Bush’s former Treasury Secretary: ‘I don’t think Bush understands’ the financial crisis.

Former Treasury Secretary Paul O’Neill said President Bush is “in a panic” over the financial crisis and isn’t well-equipped to deal with it. “I don’t think he understands or knows much about any of this and it shows,” O’Neill told ABC News. In his book, The Price of Loyalty, O’Neill revealed that Dick Cheney argued in a White House meeting that “deficits don’t matter.” O’Neill also said that he was disturbed that Bush was so disengaged on domestic issues.

1. What's to Understand When You are Stealing Money?
And you don't think he knows he's bankrupting Americans into a debt they never seen before. Afterall, this is the President that Marketed "Owner Society".... has a certain type of ring to it, doesn't it... like owning slaves....

Well, when you put society into a large debt, those you are indebted to, "OWN" your ass.
