There is an air about Obama that suggests that, almost in some martyred fashion, he took Murdoch’s advice quite seriously: If he only had 18 months then he would do what he judged to be of greatest importance, and let the chips fall where they may. Obama’s choices were a healthcare bill, a massive economic bailout (TARP), and financial reform.

TARP was passed before Obama took office.

TARP was passed with Republican votes and signed by a Republican president. They cannot evade responsibility for this disastrous bill, the template for Obanomics and equal to McCain-Feingold as the worst bill enacted in my lifetime.

And there were a goodly number of Goldman Sachs arse lickers here on FR who supported it too.....
