The Infidel
EVIL CONSERVATIVE
Holy crap? Democrats had been in the majority in congress and the senate for two years when Obama was elected. You could make the argument that democrats set up the financial collapse as the biggest October surprise in history. The "man" who was holding all the cards was the powerful banking chairman and he confessed that he had "ideological blinders" on when Fannie collapsed.
First off, you need to stop regurgitating false neocon talking points, Avatar. The Dem win in 2006 DID NOT give the Dems the majority votes in the Senate necessary to pass their reforms and proposals. Add to that the record number of filibusters by the Party of NO, and a key support of your "argument" disappears. To try and IGNORE the deregulation and reaganomic approach by the Shrub & company effect on the country would only be accepted by someone who is only attune to one type of news source.
As I suspected, when a GOPer makes a slip and acknowledges that Obama inherited a steaming mess from the previous administration, the neocon apologist rush to the Shrub's defense with the same tired half-truths and distortions....pathetic.
Nobody thought our economy was doing well in 2008. There were no "slips and acknowledges". Only a partisan hack would try and make a moronic point like that.
The dems had the Senate, and they had Congress from 2006 on, so lets try and play the game of "reality".....it took both parties to get in the mess we were in.
X2... Most actual "conservatives" were as pissed at the Repub's for what they were doing as we are now.
Lets not forget who handled the purse strings since 2006 either
