New study confirms economy was
destroyed by Democrat policies

A new study
from the widely respected National Bureau of Economic Research released this
week has confirmed beyond question that the left's race-baiting attacks on the
housing market (the Community
Reinvestment Act--enacted under Carter, made shockingly more aggressive
under Clinton) is directly responsible for imploding the housing market and
destroying the economy.
Again, let's
review:
-President Bush
went
to Congress repeatedly for years warning them that Fannie
Mae and Freddie Mac were going to destroy the economy (17 times in 2008
alone). Democrats continuously ignored him, shut down his
proposals along party lines and continued raiding the institutions for campaign
contributions on their way down.
-John McCain
also co-sponsored
urgently critical reforms that would have prevented the housing market collapse,
but Democrats shut that down as well, along party lines, and even openly ridiculed anyone who
suggested reforms were necessary...to protect their taxpayer-funded campaign
contributions as the economy raced uncontrollably toward the
cliff.
-No one was
making bad loans to unqualified people until Democrats came along and threatened
to drag banks into court and have them fined and branded as racists if they
didn't go along with the left's Affirmative Action lending policies...all while
federally insuring their losses. Even the New York Times warned in the late
1990s that Democrats continuing to force banks into lowering their standards
would lead to this exact catastrophe.
