However this is the result of bush Deregulating wall street and banks. Presidents have the power to regulate and deregulate.

Damn that George Bush for repealing Glass-Steagall!

I fully blame Clinton for that and it was also a republican congress bill that did that. President can only choose to not enforce regulations. Yes glass steagal was removed and under GOP control of congress. clinton should have vetoed the bill.

I'm guessing you haven't looked at the voting percentages for Glass Steagal.

It was a giagantic bipartisan bill that got more democratic votes for it, then the bail out of the banks got Republican votes.

 

The fact that you can't even stick to your own premise... in the thread you created is really sort of sad.
