If thats what McCain believed, then why did he suspend his campaign and rush back to Washing to deal with something that you claim, he thought didnt exist?

Really? Can you explain exactly which Bush policies led us down the merry path of nearly total economic collapse? When were they enacted? Who controlled Congress at those times? Can you elaborate or will you just acknowledge that this is one of the good ol' standard talking points used to deflect whenever the disastrous record of Obama is the topic?

Bush and Mc Cain knew full well that Fannie and Freddie were in trouble and I heard many times Greenspan warning about the housing bubble . They knew and told the democratic congress about it and guess what , the democrats would not do anything about it.. Bush tried to get them to pass legislation on the run away housing market and they blocked his three attempts to do so.
