Bailing out investors from the Bush era of the "Ownership Society"? Anybody remember that, or how the GSE's were manipulated into making shaky loans to support it, courtesy of their "regulator", HUD? Or all the money that mortgage brokers and investment bankers raked in selling deregulated free market bunk to the GSE's?
What a great deal for the financial elite- buy Uncle Sam's bonds so he can pay off what the GSE's owe on your mortgage bonds... Win-win!
Thats right. Because Clinton certainly didnt do anything to fuel the fire *cough* American Homeownership and Economic Opportunity Act of 2000 *cough* and *cough* The National Homeownership Strategy: Partners in the American Dream *cough* and Bush is the one, not Clinton, who in 1994 told HUD Secretary Cisneros to come up with a plan for lower income people to quality for housing, and to relax HUD guidelines, also lets not forget Bush is the one who created credit default swaps....in the early 90's when he was working on his father's re-election campaign.
