So TARP was really just a big loan and the taxpayers have been paid back with a really good rate of return, right?

TARP money was paid back
Dumbo’s GM gifts, yes plural,are not required to be paid back as we were told they would....just another DUMBO write off at our expense as the FED digs deeper and deeper

TARP was the WORST thing he did as president, right there with his illegal alien amnesty plan. If he would have done those during his first term, I would have had a very difficult time voting for him again.

I remember seeing the fear in this man’s eyes back in September 2008. It was genuine and it frightened me to see that it was there. Unfortunately what the man should have been fearing was those who were advising him. He should have surrounded himself with Austrians.

This is interesting on many levels. I've wondered what GWB's hindsight on TARP is. I wondered if he knew or was he duped (by Paulson & Co.). This makes it clear that he understood TARP completely.

I'm glad to read this excerpt here, rather than have to suffer through Matt Laaaaauer or buy the book.

So, GWB's fuzzy math justifies TARP...that's a shame.

I’ll reserve judgement until I see GWB’s book sales up against Sarah’s. This country is on its knees begging for a leader. It ain’t another bush or establishment type. Do you hear me?

Still no concept of how the Constitutional Republic is supposed to operate.

Sad.

Still, I'd take Bush's ignorance over Obama's focused evil in a heartbeat.

Pulling this trigger takes 2.
