We are sorry the press has been quiet at Obamulist over the last few weeks. We have been working hard on our stealth mode finance startup, hedgeable.com, scheduled to launch September 15, the one year anniversary of the Lehman Brothers Collapse. Thank you to all our readers for understanding.

Treasury Secretary Geithner is pushing to regulate all venture capital firms as registered investment advisors with the SEC. For all intents and purposes, the government is lumping VC firms with those financial organizations responsible for destabilizing the financial system. The problem is that VCs had nothing to do with the economic meltdown. They don’t use [...]

An adviser to Treasury Secretary Geithner, Gene Sperling, stated in prepared testimony this morning that compensation practices “must be better aligned with long-term value and prudent risk management at all firms, and not just for the financial services industry.“ “Not just for the financial services industry” is the key phrase in this sentence. We totally [...]

I wish Neil Cavuto would take all of his “common sense” articles and package them up into one of those desk calendars that you flip through each day. Many times they are the only things, well, that make actual sense on TV. In his latest diatribe, the omnipotent one finally has the balls to say [...]

In an interview published Saturday in the New York Times Magazine, President Obama said the following about the economy: What I think will change, what I think was an aberration, was a situation where corporate profits in the financial sector were such a heavy part of our overall profitability over the last decade…Wall Street will [...]

George Soros, the billionaire hedge fund manager who is responsible for moveon.org, and consequently single handily funding the democratic party and the Obama machine, made $1.1 billion last year. Ironic, isn’t it? Obama, who should be called the “hedgie president” because he has been bankrolled by so many hedge fund managers (we know, we are [...]

Thought provoking piece in Bloomberg today…but we have a question, if Obama is a Manchurian candidate, then who is the Conservative’s Frank Sinatra? Bobby Jindal singing “I Left My Heart in San Francisco”, now that would be classic… And speaking of San Francisco, Nancy Pelosi playing the Angela Lansbury character, anyone? http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601039&refer=columnist_hassett&sid=amhpOT5rlR1Y

The current parallels between America and Latin America are striking. It used to be said that Latin America was a U.S. Lake, but it seems like now, we are swimming in it! If we are going to be like Latin America, maybe we can import some more of their beautiful women and great food to at [...]

I hate to say this, but we actually agree with most of Cramer’s analysis today. Once again, we must point out, Cramer is a person we like, because like us, he does not put ideology ahead of what is rational and what is right- President Obama’s team, unlike Bush’s team, demonstrates a thinness of skin [...]

2009-2020 will most surely go down in history as the age of ideologues taking over America. I would have included 2000-2008 into that range, but I am really not sure of the ideology of the Bush Administration, one minute they were conservative- taxes, post 9/11, the next they are liberal- out of control spending, No [...]
