I'm no financial guru (shocking I know), but why is no one mentioning the fact that some of the people (Barney Frank etc.) were downplaying the problem in '04 was receiving kickbacks in the form of campaign contributions? Some members of the house and even John McCain was saying this very thing may happen, yet were told there was nothing wrong. I just don't see how "cooking the books" so to speak should equal a government bailout.
