What do you have to do to your vocal cords to damage them like that? Gargle with some sort of weird rinse? Whatever it is, Harvey Fierstein must use the same stuff.

Then blamed Bush.</i><br /><br />It's entirely possible to be both over-regulated and under-regulated at the same time, like a city that installs red-light cameras and photo radar everywhere but does nothing about violent crime. The CRA was regulation that exacerbated the erosion of lending standards. The simultaneous lack of regulation for bond rating firms facilitated the issuance of junk mortgage securities. (The lack of enforcement from agencies like the SEC might be better described as regulatory capture, but I digress.)<br /><br />As for Bush, as Steve has explained, he is in fact responsible for pushing bad lending to an even worse degree than his predecessor -- and for doing absolutely nothing about the racial spoils system enforced by the federal government. So, the two points made by your tyro economist are in fact true -- but of course they're not the whole story.CJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-1697126684981684292009-09-18T12:36:08.788-07:002009-09-18T12:36:08.788-07:00Ahh, a GLOBAL economic crisis and all of one guy h...<i>Ahh, a GLOBAL economic crisis and all of one guy has the balls to keep repeating why it actually happened.</i> <br /><br /><i>We really have not learned from 911 either.
