Speech Therapy For Partisans
Back in 2003, folks, President Bush proposed sweeping reforms of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. THAT is a fact. It is also a fact that he was opposed vociferously - not only by interest groups but by the United States Congress as well (yes, mostly by Democrats under Barney Frank but also by Republicans). I frankly (no pun intended) don't understand the massive confusion here...............................................................And it's not like I'm saying that Bush was a great president or anything. He and the Republicans inordinately messed up a lot of things; foreign policy, Katrina, the budget deficit, etc.. But, come on here people! Even a broken clock is right twice a day. And in this instance, Bush, the broken clock, WAS RIGHT....and the Democrats were wrong. I mean, seriously, why is that so hard for certain people to say? Bush....was....right.

Hatred maybe?
And, no, I'm not saying that Barney Frank is the number one person responsible for the financial crisis. I don't even know if he's in the top ten (Christopher Cox and Franklin Raines probably top the list). But, come on. Let's be real here. And in in an era where we're pissing all over Jim Cramer for his shaky prognostications, to let this guy slide is unconscionable.
