Sorry, but it was William Jefferson Clinton who de-regulated the financial institutions...went to congress, negotiated it, signed it, and put it into law. FACT, JACK! - Reply to this comment
- McCain and his buddies deregulated the S&L industry until its collapse in the 80s, the government had to bailout the S&L. Charles Keating, was McCains best friend. McCain lobbied and pressure government regulators not to investigate Keating, and in exchange Keating gave McCain huge contributes, free trips on Keatings private jet to Keatings resort for the McCain family. McCain invested 100s of thousands of dollars into Keatings businees deals. The Keating 5 scandal costed taxpayers nearly $125 billion. Everytime McCain deregulates the taxpayers have to pay for his mistakes. Only this time its $700 billion.....

- As a matter of fact it was Jimmy Carter who de-regulated the airlines and oil pricing before Reagan ever hit the White House...mainly because Carter got his arse in a crack over the oil...so he de-regulated the pricing of it.

g again, "socialists" don''''t deregulate. I voted for Reagan twice and he ran on small government principles, to include deregulation.

Well, evidently you didn''t know what you were doing, or even saying NOW, because Jimmy Socialist Carter is the president who got the de-regulation ball rolling! - Reply to this comment

y one hell of a lot. BUSH still has an approval rating of about 30% which I find absolutely amazing. And with MCCAIN agreeing with BUSH "on every major issue", his words, not mine, I don''''t see how the race is so close.
And if McCAIN was a Democrat or Independent I would still say vote the bums out.

Well, the reason McCain''s doing that is because he knows that 95% of our economy has grown under the Bush administration at the rate of 3.2%...however the 5% of our economy de-regulated by William Jefferson Clinton has now gone BELLY UP! - Reply to this comment
- Doesn''''t matter how we got to deregulation (which by the way was started by Reagan), its which candidates currently running have supported it. McCAIN has been a strong supporter and OBAMA has been consistently against it. He predicted the current conditions, while McCAIN said "the fundamentals of our economy are sound".

Umm, NO, it wasn''t it was Jimmy Socialist Carter who sold this country on de-regulation. - Reply to this comment
- If this measure passes and you are republican vote the bums out.If this measure passes and you are democrat vote the bums out. If this measure passes and you are neither or both republican and or democrat vote the bums out. The worker will never benefit from this bail out of greedy capitalist who have nothing but disdain for the American worker. They tried to replace you with foreign workers, trick your into deceptive loans, keep home prices at artificially high levels then resist the natural lowering of those prices,and take those profits out of the market for their own betterment. Now the want us to give them a bailout they refused for S.S. How much abuse will the worker take without saying enough.

- Yeah, and if any of you lame brains had checked THE HISTORY OF DE-REGULATION legislation, you would find that your horror of horrors, Phil Gramm the year before de-regulation was passed, had BLOCKED a bill requiring that banks and financial institutions be required to make loans primarily in low income housing areas and people who had not the ability to guarantee pay back of their loans!
Hootie hooooooooooo!

Deregulation was done by Clinton and the liberals. How much longer do you liberals think you can continue to fool people? - Reply to this comment
