What about FannieGate... or FreddieGate?

Those work. I think adding a 'gate' to it would be a decent idea. Its been a bit overused, but it would work.

I guess I like the "Fannie Mae Four" because it assigns individual blame, although the Democrat Congress at large had the full responsibility and shares the largest burden of blame imho.

I was being a bit tongue in cheek by doing what the drive-by media always seems to do :-) Since they aren’t too creative... or professional for that matter... it’s just easiest to add “gate” onto whatever word, and write it off as “good” journalism...stampgate, troopergate, Alaska-Russia geography-gate, etc.

Actually, I think the Fannie Mae Four is perfect. Unfortunately, it will be missed by most in the media... well, by most liberals in general. But we like it!!
