Romney: Big business is fine, helped by tax havens
“Big business is doing fine in many places,” Romney said during a campaign fundraiser Thursday.“They get the loans they need, they can deal with all the regulation. They know how to find ways to get through the tax code, save money by putting various things in the places where there are low tax havens around the world for their businesses.”

Wouldn't you think the middle class Reps. would realize that " trickle down" doesn't work?
Reagan and Bush I tried it and over doubled the nat. debt.
Clinton came in and was getting us back on track and then Bush II comes in starts it all over again and this times almost put us into a depression.
Well I guess we have to try it one more time, Maybe this time we can get into the largest depression we have ever had.

You mean the Republican Congress during the Clinton years got us on track and the people were too stupid to keep electing Republicans and gave control of Congress back to the Democrats during Bush II's years and the economic collapse came. The Democrats who would not reign in Freddie and Fannie allowed the economic collapse. The lesson to be learned is a vote for a Democrat is a vote for failure. By the way trickle down worked very well. People had jobs and spending money, what does not work is the trickle up poverty we have now. If you are concerned with debt that you must be really concerned with the 5 trillion plus Obama has added and the forecast that if Obama is re-elected the National debt will be 20 trillion or more.

YOU mean electing the DEMs 7 years AFTER BUSH II was in office?
Sorry to tell you we were already on the slide when they were elected.
The Rep.s Had complete control of the GOV. from 2001 to 2008.
Go back and look up just what happened in those years.
Why didn't your Rep.s do something about Freddy and fanny? they had control of the Gov. for several years before the housing bubble bust.
and why when they were looking into this mess did they put the MINORITY leader of that Comm. on the stand ?
Where was the MAJORITY leader?
Just like everything else if it is a good thing the REPs want all the credit if something goes wrong [ and it was their fault] they blame the Dems
Have a nice day

Wrong again....

Ben Bernanke, chairman of the Federal Reserve, is mobilizing to placate Democrats in Congress who claim he is not doing enough to crack down on predatory lending.

John, yes you are wrong again. How many times do you need to be corrected before you pay attention to your second grade teacher.

Johnny you sure do like to wallow in your ignorance.

Fannie and Freddie are "government-sponsored enterprises" (GSEs), chartered by Congress. As such, they had an implicit promise of taxpayer backing and could borrow money at rates well below competitors.

Because of this, the Bush administration warned in the budget it issued in April 2001 that Fannie and Freddie were too large and overleveraged. Their failure "could cause strong repercussions in financial markets, affecting federally insured entities and economic activity" well beyond housing.

Mr. Bush wanted to limit systemic risk by raising the GSEs' capital requirements, compelling preapproval of new activities, and limiting the size of their portfolios. Why should government regulate banks, credit unions and savings and loans, but not GSEs? Mr. Bush wanted the GSEs to be treated just like their private-sector competitors.

A blog from the Murdoch owned WSJ? lol

Don't you have something from Fox News directly or something from YouTube?

President Bush today said he'll make changes in Federal Housing Administration policies to help homeowners affected by the subprime mortgage crisis. Bush said he would work toward modernizing and improving the FHA "by lowering down payment requirements, by increasing loan limits and providing more flexibility in pricing."

Administration officials also announced that the program would be altered to let an extra 80,000 homeowners with less than perfect credit sign up for FHA loans, well above the 160,000 borrowers expected to take the loans this year and next.

New Agency Proposed to Oversee Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae

Single-Page

The Bush administration today recommended the most significant regulatory overhaul in the housing finance industry since the savings and loan crisis a decade ago.

Under the plan, disclosed at a Congressional hearing today, a new agency would be created within the Treasury Department to assume supervision of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-sponsored companies that are the two largest players in the mortgage lending industry.

Just shows how racist they are. If 100% of whites said they would not support Obama it would be an up roar. Proves there is racism in America and the racists are BLACK. That is something for the Blacks to be ashamed of not proud of.

They booed Romney at NAACP only after he said he was going to end Obamacare. I guess the racists don't understand obamacare is not free.

Fannie and Freddie: As ranking member of the House Financial Services Committee, Frank blocked tightened oversight over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, saying in 2003,“These two entities … are not facing any kind of financial crisis,” and,“I want to roll the dice a little bit more in this situation towards subsidized housing.” More than any other factor, the 2008 financial meltdown was caused by pushing these government-sponsored enterprises to encourage housing loans to risky borrowers. Thanks a lot, Barney.

Democrat Chris Dodd was involved in issues related to the federal takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac during the 2008 subprime mortgage crisis

'We all should have done a better job." So said Senator Chris Dodd yesterday in discussing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, in what ought to go down as the understatement of the young 21st century.

Daily Horoscope for May 26

Cancer

You're in the mood to enjoy yourself today, so anything resembling hard work will come a long way down your list of priorities. However, other people may not share your views and will wonder why you aren't busily doing your bit. Try not to fall foul of a boss or superior because you aren't working hard enough. Far better to get the work out of the way and then have fun, because then you can enjoy yourself with a clear conscience.
