There was an excellent article on the Bush administration's ignoring many of the warning signs of the housing collapse in this weekends New York Times. It's highly recommended reading to get a sense of what happened. I should also note that the White House has called out the Times for poor reporting on this, however having read the article I would believe the Times over the White House. Many of the facts that they quote in the articles are clearly substantiated elsewhere and not solely from dissenters with an axe to grind.
