Next US Government Priority - Overhaul Financial Regulations


WASHINGTON — Buoyed by passage of landmark health care legislation, the Obama administration and Democrats in Congress said Wednesday that an overhaul of financial regulations was the next legislative priority. The legislation appeared to be gaining momentum, as two crucial Republicans on the Senate Banking Committee, Judd Gregg of New Hampshire and Bob Corker of Tennessee, said they expected the overhaul to pass this year even though they had concerns about some of its provisions. http://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/25/business/25regulate.html?nl=us&emc=politicsemailema1

Doesn't Republican leadership strategy remind you of "Road Runner and Coyote"?

In their dream, hopefully not the final episode http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vj3uMTwqtTU&feature=related

More like the backlash nightmare episode http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hz65AOjabtM

Meantime..........Greetings from the party of NO, Senate Republicans Block health care hearings. "For the second consecutive day, Senate Republicans angry over the health care legislation blocked Senate committees from meeting on Wednesday, including an Armed Services Committee session that top officers stationed in Hawaii and Korea had traveled to Washington to attend. Showing their pique over the Senate’s plunging ahead with an expedited process to consider changes in the newly enacted health care law, Senate Republicans refused to allow panels to meet after 2 p.m." http://thecaucus.blogs.nytimes.com/2010/03/24/senate-republicans-block-hearings/?nl=us&emc=politicsemailema3
