“Do the records suggest he made contributions to Demrat causes and campaigns?”

I don't think it's possible to get an executive position with Freddie or his ugly sister Fannie otherwise.

Actually, he donated to the Republicans in June 2008. Moffett was a regular donor to the Republicans before he worked at Freddie. Maybe these guys were brought in to be sacrificial lambs, realized it and are/were trying to extricate themselves. They did release a statement to the effect that Freddie was looking out for the Govt. vs. the shareholders???
