If a conservative republican had anything to do with Freddie and Fannie, there would have been a whole bunch of investigations by now and Obama would be talking about it in every speech.
Alot of people are not gonna want to hear this but Barrack is up to his eyeballs in this one and should be investigated acordingly. Pelosi is a disgrace.
They have been investigating many Republicans for two years and trying to find something politically damaging. Henry Waxman does nothing but investigations.
So now they don't want an investigation into the greatest financial debacle since the depression. So wonder who has stuff to hide?
I have NO use for a corrupt politician such as Nasty Pelosi, Harry Reid, Barney Frank, or Barrack Osama Bin Laden ....they are as corrupt as they come.
Obama worked for ACORN.....a partisan organization designed to milk the US political system for free handouts..... They are on the .gov payroll, but routinely campaign against Republicans....never a Democrat. They need to be investigated. Obama received sweet heart deals from Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac....actually he was the #1 receivor of donations from Fannie Mae / Freddie Mac......Obama is ALSO the one who asked for 100 MILLION dollars out of the 700 BILLION dollar handout....for ACORN.
I have no use for politicians these days....they ALL are corrupt.....

EXCLUSIVE: Pelosi paid husband with PAC funds
$99,000 for rent, utilities, accounting fees

EXCLUSIVE:
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has directed nearly $100,000 from her political action committee to her husband's real estate and investment firm over the past decade, a practice of paying a spouse with political donations that she supported banning last year.
Financial Leasing Services Inc. (FLS), owned by Paul F. Pelosi, has received $99,000 in rent, utilities and accounting fees from the speaker's "PAC to the Future" over the PAC's nine-year history.
The payments have quadrupled since Mr. Pelosi took over as treasurer of his wife's committee in 2007, Federal Election Commission records show. FLS is on track to take in $48,000 in payments this year alone - eight times as much as it received annually from 2000 to 2005, when the committee was run by another treasurer.
Lawmakers' frequent use of campaign donations to pay relatives emerged as an issue in the 2006 election campaigns, when the Jack Abramoff lobbying scandal gave Democrats fodder to criticize Republicans such as former House Majority Leader Tom DeLay of Texas and Rep. John T. Doolittle of California for putting their wives on their campaign and PAC payrolls for fundraising work.
Last year, Mrs. Pelosi supported a bill that would have banned members of Congress from putting spouses on their campaign staffs. The bill - which passed the House in a voice vote but did not get out of a Senate committee - banned not only direct payments by congressional campaign committees and PACs to spouses for services including consulting and fundraising, but also "indirect compensation," such as payments to companies that employ spouses.
