A letter to my CongressCritter in case anybody else would like to use it:

Sir,

The OFHEO recently reported that the Government Sponsored Enterprise Fannie Mae deliberately falsified its earnings in order to pay multi-million dollar bonuses to its executives.

Represenative Baker put it best when he recently stated, "The most disgusting revelation is that accounting tricks were used by a government-chartered enterprise with a government-sponsored public mission and a government-bestowed massive subsidy purely for personal gain and to pad executive compensation," Rep. Richard Baker (R., La.)

These entities have artificially inflated the value of American real estate by pumping ridiculous amounts of easy money into the mortgage market. Now, thanks to the collusion of many members of Congress, the entire financial system is at risk. (see Armando Falcon's OFHEO report on systemic risk).

When will the members of Congress who aided the reckless growth of the GSEs in exchange for campaign funds be held accountable for their actions?

Regards,

The title caused me some concern, I must say. And even some hope for pictures...

Isn't (or wasn't) 9-11 Commissioner Jamie Gorelick one of the tallest hogs at the trough over at Fannie Mae?

Fannie Mae was also involved in numerous SCAMS with General Developement (now defuct) in the state of Florida. It was part of mass fraud using over valued property appraisals with Fannie Mae's blessing. This was a full blown operation untill around early 1980's.
Cities included Port Charlotte, Port Marion, Port St. Lucie etc.

THE FANNIE MAE SCANDAL WILL TURN OUT TO BE WORSE THAN ENRON!
THESE PEOPLE MANIPULATED THE ACCOUNTING OF FANNIE MAE IN SUCH A WAY AS TO ALLOW IT TO PAY THE FOLLOWING SALARIES AND BONUSES IN 1998. WHAT THEY'VE BEEN DOING EVER SINCE 1998, ONLY GOD KNOWS!!! THE SCANDAL NVOLVES SOME OF THE FOLLOWING FANNIE MAE EXECUTIVES, MOST CLINTON APPOINTEES:

James A. Johnson, Chairman and Chief Executive, who, beginning in 1968, received $966,000 in salary and a $ 1,932,000 bonus. He is a close Kerry adviser and likely to be Secretary of the Treasury in a Kerry administration!!!

Jamie Gorelick, of 9/11 Commission fame, a Janet Reno lieutenant and advocate of separation of FBI from CIA, etc., that made it easy for terrorists to operate within us. She received $ 567,000 in salary plus a $ 779,625 bonus!!!

Other recipients of this unbelievable largesse with our money:

Franklin D. Raines, Chairman and chief executive designate $ 783,839 in salary and a bonus of $ 1,109,589.
The New York Times and/or The New York Post reported recently that he had cleared $ 20,000,000 this past year!

J. Timothy Howard, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial officer. He received $ 395,000 in salary and a $ 493,750 bonus!!!

Robert J. Levin, who as Executive vice president received $ 395,000 in salary and a $ 493,750 bonus!!!

THE NEW YORK TIMES IS RELUCTANTLY REPORTING THIS SCANDAL IN ITS BUSINESS SECTION, BEGINNING 9-24-04!!!!!

The Wall Street Journal has been harping on the Fannie Mae mess since at least '99.

Nice to see that the Justice Department is finally catching a clue.

A lot of people don't realize that Jamie Gorelick is a top rat with Fannie Mae. The link below provides a lot of articles of this rat and Fannie Mae.

JAMIE GORELICK.

I just don't want anyone to forget that name. She needs to join Martha Stewart for some "quiet time" in a jail cell.

I wonder if this will impact interest rates in any way. Or will it simply benefit Freddie Mac?

If Fannie Mae goes down, the entire US economy goes with it. The crooked Democrats at the top have much more plea-bargain leverage than the Enron execs did - they can turn Bush into Hoover II, just by telling the truth.
