Q&A: Why is Obama blaming Wall Street executives for the economic crisis ?

Question by Jim R: Why is Obama blaming Wall Street executives for the economic crisis ?
For the most part, Wall Street was playing by the rules which were set and/or mandated by Congress. Why are Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, the Carter/Clinton Community Reinvestment Act, etc held blameless by this President-Elect? Moreover, why should we trust/allow these same politicians who helped to create the crisis to be tasked with solving the issue?

uh, maybe because they caused it and now they are flying to Washington DC on their private Lear jets, begging for handouts? Duh…
