Thread Name: BS: Popular Views on Obama
Subject: RE: BS: Popular Views on Obama
Can I ask you all something?

The gist Obama's Economic speech is that the current crisis was caused by the lenders screwing up and that the way to overcome this in future is sensible regulation tuned to the modern concerns.

How is this radical?
How is this right wing?
How is this not the very definition of conservatism?

Conservatism is not giving the banks a license to run amok, defraud people, and make bad loans.
