More self serving political wrangling.  The first question to ask is, "Were these borrowers past due on their mortgage?".  If yes, then what difference does it make who signed the foreclosure documents, they were past due and the lender had the right to foreclose.  Maybe if these borrowers were as diligent in their pra...more

Love her or hate her, she has a valid point.  I too am sick of all the flip flopping by politicians.  In any other venue, it would be illegal to promise one thing and deliver another.  Funny how people rail against what she said and what she stands for and yet use the same verbiage she does as tho when she does it it's...more

Sucks someone has died, but come on muzakalsoul, definitely not a legend here.  Mediocre at best..

The problem is the owners, be it banks or mortgage companies, can't make a rational decision.  One thing I learned in banking and collections, usually the first offer is the best.  They just can't come to grips with reality and instead choose to sit on a $300K house instead of selling it for $250K.  It comes down to be...more

This ain't country music and hasn't been for a long time.  the decline of country music happened back in the late 70's with Urban Cowboy, Anne Murray, line dancing etc.  This is nothing but rock & roll with some half a$$ed wannabe country lyrics.  Unfortunately most of the real country stars are probably too broke to s...more

Just another example this administration knows nothing about business, money or investments.  It is this kind of reasoning that has us heading down the road to bankruptcy.  While the rest of the world buys low and sells high...this administration, which as we all know refuses to listen to people in the know, goes again...more

DannyBo, they don;t own any "liability" because the value of your house drops just as GMAC or FMCC isn't responsible to make you whole when you drive your car off the lot and the value drops 10% below what you just signed the paperwork for.  That's the chance you take when you buy anything.  You can't buy a suit for $5...more
