he likes the profits of capitalism but doesn’t like the losses.
Well done Bush, just before the end of your term, you’ve managed to utter the dumbest quote of your Presidency. This will hang with you like Clinton’s “I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Ms. Lewinsky” and Bush Sr’s “Read my lips, no new taxes.”
RE :he likes the profits of capitalism but doesn’t like the losses
He wanted to take credit for the economic boom and homeownership (which spread democrats out) but cant take the bust and at least wants it to be said that “he tried to do something to fix it” in the history books. And there are a number of ‘to the death’ W followers here that buy this, everything good is because of GWB (tax cuts, WOT) and everything bad, (housing bust, deficits) is someone elses fault.
