A skit on the latest Saturday Night Live provided a humorous but comprehensive overview of the mortgage crisis. It started with joint speeches by a clueless President Bush, a condescending House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and a grossly lisping House Financial Services Committee Chairman Rep. Barney Frank. The Pelosi character introduced subprime victims, including two men who qualified for loans with no credit, no job, criminal records, drug problems and gambling problems. One said he was a double victim because now he was being charged with arson on his foreclosed home.
