What are you talking about? QE1 was backed by Obama and was started just after the elections and QE2 was started two years after. Now Bernanke is hinting about QE3.

Of course you can't. All it took was putting the entire context in place to demonstrate your dishonesty. If not for it, you have NOTHING!

So, now you're blaming Obama for it? Seriously, what do you people drink? Let me have some of it so whatever pain this country has to go in the future may actually appear to be good times as I celebrate with y'all.

For the housing and tech bubbles? No. I'm blaming him for continueing the same failed ideas of the past.

You're funny. Why would I discuss a point as my own or defend it when it clearly wasn't what I said? Either you are unable to grasp that, or you just refuse to do so. Either way, I'm not going to take a position because you would rather discuss something irrelevant to what I was saying because you think you can make a point about that topic. To assert my stance in the face of what I have written is dishonest.

So you think he had the time and support to radically change everything built up over... (hence I asked you for an estimate of when it all began).

I wasn't trying to be funny. I was simply addressing a message that YOU posted with a quote duly edited out of context. What kind of people do that? Someone with logical and proper reasoning, or dishonest people with an agenda, especially when they continue to refuse accepting the context.

Sorry, the attempt at misdirecting is a waste of my time. Obama has inflated Wall Street through main street. That is what he has done. What was done before that is irrelevant.

Not irrelevant, but inconvenient when the sole idea is to score political points.
