Yep. Barney Frank was part of the problem. I never said that certain Democrats weren't to blame.

But here is my problem with that guy that wrote the 15 reasons why obama blah blah blah

He conveniently leaves out key things that are much worse in order to paint ONE SIDE as RIGHT (or correct, if you will) and paint the other side as wrong. It just isn't like that. And there is a ton of blame for the lack of oversight that goes to Republicans because they were in POWER!

Obama has been in office one month. There's plenty of time to call him out. Were you all calling out GWB? When, One month, One year? Four Years? Six? Ever?

Truthfully?

I am an equal opportunity cynic, when it comes to our politicians. I'm just tired of the hypocrisy. And I really can't abide by anymore pretty well off conservatives blaming the minorities for this mess. I just can't abide by it.

It's racism. Sure, Did some minorities try and scam the system. Yes. And some just were ignorant. But don't play that card ad nauseum, ignoring the other facts that came into play, and over emphasise its role in this debacle. I really like Joe Scarborough, but he has gone on and on about this. And he is wrong because it is only one piece of what contributed to this mess. The wealthy people on wall street that brought us this mess, sit in their fancy houses, eating caviar, driving their lexus, going to the Hamptons, and they don't give a rats ass.

And I'm not hatin' I'm calling a spade a spade, telling it like it is.
