Interesting. Also covers Greenspan's view on the Bush administration's fiscal competence.

Interesting. He seems much more willing to share his true feelings now. Maybe I'll read his memoirs.I drank beer. I like beer. I still like beer. ... Do you like beer Senator?

I bought the newspaper today, and it says
"Duro ataque de Greenspan a Bush por su indisciplina fiscal"
-Elogia en cambio a Bill Clinton
"Something like Greenspan strongly attacks Bush for his fiscal indiscipline
But says nice words about Clinton"
But the newspaper says nothing about the war being for oil.I need a foot massageComment

I actually agree with him that Bush should have used his veto pen more to reign in the out of control spending Congress was engaging in. I never saw any real reason for him not to.
On the other hand, I'm not sure I'd buy his claim about it being a war for oil. Why would he even be involved in such discussions?I make no bones about my moral support for [terrorist] organizations. - chegitz guevara

The war for oil thing is such a footnote. The biggest thing was him slamming the fiscal policies of almost the entire GOP: The Reagan White House, the Bush I White House, the Bush II White House, and the Hastert GOP-led congress. The one left standing is the Gingrich GOP-led congress.
Can't find much to disagree with Greenspan regarding the GOP. The GOP has lost its way. The only one carrying the true GOP banner right now is Guiliani. As far as I can tell, the rest (ex-Gingrich, who has little sway in the party) are really socialists at heart -- always looking for a handout from Uncle Sugar.
On the other hand, his kudos to Clinton are misplaced for the last couple of years of his presidency. Clinton should have been cutting taxes during that period.Last edited by DanS; September 16, 2007, 12:37.I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

It's his memoir. He can opine about anything he likes in his memoir.Originally posted by Darius871I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter.

Of course he can "opine" until he's blue in the face. However, the article above and another linked in it speak of a "declaration" and make it sound like he's speaking from a position of authority based on classified information to which he'd have access.
In reality, the beancounter-in-chief wouldn't be any more in the know about national security related decisions than the Secretary of Education or Postmaster General. Should their opinions on Iraq be news as well?Last edited by Darius871; September 16, 2007, 12:52.Comment
