"The experts said the Bachmanns bought a more expensive home using typical strategies during a time of easier credit. With their existing home still on the market, they assumed liability on the same day for the $417,000 mortgage and a $249,999 secured line of credit backed by the residence, records show. "

I wish Wapo would have scrutinized Barry like this prior to his annointment.

I also presume the Bachmanns had plenty of verified income and assets for their loans.

This is not the part of Fannie most of us have issue with.

Have we ever figured out who paid for Obama’s house in Chicago?

If this is the best the MSM can do against Bachmann, then I'll feel real good if she's the GOP candidate in 2012.

Supposed it had been the other way, that Bachmann had been cheering on Fannie and Freddie. Then she applied to them and got the deals they were shown to have gotten here.

Oh, humongous, humongous scandal!

No, more like stoney see-no-evil silence. If you’re a mediot, you can’t afford to lose a friend, even if the friend has an (R) by his or her name.

So what. I’m critical of the amount of money that’s wasted through corruption and ineficiency building and maintaining our highways but I don’t stick to dirt roads when I take a trip.

Experts who examined the loan documents for the Washington Post say they are confident the loan was backed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.

This is ridiculous - all loans at that time were purchased by the GSEs. And the Bachmanns had nothing to do with that - it was government policy.
