Hasn't Bill discredited himself enough? This is a financial conference & that's bush for Gods sake. Unless the idea is to show contrasts between good & evil in the economy, I don't get it.

Please, big Bubba provided the early regulatory loopholes, and bonny Prince George the W turned those loopholes into open spigots for the banks and financial services sector to create the mess we are now in, and we are supposed to take the insights of these two banking idustry whores on these issues seriously?

Give me a big ass break

Fuck you, George. Fuck you. Bill.

Allow me to be the first respond here with a positive comment about former President Clinton: He presided over and steered policy during the longest and largest national economic expansion in the history of the universe, poverty rates declined, real median wages actually showed some growth, the federal deficit was eliminated and the growth in federal debt was actually arrested and reversed at the end of his term. Also under Clinton probably less than 1% of killed or injured US civilian terror victims, US service people, and non-US civilian collateral victims compares with GW Bush's presidency.

Please return to your regularly scheduled bashing of all elected officials, acknowledging none of the vast differences in their individual ideologies, enacted agendas or empirical results of their leadership terms. Clinton screwed up some, Bush screwed up some, two peas in a pod I guess.
