Paulson: housing bill woes not insurmountable
Thu May 8, 7:39 AM ET
"I can't talk about a compromise now, other than the problems here are not insurmountable, and it's my job and others working for the president to get to a housing bill that is acceptable and one that he can sign," Paulson told Fox Business News in an interview from Kansas City, Missouri.
He said the bill as it is structured now would shift too much risk from financial institutions to taxpayers and it was unacceptable to make permanent an increase in loan limits for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac
