I have no clue to the Wht House's feelings
The big question remains ...... what will the Wht House say about Occupy Wall Street if it continues into 2012? Will Obama give them a thumbs up for their freedom of speech and effort to remove corruption out of DC and Wall Street? Will he blame them for causing additional problems with the nation's struggle? Will the Wht House/Obama not say one word about this?

INSANITY IS NOT A PLEA. IT'S A WAY OF LIFE.
Some hearty knaves and simple fools,
Some apish and pragmatic mules,
Some servile acquiescing fools,
These, these comprise a congress.
When Jove resolved to send a curse,
And all the woes of life rehearse,
Not plague, not famine, but much worse,
He cursed us with a congress.

Obama said demonstrators protesting against Wall Street and economic inequality are expressing the frustrations of the American public. He explained that he understands the public's concerns about how the nation's financial system works and said Americans see Wall Street as an example of the financial industry not always following the rules.
However, the president asserted that the U.S. must have a strong and effective financial sector for the economy to grow. He argued that the financial regulation bill he championed is designed to make sure there is tougher oversight of the financial industry.

Obama Signs Financial-Regulation Bill
By VICTORIA MCGRANE

WASHINGTON—President Barack Obama on Wednesday signed into law the most sweeping overhaul of U.S. financial-market regulations since the Great Depression, marking the conclusion of an effort to craft a legislative response to the 2008 financial crisis.
Mr. Obama pitched the measure as a major step toward correcting the problems that contributed to that crisis and the recession that followed.
The wide-ranging law will touch every corner of the financial universe, curtailing certain risky activities of the nation's largest financial firms, affecting how average Americans obtain credit cards and mortgages, and transforming the way regulators work to assess and respond to potential flash points in the economy.
I watched Spitzer on Countdown last night his support for the protesters of Occupy Wall Street .... and here, in print, he calls on Obama to do the same. So, that tells me that according to Spitzer, Obama hasn't yet given his vocal support, and, or thumbs up to this movement.

The Dem Party needs to embrace OWS. It's a matter of principle. Obama refused to put on his walking shoes (as promised) with the Dem base if they showed up in the streets. Now, he and all the Dems running for office in 2012 needs to show that very same base that he's on board with their demonstrations if he wants that base to vote for him in 2012. Either you're with your base or or not. It's as simple as that.

Obama, Congressional Leaders Must Meet With Occupy Wall Street Leaders
Thus far, only President Obama has made reference in his public speeches to the complaints, disparate as they may seem, of this growing number of discontented people who have launched rallies in at least 19 major cities.
Surely, it’s time for the nation’s leaders to meet with the Occupy Wall Street protesters and publicly address their grievances. The country’s decision makers, most notably those in Congress, can’t simply watch idly by and wish them away, as they appear to be doing.

Then they need to be the ones who takes the lead in this and make proper change ... no?
