“I want [Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae] to help with affordable housing, to help low-income families get loans and to help clean up this subprime mess. Otherwise, why should they exist?”

How on earth does getting more loans help clean up the subprime mess? The loans are the problem! Somebody get this guy a book!

I could see the lefties pushing, and getting all sorts of things.

A moritorium on new building, until the oversupply is sucked up.

They’ll say it will be cheaper, and protect the children and the communities if the Fed’s just buy like half the value of these morgages. They’ll explain that temporary housing, dislocation will cost more.

And, so forth. Basically any argument works. After all these are lawyers that will pound the table.

Meanwhile, limpwrist RINO’s will titter and do nothing and get rolled by white elite guilt. The Bushs and Mitt come to mind.

They will start talking about quadrillions, but quadrillions don’t buy what they used to. Why, I remember my grandpa telling us how you could buy a whole army for a trillion dollars. Now a trillion can’t even buy a couple banks.

No the RINOS will beg for favors just like in Atlas Shrugged. Did you hear about Paulson begging on his knees to Pelosi.

And still the stupid American voters and most of the marxist MSM are blaming the Republicans for this mess, as reflected is the rising poll numbers for The Obamanation. Well, I’ve just about had it. Most of these idiots will be the first ones to feel the pain when the donk’s implemennt even more Marxist policies. Screw ‘em, they deserve what they are going to get with their moronic thoughtless voting. Me and mine will weather the storm. Most of them won’t.

And this in the Boston Herald? Perhaps this might gain some traction in the mainstream media after all. Maybe.

Don’t count on it. This is one little tiny spot of light in the black pit of the donk’s fully marxist propaganda machine aka the MSM.
