There is no hiding from the sub prime crisis.

Both sides are playing the blame game for political gain, in reality EVERYBODY fucked up, including the American public who took out loans they didn't understand.

The landing could be slightly better or worse with a different President but good times they are long gone.
I agree. We found ourselves in the middle of a perfect storm and it all came crashing down at once. All shit we have done over the last 30-40 years has finally come home to roost.

There is plenty of blame to go around for the crash and, like you say, the politicians are playing both sides of the game.

My main point was that when things are good, you can sell just about anything to anyone. When things are bad, every little thing you do is held under a microscope and analyzed ten times.
