In accordance with the mission of Fannie Mae to enable home ownership by a greater proportion of the population, Franklin Raines, while Chairman and CEO, began a pilot program in 1999 to issue bank loans to individuals with low to moderate income, and to ease credit requirements on loans that Fannie Mae purchased from banks. Raines promoted the program saying that it would allow consumers who were "A notch below what our current underwriting has required" to get home loans. The move was intended in part to increase the number of minority and low income home owners.[15] Some observers have noted that the expansion of easy credit to home buyers with a lesser ability to pay them back was one of the major contributing factors to the subprime mortgage crisis....

" I just found out how Obama is going to lose this election. I just talked to the Obama headquarters about holding a protest for McCain when he comes to town. Here is what I was told....We are not going to do that. We want to keep our campaign positive and not respond to the negative comments coming from their campaign...Ghosts of Kerry anyone???? "

" One way to explain the difference!!!!
On television today a Democratic operative pointed out that when Obama
holds a rally 25-30,000 people show up, whereas when McCain holds one he
only draws 10-15,000.
The Republican spokesman replied, 'That's because McCain's supporters
are at work.' "

" When I'm not busy pounding down an ice cold, refreshing Old Style, I support Palin/McCain.
Although, I'm not sure about my tax dollars being used to buy up bad mortgages owned by bankers that drink champagne, and I'm not talking about Miller High Life, the champagne of beers, I'm talkin' about the real good stuff that bars hand out for free on New Year's Eve! Furthermore, I don't want my tax dollars saving my neighbor's home because he drinks that crap they call beer, Old Milwaukee!
I wonder what ever happened to that old lady that did the "where's the beef," commercials?
Palin/McCain 2008 Palin/Huckabee 2012 "

" Twilite; are you seriously telling us that a person who votes for a democrat doesn't value or love his family? Grow up! What do you think Palin is on the ticket for. I think she's putting on a bigger show than Obama! "

" I will be floored if the McCain campaign's efforts in Wisconsin do anything to make him more compettitive with Obama. People are just starting to realize that he has no viable plan for managaing the economic crisis, and Palin is seen as more of a joke every day. Worst possible VP choice, talk about wishing you could have that decision back. "

" You will be suprised how many people who vote for Obama also have jobs, take a day of vacation and go see you're boy. It will be a little disappointing though since he's not bringing his trophy canidate. "

" Selecting Palin as Vice President automatically disqualifies McCain to be President. Could he have made a worse choice? Bad judgement. "
