The bill that ultimately "repealed" the Act was brought up in the Senate by Phil Gramm (R-Texas) and in the House of Representatives by Jim Leach (R-Iowa) in 1999. The bills were passed by a Republican majority, basically following party lines by a 5444 vote in the Senate
I think we can all agree , Left , right , progressives, Far Right all politicians are corrupt and they do things for themselves , how they can further their career , how much money he can make while in office , insider trading since that has been brought up too ,before they worry about the tax payers and their opinion.The funny thing is the right now has to back regulating the industry to defend Newt.
Im glad that they are starting to come to their senses for once.
It was a stupid move (by Clinton, fyi) and anyone with even a half an ounce of common sense knows that. Pity that our politicians - both sides - put corruption above the country way back during Clinton's presidency, huh?
Why stop at clinton? One can.make arguments as far back as carter and.reagan.
Clinton wasnt the sole reason just like fannie and freddie didnt cause this mess. A lot of.reasons went into thr melt down.
Im glad the right is now admitting they were wrong about Deregulation.
It is a historically failed idea.
Now maybe we can re regulate the areas that need regulating.
This must mean you will all Back Obama in regulating the industry?

It had to be passed by congress. Who controlled congress?
And yes many dems had sold out to big business as well.

It really takes a different kind of mindset to understand what is being said here. Truthmatters you do understand there is a whole lot that goes into the totallity of deregulation correct? That if someone supports a specific act of deregulation it doesn't mean they support deregulating everything possible or if one doesn't support a deregulation act it does not mean they never support deregulation.
You have been shown facts over and over regarding the last 35 years that Democrats have backed, supported and signed as many deregulation measures as have the Republicans. You get so caught up in the rhetoric that you don't follow the actions and anyone who follows politics knows that a politicians rhetoric and action are often two different things.
So saying deregulation is a historically failed idea is not only stupid it is false.
Hmmm...... This free market thing has 1929 and 2008 to it's credit. Can we say that it is a failure?

Can someone who may not be a democrat who bashes another republican be a hack?gingrich admitting he was part of the reason for the economy being in the shitter.. and being unapologetic about it.... will play well in dem ads if newt gets the nom.......
1) Stop being such a political hack.
2) If you are going to be a hack, don't you dare go twisting around my words to fit your political agenda.
I never said he was unapologetic for being "part of the reason for the economy being in the shitter" (which is a rather dubious claim to make, since we're talking about 15 year old legislation). I said he was unapologetic for the fact that he was making a reversal on his stance. He comes across as proud to reverse his stance. He seems all too happy to learn from mistakes of the past and propose a solution that is in the best interest of the nation. This is the kind of thing we should want to see from our elected officials but don't always get. In fact, there's been plenty of times when I didn't see this coming from Newt at all. But here, he's on target, and I give him credit where it is due.
TO LITTLE, TO LATE
Exit stage left newt, your a fucking pretender and everyone knows it. Ron Paul has spent a lifetime fighting these bankers, if he really wanted to put them in check he would support liberty.
Does this mean you will throw Newt under the bus?
Ya Think--LOL
Hey but you liberals went for the Frank/Dodd bill which doesn't even regulate Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and you called it good---

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are being shut down.
What will you whine about when they are gone?

Shutting down Fannie Mae--Freddie Mac would be fine with me--the freaking Federal Government had no business being involved in mortgage loans in the first place--and as everyone knows EXCEPT YOU Criss--is that ALL roads to this current economic collapse lead right back to the front doors of Fannie/Freddie--and the Dodd/Frank bill did nothing to regulate them.
