This morning, the White House announces, on the front page of the Times and elsewhere, that it's headed for open conflict with the banks.

A few hours later, the Supreme Court rules that the banks can spend their money for the first time in decades campaigning against him and his candidates.




It's a pretty screwed up country we live in that in November banks will be running ads against Democrats who voted to regulate them, using the money the banks were bailed out with, convincing people that are angry about bailouts and corporate control of government to vote against the "communist" Democrats.
