If this is true it is just another thorn removed from the Bush Adminstration.Is it true that the head of HUD is stepping down due to scandal?
How could these things happen under Bush:





Help families keep their homes and revitalize the Federal Housing Administration;


Transform public housing;


Increase and preserve affordable housing;


Help rebuild the battered Gulf Coast following the 2005 hurricanes;


Increase minority homeownership; and


Reduce chronic homelessness.





Oh, the horror...
HUD is - and has always been - a scandal.





';Hey, the slumlords really aren't creating enough ghettos and decay in the inner city, we should step in and screw it up ourselves!';
I remember hearing something to that effect during the clinton administration, but i have yet to hear it about Bush's HUD Secretary. Of course, I may be a little behind in today's news.
LOL, now all we need is the secretary of labor to step down and Bush has a 100% Cabinet resignation rate.








He already has set a record.
Business as usual in the Bush Admin.
