The Wall Street Journal, along with other conservative publications, have been yelling about Fannie and Freddie for years as a potential time bomb. Now that it is exploding, I wonder if anyone will give them proper credit.
Calling all taxpayers: We are all homeowners now!

From the WSJ: “The government doesn’t expect the entities to fail and no rescue plan is imminent,” the Journal reported,

Is there any surer sign of an impending disaster than a reassurance from the White House that it doesn’t expect it to happen?
Here are a few other things the Bush administration didn’t expect:

*
Terrorists to fly airplanes into buildings.
*
Saddam Hussein to have been telling the truth about not having any weapons of mass destruction.
*
Iraqis to object to a long-term occupation by a foreign power.
*
Hurricane Katrina.
*
People in New Orleans to object to the government’s response to Hurricane Katrina.
*
The Democrats to take control of Congress.
*
The Democrats to cave in so easily on important issues after they took control of Congress.
*
Scooter Libby to get caught.
*
Jack Abramoff to get caught.
*
Abu Ghraib to be discovered.
*
Scott McClellan to smell the coffee.
*
The housing bubble.
*
The credit bubble.
*
The housing collapse.
*
The credit squeeze.
*
Bear Stearns to fail.
