Obama Threatens to Veto Bill that Defunds Wall Street Reform
By Pat Garofalo
House Republicans, after failing to prevent the 2010 Dodd-Frank financial reform law from passing Congress, have attempted to undermine it by refusing to give Wall Street regulators adequate funds to do their jobs. Both the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission are short of the funding they require, and House Republicans recently voted in committee to fund the SEC $245 million below the Obama administration’s request for 2013.
However, should that funding bill actually reach President Obama’s desk, he has announced that he will veto it:
The 2013 Financial Services bill is heading to the House floor after being considered by the Rules Committee on Thursday.
“The bill severely undermines key investments in financial oversight and implementation of Wall Street reform to protect American consumers, as well as needed tax enforcement and taxpayer services. It also hampers effective implementation of the Affordable Care Act (ACA),” the White House statement reads.
House Republicans on the Appropriations Committee also recently approved a cut of $25 million to the CFTC’s budget.
Just ten days ago, the Republican chairman of the House Financial Services Committee admitted that Wall Street regulators do not have the resources necessary to do what Congress has asked of them. However, House Republicans have not acted to rectify the situation, instead bringing to the House floor a bill that would simply exacerbate the problem.

The GOP continues to be more and more pro corruption every day. They aren't interested in making money, taking money is what they are all about. Scandal after scandal without remorse, or any attempt to stop, to punish or to prevent theft, is getting old
Even more repulsive are the tears shed to mourn the lack of removal of all restraints. Rabid dogs, spreading contagion.
The Democratic Party continues to be more and more pro corruption every day. They aren't interested in making money, taking money is what they are all about. Scandal after scandal without remorse, or any attempt to stop, to punish or to prevent theft, is getting old

The evidence (and there is plenty of it) really does fit one better than the other.
And U R supposed to be a Jeffersonian? Where is your rage against the republicons?
Your Mask is slipping RustyButt.

The rage against the Republicans was already posted in the comment I replied to, you moron. Suggest you read it and compare the wording. I was simply making sure your suck buddies at the DNC took it up the ass too.
Where you lying sack of shit? Your comment is in reply to Brightonsage who is rightfully confronting the GOP.
U come back with a rant against the democrats. Yep U R truly a fine Jeffersonian.

You truly are an idiot, DKAtoday. I took his comment, changed "GOP" to "Democratic Party", and reposted the rest verbatim as his accusations applied equally to both parties. You now intentionally try to obfuscate the obvious again with all your copy and paste bullshit. Paste away and be damned, LIAR.
David Bowie- Zeroes
Again just like trashy U complain about things others do that U also do. Copy and paste copy and paste. U lame asshole.
Try berating both at the same time so as not to be misunderstood.
But then the repugs have nothing to lose as they are already in the public eye screaming FUCK YOU PEOPLE. Where as some - many dems are still voting for the public/people. So you try to bring all of the dems down into the mud with the repugs - sorry I don't agree - and your tactics suck.

Starting a bank sounds like an impossible Gilded Age enterprise; more befitting of a Rockefeller than today's small business owner. But it's not as impossible as one might think -- or as risky.
According to Smart Money.com, "the three-year failure rate for new banks is less than one in 1,000," which, compared with a "60 percent failure rate for new restaurants," is not so horrible. The profits are not too shabby either. The site reports: "6,770 community banks earned $67 billion over the past five years."
In a recent Wall Street Journal interview, even Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan says that he would start a bank -- if he were 50 years younger.
So help start a direct democracy bank, as follows:
