What was it Citi or BofA’s CFO said in thier conference call the other day? CRA loans were 7% of the portfolio but accounted for 24% of their losses. That’s what they already wrote off, it’s not counting what’s in default

I know this. I did my own research. But...the liberals I talk with when I point this out just shut down their brains.

It is important to them that it is BUSH’s fault. Truth never matters to a liberal.

“THROW THESE IDIOTS OUT IN 2010-IF WE STILL EVEN HAVE ELECTIONS THEN!”

These “idiots” are nothing but a reflection of the people who elected them. (unfortunately)

IMHO

You can't say it enough. The people who precipitated the thing are nothing short of criminals and any one who supports what they did and apologizes for them in any way, is also a criminal.

If you pulled one tenth a stunt like that you’d be in slam so fast it would make your head spin and these creeps not only get off free but are actually deferred to or appointed to ‘investigate’ the problem. Is the world turned upside down?

Well, ripley..., you said — These “idiots” are nothing but a reflection of the people who elected them. (unfortunately)

And *that* is the core and underlying problem. No matter what you may say about everything else in the political world — if you don’t solve *this particular problem* — we’ll get nowhere.

This — is — the core problem to solve...

>>>THROW THESE IDIOTS OUT IN 2010

>>>This video clearly shows that George Bush warned Congress starting in 2001 that this economic crisis was coming if something was not done. But Congress refused to listen

And who controlled the Congress in 2001?

While I agree with all that you cite the straw that broke the camel’s back was the price of oil. A whole lot of people were barely living in the margin, living paycheck to paycheck and when the price of oil soared and other prices followed, their lifestyle could no longer be sustained. They maxed out their credit and reality slammed them in the face and they stopped spending with the regularity that they had done before.

Yep. I HATE the fact that the very politicians who had a large part in creating this mess are STILL in power and even pontificating about how WE have to sacrifice to repair it. Absolutly sickening. I now fully understand the visceral underpinnng of events like the Boston Tea Party, US Revolution, French Revolution, tarring and feathering, etc.

I thought we were “citizens”? You act like an American.

There are some things that should be posted and repeatedly. Not everyone can have their interest piqued to read something until it has brought up enough.

Thanks for the re-post
