• Democrats responsible for current state of economy
  I am writing today because I am very concerned about the state of our economy and the direction we are headed just four weeks from Election Day. The Republican Party is taking quite a bad hit for the state of our economy right now and I believe the Democrats are the ones to blame in late 2004. Republicans Richard Baker, Ed Royce, Christopher Shays, and Don Manzullo testified before a committee on the status of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. They expressed their deepest concerns about both Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae were in trouble at that point. Armando Falcon from the office of federal housing oversight commission also tried to weigh in on his concerns. Their efforts were thwarted by Democrats Maxine Waters, Gregory Meeks, Lacy Clay, Artur Davis, and Barney Frank. Frank Raines was also a speaker during this hearing in which he said there were no problems.
