This report from Fox News showing a timeline of Republican efforts to rein in Fannie and Freddie, is a helpful reminder of who actually is to blame. Obama blames Wall Street fat cats while taking hundreds of thousand in campaign money, Barney Frank, Charles Schumer and Chris Dodd play dumb, forgetting that they were the hatchet men for organizations like Durham’s Center for Responsible Lending to help put political pressure on banks to make loans to minimum-wage workers so they could enjoy the “right” of homeownership, not worrying about whether they could be paid back. Look and remember:

The fact that more than 5 million people have viewed this might have something to do with the plummeting party identification of Democrats and the rise of Tea Party Nation.
