| The Troubled Asset Relief Program (TARP) that bailed out the big Wall Street banks was passed under Bush, NOT under Obama. Is this country suffering from collective amnesia???
Also, the Obama stimulus plan was actually the second stimulus plan. Doesn't anybody remember the $500 checks that we all got from Bush? |
| [T]he Wall Street bailout ... was passed at the urging of President George W. Bush, has been credited by most economists with averting a financial collapse, and is expected to ultimately cost taxpayers a tiny fraction of the original $700 billion authorized by Congress.
