Yah... given the timing (just as they're handing out still more vast sums of freshly printed money to the banks), this feels a lot like "pandering to the base," i.e. trying to distract a lot of folks on the left who voted for Mr. Obama under the impression that he was some sort of progressive, rather than yet another center-right politician who's owned by Wall Street.
As Speaker Pelosi's comments make clear, Democrats in Congress DO realize that this is a non-starter.
Emails sent, anyway, to the nice folks in D.C....
