Bush's Last 100 Days the Ones to Watch
By Jesse Jackson
Bush and Vice President Cheney represent a failed conservative
era -- and they know it. As the administration moves into its last
100 days, there seems to be a flurry of activity: regulations to
forestall Obama's new era of accountability; a flood of contracts
to reward friends and lock in commitments; a Wall Street bailout
that is pumping money out the door.

"Here is what we do know. One, real estate values have tanked.
Two, more than 4 million American homeowners with a mortgage
were at least one payment behind on their loans at the end of June,
and 500,000 had started the foreclosure process. That is probably a
historically high 1 in 10 “problem loan” rate. Over the past 10 weeks,
Fannie Mae says it has received more than 40,000 defaulting loans
and stopped 80% of them from going into foreclosure. And, three,
20% of U.S. mortgage borrowers owe more on their loans during the
third quarter than their house was worth as foreclosures depressed
prices and the economy weakened."
The above paragraph is a brief extract from the following extensive
analysis of mortgage problems, government guarantees and their pitfalls.
