I dont know why Democrats or Liberals, find it so hard to look back into history to see what the facts are surrounding our current problem with F & F Mac. The LA Times wrote in 1999 that the whole "affordable housing" deal in the 1990s was one of The Clinton Administrations secret weapons.

Here is the BUsh administration since 2001 trying to get legislation passed on F & F Mac and Barney Frank and Chuck Schumer fighting it.

My how history and facts never back up Democrats.

Are you getting the same feeling I am? People are tired of Bush creating his own catatophies knowing full well they are coming and waiting until an election and then run out and threaten Americans with gloom and doom OR ELSE?

They did the exact same thing in the lying leadup the Bush's war in Iraq.

Personally I think Bush and Cheney have made their own beds.. now they should be made to sleep in them.

Democrats didn't have contol of the house or senate during the times you have quoted. So who really prevented these bills from being passed? As a matter of fact i believe Republicans even had filibuster proof vote as well. Ill double check that for you and get back to you.

I agree in part but the dems have some blame here too.

The democrats have created this mess and if Obama is elected it will only get a lot worse.

Teeko im starting to loose faith in your abilities to discuss the issues. Both parties have stake in the mess that we are in right now, its not down to any particular party. What can be known is that if Bush/McCain had interest in stoping this in 01/05 they could have gotten measure put through the REPUBLICAN CONGRESS!

A Republican controlled congress and Senate during 6 long unregulated years, with absolutely zero OVERSIGHT created this mess.

Face it greedy Republicans screwed America hard.

No, I am getting the feeling however, that most people on these sites have no interest of talking about facts, just wanting to play the gotcha game or totally not wanting to deal with any kind of facts at all.

Just blame Bush. And why not? For the last 8 years that is all they have done.

And if the democrats would have done their job and not gone on vacation something could have been done alot sooner. The democrats have had two years to sort this out instead they have spent the last two years making it worse.
