But I must take exception to a point he makes. The fact of the matter is that political correctness - political momentum - is at the root of this all. Specifically, the desire to give mortgages to those without the credit standing to service them. Those who stood in the way of that were called either racist or elitist. And so we had EZ credit. Thank you Barney Frank. Thank you Al Sharpton. As I understand it, Sen. McCain warned of this several years ago. I will attempt to find the reference. Meanwhile, as Sen. Obama pontificates and promises........know this: he accepted over $300K from Freddie and Fannie lobbyists, second only to Sen. Chris Dodd. That's called blood on your hands.
