[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 503712, member: 2189"] The AIG mess has consumed a lot of news focus of late and has many Americans focused on this issue. Of course, there is the obvious political manuevers trying to shift the blame and Sen. Dodd has admitted some guilt in respect to the bonus issue giving ground for democrat blame. In the sport of politics all is fair in love and war. However I got curious about a more exact timeline of events and I find a somewhat interesting one at the CBS News website. In respect to AIG, reading through the timeline I found this entry for Sept. 16, 2008' 2 days later on Sept. 18th, Congressinal leaders were given the now infamous Paulson/Benanke Nightmare Scenario of economic doom and meer hours away from Martial law having been now documented by several republican and democrat Congressman. In the panic to follow, the timeline goes like this: But let's go back to that Sept. 16th action of loaning $85 bil to AIG. This action was not an act of Congress but an act of the Federal Reserve with the blessing from President Bush. The website GOPUSA posted the following AP news story on Sept. 17th with the following quoted from within. Now Congressional leaders were briefed but this action was done without the Congress and did not need their approval. In fact, I believe the meeting served as a pump primer for the infamous Paulson/Bernanke nightmare scenario set to come 2 days later. And let's be honest, the Bush years like the Clinton like the Bush like the Reagan like the...you get the point were filled with socailism so to make that charge now and now alone is completely baseless to historical fact IMO There is no argument Congress is at fault in many respects but IMO to blame Congress and Congress alone, especially in wording used to suggest it might be all democrats is false and downright deceitful with dolus malus but then there's plenty of dolus malus going around these days from both political sides. My hope is that politicians will one day be seen as all being witches and we can revive the age old Malleus Malifricarum or HexenHammer and vanquish them from our presence. :happy-very: The scenario of economic peril was long brewing and as much as republicans love to cook up quotes of their own warning democrats of coming doom back in 2005' and 2006', there were others back in the late 1990's and early 2000's who warned and were completely ignored.
