Default TIME puts Clinton as well as others in the blame for economic meltdown

Have a look at the recent article in TIME pointing out the top 25 considered to be to blame for the economic mess we're in. Subprime mortgages, legislation to lessen the oversight on banking all had a major hand in pushing this over the edge. Interesting article that has Clinton pissed off for being put in the hot seat. The rest I am sure also knew they would get some heat for ther role.

I think it was John Roberts I saw on CNN pointing out that Clinton was listed 23rd out of 25, so he was just barely to blame. I guess it doesn't really count. I'm kinda suprised though - it is Time magazine. Why didn't they just do a Top 20 and save Bill some grief?

Ya really wanna know "why"? Cause having him on the list sells magazines! (not that he didn't belong there!) By the way, what number was barney (puke, gag!) frank?

They lumped the responsible and the irresponsible into one group. "The American Consumer" rings in at 16th -- just behind W, but well above Bill (or Barney Frank -- he had to be 26th!)

Thats OK, our government is going to let the poor soles who "live with in there budget" bail em out! that way they can continue to live their life style and we (who live with in our budget) can continue to live in our 2 bedroom homes and drive around in our 4 year old cars wow! isn't progress great!
