Obama Chief of Staff puts a stop to pending Bush regulations
Posted: 07:07 PM ET
From CNN Senior White House Correspondent Ed Henry
President Obama's Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel issued a government-wide directive Tuesday.
WASHINGTON (CNN)– President Obama has wasted no time handling the Bush administration's unfinished business.
White House officials tell CNN Obama Chief Staff of Staff Rahm Emanuel sent a memo Tuesday to all agencies and departments of the federal government. The memo halts further consideration of pending regulations throughout the government until a legal and policy review can be conducted by the Obama administration.
Legal reviews! My goodness, does this mean that somebody might actually consider the law for a change? Be still my beating heart.
I've been laughing all day, and this is just... I love it.
I need a new, HAPPY politics icon.
Thanks,

It's just... I really wish my dad were here to see this. On the one hand, he would have had to suffer through eight years of Bush like the rest of us, and I'm certain he would not have wanted to do that. On the other hand....
I just really wish my father were still alive to see today. He'd be so proud, and so happy. I know it. (And he'd be happy for reasons beyond "OMFG! NO MORE BUSH!" which, really, is half of why we're all so happy and you know it. At this point I'd be happy to have just sworn in a talking frog as president, you know? Though I'm much happier still with the guy I actually wanted in office, of course!)
My father would have been all over this. He would have walked to DC and back just to be there, and that's the truth.
(Can you believe my mother slept through the entire ceremony? She's in California right now, but still! Not to watch or anything at all! Oh well, it's all on youtube.)
