BILL CLINTON signed the 1999 banking deregulation bill. He could have vetoed it. But he didn''t.

CLINTON IS TO BLAME
BUSH IS TO BLAME
CLINTON IS TO BLAME
BUSH IS TO BLAME

You can''t have one without the other.

Yes why didnt the democrat congress take action back in 2001? Its because they wanted to make Pesident Bush look bad. The liberals are worse than the terorists IMHO!

Hey there oh brightest one, in 2001 the republicans were in charge of conngress.You can call your fellow americans terrorists ,but you cant change the fact republicans ran the congress from 1994 till Jan 2007.The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over(voting republican) and expecting different results.

The only people to profit from this bail out is the CEO''s, Board of Directors and stockholders. Bush always takes care of his cronies.

[The sad thing here is that the Democrats are secretely celebrating this crisis because it makes the Bush administration look bad ... This is in spite of the fact that both McCain and Bush have been calling on congress to take action on this issue since 2001. Both dems and republican in the do nothing congress are too blame for this crisis.]

yea ... they''ve been calling for fixing it since 2001. post your link showing this to be true. the whole federal govt was controlled by republicans in 2001 ... and 2002 ... and 2003 ... and 2004 ... and 2005 ... and 2006.

is this why gwb touted ''record home ownership'' repeatedly during the last seven years as proof of a good economy?

was he and mccain ''secretely'' wanting to change what they were in fact taking credit for?

[ahhhhhhhaaaa]

Dont worry Americans George W. Bush has heard your pleas and is working on a plan with congress to get us out of this financial mess that Bill Clinton put us in. It took George Bush 8 years to get us out of the mess that Bill put us in and he''''s almost done! The economy will be fine by the time that George gets out of office. George did the right thing by removing those harsh laws that kept big companies from making the tons of money that they are making now. George Bush has always championed the rights of the poor and fought against the fat cats in washington. He has freed Iraq and is currently working on freeing afghanistan. George is the best president ever he balanced our budget and our troops couldnt be more proud then to have George Bush as commander and chief. I think that George Bush should be president another 8 years before Barack or Mc Cain get in washington and mess up the great job that George did over the past 8 years. Dont forget the no child left behind act which is helping millions of children and George Bush is only one standing up to the fat cats in washington. I wonder if there is way to get him elected another 8 years, this country sure needs him now more than ever! The poor has always supported George Bush because he protects the little guy, the underdog and we love him for that. He always put the american people before himself and his family!!! There ought to be some way that the american people can show some gratitude as hard as George works for us.

The sad thing here is that the Democrats are secretely celebrating this crisis because it makes the Bush administration look bad. It helps only the dems and their Neomessiah Obamahood. This is in spite of the fact that both McCain and Bush have been calling on congress to take action on this issue since 2001. Both dems and republican in the do nothing congress are too blame for this crisis.

==============

just another twist it back on and blame the dems for what 8 years of bushcheney has done

oh yes and a congress (the democrat part) that was so afraid of seeming unpatriotic that they meekly went along (with a little verbal protest of course) with nearly everything bushcheney (conjoined) tried to do.

bush got anything he wanted
except a couple of biggies like social security.
btw
how would you feel now if they''d have tied social security in with wall street? huh?

huh??
