I do get the impression that, for many months, someone who posted an article on the housing situation risked being flamed. Many on freerepublic interpreted such a posting as a dig at Pres. Bush. But talking about the housing market is just that - talking about the housing market. Bush isn't responsible for the laws of supply and demand that have been causing a housing slowdown. And it's not "anti-Bush" to report on the state of housing prices. I personally think it's healthy for housing prices to flatten or go down. A continued run-up at the levels we'd seen for the previous three years was unstustainable, and it would have made housing unaffordable for most people, if it had continued.
No, it's not anti-Bush at all, it is simply the truth about what is going on. Bush has nothing to do with housing prices, per se. Greedy speculators, stupid banks and (indescribeable) real estate agents are to blame.
Actually the fed is to blame for propping up a faltering economy with cheap dollars (low interest) instead of letting the downturn run its course.
