Since I worked for Lehman's back in the day, I was sad to see them go like the way they did. They are, or were, a great firm and was a very prestigious organization.
Now that Lehman's, the biggest player in the credit default swap market, has sunk just watch and wait as all the other players in the CDS market begin to fall. This is just the beginning folks. Just the tip of the ice burg.

So let me get this right, according to the article, in Fannie Mae's 70 years of existence, it did not become corrupt until the Clinton administration which Bush inherited?
It only takes one bad apple (or two) to spoil the bunch...
thats how the repubs always lie and spin shit, its just like they try and say that Bush inherited a deficit from Clinton when we know there was nearly a 200 bilion dollar surplus.
i cant stand the right wing extremist
I wish we had a right wing still around, the repubs have turned into democrats and the democrats into socialists. I feel Reagan was the last right winger we had, it's a shame his party did not stay true.
If you don't believe the democrats are turning socialist just look back to September 13, 1994 and see what happened that date.

I was pissed when they arrested Johnny Depp for trashing a hotel room that day too! It was totally crazy!
It was a day that our rights were violated, thank ALLAH the rights came back. But there is a risk we could lose them again, and even more with them. It is only by the grace of ALLAH we live so free.

The Second Amendment (Amendment II) to the United States Constitution is a part of the United States Bill of Rights that protects the pre-existing individual right to possess and carry weapons (i.e. "keep and bear arms") in case of confrontation.[1] Codification of the right to keep and bear arms into the Bill of Rights was influenced by a fear that the federal government would disarm the people in order to impose rule through a standing army or select militia,[2] since history had shown the way tyrants eliminated resistance to suppression of political opponents was to simply take away the people's arms and make it an offense to keep them.
The don't want to ban guns to save lives, that is bullcrap! If they wanted to save lives they would ban cars.
Imagine if instead of banning a type of firearm based on the way it looks, they banned black people from owning guns. Oh wait, that is how it was done first in the US.
This is a clip of that article. Do you think they just wanted to keep people from killing other people?
When the first U. S. official arrived in New Orleans in 1803 to take charge of this new American possession, the planters sought to have the existing free black militia disarmed, and otherwise exclude "free blacks from positions in which they were required to bear arms," including such non-military functions as slave-catching crews. The New Orleans city government also stopped whites from teaching fencing to free blacks, and then, when free blacks sought to teach fencing, similarly prohibited their efforts as well.
