    That's pretty funny since Fannie and Freddy published the mortgage lending guidelines. Not exactly ignorance.

    So you're saying that Fannie and Freddie actually told the banks and real estate lenders to make all those bad loans, yeah sure. Pft!

    The Republicans will then offer there own plan in Response and then blame the intransegence of the Democrats when the economy sinks, as it would anyway if we signed off on the Dems stupid plan.

    Yes, because the Republicans are the answer to all our woes.

    The entire democratic party stopped them in their tracks. Frank and Dodd merely made the most noise

    Banks had no concern if a loan is good or bad, when Fannie and Freddie are willing to buy the day after they make the loan

    Your dishonesty, and the dishonesty of the banks and Wall Street, is the problem, not the solution.

    Do you really not get it, or are you being dishonest too?

    no, I really don't get it. You just made a post about millionaires and billionaires, yet can't get off the throat of the guy making a few hundred grand.

    What the he'll you babbling on about now? What is it you don't understand? Fannie and Freddie set the standards for making home loans. They agreed to buy any loans the banks made that complied with those standards. Had Fannie and Freddie set more stringent standards, the banks would have met those standards.
