Pelosi can go Probe herself for all I care
Pelosi should be investigated for abuse of power
Having failed miserably on the abortion issue, Collagen Woman takes on her party’s economic failures.
This is very dangerous territory for Democrats to delve into. The public may find out more than they want them to about Government subsidies and who got paid off from these deals.
OK! I can’t wait for Clinton to get dragged into this. It was Bubba who forced lenders to loan to “oppressed minority communities” or face legal action by the USDOJ. It is these criminally bad coerced loans that have created the mortgage problem, and thus the failure of investment banks. When do Bill and Hillary take the stand?
This is actually a good thing and Pelosi doesn’t even know it.
UNBELIEVABLE!! This b*tch..her day is coming, just wait.
The Bush Administration?
Whatever. Bush won’t say jack to take up for himself even though he’s the President and has the biggest bully pulpit in the world.
Will the Junior Senator from Illinois be called?
How about the Junior Senator from Connecticut?
Dodd and Obama are hip deep in this, and be sure to have Obama bring Franklin Raines and Johnson along with him won’t you?
Maybe a fellow FReeper can clarify.
Pelosi should order a probe of the Congress — if you want to find out where the epicenter of the rot is....
San Fran Nan
What an idiot, she better watch out s this whole thing could blow-up in her face
(Like i’d really care)
Gee, who has Congressional oversight here? Oh that’s right the Democrats.
Maybe it was an oversight, that’s why they have oversight committees.
And the MSM will carry this day after day in order to give the election to Obama and save congress for the democrats
As usual the democrats beat the GOP to the punch and go on the offense
I predicted 2 weeks ago when the unemployment numbers came out that the election is going to hinge on the economy
McCain should have been on the economy early so the democrats couldn’t pull their usual BS
Here’s a couple of articles that (in addition to other stuff) talk about the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act in 1999, and its impact on the housing market.

Here’s an article that talks about the oversight that the Bush Administration proposed in 2003.
I love the quote near the bottom by Rep. Barney Frank...
‘’These two entities — Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac — are not facing any kind of financial crisis,’’ said Representative Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. ‘’The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.’’
Dear Auntie Nan,
Be careful what you probe - it might be your own Dimocrat party that is found to be ultimately responsible for the meltdown.
F’n idiot.
If Nazi Pelosi wants to start with Obie’s economic advisor, little Frankie Raines, it’s fine with me.
Republicans need to grow some balls and go after her and the rats - the best defense is a good offense. Expose how the liberals were getting back room deals from Freddie and Fannie Mac. How the dems were pocketing from the fat cats on wall street how they gave them sweet deals and looked the other way.
Who the hell has been running congress for the last two years? The democrats - we need to take it to them and quit runnning from these filthy leftists. If the Republicans can get rid of the RINOs who will stab us in the back then we can expose the left for what they are - lying filthy racist hate filled communist baby killers.
Partisan witch hunt coming up.
The leftists will portray this as “all capitalism’s fault” when it’s the socialists in their party most responsible.
But the press will aid and abet the fraud to get their messiah elected and increase the power of the state to create more such messes as this.
