Wall Street Gives Dingy Harry’s Leash A Tug

Wall Street Gives Dingy Harry’s Leash A Tug — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) was reportedly given a spanking by his masters at Goldman Sachs during a fundraiser in New York.

While the perception is that Wall Street is run by fat conservatives, the truth is that the strings are pulled by extreme social liberals who recognize that there are fortunes to be made working with government and, if done properly from their point of view, government policy can squelch  up-and-coming competition.

They expect to  always have their SUVs and top doctors and think it’s just fine that the rest of us make do with skateboards and overworked nurses.

So when Reid, who is behind in the polls in his re-election bid, tried to whip up some populist sympathy by blaming the nation’s economic problems on the banks and brokers he went a little too far and  had his leash tugged.

Expect Reid and the rest of the Dems to listen. Goldman executives are staunch Dem supporters and gave four times more money to Obama than  to John McCain.

So whatever bill that comes forth giving the government the power to run our banks, expect there to be a paragraph on page 973 or so that lets Goldman and the rest of the politically connected Wall Street Dems to make a bundle.
