going...going...
Ah, yes, delivering the dream to the disadvantaged…then and now. Giving the poor an opportunity to have the dream without the slightest ability to pay for it. Bad policy to start with; bad oversight; bad leadership by the Congress and the President. Something for Nothing, huh?

“Fannie Mae is determined to keep tearing down the barriers to deliver on the American dream and that means we need to work together with the CBC. So many of you have been good friends to Fannie Mae and our mission. You’ve been friends through thick and thin. We have indeed come upon a difficult time for Fannie Mae. There is much to be done inside my company and I humbly ask you to help us and to help me. If there are areas where we are missing. If there are areas where we could do better, we’d like to hear it from our friends and I’d be so bold as to say our family first.
It is true that Fannie Mae has lent more money to more minorities and more underserved individuals than any single company in history.
We will work hard inside our company to resolve the serious matters before us to put our house in order and to forge a new future. And all the while you will see Fannie Mae reaching out and listening to the caucus. Over a century of endeavor you have earned the reputation as the conscience of Congress. In many ways I want to tell you today you are also the conscience of Fannie Mae. Keeping us on course to serve those who need serving the most.” (CEO Daniel Mudd, 2005 before CBC with Barack Obama present).
Something For Nothing (then) Worse than the greed of Enron or the S & L; this is corrupt social engineering with equal greed at the top~Obama’s direct associates. This really inceasingly pisses me off. Ok! Obama is pure sleaze! Enough. I don’t like this guy.
