This has nothing to do with politics. Obama got contributions from Lehman, why weren't they saved? The reason Fannie and Freddie were saved was to prevent a complete and total collapse of the housing market that would have led to an instant worldwide depression. Mcains top financial advisor was also fired for his direct involvement in the housing markets collapse. Do some real research and try to deny ignorance. People are too smart on this site to sympathize with your silly tirade.
