Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac Bailouts where Obama may be aiding distressed homeowners has Washington buzzing today. Granted the rumors are wild, and we never thought the government would actually do it.

What does this mean?

Most importantly, exactly where will this money be coming from? They're having to look underneath the couch cushions now for coins.
