Political Factoid
"Governor Rick Perry (R-TX) offered
$20 million in grants from the
taxpayers of Texas to Countrywide
and $15 million to Washington
Mutual Inc. as he took in tens of
thousands of their dollars for
his gubernatorial campaign."
-- [emphasis added]
Countrywide and Washington Mutual were in
the heart of the risky mortgage and foreclosure
fiasco which imploded in 2008.
