ken...."I think it is shocking that the regulators or lack of regulation would allow the situation to become this critical? Where is the SEC? What have they been doing? How could it get this bad without the public knowing? How many others are out there?".....

I don't believe this situation happened overnight and both political parties can equally share the blame.... for starters have a look at who is in control of Fannie mae.

There could be many others out there....who knows.

Congress oversees the SEC. Ask Pelosi and Reid.

Aguirre's allegations have caught the attention of some politicians, because Congress ultimately oversees the SEC via the Senate Banking Committee and the House Financial Services Committee.
