Wall Street Buys Enough Dems To Stall Financial Reform

by Deacon Blues

Wall Street flexed its muscle today and steamrollered Barney Frank into delaying a vote on passing the Consumer Financial Product Safety Commission until September, when Wall Street and the rest of Corporate America hope to kill the commission proposal.

When Wall Street kills off this and health care reform later this year, voters in 2010 will rightly ask what the hell good is Democratic control of Congress when the party and its alleged "centrists" can be bought just as easily as Republicans.
