Mr Bubble criticizes Bush and GOP economic policies



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

All valid criticisms but let's not forget who had one of the most (if not the most) influential economic positions in the US, perhaps in the world. Greenspan accepted all of this bad policy including radical tax cuts during a war plus and he ignored traditional reason with the sub-prime lending programs so to listen to all of his criticisms today is an amazing display of chutzpah by the former Fed chief. As much as Mr Bubble loves a microphone or interviewer today, it's clear that the man knows how to work the media and exert influence so to pretend as though he could do nothing to stop Bush and the GOP when he was at the Fed is laughable.

It's unfortunate for Greenspan that we lived through that period and when all of the insane GOP policies were being shoved through Congress, he offered no criticism and did nothing to stop the insanity. In fact, Greenspan even went on the offensive against Hillary when she dared to ask questions and criticized the 2001 tax cuts. Funny how it was fine to attack Hillary but it was so difficult to criticize the GOP. I hope Hillary reminds him again that not everyone was wrong about the 2001 tax cuts which he embraced. His selective memory routine is getting old.
