As the Iranian people struggle under Ahmadinejad's repressive regime, America cannot stay silent.

This is going to be hard. There is no magic bullet here.

I think it is important not to overreach. Uncertainty is an issue in the mortgage market.

Let me be very clear. We want the safest possible passenger rail systems.

I think that would be an error at this point. I would at least extend the conforming loan limits, current conforming loan limits for another year.

The most obvious policy step to facilitate more mortgage financing is rolling back the GSE's loan level pricing adjustments.

Isn't there a danger that the magnitude of the debt is already impeding economic growth?

That suggests to me that it is very dangerous to delay making meaningful reform.
