This should come as no surprise, of course, but the Environmental Protection Agency has announced it will delay implementing a tighter rule on industrial emissions.
To you "My Democrats right or wrong" types — It's like "enabling" an alcoholic, especially one who doesn't want to stop quaffing from the right-hand side of the neoliberal cup of wine, or stop doing the neoliberal shuffle. Until the Democratic Party is punished in general elections for nominating people like him, nothing will change.
Nothing.
Obama will NOT rescind Bush tax cuts if re-elected. He will NOT speed up EPA rule m aking.
And, even before re-election, he won't get tough on the banksters. He won't propose REAL mortgage relief. He won't come up with new worker-friendly ideas to help the economy. Etc., etc.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
