Bush knew: July 2008 "Wall Street Got Drunk"

[deminks]

This phrase has been haunting me all day. It is a key to something. Smirky did not want the cameras rolling when he said this. We all thought at the time how ironic and funny that the Chimp is complaining about anyone being drunk. But today, I think it was a clue that they have been working on this for months.

An ABC-TV outlet in Houston, and now the Houston Chronicle, have posted a video taken at a political fundraiser for Pete Olson, featuring George W. Bush last week -- capturing some embarrassing/revealing moments after, he noted, he had asked cameras to be turned off.

The first moments form the July 18 event find him speaking almost incoherently in admitting, for once, that his friends in big business had screwed up: "There's no question about it. Wall Street got drunk ---that's one of the reasons I asked you to turn off the TV cameras -- it got drunk and now it's got a hangover. The question is how long will it sober up and not try to do all these fancy financial instruments

Rethuglicans are the enabler, they provided the booze.

Just a thought.
