Applesauce

Some Wall Street insiders are WHINING about President Obama’s proposal to cap the compensation paid to executives at companies receiving federal bailout funds.

If it wasn’t for that darned First Amendment and the free speech rights it affords, we could throw these creeps in jail just for complaining.  That’d be sweet, wouldn’t it?
