This thread should be titled: How the Democrats CONTRIBUTED to the financial crisis. Implying that the republicans had nothing to do with this is just as partisan and myopic as the dems refusing to pass the bill mentioned. Posts which try to imply that one party is golden and the other is crap are easy explanations for why the two party system is such a disaster. And I suppose the billions spent by Republicans and Demorcats fighting shadows in the middle east were sound, low risk investments? Please. If you expect the government as run by either party to make good financial decisions, you are hopelessly naive.

I had a few more things to pass on, but 392's avatar made me forget what I was saying. What were we talking about?
