kenny..."<<So what?>> So, Romney is knowingly benefitting from the bailout of Fannie Mae."...

From the article you posted....the investments were made in the latter half of 2007,

The Romney aide said the investment was made by Romney’s charitable trust.


So the bail out accured in...
The federal takeover of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac refers to the placing into conservatorship of government sponsored enterprises Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac by the U.S. Treasury in September 2008.

So looks like you are saying Romney..or the fund he put money into... new a bailout would occur a year or so after they they invested.

Romney did not..according to article you posted...invest the money directly but through a large fund that invests in many things...is that correct?
