You're such a joke Ray, you just listed every Democratic leader in recent history and put the blame of the financial crisis that came after 8 years of republican leadership on them? And later you will claim to be playing it down the middle?
This crisis is a failure of REGULATION of programs that were setup to help this country and its citizens along. Your man McCain and his chief financial advisor buddy Gramm DEREGULATED everything they could get their hands on, and BUSH turned a blind eye and defunded the regulatory instruments, often selecting leaders from the industry which they are regulating to be the regulators. It was the Bush appointed fox guarding the hen house and there was a big slaughter, that YOU blame on the democrats. I emphasize YOU because I don't know anyone else who sees things as you do, you're living in your own private idaho and there are no facts or logic that is going to bring you into reality apparently...
