#2 Mr. Obama's aides said any surge of such a sentiment could complicate efforts to win Congressional approval for the additional bailout packages that Mr. Obama has signaled will be necessary to stabilize the banking system.

"Such a sentiment"...as in will of the American people. How quickly they forget who they represent. Or did they every know?

#3 "This has been welling up for a long time," he said.

So, how was SENATOR Obama out in front on this the past TWO years with real programs and not empty speeches? /rhetorical question

#4 The Obama administration is increasingly concerned about a populist backlash against banks and Wall Street, worried that anger at financial institutions could also end up being directed at Congress and the White House and could complicate President Obama’s agenda.

Translation: We are worried that the voters will actually hold us accountable in 2010 and the donks will lose their majority, thus complicating the socialist push Obama is doing. We blame Bush.

#5 Whoa! Obama was a Senator? Who knew?
After this NYT piffle last night about the problems presented by populist anger blah blah Obama gets on TV today and says that he's "choked with anger" over the bonuses. Apparently anger is best left to the professionals.

#6 I thought one of the major reasons to vote for Obama was that he is so cool, calm, and collected when facing a crisis. What's this "choked with anger" stuff all about then -- which is the fake and which the real Barack Hussein Obama?
