You know your Bush comment is interesting as I can see how many would think he alone attacked other countries after 4 planes were flown into our Buildings killing about 3000.00 people! What I dont get is why you and so many others feel our Congress is so irrelavant! Why are you content to let these congressional assholes off the hook? Why not hold Congress Accountable for all of this crap they legislated regulate and execute all of our laws. Barney Frank and his frickin community reinvestment program alone should be prosecuted. But instead you guys focus on Bush! Whatever Bush Did he did with the Support of a largly Democratic Congress, Obama, Hillary Nancy, Harry, Chris and countless others not objecting much to anything!
And make the Fed pay for keeping rates way too low for way too long? And make Barney Frank & Co. pay for completely ignoring dire warnings about Fannie and Freddie? And make many in the Clinton administration pay for forcing ridiculous lending practices in the name of "home ownership" for everyone and political correctness? The banks couldn't have done any of this without the enablers, who should really be the ones to pay. But given their connections in the Obama administration, don't expect that.
"Bush Neocons"! According to anybody including our Congress Bush was inept and incompetant but he was competant enough to persuade the United States Congress that there was an axis of evil and those legislators went along with it and approved billions of dollars for an invasion that was all a pile of crud! Some of you people read too many comic books and listen to msnbc and are probably never held accountable for anything! The U.S. Congress is to blame for many of our finacial woes today. Goldman Sacs and the others are just what the us congress is supposed to be watching our for; greed and abuse of our democratic values. unethical behavior cant be checked if the checkers dont know what unethical behavior consists of ! I must have had a bad day!Volatility causes alot of problems
