Hawkeye2009 nailed it; social engineering at its worst, and all in the name of a horrendously misguided entitlement courtesy of the President known in some corners as 'Slick Willie', and his two HUD secretaries, one of whom is now the governor of New York, as well as Chris & Barney & Maxine & Jesse & Reverend Al & all the rest.....

Oh look, the Republicans tried investigating Fannie in 2004 but were stonewalled by the Democratic members of Congress. Keep in mind that this was when BUSH supposedly ran everything.

Let's see,

Waters-Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington (CREW) named Waters to its list of corrupt members of Congress in its 2005, 2006 and 2009 reports. Waters was charged by the House's subcommittee on ethics with violations of the House's ethics rules in 2010.She is expected to face an ethics trial in the fall of 2010 (ala Rangel)

Meeks-In late 2009, and ongoing in 2010, Greg Meeks has been investigated by a House ethics committee on loans with New York State Temporary President Malcolm Smith and the local Jamaica Rev. Floyd Flake. Meeks has also been investigated about his mortgage loans to a Guyanese immigrated real estate tycoon Edul N. Ahmad of Century21 Ahmad Realty and Ace Mortgage, Inc. Meeks has denied this, although being investigated by the New York State Attorney General's office and the House Ethics Committee. There is so far, as of July 15, no primary challenger or general election challenger to challenge Meeks.

Frank- We all know how Frank was telling people to invest in Fannie until the month it collapsed. Need I say more?

These are the criminals running this country.

Keep in mind that in 2004, Republicans controlled every House and Senate committee and were the majority in congress. Nothing got through those committees w/o Republican approval. Nothing was implemented w/o Republican votes since they were the majority on each of those committees.

Here's one congressional criminal about to receive his just rewards...

Former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay has been sentenced to serve three years in prison "for his role in a scheme to illegally funnel corporate money to Texas candidates in 2002."

Three-Year Prison Sentence For Tom DeLay : The Two-Way : NPR

You do recall that Tom Delay was the GOP House Majority leader a few years ago, right?
