Did you know that Lou Dobbs was running the national debt ticker during his show prior to the 2004 election and the right wing controlled media made him pull it?  The truth was pissing too many people off. The moral of the story is, that there were 50 different Bush fires burning by then, including the Governors’ suing the Bush Administration over sub-prime loans and predatory lending. That was also post Enron and post no WMD & Downing Street, not to mention the exploding deficit.
If people understood what he had been doing they would have thrown him out in 2004. Of course that would require unbiased media coverage, and some honesty. We knew since 2001 that the repeal of Glass Steagle was as bad idea, but these guys always think their smarter than everyone else and 50% of the population is stupid enough to believe them, Tex.
