I think urban crime is waaaaay down the list of national priorities, as most major cities have seen a decline over the last decade. b,121b,121Obama has continued today to tick up in polls... most notably registering results of +10 and +12 in Virginia.

    b,121
    b,121
    b,121This needs to be read till the end to see who these criminals works for
    b,121now and then sent to everyone's contacts to get this out to as many as
    b,121we can so all will know the truth.
    b,121
    b,1213 Men who brought down Wall Street...................
    b,121
    b,121Be sure to read the "where they are now"!!
    b,121
    b, 21Here is a quick look into 3 former Fannie Mae executives who have
    b, 21brought down Wall Street.
    b,121
    b, 211. Franklin Raines: was a Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at
    b, 21Fannie Mae. Raines was forced to retire from his position with Fannie
    b,121Mae when auditing discovered severe irregulaties in Fannie Mae's
    b,121accounting activities. At the time of his
    b,121
    b, 21departure The Wall Street Journal noted, " Raines, who long defended the
    b, 21company's accounting despite mounting evidence that it wasn't proper,
    b,121issued a statement late Tuesday conceding that "mistakes were made" and
    b,121saying he would assume responsibility as he had earlier promised. News
    b,121reports indicate the company was under growing pressure from regulators
    b,121to shake up its management in the wake of findings that the company's
    b, 21books ran afoul of generally accepted accounting principles for four
    b, 21years." Fannie Mae had to reduce its surplus by $9 billion.
    b,121
    b, 21Raines left with a "golden parachute valued at $240 Million in benefits.
    b,121The Government filed suit against Raines when the depth of the
    b,121accounting scandal became clear.
    b,121
    b,121
    /a1 . The Government
    b,121noted, "The 101 charges reveal how the individuals improperly
    b,121manipulated earnings to maximize their bonuses, while knowingly
    b,121neglecting accounting systems and internal controls, misapplying over
    b,121twenty accounting principles and misleading the regulator and the
    b,121public. The Notice explains how they submitted six years of misleading
    b,121and inaccurate accounting statements and inaccurate capital reports that
    b,121enabled them to grow Fannie Mae in an unsafe and unsound manner." These
    b, 21charges were made in 2006. The Court ordered Raines to return $50
    b,121Million Dollars he received in bonuses based on the miss-stated Fannie
    b,121Mae profits.
    b,121
    b,1212. Tim Howard: Was the Chief Financial Officer of Fannie Mae. Howard
    b,121"was a strong internal proponent of using accounting strategies that
    b,121would ensure a "stable pattern of earnings" at Fannie. In everyday
    b,121English - he was cooking the books. The Government Investigation
    b, 21determined that, "Chief Financial Officer, Tim Howard, failed to provide
    b,121adequate oversight to key control and reporting functions within Fannie
    b,121Mae,"
    b,121
    b,121On June 16, 2006, Rep. Richard Baker, R-La ., asked the Justice
    b,121Department to investigate his allegations that two former Fannie Mae
    b,121executives lied to Congress in October 2004 when they denied
    b,121manipulating the mortgage-finance giant's income statement to achieve
    b, 21management pay bonuses. Investigations by federal regulators and the
    b,121company's board of directors since concluded that management did
    b,121manipulate 1998 earnings to trigger bonuses. Raines and Howard resigned
    b,121under pressure in late 2004.
    b,121Howard's Golden Parachute was estimated at $20 Million!
    b,121
    b, 213. Jim Johnson: A former executive at Lehman Brothers and who was
    b,121later forced from his position as Fannie Mae CEO. A look at the Office
    b,121of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight's May 2006 report on
    b, 21mismanagement and corruption inside Fannie Mae, and you'll see some
    b,121interesting things about Johnson. Investigators found that Fannie Mae
    b,121had hidden a substantial amount of Johnson's 1998 compensation from the
    b,121public, reporting that it was between $6 million and $7 million when it
    b,121fact it was $21 million." Johnson is currently under investigation for
    b,121taking illegal loans from Countrywide while serving as CEO of Fannie
    b,121Mae.
    b,121
    b,121Johnson's Golden Parachute was estimated at $28 Million.
    b,121

    b,121Lord knows Daley has no long-standing allegiance to Obama???he hasn???t significantly helped Obama at any stage of his career. He didn???t endorse him during his successful bid for the state senate or his unsuccessful attempt to unseat Congressman Bobby Rush. He didn???t even back him in the 2004 Senate primary. Daley only endorsed Obama in the presidential campaign because he didn???t really have a choice???he had to look enthusiastic about the hometown guy, especially since he didn???t want to alienate black voters in last year???s mayoral election.
    b,121
    b,121What???s more, Daley has no problem getting cozy with Republicans. In fact, Patrick Ryan is a major Republican donor: he???s given more than $200,000 to the Illinois GOP over the last few years and hosted a fund-raiser for President Bush at his house in Winnetka. In the last year Ryan and his wife have donated thousands of dollars to the campaigns of McCain, Rudolph Giuliani, and Mitt Romney???and nothing to Obama. In 2006, though, he gave Daley $100,000.

    Sayin. When I read shit about McCain from less then reputable sources, even if I really, really want it to be true, I take 5 seconds to google it. Posting shit up and acting like "is this true???" when its already been debunked is lazy, transparent or both.

    people who keep thinking fannie and freddie are the 'root' of the problems on wall street really need to step it up. the only reason right wingers keep bringing up those two companies is bcuz those were the only examples of times when they were asking for more reform - and the reason they wanted reform of those two was because they were the only companies that were publicly owned, which right wingers hated bcuz they were providing low-income ppl w/ access to housing (see the CRA act of 1977) - low income ppl who had a much higher percentage of repayment than the ppl who were flipping condos in san diego and FL in order to make $$$b,121b,121fannie and freddie were responsible for sub prime shit also, but the regulation they DID have meant that they weren't nearly as bad as privately owned companies, which was what republicans wanted to turn them into in the first place.
