Frankly, it gets tiresome reading all the suggestions for Obama from folks who stood by or encouraged the disaster known as the Bush Administration.
Was this guy offering "suggestions" as capitalism telegraphed it's weaknesses through the Enron and WorldCom disasters? While Enron was manipulating markets and the free enterprise people were explaining how it was natural market forces?
Did he simply stand by while the US, not learning those lessons, created huge unregulated financial instruments which have crushed the American financial structure? While the Libertarian economic view and capitalism unprotected from raw greed were demonstrated to be as false, phony and unworkable as communism?
I doubt it. And yet the people who have failed miserably are offering suggestions to those who have to clean up their messes.
Seems odd, doesn't it?
