The flaw in the argument is that none of the mentioned former Freddie or Fannie Mae CEO's are currently in charge or presided over failures, and left with these firms solvent. It took Republican de-regulation (with help of some also corrupt Democrats) and presided over by McCain, Chairman of the Finance Committee, who had, and currently has regulatory authority over these firms. After 8 years, it's your painted pig.

Yes there were, they trucked them to Syria, you dizzy lying bitch:
TCP: The Iraq Survey Group is expected to file a comprehensive report soon on weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Reports indicate that it will conclude Saddam had no WMD. But you disagree with that belief. Why do you disagree and is it more likely WMD are still inside Iraq, or have they been moved?
DeLong: I think what the report will say is, just like everybody else has said, there is no proof there was WMD. There will be no definitive statement in this report. I can state, unequivocally, there was WMD in Iraq before and during the war. You have multiple-source intelligence. Also, from other Arab leaders – as Tommy Franks says in his book – King Abdullah said Saddam has WMD. President Mubarek of Egypt said you have to be very careful going in, because Saddam has weapons of mass destruction. Other leaders who have chosen not to be named said the same thing. We had technical intelligence that saw the same thing.
Two days before March 19, 2003, we saw quite a number of vehicles going into Syria. We could not go after them because we said we'd give Saddam 48 hours. A lot of (Iraqi) leaders went into Syria, and a lot of WMD went into Syria. We've gotten indications some went into Lebanon, and probably some went into Iran.
The size of Iraq is roughly, in square miles, the same size as California. Seven-eighths of the country is arid desert land. We've done calculations that you could probably bury 16 Eiffel Towers or Empire State Buildings and never find them in the desert. Just four months ago, they were digging for something out in the middle of the desert and they hit something. It was a MIG-25 Foxbat that the Iraqis buried in the sand. We never would have found this thing. Biological Weapons, you could put almost your whole program in a suitcase. You could probably put your whole chemical weapons industry inside a van. Yes, they did have it and right today they can't find it. The people we've captured, like Dr. Germ and Chemical Ali, the murderer of the Kurds, aren't talking.

« Did Obama Violate the Logan ActDemocrats Share Key Blame in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac From Carolyn Lockhead:
Obama needs a Sister Souljah moment to distinguish himself to independent and weak Republican voters who are agreeing with GOP claims that Obama is a classic liberal Democrat, and sliding right into the familiar ground of the culture wars. Obama has a golden opportunity with the U.S. financial system falling apart at the seams.
Congressional Democrats were and remain the leading defenders of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, promising to resist efforts to shrink the companies, now under government control, and sell off their assets. Democrats had plenty of help from Republicans, to be sure, but it was mainly conservatives who have been warning for more than a decade that their public risk/private profit model was a disaster waiting to happen.
This is exactly where the difference between Obama and McCain with regard to their ability to challenge the establishment in their own party is very important. It is Obama’s weakness and McCain’s strength.
Here is an issue where McCain could actually throw the Obama campaign’s “Do you want More of the Same?” mantra right back at them.
More on the Democrats involvement from A Tangled Web:
The Democrats aided Raines by refusing to hold hearings on Raines and Gorelicks fraud. Their actions have led to the collapse of this institution, putting the American taxpayer on the hook for 5.6 Trillion Dollars. We are the insurers of this institution.
Even today with the collapse of Fannie Mae when Republican Baynor called for hearings again Barney Frank refused. When you look at our Government run institutions Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and Fannie Mae. Not one of these is solvent. We the American public hold the bills due on this group of catastrophes to the tune of $59 Trillion.
Five years ago the Bush Administration attempted to head off a financial crisis that loomed ahead for Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae. As reported by the New York Times on September 11, 2003:
The Bush administration today recommended the most significant regulatory overhaul in the housing finance industry since the savings and loan crisis a decade ago.
Under the plan, disclosed at a Congressional hearing today, a new agency would be created within the Treasury Department to assume supervision of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the government-sponsored companies that are the two largest players in the mortgage lending industry.
The new agency would have the authority, which now rests with Congress, to set one of the two capital-reserve requirements for the companies. It would exercise authority over any new lines of business. And it would determine whether the two are adequately managing the risks of their ballooning portfolios.
The plan is an acknowledgment by the administration that oversight of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac - which together have issued more than $1.5 trillion in outstanding debt - is broken. A report by outside investigators in July concluded that Freddie Mac manipulated its accounting to mislead investors, and critics have said Fannie Mae does not adequately hedge against rising interest rates.
However, it was Congressional Democrats who fought tooth and nail to kill this new oversight.
Among the groups denouncing the proposal today were the National Association of Home Builders and Congressional Democrats who fear that tighter regulation of the companies could sharply reduce their commitment to financing low-income and affordable housing.
“These two entities - Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac - are not facing any kind of financial crisis,” said Representative Barney Frank of Massachusetts, the ranking Democrat on the Financial Services Committee. “The more people exaggerate these problems, the more pressure there is on these companies, the less we will see in terms of affordable housing.”

Gee...
And to think that after all these years there's not a single shred of evidence to back up any of his claims.
Only "intelligence" from the same people who brought us yellow cake, aluminum tube and miniaturized nuclear weapons.

Yea?
NGA imagery that verifies WMD were shipped to Syria and Iran?
Where is it?

They just keep recycling the same lies even though the sources are completely debunked. It is either dishonesty or stupidity, however these are not mutually exclusive character flaws.

He's been selling his recycled lies long after the sources were debunked. Of course, he will protest again and demand proof, only to repeat the cycle and pretend again.

Do you have the answer? If you do a LOT of experts want to talk with you...there still, after four investigations, isn't a definitive answer. Even the National Geographic investigation in 1999 came to the conclusion that it was a mine in the harbor that lead to the resulting magazine explosions. Experts say that we'll probably never know for sure.

The Republicans are desperately looking to blame somebody for all this. Somebody other than the guy ostensibly in charge (who has been granted unlimited Innocent Bystander status) and the guy who voted with him 90% of the time and who is currently running for his third term. Splitting George Bush, his economic policies and the current state of the economy into three separate, unrelated pieces without causing John McCain huge problems will require some serious mental acrobatics, but the Republicans are going to try it.

The current, and most likely explanation is a fire in a paint locker adjacent to one of the magazines.
The heat from the fire was transferred though the steel walls until the temperature got high enough to touch off the powder.

They are not facts if they are shown not to be. These old articles, debunked are still found archived on rightwind web sites, without mention that the article is in error, a proven lie or incorrect. See how that works? You can draw no valid conclusion when your premises are untrue.
