      If it was done "on purpose", maybe you should be looking at the gazillionaires running Wall Street. I think you'll find your culprits hiding there.

        Rush looks for the culprits like OJ looks for the 'real killer'.

      Rush is really on a roll today. At one point, when he was talking about some Chelsea/Hilary Clinton story from the National Enquirer, he asked when they've been wrong in the last 4-5 years. I guess breaking the Edwards story suddenly means everything they've ever said is true.

      Remember, people...Rush is an expert on everything. So he clearly knows what he's talking about here.

      What a scumbag. Rich white Republican bankers got greedy and burned the house down, taking our economy (and most of the world's) with them as a consequence of their blind pursuit of excess...

      ...And soemhow it's all the fault of black people and poor people and liberals the democrats.

      In a word? B*llsh!t.

      Yeah, right... it's not the Greed of the Libaertarian Investment Bankers who were on Wall Street perpetrating a near trillion dollar FRAUD. (I mean what ELSE do you call when a bunch of high-risk mortgages being bundled into a high-risk, or, "difficult to value" security and somehow given a AAA rating?")

      This is a failure of the RIGHT and the LIBERTARIANS and the CONSERVATIVE, REPUBLICAN philosophy of DE-REGULATORS and the GREEDY BANKERS ON WALL STREET.

      Period.

      We should bring back tarring and feathering, start with these bankers and finish with Limbaugh.
