    Righto, we can tell them it happened when Bush nationalized the banks.

      "Righto, we can tell them it happened when Bush nationalized the banks."

      In which all parties McCain and Obama as well as Congress agreed upon! Poor argument.

        It's not a poor argument for making the case that Bush is the worst kind of 'socialist' this country has ever seen, redistributing the country's wealth into the pockets of corporations and criminals on wall street. The last people who should see monetary gain for their actions.

          Why is it a poor argument? Aren't conservatives against socialism? You don't think it's significant that a conservative president would nationalize the banks?

            Who was it who called for the bailout in the first place? George W. Bush.

              As if that matters, hell all went along with shrub and Iraq also, and now think it is ok as it is now part of everyday life.
              Elected officials get a great health care plan, courtesy of the tax payer, and that is socialism; just don't give it to the tax payers though.
              As Snowball said (think it was Snowball)
              "All animals are created equal, just some are more equal than others"

                First suggested by former Treasury Secretary Nicholas Brady, former Controller of the Currency Eugene Ludwig, and Reagan-era Federal Reserve Chairman Paul Volcker.

              "Bush" can't do ANYthing by himself, he needs the democraps support which, btw, he got. Read your history.

                Bush didn't "nationalize the banks". Clinton did it in 1999, Bush wasn't in office yet.

                  actually, Andrew Jackson nationalized the banks when he created the Federal Reserve.

                    Which piece of legislation was that? I think you're referring to the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act. Allowing banks and insurance companies to merge is hardly 'nationalizing', quite the opposite, it is removing government regulation.

                    But perhaps you are referring to something else?
