Can anyone explain this?

Hoping to kick-start the legislation, Mr. Obama said: “I want them to hear my words. We will not go back to the days of reckless behavior and unchecked excess at the heart of this crisis, where too many were motivated only by the appetite for quick kills and bloated bonuses.”

And how this doesn't apply to Fannie Mae? Or Congressional plans to "Rahm" it through?

And yeah - it is hard to know what you're protesting against when the bills are 1500 pages and growing, and only doublespeak is used to explain them.

Or this one:

He also warned that “those on Wall Street cannot resume taking risks without regard for consequences, and expect that next time, American taxpayers will be there to break their fall.”

And how we couldn't substitute "Congress" or "the Administration" for "those on Wall Street"?
