The facts are the banking system began to go ary---hindsight is 20/20 under Clinton when traditional banks were seperated from investment banks. This fact was admitted by Reish (remember Clintons labor sec. and now Osama's econ. advisor) in a TV interview on MSNBC. But it cannot be laid on the Pres. It was the Fed and not so much degreg but the lack of new regs when now financial instruments were created to overleverage these firms. Greenspan and the FED was alseep at the wheel.

Speaking of no facts . . . .
This is the first time in my life I've been called a lib - by anyone, anywhere. You discredit yourself in your rash and exceedingly inaccurate labelling of me and knee-jerk defense of President Bush. I still support George W. Bush. He's kept us safe from terrorists lo, these many years. I just don't support his
economic policies.
Open up your eyes and you'll see that
the era of small-government Republicans ended with Barry Goldwater, with a brief coughing spasm, quickly medicated, during the Reagan years. Both of our two major parties work tirelessly to expand government and erode freedom.
I am a small-government constitutional purist. I am not a fascist, communist, socialist, empirialist, or big-government anything. Most of those 'isms' are implied in the term 'liberal' these days, even though in the strict definition being both liberal and conservative are good things.
For you to blithely clump me in with the 'libs,' in today's parlance, proves that you haven't been paying attention. The only place I'm not considered an ultra-conservative fundamentalist is here on AFF.
