Like most Americans I was initially under the impression that responsibility lay at the feet of both the Democrats and the Republicans. But the deeper I dig into this, the more I realize that blame is clearly more on one side than the other. As the evidence surfaces, it is becoming clear that many Republicans, especially the Bush administration and Senator John McCain, tried to stop this from happening. The Republicans sought to investigate and regulate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac years ago, at least 12 times since the early 1990s. Even President Bill Clinton agreed with the Republicans and sought to get investigations and regulations underway. But every time these efforts were blocked by Congressional Democrats, and former President Clinton expressed his disgust about this in an interview with ABC on September 25th. He said Democrats for years have been "resisting any efforts by Republicans in the Congress or by me when I was President to put some standards and tighten up a little on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac."
A Vatican official recently labeled the U.S. Democratic Party as the "party of death," because of it's pro-abortion policy (read more here). Now it looks like we can add to that legacy the "party of debt" as well thanks to it's efforts to block reforms of the sub-prime lending practices of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.

It is worthy to note that Representative Barney Frank had a homosexual love affair with Herb Moses during the time in question. Moses worked at Fannie Mae from 1991 to 1998 and served as assistant director for product initiatives. This happened while Frank was on the House Banking Committee, which had jurisdiction over Fannie Mae, a clear conflict of interest.
