This video clearly shows that George Bush warned Congress starting in 2001, that this economic crisis was Coming, if something was not done. But Congress refused to Listen, along with the arrogant Congressman, Barney Frank. This video says it all. The liberal media reportedly did not want this video on You Tube; it was taken off. This link is of the same video, but is routed through Canada . Everyone in America needs to see this before it is yanked off the Internet again! Let's see how far we can spread it before it's pulled off the Canadian site.

The "Liberal Media"..? What Liberal Media wanted the video down?
Just curious,
then with a republican control of the house and senate they did nothing.
then in 08 Fox said they told you so....duh.
In the 1996, 1998, and 2000 elections, Republicans lost Congressional seats but still retained control of the House and, more narrowly, the Senate.
After the 2000 election, the Senate was divided evenly between the parties, with Republicans retaining the right to organize the Senate due to the election of Dick Cheney as Vice President and ex officio presiding officer of the Senate.
The Senate shifted to control by the Democrats (though they technically were the plurality party as they were one short of a majority) after GOP senator Jim Jeffords changed party registration to "Independent" in June 2001, but later returned to Republican control after the November 2002 elections.
In the 2006 elections, Democrats won both the House of Representatives (233 Democrats, 202 Republicans) and the Senate (49 Democrats, 49 Republicans, and 2 Independents caucusing with the Democrats) as well as the majority of state governorships (28-22).
I know... Wikipedia as a source... but, these numbers can be validated by checking who sat in what seats at the official Congressional website.
...
So... godfather...
You are saying that then President Bush tried to warn a then Republican controlled Congress, who had control of the Congress since 1996 and did nothing, after being warned, from 2001 to 2006.
What conclusion do you come away with?
...
My guess... FOX News was the one who took the video down from YouTube, out of embarassment.
Hail, Hail!!!
That's history.
Nobody here seems to remember. Too busy blaming GW. Many need some moving training.
Great post. I am sure somebody here learned something from it that needed learning.
Huh.
Learned what? that the GOP did nothing with full control? enlighten me.
they must hate America
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
That's neat. Try again.
Fear brings discipline.
Woot
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
"Well, you tell him that I don't talk to suckas."
I present you......the GOP base
but yes everybody is always blaming Bush for everything and patting Obama on the ass so when I saw this I thought I would see the reactions of the folks on here and sit back and have a few laughs..no harm intended it's all about truth justis and the American way...
Godfather.
Godfather.
you watch a different news and read a different train than me.
Godfather.
What I find laughable is that you still believe that only Americans use and read this board, even having been told numerouos times. I am not American, and I believe that Bush was / is a war monger, I believe that Obama has let people down and has some serious questions to answer himself.
No you see Godfather, it doesn't have to be one or the other, there is plenty of blame to go around. And just because Bush is no longer in office does not mean he should get a pass. History is about learning lessons, and the only way lessons can be learned is if those who have made mistakes are held accountable for them.
Godfather maybe you can answer this - why does it always have to be one side or the other? Why if someone does not agree with you that they are automatically branded as Dems or liberal?
Even by your own admission you say that you posted this for no other reason than to sit back and get a laugh from the reaction. Now you may disagree with me, most likely that you do - this how ever should not pigeon hole me into either camp.
Toow
Godfather.
That's the thing... what it sounds like is political partisanship. You are trying to defend Republicans from Democrats.
The truth is, most people here assign accountability for the ones responsible for the actions that lead to the consequences. All it ever sounds like you are doing is defending Bush, not because of his decisions, but because of his political party affiiation.
And you mistake our holding Bush responsible as supporting President Obama. That is a false pretense. We are holding Bush responsible for the consequences of his decisions and actions... and we hold Prsident Obama responsible for HIS decisions and actions. We are not partisan hacks.
Hail, Hail!!!
America was attacked and he asked for war or was told to got war and now he's a war monger ?..that's the kinda crap I disagree with so when I found this in my e-mail box I just laughed my ass off because I read so many posts on here blaming Bush for our economy and poor obama was left with such a mess to clean up..when obama was senater did he call foul or say "hay we're headed for a train reck" ? point is that there is pleanty of blame to go around and this place is Bush hater central so why not have a little fun with it,after all you guy's taught me how to play the game on here
Godfather.
Well, there you go, again... more partisan hackmanship.
Your points... yes, we were attacked. That fact is undisputed. We were attacked by Al Qaeda, NOT IRAQ! Yes, going after Afghanistan/Taliban for harboring Al Qaeda was the right thing to do. Going into Iraq and leaving Afghanistan half-baked and allowed to fester into the lost cause mess it is today was the wrong thing to do.
The economy... I just pointed out that both Houses were under Republican control when Bush issued these warnings... why didn't THEY say, "hay we're headed for a train reck" or do something between 2001 and 2006? Instead, it was allowed to continue until the entire thing almost fell into full collapse.
...
We didn't show you 'how to play the game'... you were apparently self taught by only listening to ONE side (your side) and getting all of your information from ONE side (FOX News). You are the only one playing this game... we're not in this game.
Again... assigning RESPONSIBILITY to the RESPONSIBLE party is what I am doing... NOT defending President or Democrats or Liberals... it is holding those RESPONSIBLE, accountable for their actions. Which, I always thought was a cornerstone of Conservative thinking.
Hail, Hail!!!
O.K man.

Republican reaction to Obama's push for the highway bill was swift, with a spokesman for House Speaker John Boehner accusing the president of using irresponsible scare tactics.
"Aside from the president today, no one has suggested the highway bill will be allowed to expire," Boehner spokesman Brendan Buck said. "Republicans support an extension of the highway bill and appreciate the need for a long-term solution for infrastructure projects."
