It is absolutely unconscionable that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, which were at the heart of the subprime housing collapse last fall that sent our economy into a tailspin, should be without independent oversight at a time when the federal government now owns over half of all the mortgages in the United S...
Fannie and Freddie are awfully big ... The idea that the agency responsible for conservatorship of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac doesn't have an inspector general should be a serious cause of concern.
We are not having a problem with end loans for our buyers. Many financial institutions are in the market; nevertheless, unless a project has sales of 50 percent or more, [Federal Housing Administration] and Fannie Mae options are not available in these developments.

Given the lack of a private secondary mortgage market, FHA, Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are pretty much the only game in town ... Extending the current loan limits through 2010 will allow more loans to qualify for these important programs and will help keep mortgage credit more accessible and affordable ...

Those who believe the taxpayer losses would be recouped from the financial industry, I would direct them to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and GMAC, where the prospects for full taxpayer repayments are fanciful

Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, and Ginnie Mae now own or guarantee an overwhelming share of originations
