At a whopping 2,300 pages, the legislation is designed to rein in big banks and protect consumers in hopes of averting a repeat of the 2008 financial crisis. Its ultimate impact, however, will depend on the government regulators assigned to implement it.
Another monster, phone book-sized bill we "needed to pass to see what's in it" and "how it works."

The headline is completely false. No bill has been sent to 0bama. The Senate merely voted to end debate. I’m not saying it won’t happen. It’s just false to say it has.

I will be so happy to see this pack of Democrats with their mad mega-bills voted out.
But I doubt we will ever be fix even a small portion of the craziness that they have managed to pass since January 2009. The massive damage that the Democrats have done to this country in just those 18 months is likely immeasurable and immitigable.

We are getting Communism via regulation. It’s two steps forward, and another step forward. When these creeps are done, China will be a freer place to live.

The fact that this is Barney Frank's work makes this extra sickening.
My skin crawls at the thought.

I’m sure Goldman Sachs put lots of exemptions for themselves in the bill. They probably wrote it.

Naturally, Obama will wait five days before signing the bill so that the American people can have a chance to review it.
