Great. Your source proves Bush didn't deregulate Wall St. Your stinkprogress article can only document that Henry Paulson wanted SEC deregulation, but didn't get it, just before the mortgage meltdown. thinkprogress.org I guess Bush didn't deregulate anything and you liberals are a bunch of liars.

This is such a load of bullshit If you trace back the links in the article to the so-called "wall street deregulation" you find NOTHING in it that pertains in the slightest to the economic crash. There is no evidence to suggest that cutting taxes had anything to do with it, particularly given the tax cuts ended up raising more revenue and supporting the economy through several years of difficult times. The cost of the wars during Bush's years were roughly what Obama blew (wasted) on stimulus starting his second month in office. A strong argument can be made that the wars were actually more stimulative to our economy than was the Obama stimulus. The last two items are just the usual liberal claptrap. Left homeowners "in the lurch"? Seriously?
