Uh, there was no "deregulation" of anything at any time during the Bush Presidency. In fact, Bush signed Sarbanes Oxley in 2002 in response to the Enron collapse and federal spending and regulations went up every single year he was in office.
Additionally, since America spent much, much more as a % of GDP on WWII than OIF & Afghanistan, and no economic collapse followed the WWII spending, that point is comically stupid.
Additionally, there were no "tax cuts for the rich" since the Bush tax cuts lowered tax rates on all taxpayers and created a new 10% bracket. The Bush tax cuts are part of the reason why ~47% of Americans pay no federal income tax and the top 10% pay more than 70% of all federal taxes. The federal tax code became more progressive during the Bush Presidency.
Watching you make these idiotic, generic pronouncements as if they are proof of something is laughable and pathetic. You couldn't explain, factually, how "tax cuts" would lead to an economic collapse (such a thing has never happened in the history of America) if there were a lotto type grand prize.
You are a complete fucking moron.
In the real world, not dipshit vittard land, here is what actually contributed to the economic collapse.
In 1995, President Bill Clinton's HUD agreed to let Fannie and Freddie get affordable-housing credit for buying subprime securities that included loans to low-income borrowers.
Andrew Cuomo, the youngest Housing and Urban Development secretary in history, made a series of decisions between 1997 and 2001 that gave birth to the country's current crisis.
Capitol Hill bore down on Mr. Mudd as well. The same year he took the top position, regulators sharply increased Fannie’s affordable-housing goals. Democratic lawmakers demanded that the company buy more loans that had been made to low-income and minority homebuyers.
-------
Yet of course:
The Bush administration today recommended the most significant regulatory overhaul in the housing finance industry since the savings and loan crisis a decade ago.
Under the plan, disclosed at a Congressional hearing today, a new agency would be created within the Treasury Department to assume supervision of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-sponsored companies that are the two largest players in the mortgage lending industry.
===
Yes President Bush wanted more oversight of Fannie & Freddie.
"Deregulation" doesn't mean what you think it means, dumbass.
No go on and respond with a border line retarded 1-liner about '2 wars' moron.

"You don't know what liquidate means"
"You don't know what statistics means"
"You don't know what spending/GDP means"
"You don't know what tangent means"
The dude is a fucking psycho. He's actually wrong more than Willie is. Never seen someone so convinced that they are intelligent, lol. Poor fella takes some ass whoopins though. Gets back up and staggers like a fool. Never seen someone beat so bad in my life.
VERY true. In the real world, Aki is a moderate, who leans slightly right on alot of issues I disagree with. He's more right than me, and again, in the real world, I'm a moderate that leans left on many issues. He is pro war, pro NSA, pro Drones. We disagree on those, but we disagree civilly because we're both normal guys who can disagree and be civil. But in the insane world of the Poly Forum, where Ted Cruz is a moderate, where someone who supports terrorist actions against the President and the Mayor of NYC operates with nary a negative word, (except for those of us with morals and a conscience), Aki's looked at as a flaming Lib, which is laughable. He(and I, and other sane people) are unable to hold civil conversations down there because of the sick cult that has taken over that place. So we have to sink to their level to even get a word in and make the points we want to make.
You were the voice of sanity down there for the liberals. No one can/has taken your place, because neither Aki nor I, not BP are actually liberals, but down there, we're portrayed as liberals or worse because we don't think Obama is a Kenyan Muslim Terrorist that caused Benghazi, or is out to destroy the Country. The other guys that are really Liberals don't post there much, so the hellhole is dominated by the sick Cultists who actually think Obama is all of those things.
You're post is dead on accurate about the place, but it still has entertainment value, and occasionally you can have a serious discussion and actually learn things from Conservative guys like Mantis, NFL Trends, Scott L.
What should we be called out for? Calling vile haters like yourself the vile haters you are, after we are continuously insulted? I tried to be reasonable with you, and when you suffered your tragedy, you seemed to be turning the corner into sanity and reason. But sadly you have regressed into the vile hating POS you always were. I defended you when Aki responded to your attacks on him in kind. But after months of calling me vile names, I have started to answer you back in kind. Vit is a smart, honest guy, and he sees what's going on down there, and he's calling out those who deserve to be called out.
:howdy:
From the same Poll. Funny how you omit this Casper. Doesn''t quite fit with your slanted viewpoint.
I think Fox News may have stumbled onto something.
This is from their poll dated 5/14:
Do you think Republicans in Congress who are investigating the Benghazi terrorist attacks are mostly doing it to get to the truth about what happened or are they mostly doing it for political gain? Get to the truth: 30%
Political gain: 63%
Political gain: 63%
These are very true words. There is not a single person I know that would consider me a liberal. But I also been around smart people my whole life. They worry about things like hunger in Africa, war, corporatism, human trafficking, domestic spying, and some of the super libs also care about the animals and the environment, lol. One thing they do not care about is whether or not Obama said Benghazi was over a video or not. These guys are so detached from the real world it is scary. Kind of like how they thought they'd get 10 million militia men to show up and oust Obama. They are literally like a cult... I have never seen anything like it.
