
they care about
courted corey book
but this is the enemy it's this is
support you get your arms around it
because
this is what's wrong with the democratic party this is what's wrong with the
washington establishment
they create this false equivalency between
talking about a guy's pastor
we find you know uh... i mean
things i had about a guy's pastor
talking about a pastor who
since the first uh...
reverend wright
story
nearly four years ago probably four years ago to the derry pretty close
president obama hasn't been going to that church
i mean i i never had a problem in the first place
but surely did there's nothing new here
and in all those a function of identity politics
the issue
with mitt romney
isn't that he worked at pain or he wears obtained t-shirt
the issue is is that
this is his vision for the country
as long as you can extract money out of the situation it's a winning situation
regardless of what happens to the people
these bain attacks
would probably get
no traction or have a little traction
if he wasn't going around in every other day yeltsin's mouth enforcing that
message
americans can borrow twenty thousand dollars for their parents
and go out and make your money
we were roughly uh... when we were
url will roughly what we were
grad students we have a live off of you know a hundred thousand dollars worth of
stock options
adding get any advantages that anybody else didn't get
from my father who is president of the major car corporation in governor of the
state
and just like everybody else
it's not a big deal to prey upon the week amongst us
there's no remorse involved in that
it's not just i was a juror when i was then high school find it's at now ive
umu let bygones be bygones
this is the problem
and not just with ronnie visit there should be a bigger conversation
about extracting value out of our
economy
he's i don't know where cory booker wise
but
about three-and-a-half years ago
our economy when it to the crap order because
of
the financial games are being played by finance in this country
so if this is a relevant i don't know why
i appreciate cory booker helping people out on twitter when they've got a shovel
their walks
and go on and that's great
he's a good guy
but this notion that somehow it's below the belt to talk about finance in this
country
and you know
if corey book i want to get out and say hey there's a little hypocritical
espresso obama raise more money from wall street and john mccain did
or this may be a little hypocritical because bain uh...
executives
probably hedging their bets by given money to obama
judge that's a good credit schism let's hear it
but to say yet
this type of uh...
private equity business
is off limits
it's the equivalent of trying to make some fabric guilt by association
of a pastor
who said stuff frankly that wasn't
at least the stuff that uh... unit
i didn't listen to that
hours in hours and hours but i listen to
wasn't terribly controversial in my mind
i mean for a pastor to see
to say that those two things are quoted
is really just to say
i'm trying to change the conversation
away from some of the serious issues that we have to face
on two issues that i consider serious but i will leave a neat
