Defunding Obama’s Union Led Regulatory Army

You might recall that with great fanfare and the slobberingly positive coverage by the Old Media, President Obama made Reagan-like and claimed that he thought it was time to get rid of the regulations strangling American business.

Unions Realizing They Have Bad Reputation, Launch PR Campaign

One of Obama’s Biggest Donors Now His ‘Economics Adviser’

Last week President Obama appointed the CEO of General Electric, Jeffery Immelt, to head up his Economic Advisory Board.
