Barron's Calls a Bottom

This is one truely asinine statement. The fiasco started with Mr. Blue Dress himself wanting to put every breathing person in a house, continued by a democratic congress applying heavy pressure to relax lending standards. And continued by the general ineptitude of Bernanke et. al. There is plenty of blame to go around, including but not limited to Bush.

The problem isn't Obama's length of term in office, its the fact he promised a solution, and all ideas proposed so far have been hopeless. He can't even nominate cabinet members who can be confirmed without problems. So far he hasn't done much to gain credibility. And I hope that changes soon.

A great deal of general greed and carelessness by the financial industries lead to the rest. This is the group that thinks passing paper and getting points is a value added business and they should get millions for playing the bigger fool game on a grand scale.
