'Save' us from the evils of capitalism

And the class war continues.

Obama and the Democrats strike a deal with Big Labor to exempt these unions - huge contributors to Democrats, by the way, - from the tax on "Cadillac" health plans.

This happened on the same day that Obama announced the Financial Crisis Responsibility Fee to be levied on Big Banks.

But what about Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac? These two organizations, with the enthusiastic complicity of the likes of Chris Dodd and Barney Frank, caused more than their share of this crisis.

And how come there is no "responsibility fee" on GM and Chrysler, also major contributors to the financial crisis? Oh, I forgot, those two companies are now owned and run by the federal government and the UAW. And the UAW is a huge reason for the financial mess in which these companies find themselves today.

I guess we shouldn't be surprised. Obama and his cronies hate big business and will do anything they can to bring it to its knees and swoop in as the "white knight" to "save" us from the evils of capitalism.
