Isn't That interesting

Some trolling around the internet to research something I heard on the radio found some neat facts.... Looks like McCain tried to reform Fannie Mae. It seems he and a few others saw the writing on the wall and tried to CHANGE things 4 years ago with Senate Bill 190 He was shut down as the last thing you would want to do is have accountability in Washington. Yeah why would someone want to shut it down well there are allot oh people with financial interest in Freddie and Fannie remaining as is and the proof is in the paper trail. Note the list encompasses 19 years of contributions:
