A top reporter exposes the deep ties between the Obama administration and the big banks that are bankrupting our country.
As the recession continues, President Obama has chastised the "fat cats" who feast off government bailout money while unemployment remains high and smaller businesses struggle.
But according to Gasparino, Obama is faking his outrage, and his calls for new policies to rein in banks that are "too big to fail" are just pabulum. In reality, Obama has climbed into bed with Wall Street CEOs, giving them what they want so they will support his liberal, big-government agenda. As a result, the big banks responsible for the credit crisis get rescued, while small businesses and ordinary Americans get crushed by higher taxes and irresponsible spending.
Gasparino draws on interviews with dozens of key CEOs and political players to trace the roots of Wall Street's twisted love affair with one of the most liberal presidents in American history. He shows how, for decades, big banks and big business have colluded with big government, thereby laying the groundwork for today's shady dealings, and how the same bankers Obama now publically reprimands have supported him-not because he promises change, but because he promises business.
Written in Gasparino's characteristic smart yet no-nonsense style, this book is both an exposé and a wake-up call to all Americans to strike back against the people and policies that are ruining our country.
An especially aggressive reporter.

Bought and Paid For: The Unholy Alliance Between Barack Obama and Wall Street
Not so sure the relationship between Wall Street and Washington is "hidden" as the revolving door between financial companies and Washington is pretty well known. That said, readers can still be outraged at the different rules of the game between big business and consumers--savers punished by low interest rate, tax funded rescues of companies that went on to pay millions in bonuses to executives whose recklessness caused great harm to our economy, underwater home owners struggling to get loan modifications, etc. Gasparino writes in caffeinated prose, not afraid to quoting street-type language among Wall Street denizens who somehow can't believe that after all the campaign contributions they gave to Obama that his administration was using Wall Street as a piñata to reflect public outrage at bankers. A pox on both of their houses Gasparino seems to be implying, but as we all know, the recent crisis is petering out and the reforms that were supposed to prevent another crisis like the one we just went through never materialized, and therefore we can expect the round trips between Washington and Wall Street to continue.
