Can you believe the gall of the democrats to blame the present mess on Bush??????? And they say we need a Democrat in office to solve these problems when they were the very ones to create them?!<br /> Democrats have no shame. In Japan, to save face, they all would have committed hari kari by now. But here instead they are lauded and celebrated by the MSM and Hollywood as saviors.

I make sure that I do as much of my own research as I can as I am never too inclined to believe anything I learn from the MSM and what the lousy legislators tell us. It is so fantastic to have found a dependable source for knowledge here on Tammy's site. I hope things go our way on NOV 4, but if not it's nice to have a support group to commiserate with for the next 4 years.<br /> </p> Thanks Dave – as I said at the bottom of my post, I was going to do some appropriate googling this evening, and I learned pretty much the same thing that you mentioned about Glass Stegall… I make sure that I do as much of my own research as I can as I am never too inclined to believe anything I learn from the MSM and what the lousy legislators tell us.

The repeal of Glass-Steagall is one of the things that has KEPT this crisis from turning into a total meltdown already: if it weren't for that, Merill Lynch couldn't have sold itself to Bank of America, and Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley couldn't have saved themselves by turning into commercial banks.</p> Daredevilaccordian, Kucinich is a loon as I’m sure you know and opposed the bailout for the diametrical opposite of the right reasons.

He explained how it essentially repealed most of Glass-Stegall Act (The Glass-Steagall Act prohibited a bank from offering investment, commercial banking, and insurance services - i.e. conflict of interest...) and why that is so important to note as this unfolds. He was one of the 94 (D) that voted against it. He also intimated that the leadership knew on Friday they wouldn't have the votes on Monday. He's often a bit of a kook, but he seemed honest and knowledgeable and offered a few good tidbits of info.</p> <p>Time to go do some googling of these two acts and the pressure from the Clinton Administration to expand mortgage loans among low and moderate income people with the Fannie pilot program. Seems like 1999 might have been quite a year in the genesis of a perfect storm, eh?</p> Of all people, I just saw Kucinich talking about the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Financial Services Modernization Act in 1999, compliments of Sen Gramm (R) and Rep Leach (R), signed by Clinton (it was a veto-proof bill catering to banking interests), blaming it in part for what we are wrestling with right now.

Because of the four most dangerous and self-serving words in economics: “this time, it’s different.”
