(By the way, in all my visits, that's been the first mention of -- or even reference to -- the President that I've seen.)
On a related note: are there enough unnamed sources in this NYT article for you? I liked this bit, though:
“Who do you think pays the taxes?” said one longtime money manager. “Financial services are one of the last things we do in this country and do it well. Let’s embrace it. If you want to keep having jobs outsourced, keep attacking financial services. This is just disgruntled people.”
He added that he was disappointed that members of Congress from New York, especially Senator Charles E. Schumer and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand, had not come out swinging for an industry that donates heavily to their campaigns. “They need to understand who their constituency is,” he said.
Don't worry. The 99% understand who their constituency is.

Ummm... let me think: Warren Buffet's secretary?
so, how about changing campaign finance laws so your industry and others CANNOT buy their politicians?
"disgruntled citizen"
If you want to keep having jobs outsourced, keep attacking financial services.
Translation: "When they outsourced YOUR job, the market surged, and we all got huge bonuses!"
"But now they might outsource MY job... so let's all sing SOLIDARITY FOREVER."
Financial services are one of the last things we do in this country and do it well.
That is why everyone is celebrating how great you are. There's a whole park in NY full of happy partiers!
money shuffling is the last stage of empire. i wish i was there w/ a sign-of corporations, by corporations, FOR corporations.
A quote from a high-roller campaign fundraiser:
"Some people call you the elite.
I call you my constituency."
--G.W. Bush, 2000
