Credit Where Due



"Ya gotta keep 'em separated..."

During this election year,
let's keep a few facts straight
(or, likely, introduce them for
the very first time.)

Yeah, 'my man' Obama screwed
up with the bank bailouts, and in
keeping Bernanke/Greenspan on board.

But G.O.P. loverly George W.,
well, do you all remember what he
was up to in October of 20008?
His last ditch, 11th hour Hail Mary?

Well, he (BUSH,) set up the TARP plan
(to allow for such bailouts,)
and then passed a law allowing for the
$ 700,000,000,000.00
(that's SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS)
to bail out the banking industry.

And yet, somehow, lots of folks still
think the responsibility for the flawed
plan lies at President Obama's feet.

I'm sure Republican lies and Fox News
distractions have no bearing on that!

Just keep your facts straight for the
upcoming race. No, Obama didn't make
the right decision in pushing through further
bailouts, but isn't it interesting how the
move made by Bush received no resistance
and Obama's move gets nothing but criticism.

Things that make you go "Hmmmnnnnnn..."
