Havent they done enough to destroy american business?
The new sheriff attitude makes me sick. Isn't is plainly apparent to most that this is hardly time to make things tougher on American business? Wouldnt the prudent move be to tell the unions that it is hardly the right time to press their agenda when everyone is struggling? That they just have to wait to get their payback? Why does every left wing special interest group have to get the green light on everything on the menu in th Presidents first 60 days? Do these clueless people even bother to see peoples money burning up everytime they make moves like this or say stupid things about banking or others financial issues? You dont have to be a fiscal conservative to wonder what exactly are they thinking?

Labor-union leaders gathered in Florida this week have a lengthy agenda for the Obama administration, including a Labor Department focused on stepped-up enforcement of wage-and-hour and workplace-safety rules.
Vice President Joe Biden and newly appointed Labor Secretary Hilda Solis are scheduled to start outlining President Barack Obama's labor policies during an AFL-CIO executive council meeting this week in Miami. Ms. Solis will join the council again on Tuesday, and Vice President Joe Biden is slated to meet the group Thursday. "There's a new sheriff in town," Ms. Solis told several hundred union members and others filling pews in a church in a working-class neighborhood of Miami on Monday. But Ms. Solis said labor unions need to do more to rally support for legislation that would make it easier for unions to organize -- a proposal business interests strongly oppose. Unions have an ambitious legislative agenda, led by their push for a proposed "Employee Free Choice Act" that would make it easier for unions to organize workers. "The department needs to flip itself over and start looking at the perspective of workers again. It hasn't been working for a long time," said Anna Burger, the International-Secretary-Treasurer for the Service Employees International Union

what they're thinking is that they have to ram through the entire agenda as fast as possible while they have the political capital. there is little concern at all if its good for the country, that isn't what is important to this bunch right now. its a domestic shock and awe campaign.
the plan is to do exactly what Obama said he would do all along, to radically and fundamentally change America and he's using the financial crisis for cover to get the job done. the temporary beneficiaries are unions, those on the receiving end of the massive and unsustainable largess, and those who desire to make-over America into something completely different. I say temporary because all of us will end up losers at the end of the day.
