Lets get the facts straight for history sake.
The democrats caused the housing and financial crisis by having the utopian socialist dream that everyone should own a house. Jimmie Carter started the Community Housing Reinvestment act
[[sounds like a real great name doesn't it? typical ) in 1977 with his race based lending quotas to make all things equal in the democrats utopian mind. Fact: Billy Bob Clinton then added to the problem by additonal quotas and the having the liberal media put out the usual redlining stories to make people hate the racist evil lenders who would not make loans to people who could not afford loans. A typical Saul Alinsky rules for radicals tactic, demonize the enemy, which Clinton was famous for. Barneys Frank and Chris's Dodd both forced FNMA FMAC to also make loans to people who couldn't afford them and the government insured these bad loans with tax subsidized money.
Bush tried to halt the bad lending practices but the dems would not vote for it so nothing happened.
