Bush: “Wall Street Got Drunk”


President Bush was recorded as saying, “There’s no question about it. Wall Street got drunk, that’s one of the reasons I asked you to turn off the TV cameras. It got drunk and now it’s got a hangover. The question is how long will it sober up and not try to do all these fancy financial instruments.”
Presumably, this is an area that Bush is familiar with. Let’s continue the metaphor and say that the Federal Reserve “was doing lines of blow off the hooker’s ass.”
