That's a tired, worn out, inaccurate argument.
If you're going with that, then you have to say that Bush inherited it
from Bill Clinton and Barney Frank. The Bush administration tried to
warn about the eminent Fannie/Freddie collapse 18 times over several
years. You can watch the hearings on youtube and see how Frank and his
cohorts tried to demonize the alarm ringers as racists and fear mongers,
saying "there's nothing wrong with Fannie/Freddie" over and over again.



Even more amazing is that NOW Barney Frank is acting like he never said
those things. His most recent rantings have been saying that the
Republicans were the ones who wanted everyone to own houses and he has been
saying that some people aren't going to be in a position to do that, so
they need affordable, quality rental housing.

The dems are the ones who keep throwing crap up against the wall to see
what will stick and old lying Barney's most recent rants are just
outrageous in terms of the complete hypocrisy of that wing of that party.
