How did Bush fk it up?
Loosening credit regs for banks who gave mortgages to anyone with a pulse.

From the man that said we'd never see any GDP gains north of 1.5% again? Granted he was a good speaker, but knew shit about economics.


I do believe it was Barney Frank that drove through the banking bill that led to the recession, but it is true that Bush did sign it. I don't think anyone ever claimed that Bush was a financial conservative.
