Well it seems the only reason were saved from a depression was due to the quick thinking of gdub and his knights of the round table. Mitt also furthermore says that LESS regulation will help us avoid a repeat of what happened before . Cause you know it was all that heavy handed regulation that caused the banks to plummet.

Well, right off the bat, this reporter got it wrong. The crowd was at full capacity, not "around 200" people. The capacity of the Legion facility was close to 400. In fact, there were more than 200 people outside who couldn't get in and were listening to the town hall on loud speakers. I should know....I was there.

So what exactly should we take as accurate from this reporter if he can't get the basics right?

Willard is correct that W saved the nation from a depression,...for the elitist 1% like himself. For the rest of the nation, it was completely destroyed.

The work of liberals at the federal level, requiring loans to the low-income for housing, along with George W. Bush's emphasis on an "ownership economy" actually was a big case of government over-reach.
