hmm...since we KNOW that fannie and freddie caused all this shit, and we KNOW that Bush tried to fix fannie and freddie and was stopped by DEMS, there is pretty much indisputable proof this crap is all the fault of the DEMOFUCKINGCRATS
Don't forget President Bushes vision for protecting America was Missile Defense. And he was pushing it hot and heavy before 9-11. They mostly ignored the warnings from the Clinton Administration about what the most pressing threat there was.
Blind Boo you link me to one warning that stated that
19 insane Saudis
with legal tickets
legal pass ports
box cutters
where going to turn 4 passenger jets into scud missiles on the morning of 9-11-2001
WOULD YOU DO THAT OR STOP LYING ABOUT THE EVENTS OF 9-11 PLEASE
There were plenty of indications something big was coming:
1993 World Trade Center bombing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pan Am Flight 103 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Khobar Towers bombing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
USS Cole bombing - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
EgyptAir Flight 990 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

really?
your trying to say that a boat running into the side of the USS Cole full of explosives should have prevented 19 insane terrorist from boarding passenger jets on the morning of 9-11-2001 @ 0600?
The simplicity of the event made it impossible to stop. There where no laws broke until they attacked the crew
what the hell could you have done
conspiracy?
The patriot act? you could forget that in 2001, prior to 9-11
there was nothing in place to have prevented that and if there was it would have been a miracle
you gave all of those links and none have any warnings in them about the morning of 9-11-2001
none of them address passenger jets being turned into scud missiles with box cutters
Press Release: Agencies Adopt Final Rules to Implement the Bank 'Broker' Provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act; 2007-198; Sept. 24, 2007
Joint Release
Securities and Exchange Commission
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
2007-198
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Agencies Adopt Final Rules to Implement the Bank 'Broker' Provisions of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act
Washington, D.C., Sept. 24, 2007 - The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) on Monday announced the adoption of final joint rules to implement the "broker" exceptions for banks under Section 3(a)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. These exceptions were adopted as part of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999 (GLB Act). The SEC and the Board approved the final rules at separate open meetings held on September 19, 2007, and September 24, 2007, respectively.
The Board and SEC issued proposed rules for comment in December 2006. The final rules are similar to the proposed rules in overall scope and approach. In response to comments, the agencies also have modified the rules in several important respects to make the rules more workable and less burdensome. These changes are discussed in detail in the attached notice, which will be published in the Federal Register shortly.

I provided you with events that should have made anyone alarmed that was responsible for national security. Almost everything pointed to the fact that there were terrorists, escalting violence against the US, using bombs and seeking an attack on the homeland. And it's almost a given they are going to use planes to accomplish that, whether it be blowing one up..or hijacking one. It's absolutely stunning that security was so lax at our major airports that terrorists managed to grab not one, not two, not three..but four airplanes from a major US airline. Couple that with the fact that the Clinton administration had pushed for a bill to upgrade security at airports but Republicans in congress, at the behest of the airline lobbies, determined it was to costly.
Bush changed the national security focus from terrorism (swatting mosquitoes) to pissing off former cold war enemies. Pure and simple.
I am so sick of hearing the libs blaming all of this on W
OK Libs lets hear it
what did GWB do to cause any of it?

Bush lowered taxes for the rich, and then charged two useless wars on his Chinese credit card. This doubled the National Debt. Reagan and the two Bushes are responsible for 93% of the National Debt. Click on this link for the figures...
No regulation of Wall Street. This allowed Wall Street to create a $516 TRILLION DOLLAR derivative Ponzi scheme which destroyed the American economy.
Warren Buffett was the only one who warned that this would happen. You can read about it at this link...
Derivatives are the new ticking time bomb Paul B. Farrell - MarketWatch
So Bush doubled the National Debt and allowed Wall Street to run a Ponzi scheme which destroyed the American economy.
In the Democratic party, there is a group of "conservatives" known as "Blue Dogs". Don't ask me why they are in the Democratic Party. They vote most of the time with Republicans. Every time a scuzzy Republican bill is passed that turns out to be terribly damaging, which, of course, is most of them, the right wing says, "See? It was "bi-partisan"."
Having a Republican branch in the Democratic party doesn't make votes "bi-partisan". It means there are some dishonest people in the Democratic party. Of course, you can't find such a group in the Republican party. Because they vote alike, they walk alike, at times they even talk alike. Republicans are "alike", 90% white and mostly Christian.

what did GWB do to cause any of it?
Halving the capital requirements under the net capital rule didn't help.
Giving $5,000 downpayment assistance to poor homeowners didn't help.
Restructuring the definitions of qualifying mortgages didn't help.
Removing the teeth from regulatory entities didn't help.
All of those and other actions played window-dressing roles in a mess created by the financial sector.

How did GWB re structure the way a bank operates?
The teeth of the SEC regulators.Removed what teeth exactly?
I was all ways under the understanding those items you described could only be changed in congress
Are you telling me all of this happened without any legislation from congress?

By halving the net capital rule of the largest banks.
The teeth of the SEC regulators.

Well, you'd be wrong about that. both the above changes plus the changes to qualifying definitions were done under the executive branch departments
Are you telling me all of this happened without any legislation from congress?
The above? Yes. the $5,000 assistance for downpayments, probably not.
to start with young man the Security and Exchange has what to do with a home owner getting a loan?
Please provide links to the legislation
What do the regulators have to do with a home owner getting a loan from a bank?
