Weird that I would come across this just now.
The repeal of Glass-Steagall was definitely a critical factor in the housing/credit bubble.
So youâre a supporter of aggressive Federal regulation of the financial sector? I thought you were just arguing for the opposite.

Half of a decade listening to liberals bitch an moan about how âthey*â repealed Glass-SteagleâŚ
I feed you your own words and now Im a libber. Thanks for outing me, now I gotta get a Prius.
Were you waiting in the bushes long?
** The implication was that it was the opposition, not Clinton.
Hereâs a tip: Just because a Democratic President does something doesnât make it part of a liberal cause. George W. Bush was a supporter of immigration reform, that doesnât mean immigration reform is suddenly a key part of the conservative agenda.
I asked your opinion on Glass-Steagle. Since youâve already stated that its repeal was a critical factor in the housing/credit bubble, it seems that either:
A) You support aggressive Federal regulation of the financial sector, or
B) You oppose aggressive Federal regulation of the financial sector, but acknowledge that doing away with it has serious negative consequences.

Yea, thats what Clinton said.
I only have two choices, A or B? An B has terrible consequences? Im beginning to suspect that you are trying to lead me into a false dichotomy. Why do both alternatives have to be âaggressiveâ. And for that matter, why does the option you disagree with lead to âserious negative consequencesâ?
Also, it seems to me you are ignoring one fact, the aforementioned CRA.
Did you read the IBD article?
Your gluten-free, liberal pal,
Bobby.
This from the person who is somehow able to discern that Iâm a Clinton-loving, Prius-driving, gluten-abhorring libber socialist based on a simple question about whether or not you support legislation like the Glass-Steagle act.
