POPSTurbotax Tim Geithner: Obama’s Policies “Absolutely Not” Responsible For Debt Crisis
How can he disassociate himself from that deficit and instead blame it on Bush? But it gets even worse for him. Need I remind anyone – again (I do) – that Obama 1) voted for as Senator or signed into law as President every single penny of the deficit he now says he inherited, and 2) the housing meltdown was due to policies that he helped put in place going all the way back to his community organizer days when he muscled banks to give loans to people that couldn’t pay them back. For one, his own voting record: * Voted “yea” March 18, 2008 on the $3.1 trillion in fiscal outlays with a projected $400 billion budget deficit (only 2 Republicans voted “yea”, and not one Republican in the House voted for it after the conference committee) * Biden, Rahm Emmanuel and Hillary Clinton voted “yea” as well * Voted “yea” October 1, 2008 for the $700 billion Troubled Assets Relief Program (TARP) along with Biden and Clinton
