“While I am disappointed that Bush gave them additional bail out money yesterday, I think he just wanted the “path of least resistance” in his last days.”
No. I think he is giving us a final, glaring display of his economic ignorance and lack of respect for the entreprenauristic spirit that built this country, and the tax payers who’ve footed the bill for his folly.
Who was the American Officer in Vietnam that declared that,"I destroyed the village in order to save it"? No it wasn't GWB but could have been.
Personally, I think it was trusting the enemy (socialists) that led him to this dark place. The socialists have a vested interest in putting the country and world in as disastrous economic straits as they can. The worse it gets, the louder the people will demand socialism (even communism) to “save the world.”
Perhaps, now he finally sees the utter darkness and is just trying to do what he can, knowing that it is going to fail in the end, but trying to soften the fall a bit. No one can print as much money as our government (both Dems and Reps) has over the past year and a half without being aware of the huge bill that will come due very soon.
My fear is that Obammie the Commie and his shadow supporters (Soros, et al.) are licking their chops hoping that the country completely tanks so that he can seize fascistic rule.
