A good sign of were Obama’s loyalities lie

By way of Michelle Malkin, Philip Klein at the American Spectator points out a very telling item in the very small number of actual budget cuts our Dear Leader has made.

…buried in the budget documents released by the White House today is a 9 percent cut in the unit of the Department of Labor that is in charge of regulating unions.
Under the leadership of Elaine Chao during the Bush administration, the Labor Department’s Office of Labor-Management Standards took its job of policing unions seriously. Its actions led to 929 convictions of corrupt union officials and to the recovery of more than $93 million on behalf of union members. Yet the Obama administration has proposed slashing its budget from $45 million in 2009 to $41 million in 2010, citing an insufficient “workload” for the office.
Instead of using the money to make sure unions play by the rules, the Obama administration proposes shifting resources to the department’s Wage and Hour Division, Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs, and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration — all areas of the agency focused on regulating businesses.

What’s clear here is that this is another political payback for massive campaign donations to the democrat party and BHO.
Given more tax payer money for “regulation” of business by the federal government is just another anti-economy bonus for Team Lightbringer.
