Who said "I believe in free enterprise! As long as I can regulate it."?
Here's a clue, he said it about 10 minutes ago.
He also made such inane comments as the people can only succeed if they work "through" government.

I listened to President Obama's speech and though that he was right on target. Think of it this way, how much does regulation hamper sports like football or the olympic games? A football team wins by playing a good game of ball,not by cheating, and the referees and rulebooks are there to make sure everyone plays fair.
Regulation is intended to keep the playing field level so that businesses can thrive when competing within the rules, and consumers are protected from unscrupulous practices. The free market also needs a good rulebook and referees to keep things honest.

I'm assuming that since it just happened that it was during another episode of The Obama Show and could it be that the all knowing Mr. Obama said it or possibly Bawney Fwank?

Regulations against fraud and theft are no problem, it's when regulations start hampering the market that it becomes a problem, and it's no longer a free market.
