from TimesOnline:
France heaped pressure on Gordon Brown last night by floating an ambitious plan for a ¤300 billion (£237 billion) bailout fund to rescue crippled banks across Europe.
As the world held its breath on the fate of America’s $700 billion bank bailout plan, President Sarkozy was seeking the backing of European leaders for his own lifeboat.
Blurbat asks:
I have friends who think that George Bush and the Republicans caused the economic bank crisis...wait, so does Nancy Pelosi.
Banks have been failing in Iceland, England and now France is on board with a bail out. Here's my prediction, I'll ask my friend if this changes his mind about the problem. My bet is he'll say no.
It's -Bush/Republican/Bush/Republican/Bush/Republican/Bush/Republican who caused this crisis. You see, humans love a scapegoat. His demonization of Bush makes him feel better about the world and himself; can anyone doubt Rene Girard was spot on about violence and the scapegoat mechanism.
