How quaint. The National Review is pretending to be populist.

Would the National Review ever use the "too close to Wall Street" attack against a Republican? Of course not. Because the National Review doesn't think it is possible to be too close to Wall Street.

Why should I click on the link and give them a hit? Tell me what the heck it says.

Times like this make me really miss the unrec button.

This implies that the Democrats are the fully bought and paid for portion of the government. It is the Republicans who are owned by Wall Street outright.

It is just an attempt to place blame for the conservative's failures onto progressives.

So, I suppose the National Review is now throwing its support behind the DEMOCRATIC-controlled Congress' passage of the Financial Reform Law that DEMOCRATIC President Barack Obama signed into law and will oppose further Republican attempts to weaken the law and/or obstruct President Obama's nomination to head the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau that the new law created?



Yeah, didn't think so.
