The recession started in December of 2007. Your entire argument hinges on legislation passed from January of 2007 up until December, do you mind pointing it out ?
President Bush had been warning Congress of the housing bubble burst caused by the aggressive enforcement of the Community Reinvestment Act, which was signed by President Carter, and was truly placed into effect under the Clinton Administration.
The CRA forced banks and lenders to give mortgages to people who could not afford them.
Hence, the mortgages defaulted and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac could not absorb the bad debt.
President Bush warned the Democratic Congress of the imminent collapse, and they did nothing.
The Democrats caused the economic recession of 2008 through both their interference with the housing market and their inaction to stop the recession.
They are to blame.
These are facts, knowable to anyone who bothers to learn the truth, rather than rely on propaganda spewed by MSNBC.
re reading my post isnt going to help me understand what you are meaning. How about you just say it in plain words ?
How about Harrier quoting your post - which he already DID - but you are apparently too drunk to notice.

He ever promised no lobbyiest in the white house, he said they wouldnt run his white house, there is indeed a different one that has been pointed out to your before, even in your own links you provided as proof.
The only way you can say he broke the 5 days online pledge is if you claim he meant it as posting it onewhite House.gov, which he didnt.
And he also never mad the claim that businesses would not give out bonuses to their employees, the only way he could promise that is if he took over private businesses which is against everything you believe in.
Harrier found even more typos the second time around.

Problems with your argument
1. This act was passed in 1977 by a vote of 79 to 7 in the senate and 369 to 20 in the House. That is the definition of bipartisan
2. President Clinton only had 2 years of a Democratic Congress, the other 6 years were Republican controlled, So what is your argument as to them adding to the problem rather than fixing it.
3. President Bush had 6 Years of Republican control of congress to change these things did he not ?
Are you claiming it did not matter the first 6 years of his Presidency ?
4. You did not answer my question, name the specific part of the law and when it was passed, you made a vague argument taking place over 4 decades with no specifics.

Ahh, you are claiming i am drunk because i made typos. Here is a little advice.
1. Rereading my own post would not have told me what you were thinking in your head.
2. I dont drink... at all.
3. None of my post or the typos in them are incoherent, they are typos and just that. The fact that you didnt even notice the typos until after the subject of being drunk was posted means you didnt even truly believe your own comment. It was more then likely a half *****ed joke.
4. not putting an apostrophe on didnt is not a typo, thats a choice, same with white house not being capitalized.
5. Dont make errors yourself if you want to point out someone elses, just saying.
If you want to argue that someone is drunk posting, there are some clear examples of that on other threads.
The GW Bush presidency has virtually been erased from the collective American consciousness.
Really? Does that mean we won't hear libs bitching and moaning about Bush every single day ever again? Because from what I've seen liberals certainly haven't forgotten Bush and they're doing everything in their power to make sure that no one else forgets him. Obama they clearly would like to forget, but never Bush.

It obviously wasnt in coherent or is this like "unprecedented" where you dont understand what the word means ?
my point is, i had been posting for the better half of an hour..or 2, and you had no problem with my typos. You were making a "funny" based on a faulty premise, and i didnt get it, so the time has passed. Let it go
