When President Obama talks, at length, about how the Economy got to be in the tough spot that it's in, why is it that he always leaves out the part that he played in bringing it all about. And I'm not talking about some votes he cast in his legislative roles. No, his involvement is much more direct than that.
It all goes back many years to the Community Redevelopment Act (I've also heard it called "Reinvestment") which forced Mortgage lenders to give loans to low income people who could not afford them, and would be very unlikely to be able to pay them back. Of course, lenders were very cautious and tried to push back and make as few of these bad loans as possible, and the Marxist Groups, such as the now infamous ACORN, resorted to strong arm tactics to try to force the banks to make loans that they knew would be bad. During this time, Barack Obama, then a lawyer and street activist (or Community Organizer as they like to say) was one of the lawyers that sued the lenders to force them to make these highly risky loans.
Why is it that every other person in the world can be blamed for this mess, regardless of whether or not they had anything to do with it, or did anything wrong, or were forced by legislation and lawsuits (some brought by lawyer Obama) to do what they did, yet Obama, who bears direct responsibility, never gets mentioned with regards to blame at all?
