My wife and I who have moved more than a few times have had a total of 6 mortgages in the past 30+ years and we’ve never been late even once although I was once unemployed for six months. These leeches make me want to puke. I’d move over the border to Canada if it wasn’t even more f**ked up than here just to get away from The One and his crap.

Buy all the ammo you can, I Hope, Change is coming soon!

I noticed a paucity of statistics backing up that claim.

I’m sorry, I’m not sure I see the problem with people who can’t afford the houses they’re living in getting kicked out on their deadbeat backsides and having the banks put them up for sale. There’s nothing wrong with a foreclosure, just like there’s nothing wrong with a bankruptcy now and then. I want the market back on the right track, even if it’s at the expense of poor Betty and Bob who feel the banks ‘misled’ them to believe they could afford a $500,000 house on $30,000 a year.

Overinflation of housing prices hurts me, personally, as I’m enough of a sucker to do the honest thing and try to actually buy a house that I can pay for during my lifetime. And, once I get one, I’ll be enough of a sucker to put my money towards my mortgage, rather than vacations, big screen tvs, or the latest fashions in clothing.

Now, me, I’m in Canada, and the market here has been hurt less because our banks are a bit more tight-fisted. But still, when the US sneezes, Canada catches a cold, and that worries me. As a result, I have precisely zero sympathy for people too dumb to realize that they can’t refinance their parents’ home five times, stop making payments and then continue to live there.

I think that’s enough ranting for me, I’ll open up the floor for the next in line.

I’m with Rush. The answer is Thanksgiving……..of 2099.

In other words, they will NEVER report the truth about the destruction of the economy and our country.

The most telling statistic comes from Media Matters. In the first 100 days, the msm did no once use the word “socialist” in their reporting. They used the word “liberal” one time….when quoting a conservative.

From the perspective of hiding the truth, their track record is perfection itself.

And 60-80% of the country gets all of their news from the msm, if you include jon stewart and stephen colbert.

It’s kind of hard to tell what the guy is talking about so I’ll simplify it:

Unemployment is exceeding the frightening estimate of what your loving government projected for “NO STIMULUS”, no matter rosie projections thay had for “WITH THE STIMULUS”. In the graph, the upper line is what they predicted with no action, and the lower line is what they predicted with the “recovery” package. Strangely enough, the early results for unemployment are even higher than what they told us the results would be without the porkulus package.

shocking isn’t it?

Ed Morrissy of Hot Air has a good column about it here:

So…do you think by July 4th, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, or next year?

A good example would be how he handled the Asian Monetary crisis a few years back. Here’s a link to an article where Paul Keating, former Australian Prime Minister, savages his work there: http://www.nakedcapitalism.com.....ister.html

Am expecting Turbo Tax Timmy will work similar destruction to our economy.

- the mortgage bailouts have done nothing. Foreclosures are going up, not down.
- unemployment continues to climb
- Chrysler is bankrupt. GM is on the verge.
- Lending apparently hasn’t increased (not that it was ever that bad for consumers who intend to pay loans back)
- the projected 2009 deficit has climbed 50% above the initial estimate in just 3 months
- the gov’s own OMB projects hugely higher national debt than the Liar in Chief does
- just 6% (yes SIX PERCENT) of the Depression Stimulus has been paid-out after 3 months. At that clip, it will take 4 years to disperse the money. Pretty stimulating, huh?
- repeated failed appointees
- backtracks / reversals / denials of untold loonie programs / statements / lies
- time restricts this list

So much for jolting the economy.

Is the public blind? Is the press asleep?

Oh wait a minute…..
