ObamaNation surrenders America's economic independence

While the "mainstream" media would have ye socks focusing on the glamour battle between the first ladies, the true focus should have been on what their husbands were doing.

It wasn't good. Well, not if you believe in American independence.

Our illustrious new leader surrendered a significant piece of our sovereignty in London yesterday. Henceforth, the components of our economic engine (including the SEC, the Commodities Trading Commission, and the Federal Reserve Board) will now be subject to the oversight and coordination efforts of a new international junta: The Financial Stability Board.

Why isn't that making the headlines?!

Instead of self-determination, we will let other people overseas tell us what we should do. I'm sure they'll act in our best interest. At least, I hope they will. After all, the US will only have 1 vote on the board. Despite the fact that our economy is three times larger than #2 Japan, our voice will have exactly the same weight. In fact, half of the seats on the board will belong to European nations where socialism reigns supreme.

If Obama wanted to give away that much of our sovereignty to Europe, why didn't he just petition for membership in the EU?!

This is an outrage, an affront to every freedom-loving American.

And, that should be the topic du jour, not what some would-be fashionista is wearing or who she is inappropriately touching.
