Obama and his henchmen are Leftist dirtbags. Un-American to the core.

If it's proven that he is corrupt, the left will still never admit it. The cognitive dissonance will be epic.

Agree he is by far the worst... for the USA, but of course that is what he wanted. Jimmy Carter was the dumbest president ever.

Obama's a true piece of shite human being.
Just saying.
Let's just say the Nixon and Carter families are breathing a sigh of relief after bozo the assclown's time in office.

It's like Cheney never existed to you.

Cheney and the rest of his neocon ilk are pieces of shite too who should be prosecuted as war criminals and profiteers.

Bush 43 almost brought the whole economic system to the point of collapse.
White House Philosophy Stoked Mortgage Bonfire
By JO BECKER, SHERYL GAY STOLBERG and STEPHEN LABATONDEC. 20, 2008
WASHINGTON — The global financial system was teetering on the edge of collapse when President Bush and his economics team huddled in the Roosevelt Room of the White House for a briefing that, in the words of one participant, “scared the hell out of everybody.”
It was Sept. 18. Lehman Brothers had just gone belly-up, overwhelmed by toxic mortgages. Bank of America had swallowed Merrill Lynch in a hastily arranged sale. Two days earlier, Mr. Bush had agreed to pump $85 billion into the failing insurance giant American International Group.
The president listened as Ben S. Bernanke, chairman of the Federal Reserve, laid out the latest terrifying news: The credit markets, gripped by panic, had frozen overnight, and banks were refusing to lend money.
...As early as 2006, top advisers to Mr. Bush dismissed warnings from people inside and outside the White House that housing prices were inflated and that a foreclosure crisis was looming. And when the economy deteriorated, Mr. Bush and his team misdiagnosed the reasons and scope of the downturn; as recently as February, for example, Mr. Bush was still calling it a “rough patch.”
The result was a series of piecemeal policy prescriptions that lagged behind the escalating crisis.
“There is no question we did not recognize the severity of the problems,” said Al Hubbard, Mr. Bush’s former chief economics adviser, who left the White House in December 2007. “Had we, we would have attacked them.”
Looking back, Keith B. Hennessey, Mr. Bush’s current chief economics adviser, says he and his colleagues did the best they could “with the information we had at the time.” But Mr. Hennessey did say he regretted that the administration did not pay more heed to the dangers of easy lending practices."

Ever...as said before, every few months after he leaves office, someone will discover more corrupt shite. Trump's tweet was on March 4th...not even two months. Obama has plenty more unlawful acts to be discovered. He is a thug and too dumb to cover his tracks.

Nobody can top the Clintons in the corruption dept.
Corruption usually denotes exchange for filthy lucre.
Obama's malfeasance was more ideological. He was the true 'Manchurian Candidate.' He was not primarily interested in the money as were the Clintons, although he will become filthy rich in his post presidency.
Obama was truly an enemy of the constitution - just because he hated the constitution. The worst kind of traitor.

Too much bullshite there.
The economic system was sabotaged by the DEM party starting with Carter. The GOP never had the political power to undo the damage done by feckless DEM policies that created the housing bubble.
Bush tried multiple times to get the DEM controlled congress to re-examine the policies they instituted and insisted on maintaining.
Of course - Bush perhaps could have done more by using executive powers - but suppose he had succeeded?? The DEMs would still be denigrating him for "'preventing poor blacks from buying homes."
The responsibility for that recession lies completely at the feet of the DEMs in congress.

Can you cite some actual references for that?

...feckless DEM policies that created the housing bubble.
"Although an economic bubble is difficult to identify except in hindsight, numerous economic and cultural factors led several economists (especially in late 2004 and early 2005) to argue that a housing bubble existed in the U.S.[1][26][38][39][40][41][42][43] Dean Baker identified the bubble in August 2002, thereafter repeatedly warning of its nature and depth, and the political reasons it was being ignored.[44][45] Prior to that, Robert Prechter wrote about it extensively as did Professor Shiller in his original publication of Irrational Exuberance in the year 2000.
The burst of the housing bubble was predicted by a handful of political and economic analysts, such as G. Edward Griffinin in his 1994 book, The Creature from Jekyll Island, and Jeffery Robert Hunn in a March 3, 2003, editorial. Hunn wrote:
"[W]e can profit from the collapse of the credit bubble and the subsequent stock market divestment (decline). However, real estate has not yet joined in a decline of prices fed by selling (and foreclosing). Unless you have a very specific reason to believe that real estate will outperform all other investments for several years, you may deem this prime time to liquidate investment property (for use in more lucrative markets)."[46]
Many contested any suggestion that there could be a housing bubble, particularly at its peak from 2004 to 2006,[47] with some rejecting the "house bubble" label in 2008.[48] Claims that there was no warning of the crisis were further repudiated in an August 2008 article in The New York Times, which reported that in mid-2004 Richard F. Syron, the CEO of Freddie Mac, received a memo from David Andrukonis, the company's former chief risk officer, warning him that Freddie Mac was financing risk-laden loans that threatened Freddie Mac's financial stability."

To blame the housing bubble on Carter is ludicrous.

I am constantly entertained by the young and naive who honestly believe that America was running smoothly and squeaky clean until Obama took office.
Don't get me wrong, Obama is a true POS, but no more so than any of the other puppets before him hand-picked by the globalist Fascist establishment that has controlled this country for more than 100 years.
But please, don't let me interfere with the political hackery that drips from this board.

I don't really agree with that. The last president who tried to work for the American people was JFK. Look what it got him.
