The View From Tanyard

The economy continues to tank. The Democrats accept no responsibility for the financial mess caused by the sub prime mortgage fiasco. Since at least 1996 Republicans have been sounding the alarm, according to the New York Times. But Democrats blocked all attempts to rein in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

It's a shame the public is blaming Bush for the economy. The public always blames the party in office for such failures. I'm not smart enough to know all the reasons for our economic condition but one thing I do know was that 2 years ago the economy was in good shape. The GNP posted healthy gains every quarter. What changed? The Democrats took control of Congress. You figure it out.
