Then I guess that CEO was replaced cause here's a story from this summer...
Nothing will happen to Franklin Raines...

He is CURRENTLY barack Obama's econmonic advisor...

Wanna know about another former CEO of Fannie Mae?...

How about Jim Johnson...Who was Obama's selection to help find a VP candidate...

Until Obama had to throw him under the bus because he (Yup...the CEO of a government mortgage company) received mortgages from disgraced mortgage lender Countrywide through THEIR CEO at below market rates...

Also, And let's not forget the national finance chair of Barack Obama's presidential campaign Penny Pritzer, whose family's bank (she was the chairwoman) had to be seized by the FDIC and forced to pay $460 million toward the cost of the closure...

Now you know why it's so easy to say "It's Bush's fault" or "It's the Republicans' fault"...

They don't want Dorothy and her crew to pay any attention to that man behind the curtain...
