With help from three Republican senators
who crossed the aisle, the Democrat-controlled
Senate Thursday handed President Obama what
could be regarded as his greatest victory to date --
approving the 2,315-page financial regulatory bill
two weeks after the House had passed the measure.
Titled the Frank-Dodd
Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection act, after Connecticut Sen.
Chris Dodd and Massachusetts Rep.
Barney Frank, the Democratic committee
chairmen who authored the bill, it's intended
to usher in the stiffest regulatory restrictions on
the American economy since the Great Depression.
Although the Democrats hold
a clear majority in the Senate, they
needed a super majority of 60 votes
to overcome a Republican filibuster.
Sen. Robert Byrd's death two weeks ago
left a seat vacant, causing Democrats to
scramble about to make sure they had
the votes needed for passage.
The problem was solved
when Republican Sens. Susan Collins
and Olympia Snowe, both of Maine,
and Sen. Scott Brown of Massachusetts
announced their support for the measure Monday

The left has no desire to defend capitalism,
foster competition, or accomplish their vision
of social justice via private channels.
They have only an insatiable lust for control.
Leftists promote nothing new;
their goals are those of an archaic doctrine.
Forward thinking isn't featured in their agenda,
the purpose of which is to repackage policies that
are proven failures.
"Bolshevik" is more descriptive than "progressive,"
for the left shares the Bolshevik's socialistic dreams.
They are mired in the past,
rendering "progressive" an inappropriate description.
Socialist ideals quickly co-opted the early
Progressive movement, giving the title a black eye.
Leftists then adopted "Liberal,"
a more inviting identifier, but one
that also defies their agenda.
"Liberal" spawns from the Latin "liberalis"
and "liber" meaning noble, generous, and free.
A genuine liberal bristles at authoritarian
attitudes and fulfills the nature of the word.
America's leftists, conversely, are adamant
in their support for a domineering central
government and generous only when
distributing their neighbors' property.
Leftist liberalism defines not
freedom, but the welfare state.
Their concept of liberalism
frees one segment of society
to live at another segment's expense.
Leftists then pat each other on the back
for their thoughtfulness and generosity.
It is indeed a warped vision.
Leftists have moved from Progressives
to Liberals and back to Progressives, but
in name only, never in definition.
Their quasi-metamorphosis
results from their ever-present
collectivist mentality.
Once the public realizes
the agenda behind the name,
the name is changed to obfuscate the agenda
