NOW the media notices?Sept. 14, 2007
Former Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan says the Republican
party to which he has belonged all his life deserved to lose power
last year for forsaking its small-government principles. Greenspan
delivers the withering critique in his memoir, "The Age of Turbulence:
Adventures in a New World."
In the book, scheduled for public release Monday, Greenspan writes
that he advised the White House to veto some bills to curb "out of
control" spending while the Republicans controlled Congress. He says
President Bush's failure to do so "was a major mistake." Republicans
in Congress, he writes, "swapped principle for power. They ended up
with neither. They deserved to lose."
