CONGRESSIONAL REPORT ON HOUSING MELTDOWN

osama bin obama

used the CRA, acorn and the senate dems starting back in the late 90's to create the collapse that happened in 2006. We only have the totus to thank for the depression we have been in for over 3 years now.

You got that right. The entire nest of squirming maggots in the DNC are to blame for this.

CRA is a nice Commie scam.

The CRA is a latent Soviet Dream whereby the capitalists are forced into giving away money to druggies, losers and mostly Democrats even if they are illegal aliens and cannot register in some cases.


'Affordable Housing,' the slogan of professional maggots like Backside Barney and Stubby Finger Rham, provides a way for the government to pay off people with bank money for their votes.

"We can safely state that this phony government “affordable housing” program is not exactly working according to any known leftist theory of equality. The ‘poor’ cannot pay for their mortgages as predicted so the system is unfair. This observation brings up the broad-spectrum question about any known history of leveling of factors that brought about some form of equality. The closest I can find is the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia. This is probably the left’s best effort to achieve equality as they simply suffocated anybody they found who could read or had soft hands.

CRA is a nice Commie Scam II

That is one method that can square off a bell curve—just eliminate the upper half and tail. After a fully rereading of some books like Animal Farm, 1984 and reviewing the Cambodian Splendor, it is clear that people like Castro, Ortega, Chavez, Morales and Kim in North Korea are simply pigs. They deal in poverty, murder and sleaze. They are the exact converse of equality. The mumblings of Evo Morales who now identifies himself as “Marxist-Leninist” brings the promise of land reform. What a joke. Lenin promised land reform and several million Kulaks [known as Dekulakization ] died trying to get in on the deal. Food was the issue in the Ukraine and the Soviet solution was Holodomor (Ukrainian: ????????? translation: death by starvation). The left can seemingly stand up and offer to support the ‘poor’ even thought they preach from atop a pile of 100,000,000 dead bodies. "

Health Care will emerge as the new CRA

Somehow, the parasitic left will get losers, druggies and illegal aliens socketed into the new scam: socialized medicine.

We may have quotas where so many illegal aliens who think they are 'doctors' will get patients according to some kind of 'volume' mandate like CRA. We could have witch doctors, sooth sayers, feather and drum beaters, gonjo pokers, mule skinners and dope peddlers all getting money off the taxpayer for 'medical services.'

Hookers could be on the payroll as 'physical therapists,' carjackers as 'transportation consultants, muggers as wealth distribution experts and retards as economists--all for the sake of better health care.

Think about this. Think it is a joke??

Partisan?

This is too simplistic.

It's not that Dems are bad and repubs are good.

Dems suck, repubs suck a little less.

Awww Gunnny....

now you know what really happened.
It's Bush's fault!!!

Oh, that's right, Bush wasn't even POTUS. It was Carter!!
The libs don't like to hear the truth though. So everything, from the beginning of time is Bush's fault.

Dodd, Fwank, all of them should be fired and sued for all they're worth.

rycK

Great comments and dead on. CRA thought up by commie Karter and doubled down by BJ Bubba.

moshe

Agree. The GOP has lost it's way, that is why many of us left it and either went Indep or Amer. Conservative party.

beachmom

The hell with suing them, I say let's TAR AND FEATHER them and horsewhip em out of town. They deserve no less for the misery they caused.

Gunny

What kind of IDIOT would FORCE banks and mortgage lenders to loan money to those who cannot pay it back? ANY hack from EITHER party who had a hand in this lunacy NEEDS to be dragged behind a freight train,and salted.ESPECIALLY those with an R behind their name. Morons.

Well

if they get sued, they'll at least have to find real work and not be able to stay in their luxe homes.

Even Soros Is worried

Obamas reckless ignorant spending is even scarin this guy,Obama-supporting/George W. Bush-hating/billionaire benefactor of hyper-liberal MoveOn.org, George Soros, predicted that the administration's spending and borrowing will trigger inflation and higher interests rates. "As markets revive," he said, "fear of inflation will drive up interest rates, which will choke off recovery." (Emphasis added.)

Gunny

I had to show an ignoramus the same information before because he blamed the entire housing meltdown on Bush. He had no idea of the CRA and quieted down after some very contemptible "rebuttal." You notice how mean they get when you tell the truth.

All This Money $$$

Another example (Rhambutt) of someone lying and slithering their way to Washington and coming into incredible amounts of money. Politicians get there by promising free stuff they never deliver, but promise it again next election. MEanwhile they become multi-millionaires.
So where does the money come from??
We know, but the liberals believe it comes from the Big Rock Candy Mountain.
Moshe is correct. Democrats suck! Republicans suck just a little less.

And now I hear


I hear that Obama and company will require all houses for sale to meet much tougher standards ( thus depressing the market worse)

Instead of Hoovervilles, we'll have Obamavilles.

Of course

helping people in need has always been the problem with our economy. At least that is what money predators would have us believe. We have 700+ military bases around the world because of why?

caday5


700????

Me thinks you exaggerate unless you mean all of the military bases by all countries.

The US total , including those states side is more like 200. Many of these are at the request of the host nation, or leftovers from WWII (IE Germany and Japan).

Packrat

How are doing?

The number of 700+ is given by former CIA consultant Chalmers Johnson.

I went to school with a bunch of

Barney Franks

The instigators. Right in there agitating. They get others to do what they want but when it goes wrong they are the first to point the finger of blame. Never on themselves, though.

They might even go so far as to say they were against 'it' in the first place.

thanks to the left

Good one, Gunny. It reminds me: in the 90's they cahanted "its the economy, stupid"; funny how 'the stupid economy' is now their undoing.

Ivan: Gone but still here

So . . . it's finally happened. My original identity no longer recognized. All my posts expunged.

I've been banned from Townhall.com. And that leaves me with just one question - What took you so long to prove what I've pointed out repeatedly: Conservatives love freedom of speech -- but only for themselves.

The larger truth is that American right-wingers hate all forms of freedom.

It's conservatives who are ever eager to suppress differing opinions, words, writings and art -- from the McCarthy witch-hunts and the rock 'n' roll record burnings of the '50s to their perennial demands for bans on certain books, movies, television programs and public gatherings; for the firing of teachers and professors, the jailing of "communists," anti-war protesters and doctors who perform abortions.

I could continue to return here under various sock puppets as I've done now, and continue to berate and abuse you un-American, racist b4stards, but I'm not going to waste my time. By silencing my voice once you have more than proved my point.

But just because I won't be posting, don't imagine me to be gone. I first dropped by here the day after Barack Hussein Obama was elected president to see whether the sewer-scum who infest Townhall.com would be so stupid as to threaten his life or suborn armed insurrection. As it happened, I caught sewer-scum-in-chief Gunster doing the latter -- twice -- and forwarded his illiterate posts to the FBI. I've no way of knowing whether they followed up or not, but I suspect they did, since the language in Gunny's psycho rants became immediately more moderate. I think he got the word.

So remember, rightoids . . . you may not hear from me, but I’ll be here, watching, ever ready to drop a dime on you traitors whenever you step out of line. Count on it.
