Jamie S. Gorelick
Commissioner
Jamie Gorelick is a partner at Wilmer, Cutler, Pickering, Hale & Dorr .
Prior to joining Wilmer, Cutler, Pickering, Hale & Dorr in July 2003, Gorelick was vice chair of Fannie Mae.
As part of the four-person Office of the Chairman, she shared responsibility for overall management of the company, directed its efforts to reach underserved markets and oversaw Fannie Mae's external relationships, legal and regulatory affairs.
Prior to joining Fannie Mae in May 1997, Gorelick was deputy attorney general of the United States, a position she assumed in March 1994.
From May 1993 until she joined the Justice Department, Gorelick served as general counsel of the Department of Defense.
General counsel in the defense department -- the very organization that told the DIA NOT to contact the FBI...most likely at her direction. I sure hope she gets called up to congress to testify under oath. Now that is a hearing I will watch -- even if I have to take the day off work (although I could always just video stream the hearings to my desktop at the office)!. This is an outrage.....I wonder if the other commissioners are embarrased by this, or will simply roll over and once again state how much they respect Ms. Gorelick. What did Ben Vineste know and when did he know it???

Gorelick sure did a fine job at Fannie Mae :-( Another Enron from a finanacial management standpoint. Didn't she receive generous bonuses based on Fannie Mae performance that is now believed to be from questionable accounting practices? Last I read the current estimate of Fannie Mae creative accounting is to the tune of $11 Billion, and counting.
