Romney falsely claimed he didn’t know he profited from mortgage crisis

Romney claimed against at last night's debate that he had no idea his "blind trust" had invested in Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and made a tidy sum of money from the mortgage lenders as they were foreclosing on Americans across the country. In other words, Romney profited from the mortgage crisis. National Journal did the fact check, and found out Romney wasn't telling the truth.  I won't quote it because it's not very long, go read it for yourself.  Bottom line: Romney claimed the investments were in a blind trust (something he's criticized before) and they weren't.
