[UpInArms]

now we're having a domino effect

securities became unreliable

large amounts of assets that could be sold

the banks found themselves in trouble

:nopity:

[paparush]

14. Bush - As someone who's run businesses into the ground..I'm uniquely positioned to provide insights.

[Fire Walk With Me]

43. Ah, but George usually managed to profit from having done so.

Google "bush failed businesses" and "disaster capitalism"..

[Captiosus]

15. Did he just completely blame ALL borrowers for this?

I could swear he did.
It sure sounded like he did.

NO, it has NOTHING to do with assholes in banks and wall street packaging loans and passing them back and forth to create FAKE value. Nothing at all. It's all the middle class' fault for being irresponsible.

Fucking lying asshole.

[Ranting_Wacko]

22. He did.

He just said people were borrowing more money than they could afford to pay back.

Of course - you know - the banks that gave them the money in the first place... totally blameless.

[muntrv]

17. Uh, Chimpy? How about sending jobs overseas? That caused a lot of

workers to default on mortgages.

[UpInArms]

18. the irresponsible actions by some endanger the future of all

he's talking about himself

must be the drugs he's taking to read the teleprompter

20. the beotch has a lispth,

or something. I had to leave cause they would take mortgages and bundle them and then sell them to foriegners, blah, blah, wide spread loss of confidence in the charlatans that run the financial industries. the thstock market is in Chicago and we're all gonna lose our jobs.

[Girlieman]

Barf barf barf barf...............

I can't stand this lying son of a b*tch

[Captiosus]

25. So much for that "leadership" and "altruism", McCain.

You're heading back to Washington not to be a leader but because Dumbass Bush told you to.

That should play nicely in the press.

[UpInArms]

26. we are facing not passing a bill now - cost Merkins more later

give me all your money and that of your children and grandchildren

we have to free the banks!

designed to lie to everyone

large and small

certain failures receive windfalls!

[Ranting_Wacko]

27. Ah. THERE'S the stick....

Invited McCain and Obama back to discuss the problem...

So if Obama shows up, he wastes time listening to the Repubs shooting down any proposal that isn't a blank check. If he doesn't show up, they spin that he doesn't care about the current situation.

[GinaMaria]

42. So McSame was called back to do his master's bidding?

He went back to DC to help bush screw the nation! That' John Country First McClone!

[baldguy]

31. If its anything other than a confession & resignation, its not worth listening to.

[paparush]

32. The Plan (tm) is big enough to solve a serious problem

Not necessarily THIS problem..but some serious problem..sometime..somewhere.

[UpInArms]

37. now it's a "blueprint" to solve the problem

not to undermine the overall stability

efforts to regulate Wall Street not to hamper our ability to grow

hahahahahahaha!

he's such a comedian!

entrepreneurs (wow! he learned how to say that one)

[Ranting_Wacko]

34. Oh... 20th Century laws are the problem...

... and we must get rid of them all until new laws can be figured out.

[paparush]

35. Bush - My cronies are going to buy all your property for pennies.. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHHAA!!!!

[Sebastian Doyle]

36. Does this fucking retarded monkey fish frog have a clue what he's talking about?

Harvard MBA my shiny metal ass! :rofl:

[onethatcares]

38. once this financial crithis is resolved we'll dream up another one

my wife is watching this guy, this is her first time ever seeing him try to read a teleprompter and look sincere. She says his beady eyes never waver.

[UpInArms]

40. my SO sees "Hoover" written all over his forehead

[erpowers]

39. Not Blaming Bankers

It seems to me that he has tried to not blame the bankers who gave out the bad loans. It seems to me that he acted as if this was caused by a number of people just making mistakes. He did not point out that a number of banker made decisions to give out loans to people who could not afford them because the bankers could make big money with those loans because they could sell them before the loan taker began to have trouble paying for the loan.

[paparush]

41. Regulation..but not TOO much regulation.. smirk..smirk..smirk

[paparush]

44. Elected Officials Rise to the Occasion.

Well, shit..that explains alot! Thanks for clearing that up Bush**. (as you were not elected)

[UpInArms]

45. UpInArms says : Sometimes no action is better than the wrong action

and these people need to go and do something unnatural to themselves.
