Let's Play, "Name That Fibber!"

Who made the below two statements?


1 "The more people, in my judgment, exaggerate a threat of safety and soundness (of Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae), the more people conjure up the possibility of serious financial losses to the Treasury, which I do not see. I think we see entities that are fundamentally sound financially and withstand some of the disastrous scenarios. And even if there were a problem, the Federal Government doesn't bail them out. But the more pressure there is there, then the less I think we see in terms of affordable housing." (2003)

a Fibber McGee
b Molly
c George Bush
d Dick Cheney
e Unidentified lunatic in an insane asylum
f Barney Frank

If you guessed "f", you're a winner!!! (If you guessed "c" or "d", you're a Democrat. If you guessed "a" or "b", you're a really old fart.)

2 "We do not have a crisis at Freddie Mac and particularly Fannie Mae under the outstanding leadership of Frank Raines" (2004)

a Fibber McGee
b Molly
c Bernie Madoff
d Frank Raines
e Unidentified lunatic in an insane asylum
f Maxine Waters
