O.K. ...THIS time I will actually RESEARCH the Brooksley Born Affair to try and figure out what your point is. You're STILL not going to get me to think that tax cuts for individuals create revenue. Tax cuts for Corporations is a different story. Why do I always have to be the NICE guy on this stuff?

You are a mass of misinformation. Bush allowed our banks to con the world with worthless collateralized debt obligations (CDO's) and credit default Swaps.. He allowed our banks to bundle junk bonds rated as triple AAA paper and then sell them around the world. The banks trusted us and we conned them. He gave AIG 187 billion to cover their bad credit default swaps. His guy overseeing Wall street did nothing for eight years. It was all Bush's fault. He let the darrk money do what they wanted. He was in for 8 years and had the congress for six. How did you pass the drivers license test? << It is abundantly clear that Bush did not cause the financial crisis of 2008. He just didn't. There is nothing anyone can point to to suggest otherwise. I would suggest you think about that.
