It's really a question of whether Bill is an idiot, or he was bought, he doesn't get off the hook for having a D next to his name
Agreed.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declin...93Steagall_Act

Thing is that Glass Steagall had been getting chipped away at for decades. By the mid 90s you had many arguing that a full repeal would actually be in the best interest of consumers. Maybe those who wanted it kept on the books didn't make a good enough case.

You know, Donald Trump may be our first Oompa-Loompah president and Barack Obama may be our first black president....but what a lot of people don't know is that Obama was also the first president to marry a transgender woman.

God I was getting a haircut last month and this guy next to me genuinely believed this. The lengths Obama naysayers go to slander him is un****ingbelievable.

I'll check that dictionary, but in the meantime I'm impressed - as is everyone else in the world - by your eloquence, obvious accomplishments and success, and the evidence of your blazingly high intelligence.

I'm kind of excited to see what conspiracies the left will glob onto involving Trump, but I'm also kind of tired of it already.

Is that a criticism of the childishness of making fun of a candidate's appearance?
