Obama Signs Law Gutting Insider Trading Regulations For Congress

President Obama quietly signed legislation Monday that rolled back a provision of the STOCK Act that required high-ranking federal employees to disclose their financial information online.

The White House announced Monday that the president had signed S. 716, which repealed a requirement of the Stop Trading on Congressional Knowledge (STOCK) Act requiring the disclosure, which had previously been delayed several times by Congress.

So the president (may god bless his wisdom) signed a law 2 days ago that repealed his previous law stopping congress, presidents & senators from insider trading.

Something else happened that is a 'miracle in Wash. DC'

Both chambers of Congress quickly — and near silently — approved the repeal legislation at the end of last week by unanimous consent, just before heading home to their districts.

These people can't pass a budget, yet they unanimously, in both houses mind you, vote to allow themselves back in the insider trading racket.

This is a first in history where each and every single one of them were on the same page!

Don't let ANY tragedy go to waste!

We know how they roll....

its democracy

obamas learning the language of the senate... learning how to work the opposition

i think hes accepted that some things are just americas traditions, ie legacy rights. and its a culture.

though insider trading and government contracts etc... well this is where corruption and the growth index go to dine

lol

peace... its all blessed

Ahhh so refreshing to see some concise action, its a treat to watch
them lie cheat and steal, they are really honing their craft, there again
with that much practice i suppose it would be tough not to be good
at it by now, this makes me sick. no, disgusted, just flat out disgusted.

between that insider trading thing and the ricin letters
I think its safe to say congress is under control
watch for the guna and rights loss agendas to be advanced

You know, with all this crap that is going on I had a moment of clarity.

If the government can govern only WITH the CONSENT of the governed, what do I have to do to remove said consent?

I wonder....
