Why do people think that Clinton put the CRA on steriods in 1999?

pushing Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to increase the number of sub-prime loans?

In fact F&F were barely players in the market. Here is an article from Bloomberg, but any research into this will say the same:

"virtually none of the $1.5 trillion of cratering subprime mortgages were backed by Fannie or Freddie. That’s right — most subprime mortgages did not meet Fannie or Freddie’s strict lending standards. All those no money down, no interest for a year, low teaser rate loans? All the loans made without checking a borrower’s income or employment history? All made in the private sector, without any support from Fannie and Freddie. "

And by the way. No one who blames F&F is messagable here.
