Worst mistake was not sacking Paulson and, like Bush pere, not paying enough attention to the domestic economy that gave us the current curse.

I agree...Paulson changed the TARP goals unilaterally...Bush was already FIGMO and gave the OK to release the balance of the funds, which I don’t think he should have done, he should have forced Zero to own it all...which I think was the REAL mistake made...W was absolutely blindsided by Paulson and Geithner, which was bad, but not as bad as some make it.
