    The Bush administration, the Champions of Capitalism and the "free market" rode rough shod over the banks just like they did over everybody else. GW just said he believed in freedom. His actions and history will tell a different story.

    Those of you that cry anarchy.............his administration was a fine example.

    Correct, there is no love loss for GW or for anyone else that expouses the same beliefs............
