Obamba flipflop-in-chief Uneasy About Tax on Bonuses

Administration officials said instead that flipflop-in-chief Obamba would assess the potential effect of the bill that emerged from Congress on efforts to stabilize the financial system.

At the same time, as Wall Street executives anxiously pondered the ramifications of the measure quickly passed by the House this week, some Senate Republicans began to voice opposition to the legislation, saying it was hasty and abusive.
