[quote=markmax33]”Ron Paul didn’t predict the housing bubble for the right reasons” – SK in CV

That is your lie. Even Rich agreed with the fact the fed and Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were the enablers of the housing bubble. None of the rest of the crap could have happened without those things. In the end everybody abused it, but you have to root out the CAUSE.[/quote]

There could be differing opinions on that. I don’t recall Rich saying that GSE’s had much to do with it. (I thought he placed primary responsibility with the rating agencies.) If he did blame it on the GSE’s, he’s wrong. And I’m pretty sure tht what I said was that Paul predicted it would be the GSE’s, not the Fed. (They really are different entities. And even moreso when Paul predicted the housing bubble.)

And probably more important, it wouldn’t be a lie if I thought it was the truth, even if I was incorrect. A lie is intentionally telling an untruth. It was intentional. And it was the truth. Ergo, no lie. Keep trying.
