Fannie Mae-No Politics (FNMA)

[ReadyToRumble]

Well, they couldn't just end the nws themselves back then without creating a congressional shitstorm. Think about it... they've been using the money they've been stealing to fund all sortsa stuff including Obama care. What they needed was time to ween the government off the Frannie nipple. Remember when Watt started talking about FnF retaining earnings? Warner and Corknutz took him into a back room and let him have it. Ya never heard him mention it again. Warner was pretty well behaved at yesterday's hearing, all things considered.
As for appealing to the scotus? Just another example of not taking what he says at face value. Highly likely that the Treasury won't go that route.
