Next you will want us to believe he was a Dixiecrat and a Klansman, the fact is he was a registered Republican. Personally, I always vote in private, and so did Dr. King. But that's right, democrats know everything, thanks for the laugh.

In 2004, America marked the 50th anniversary of the modern civil rights movement, which began with the Brown v. Board of Education Supreme Court decision. That landmark decision was written by Chief Justice Earl Warren, the three-term Republican Governor of California appointed by Republican President Dwight Eisenhower. The author of Brown was also the 1948 Republican vice presidential nominee.
Three years after Brown, President Eisenhower won passage of his landmark Civil Rights Act of 1957. Republican Senator Everett Dirksen authored and introduced the 1960 Civil Rights Act, and saw it through to passage. Republicans supported the 1964 Civil Rights Act and the 1965 Voting Rights Act overwhelmingly, and by much higher percentages in both House and Senate than the Democrats. Indeed, the 1964 Civil Rights Act became law only after overcoming a Democrat filibuster.

Aw, look who can copy and paste. How cute!

Huh, that's curious, because Ronald Reagan, the conservative deity, tripled the national debt in 8 years. Hell, this country didn't even HAVE a national debt (for all intents and purposes) until President "I don't recall" took office. Then Bill Clinton produces a surplus (this will be funny watching you say he doesn't get the credit, when in the same breath you give all the blame for the current deficits to Obama), and Curious George comes along with the rest of the fiscal conservatives, and turns a $250,000,000,000 surplus into a $1,700,000,000,000 in 8 years, and somehow it's all Obama's fault?
Classic. God you're a moron.

Through rigorous enforcement of housing mandates such as the Community Reinvestment Act, and by prodding mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to make loans to people with lower credit scores (and to buy loans that had been made by banks and, later,“innovators” like Countrywide).

The Housing Department was Fannie and Freddie’s top regulator — and under Cuomo the mortgage giants were forced to start ramping up programs to issue more subprime loans to the riskiest of borrowers.

That is about as clever as you can get, how sophmoric.

Funny how stupid your post was, huh? I thought so, too.

The bottom line is that the signature achievement of the Clinton years (the surplus) turns out to have been a deep negative. For this drag on GDP was being counterbalanced by low household savings, high household debt, and the real revving up of the Fannie and Freddie debt boom that had a major hand in fueling the boom that ultimately led to the downfall of the economy.

And that brings up a broader question that people who advocate balanced budgets must answer.


Despite the budget surplus, interest rates were higher. And the surplus provided no protection of the coming slump. And if anything, it just weakened the most brittle part of the economy: households.

Furthermore, there is a pattern of this.

Japan ran a budget surplus in the year right before its economy went into terminal decline.

Are you capable of anything other than copying and pasting?

A) Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac don't make loans.

B) There is no such thing as the "Housing Department".

Any other idiotic drivel you can find on the interwebs?

You don't comprehend very well, do you?

With colleges producing more graduates, and youth unemployment at a sky-high 11.5 percent, even landing a job selling Big Macs is getting competitive.

Consider: A job opening at a Massachusetts McDonald's for a full-time cashier requires one to two years experience and a bachelor's degree.

"Get a weekly paycheck with a side order of food, folks and fun," offered McDonalds.

Welcome to the obama economy graduates.

Fannie Mae is a government-sponsored enterprise (GSE) chartered by Congress to keep liquidity flowing to mortgage lenders such as local and national banks, thrifts, credit unions, and other financial institutions. We purchase and guarantee their loans to enable families to buy homes, refinance their existing mortgages, or access affordable rental housing. We package loans into Fannie Mae mortgage backed securities (MBS), which global investors can purchase.

You can't argue substance, so you argue minutia and semantics.

This is a waste of time.

You aren't telling me anything I didn't already say. Fannie Mae DOES. NOT. MAKE. LOANS. That's not semantics.

You lose again.

You can't even copy and paste a decent idea. You make me sad.

The Associated Press [AP] has announced they will no longer use the term "Illegal Alien", they will replace it with "undocumented democrat".

He didn't say that was semantics, it was a required illustration for a moron like you, you're probably the only one that doesn't understand it, you and obama. You clowns couldn't run a lemonade stand, and if obama did, it would be his first real job.

It's obvious what he said, and everyone knows the history of the CRA, that they were forced to guarantee the loans, otherwise they wouldn't have been made in the first place. Do you understand what collateralized debt obligations are? Do you know what credit default swaps are for collateralized debt obligations? Did you know that speculators could buy credit default swaps with AIG against CDOs they didn't own and that they could insure them by paying AIG quarterly premiums if the CDOs went under, that AIG had to pay everybody including speculators?

Well do you, punk?

Goober, it is a rare person on topix who is too dumb to even bother with. You are aptly named.
