Frank: Abolish Fannie and Freddie (You have to see it to believe it)
Fox ^ | Today | Cavuto/Fox

Posted on 08/17/2010 10:02:05 PM PDT by jessduntno

The Mother of all lies and weasel words. Baghdad Bob would blush at this.

If you can stomach listening to him, you will see where the left is headed...they were blameless and held under the thumb of Republicans. Bawney tells us how he fought against Fannie and Freddie, but could not overcome the evil Bush. You need to get to the end for the repugnant old Bawney Fwank style to peep through the substance.

If only we had a cohesive political party to counter attack ... the door is open. I hope the RINO's all head to the Great Watering Hole in the sky and Paul Ryan gets ahold of this tape and somehow gets a pulpit.

Cavuto was speechless - OR - led him into a bear trap.

Remember this?

I think this is a case where Fannie and Freddie are fundamentally sound, that they are not in danger of going under. They’re not the best investments these days from the long-term standpoint going back. I think they are in good shape going forward. - Barney Frank on CNBC; July 14, 2008

Sorry. Forgot to format the Frank quote that seems to contradict EVERYTHING he said in the interview:

"I think this is a case where Fannie and Freddie are fundamentally sound, that they are not in danger of going under. They’re not the best investments these days from the long-term standpoint going back. I think they are in good shape going forward." - Barney Frank on CNBC; July 14, 2008

I hear you brother.

How the Community Redevelopment Act and how Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were administered set the stage for the sub-prime melt-down. Dems pushed their social engineering policies on the mortgage markets and ruined the financial system.

Welcome to Marx-o-nomics.

WAKE UP AMERICA



Blessed are the young, for they will inherit the national debt.

How can the dems be blameless when they have been in charge cheating, lying, stealing and thugging all the way?

He realizes that with the new Congress, the criminal investigation of him, Raines, Gorelick and the other insider Democrats that controlled Fannie and Freddie will begin. He’s trying to distance himself from indictment.

The little #&^%#@! can run, but I hope he will not be able to hide when things go our way in November.....At least I hope so if there is any justice left in this country.
