4 Bush anti-worker decrees erased

The past 9 days haven't been happy ones in conservaland.

Now President Obama has just announced plans to reverse 4 more of Bush's illegal diktats - this time regarding workplace rules.

One of them is Bush's fiat that directed unionized companies to post signs informing workers that they could decertify the union. Not only was this order illegal on the grounds that Bush had no authority to issue it. It was also patently unfair, as nonunion shops weren't required to post signs telling workers they could unionize.

But don't think Obama's work is done just because he's spent 9 days reversing some of Bush's edicts. He also has the Contract With America mess to clean up, and when he's done with that, he has to fix what Mad Dog and Rappin' Ronnie broke (because Clinton didn't fix it).

I know I sound like a parent lecturing a teenager, but we can't clean up 8 years of vomit only to let the previous 20 years continue to stink up the joint.
