If the goal is affordable housing and preservation of the 30-year mortgage vehicle, why not support that with Fed mortgage capital at some advantaged rate at the discount window. This would be a lot less controversial than a government guarantee, partly because the risks get offset by lowered borrowing costs but also because default-driven risks remain the responsibility of the GSEs. They are only providing a cushion in interest costs to allow Fannie & Freddie to both recapitalize and build up reserves for any future systemic failures.
The Fed is not a governmental agency, so this also removes the risks of debt transferral to Uncle's tab under debt ceiling constraints. And the Fed's primary mantra of managing inflation's impact on monetary issues would only be enhanced by supporting low rates in what historically has been one of America's largest and safest investment areas... the real estate market.
