I didn't write the blogpost, but he does a pretty extensive description of "the rest of the story".
And qualify it however much you want -- they all did support TARP.
Well, it needs to be qualified. There was TARP1, TARP2, and TARPx. If you or anyone else cannot distinguish between them, then it betrays a fundamental failure to understand the issue.
Even Rick Santelli's rant on CNBC was (largely) about one of Obama's mortgage plans . . . not about any of the TARPs as has become to be the conventional wisdom.
TARP worked. The banking system didn't collapse and the banks paid back the loans. With interest, at a profit to the Treasury.
