And you don't think that crimes were committed? Under our ricockulous conspiracy, RICO, mail fraud, lying to feds, and tax laws, crimes are always committed if the Feds care to push the issue. You don't think execs at Countrywide violated laws or committed fraud? How about the admitted mass signing of false affidavits to support loan foreclosures?

Admit that Obama's DOJ has failed on this issue, like so many other failures by Holder and his ilk, except for assassinations, warrantless searches, and international hacking.

isn't the party line that Romney's Mass plan created most of those things?

As I have repeatedly said, Obama owes W an abject apology.

I'd say they both owe the public that apology.

And how is one hindsight (to use your word) and not the other? Now you have shifted to the probity of evidence. Just admit you were full of shit again.

I have really been disappointed by Obama's DOJ on this. They seem to work hard to find other things to do (hello, John Edwards). You can imagine career-staff types leaving DOJ to find a different kind of work.
