Comments on: Some C.S. on the Emergency Bill http://www.noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/09/28/some-cs-on-the-emergency-bill/ Sun, 22 Nov 2009 09:25:38 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Jamie http://www.noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/09/28/some-cs-on-the-emergency-bill/#comment-1201147 Jamie Wed, 06 May 2009 02:57:32 +0000 http://noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/09/28/some-cs-on-the-emergency-bill/#comment-1201147 Reverse Mortgages are bad because they eliminate the equity? Not all equity is lost with a reverse mortgage. On top of that, to many seniors having left-over equity in their house after they die isn't an issue to them. It's not like they can take that equity with them when they leave this fine planet. If they want to tap equity to improve their quality of life by taking trips, affording better health care, gifting it to their kids, setting up a college fund for grandkids etc... Who are you to say that's a bad deal for them? I'm consistently amazed at the misleading comments made on reverse mortgages on the interwebz.

Brazen liar! She didn't bother to mention that the Dems had blocked every effort to institute relation since at least 2002, even came close to calling the warnings by regulators lies! In the mess the govt is in, there is plenty of blame to go around, but I believe in giving credit where credit is due. Pelosi on Fox was placing the blame on this Admin’s failure to regulate!

The Pope doesn't stand for cafeteria Catholics, but this election will test their faith. There are consequences for your actions, whether you accept that or not.

While supply side economics is not the answer, it is factually dishonest to say the sub-prime mortgage was not the spawn of Dem's. The erosion of labor's political influence has more to do with greed at the top. Please explain the public rift in Nevada's SEIU's top echelons during the primary. Also the Role ACORN had in the PR primary. Or ACORNS role in Michigan and Florida's Dem primary outcome. La Raza and ACORN met with Obama in Los Angeles. Do you think these organizations do anything to strengthen the role that labor plays? Respectfully, get real. They are a blight on middle class working people of this country. The Inuit people had a practice of leaving their elders on the ice packs for the polar bears when they went to meet their maker. And in turn would return to Inuit. Obama and his crowd left humans to freeze and made profit from it. Who is the guilty party? ACORN was defended by OBAMA. It is another way to launder dirty money. Have you looked recently at Rezko's ties to ACORN? I see the whole economic ball of wax as NewHampsters wonderful analogy to Dune, as on the money. As time goes by Americans make nothing, own nothing, and increasingly so, know nothing of their peril.

Obama and the Dem's have not stood up for the 1st, 2nd, 4th 5th and 14th amendments of the Constitution of these United States, they have forsaken 18 million at the drop of a hat and the right to vote in a Chicago send.
