I believe they preferred to be called big-boned cats. How rude.

Meh, there really is no conflict of interest anymore. He isn't in office, he holds no position of power....If they want to pay him that much to speak then so be it but its not like that "bribe" will help Wall Street now...What power does Obama have to do anything, anymore?

Agreed, if he was in power and taking that money to do their bidding.....but what can Obama do for them now, directly? they offered him 400k to speak...if he was still in position to create policy and law to help them because of that i would agree....But he isn't...he just took 400k from those idiot to speak.

I think he's just doing this to screw with his detractors now. He doesn't need the money, but he knows nothing makes a republican angrier than a black man being so successful.

He'll probably turn around and donate it to charity.

It's what he says that matters, not how much someone is willing to pay him to talk.

This too....Aside fro the fact that whatever he says has no influence anymore....is he hiding what he said, or will he hide what he said?

It's an American's god given right to make a dollar.

I don't see what the problem is.
