Sorry but the financial crash was the Republicans' fault including Bush. They COULD have defunded Freddie and Fannie without the Democrats permission but they chose not to.

FR thread on this graph.

Fundamental problem with that graph:

Fiscal Year 2009 was NOT President Bush. It was passed by Nancy Pelosi’s House and Harry Reid’s Senate on February 23, 2009 and signed into law by President Obama on March 13, 2009. President Bush had nothing to do with FY2009’s budget - yet your graph says it’s his.

Sorry, when you get basic facts wrong, then the rest is under suspicion as well.

Very good.

The path that leads out of this bamboozled criminal fiasco goes directly through Truth and ACCOUNTABILITY.

What do you mean “defunded it”? “Funding” wasn’t the issue, and that would not have made the loans go away.
