[QUOTE="Overpaid Union Thug, post: 2097053, member: 198"] You clearly suffer from (in addition to liberalism) a touch of confirmatory bias and a huge case of denialism. No matter how you spin it [B][I][U]none[/U][/I][/B] of Bush's policies, writings, or opinions, advocated giving mortgages to people that [I][U]couldn't afford to keep up with the payments[/U][/I]. At worst more people were able to get a mortgage with little or no down payment. I was one of them. So i can speak from personal experience and tell ya that little or no down payment has very little to no bearing on the ability AND the responsibility to keep up with payments. Whether or not the banks were "forced" to give out those loans is debatable (they were at least pressured to) but what is not is the fact that the people that signed up for them are 100% responsible for their own actions. But...... in typical liberal fashion people like you blame OTHERS instead of the ACTUAL people that signed the dotted lines. Bush isn't responsible for the irresponsibility of those that signed up for mortgages that they couldn't afford. They are. Those that could afford them and were responsible had no trouble. He also didn't pressure the banks to offer them to unqualified borrowers. The Clinton adminstration did. You just refuse to accept it because it doesn't fit your narrative of hating the right. Particularly white gun owners. Stop foaming at the mouth out of jealousy towards others and live your life right. [/QUOTE]
