Dean Baker: Mr. Happy, Labor Day Edition

But he's got no reason to happy.  Obama's economic team has been a disaster; it was preordained to be a disaster from the way Obama ran his campaign.  Obama made no effort to hide his fealty to the most vile of the establishment scum, like Rahm Emanuel and Larry Summers and Tim Geithner, and the utter failure of Obama's team should come as no surprise.  What is worse than failure, however, is the tragic lack of awareness from these buffoons; they don't even understand how massively they've failed.  Happy Labor Day, assholes.
