The Conservative national "war" to "take back America" began in earnest after the 2006 elections. That election saw the Democrats win back the Senate and the House. Nancy Pelosi took power in the House and Harry Reid became the Senate's leader. Both proved to be among the most partisan congressional leaders in history. The 110th Congress spent its time bashing Bush while shirking its responsibility as watchdogs over the nation's economy. Barney Frank, the toothless gay finance leader in the house joined Chris Dodd, Senate finance chairman, in ignoring the developing crisis that was the housing industry we know and love as "Affordable Housing." While most called the exploding crisis the "sub-prime" crisis, I simply call it the "Affordable Housing Crisis."

What folks miss with regard to "Affordable Housing," as a national social politcy, is that it was based in the pursuit of the notion that "all Americans deserve the right to own their own home." George W Bush bought into this notion as well as many within the GOP Establishment
