Proven systems exist for fair and honest government and financial regulation unfortunately no one will take the blame for the two catastrophic legislative changes that were made in 1999 when Newt Gingrich lead the Republican controlled legislature to pass the repeal of Glass-Steagle and then to enact Grahm-Leach-Bililey which were then signed into law by President Clinton.
These two changes and the absence of enforcement of existing laws have nearly bankrupted our country and allowed Wall Street oligarchs to control our regulatory and political processes and nobody is to blame not Newt Gingrich nor his freshman Republicans who foisted these horrible changes on us nor are they calling for honesty in government nor are they attacking the healthcare industry which engineered the fraud that just became law.
A Public Option using the VA’s model of government staffed hospitals combined with sales tax funding instead of insurance for creating a new stand alone system could produce $1trillion of annual savings to bring immediate solvency to Medicare and Medicaid.
Someone needs to explain how healthcare industry money corrupted the legislative process so thoroughly that not even the President nor even one of the 534 legislators working on health reform for a year asked to have the VA successes brought to the debate and why isn’t the President and everyone of the 534 legislators asking for thorough investigations of government complacency or worse in what appears to be massive fraud on Wall Street.
No one’s to blame?
Billl: Proven systems exist for fair and honest government and financial
Newt is now saying that Obama is the most radical president in history (and all his policies will bring about the end of the country).
Am I having deja vu, or isn't that pretty much exactly what he (and the rest of the republicans) said about Clinton?
Here's a quote of Newt's on Clinton's budget (which didn't get a single Republican vote).
â– "The tax increase will kill jobs and lead to a recession, and the recession will force people off of work and onto unemployment and will actually increase the deficit."
Other republicans called it a recipe for an economic "apocalypse". Just what they are now saying about healthcare reform.
Of course they were famously wrong (as usual), and the Clinton budget led to a booming economy and budget surplusses.
Too bad none of their base will ever notice the trend.

Very good. Newt, Like McCain does not know what againg with grace means. He continues to piss and drool on the stage even when no one wants him there. It is sad to watch....
