Vitriol Espresso "I come in peace. I didn't bring artillery. But I'm pleading with you, with tears in my eyes: If you fuck with me, I'll kill you all." General James Mattis

"The recession started a year before the banks collapsed. This coming depression is because of Bush."

This seems to be the new battle standard for the Democrats who can't conceive of there being issues that work against their Great Leader. Blame Bush! is the new battle cry. Even if Bush had nothing to do with it. You want to know who's to blame for the coming depression?

---- Yes, depression. You think the stock market going consistently down is leading to some kind of mythical spending hole that'll explode in rainbows when it reaches critical mass? Grow up. Go read a history textbook written before the Carter era.

This recession and coming depression is firmly and unequivocably the fault of our Democratic Congress. Pelosi, Reid, Frank, Dodd, and all the rest of them that blocked efforts to reform the Community Reinvestment Act (where banks had to prove that they weren't discriminating against minorities, which according to Phil Gramm is extortion...and it is) that was created by Jimmy Carter and rewritten by Clinton. The efforts to reform by Republicans since the year of it's inception has been blocked by Democrats for DECADES.

It was the government allowing too many people too poor to borrow too much money and then guaranteeing to cover the loss that caused this coming depression. It was Democrat doctrine that caused this mess. It was Carter, Clinton, and their left-wing asslickers that got this ball rolling, boys and girls. And it was our current worthless Congress that has rolled it into the giant shitball it is today. And the shitball only gets bigger under the upturned nose of Barack Obama.

So kiss my ass. Blame Bush when it's Bush's fault. This was NOT the fault of a Republican president. And I can /prove/ it. And before you say 'Oh, disabled people will thrive under the new programs of the Obama Administration' remember that nobody can do anything if the dollar is only good for toilet paper. And THIS is what I've been preaching to you for the last several years.
