Insult to Injury

Remember him come November

Today, our smug President, surrounded by his dutiful minions from Congress, signed into law a leviathan, disastrous bill that will further regulate the markets and financial industries to the hilt. (The sickening, twilight zone-ish part of the bill is that it was shrewdly crafted by the same two culprits who are more responsible for the financial crisis than anyone else: Barney Frank and Chris Dodd. These two men did more to prop up and shield Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac than anyone, and now they are lauded as selfless, pure legislative sages. They should be driven out of office. It is totally insane and nauseating.)

Obama signed this toxic piece of legislative flotsam in the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington. Don't think for a moment that the selection of this location for the elaborate signing ceremony wasn't an intentional move, a firm slap in the face to Republicans.

Obama's ONE overarching goal as president, beyond anything relating to foreign policy, to wars, to nuclear threats, to rouge nations, oil spills, endless White House galas, etc., is to UNDO Ronald Reagan's domestic legacy forever. And what is that legacy? Free markets and deregulation, a belief in hard work, rewards and incentives, independence, freedom from Big Brother. In other words, THE CONSTITUTION.
