This story is offensive. The SEC passed a rule banning campaign contributions by financial services employees to sitting governors.
Ostensibly, the rule prevents banks from unduly influencing State governments. However, this rule prevents Rick Perry and other governors from getting money from banks, the #1 source of campaign funds.
This law doesn't prevent campaign donations to the President, only governors. Literally, the President passed a law saying "It's illegal to donate money to my competitors." WTF? Isn't the corruption getting too flagrant?
Technically, the rule was passed by the SEC and not the President. You can be sure the President approved of the rule. He probably could overturn it if he wanted to.
It's pretty flagrant, that the SEC passed a rule that so blatantly favors the President.

FSK - You perceive correctly. The corruption is becoming like peanut butter on a bar stool - stunningly
suspicious. A better analogy:
It's like calling the blatent lie an excuse. Of course that is like a hot dog - a skin of a reason.... stuffed with a lie.
