When Bill Clinton left office, he left a burgeoning recession on George W. Bush's doorstep. That wasn't the only thing he left Bush. He left Bush Osama Bin Laden. Clinton has openly boasted that he could have killed Bin Laden and chose not to try. In fact, Clinton had numerous opportunities to kill Bin Laden. But there's more. Under Bush Bill Clinton buried an IED. The IED was a house of cards built upon lousy mortgages and trash securities sold as high value. And it was all legal, thanks to Bill Clinton.
Clinton pushed Fannie to 51% subprimes, made predatory lending legal and coerced bankers to make bad loans. Worst of all, bowing to Wall St. he opted not to regulate derivatives on the advice from his Wall St. pal Robert Rubin. That house of cards finally fell in 2007 when the economy slowed and people began to default on their mortgages. People still blame Bush,but it was Clinton buried the IED in 1998. Let us be certain that this is the cause of the financial crisis as even Barack Obama agrees:
“Food stamp recipients didn’t cause the financial crisis; recklessness on Wall Street did,”Recklessness, all legal, courtesy of Bill Clinton.
Leaving disasters for upcoming Presidents seems to have become a democrat tradition and Barack Obama is the new standard bearer.
Obama badly misjudged ISIS, a mess which he is leaving for the next President. In 2014 Obama announced that he had a "three year" plan to defeat ISIS, which would put the conclusion well after his departure from office ( so don't blame me!).
Vladimir Putin is toying with Obama as a kitten would toy with a mouse. Russia routinely engages in high risk maneuvers near US ships and aircraft and Obama has nothing to say save for "excuse me sir may I have another?" as he runs out the clock to 2017.

Trump’s use to turning bad deals into good ones. And their will be repercussions. Obama may have to end up moving to Qatar.
“”” Clinton pushed Fannie to 51% subprimes, made predatory lending legal and coerced bankers to make bad loans. Worst of all, bowing to Wall St. he opted not to regulate derivatives on the advice from his Wall St. pal Robert Rubin. “”
And Bush pushed them to 54% and never lifted a finger till it was too late.
Let me guess...
CRA loans to folks who can’t afford them, bundling bad loans with a few good ones and selling them to fools, and Dodd-Frank? I should add QE?
Mark my words.
Bush had 7 1/2 years to do something about whatever “IED” the Clinton administration may have left behind before the global economic crisis hit.
We expect no less from low-life, narcissist, POS!
obama IS NOT FOR THE AMERICAN PEOPLE and THEIR SAFETY AND WELFARE. PROVEN FACT!
“And Bush pushed them to 54% and never lifted a finger till it was too late.”
Actually Bush did lift a finger. He appointed the Chairman of Goldman Sachs, and head of the Wall Street “too big to fail” banking cartel, Henry Paulson, to be Secretary of the Treasury. Then when the financial crisis hit, instead of taking charge, he abdicated to Henry Paulson, Ben Bernancke, and Timothy Geithner. The three banking stooges immediately raided the treasury giving billion in bailout money, printed by the Federal Reserve out of thin air, to the big foreign and domestic banks while leaving the taxpayer holding the bag. They then insisted Bush and Congress pass TARP which consisted of nearly a trillion dollar bailout of the banking system. Then Bush decided to us TARP money to bail out GM and Chrysler, even though the legislation did not provide for such a bailout.
Bush lifted a finger once - to put the fox in charge of the hen house. Then when the chickens started squawking, he turned his back and walked away.
Worst of all, Clinton opted not to regulate derivatives
on the advice from his Wall St. pal Robert Rubin.
Obama is there to stir up division in the country and to take advantage of the many perks of the office. That’s all. Anything that he can push back to W or forward to his successor, he will.
Vladimir Putin is toying with Obama as a kitten would toy with a mouse
I’m not so sure.
Baraq is just a figurehead.
In a death match between Putie and ValJ it’s a tossup.
Leaving disasters for upcoming Presidents seems to have become a democrat tradition and Barack Obama is the new standard bearer.
Jeb! and the Bush Crime Family — the inside story of an American dynasty
This expose made me madder than hell because I fell for lies and believed the Bush's were genuine patriotic heros. Man, was I ever wrong.
I have no doubt you are right.
Not true. Bush sounded the warning. And was ignored.
“””Not true. Bush sounded the warning. And was ignored.”””
Did you know that Bush wanted congress to give $200 million to provide down payments to “low income” buyers including illegals?
Bush was just as bad as Clinton in using the housing industry to bolster the the economy and sell out the American people.
He argued against Reaganomics to Congress in 1991 which lead to what?
“The House Task Force on Urgent Fiscal Issues met on November 21, 1991 to discuss the credit shortage in the U.S. and whether it is stifling America’s economic recovery.”

DT talked about loosening credit for businesses. Um, what did hildabeast teach DT? One of the links from the article:
Hillary: Big banks paid me zillions of dollars to hear about my role in the Bin Laden raid
“She’s already been collecting and she owes them big. Hillary Clinton is irrevocably inter meshed with Goldman Sachs:
That will change if Clinton decides to run. For starters, as the former U.S. senator from New York, she is well known to many of Goldman’s leaders. They have seen her at numerous Goldman events over the years or at fundraisers in the Hamptons. Blankfein ran into the Clintons in August at a party in the Hamptons at Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein’s house, and there are the many pictures of Blankfein smiling broadly at her side during September’s Clinton Global Initiative in New York. A few weeks later, they spent time together at a dinner celebrating the Goldman Sachs “10,000 Women Initiative,” a Goldman-funded training and education program for female entrepreneurs.
Bill Clinton was led by the nose by Robert Rubin, the Goldman Sachs alum who convinced Clinton not to regulate derivatives, which was the linchpin of the financial crisis. When it came time for real Wall St. reforms, Clilnton stayed mostly mum:
She’s been fairly cagey about this issue, eager to assuage both sides. Where Obama blamed Wall Street—not inaccurately—for behavior that caused the 2008 financial crisis and championed new Wall Street regulations like the Volcker Rule and the 2010 Dodd-Frank law that really stick in the craw of money men—all while presiding over a veritable profit boon for the financial industry—Clinton said hardly a word on the topic of Wall Street shenanigans.”
Not Cruz’s single loan, but DT’s...investment in Goldman...
While I’m at it I did a little research into DT’s investments...
Title:Study: Trump investments underperformed in 2015
“Trump also argued that several of his individual stock picks, like Apple and Goldman Sachs, have done very well for him.
“I hit the market exactly perfectly,” he said.”

Title:Know Who Else Has Received Loans from Citibank and Goldman Sachs? Donald Trump.
“He’s made the nonsensical claim repeatedly that Ted Cruz can’t “protect people” from Citibank or Goldman Sachs or whoever, because he has taken out loans from them or personally guaranteed loans to his campaign from them.”
“As for Goldman Sachs, Trump is himself a shareholder in Goldman Sachs, which means he has a direct financial interest in its success. One would think that would make Trump even less enthusiastic about protecting me from Goldman Sachs (whatever that means) than Cruz would.”
[DT is super owned by the banks. In fact I think his fear of losing everything is the biggest motivations for running]
Obama is like the vagrant bum how sh##s all over the toilet floor when he could have used the toilet just on spite, this is what he is all about and will be leaving Trump
