Except I use my non-liberal & non-conservative "reading comprehension" "senses" to determine throughout history what has happened. My "senses" show me that both parties have screwed us over, and joining one or the other as if they could do no wrong is proving your "senses" are as flawed as the party you don't like.

Let me guess, you don't like the source. No problem here's a pretty picture instead.

You know, some are saying that the Clinton administration is a big part of the blame of what's happening now, since this whole "grant expensive mortgages to idiots who can't afford them" deal started at the beginning of their watch...
