    so it was the republican's fault when they controlled congress, and now when the democrats control congress, it's still the republicans fault (bail out bill failure)?

    truly, you have a dizzying intellect.

    Dude - you started this thread to b**** about poor black folks getting home loans and to blame democrats for enabling them to do so in the 1990's and 00's.

    As we have established - this is the extent of your misapprehension of the financial collapse. For reasons already discussed, it's completely irrelevant.

    But assuming in your fantasy "it's the n-words" fault universe that you and the boys over at FREEPERland have dreamed up, the facts remain who controlled congress and the white house during that time period.

    I beg you to stop humiliating yourself. The only thing having a worse September than the stock market and McCain-Palin is your incredibly awful posting since your return from ban-dom.

    St. Peter: Sam Fisher, step foward and face your judgement.

    Jesus Christ: Sam, you have been a condescending, arrogant, individual who belittles others, you have rarely been contrite.......have you anything to say?

    Sam Fisher: Jesus, you really don't know what you are talking about, it would be best if you took a break for awhile.

    Jesus Christ: very well, you had your chance to repent, now you will face your eternity as you chose.

    Sam Fisher: elitist.

    This is not intended to be offensive (but I'm sure will be spun that way...), but you have to admit that those Congressmen/women of color defending Franklin Raines (Fannie Mae) HAVE to remind you of the people defending Kobe, OJ, and Michael Jackson. Race transcends reason in so many cases. It's a blinding force, that is worth exploring from a psychological perspective.

    I think you should look at the three fingers pointing back at you.

    This has everything to do with the current problem and this stems all the way back to the 1977 passing of the Community Reinvestment Act by Jimmy Carter which was reinforced by Bill Clinton yet again in 1995. By allowing people to buy houses, who under normal circumstances would not qualify, you are basically flooding the market with valitile, high risk loans like ARMs 80/20s, 100% finance, etc.

    In a liberal feel good sense it feels like the right thing to do, but from a fiscally conservative and principal based stand point you should not be getting a house unless you can put 20% down, have an emergency fund of cash in the bank and can afford a mortage of 15 years with a note not more then 25% of your take hom income. Anything else is in reality doing a disservice to the people falling prey to this feel good political notion.

    Dude you really should do some history research prior to posting this stuff...

    Hitler rose to power by joining a radical fringe party and then killing everyone in the opposing party. He then used fascist, marxist tactics of slandering anyone who voiced opposition towards him and once he became chancellor he immediately went into dictator mode and extended the slander into killing through the gistapo. The jews were meerely a scapegoat to win the will of the people. He chose them because they were typically wealthy, educated and had a conservative religious belief.

    Come to think of it Hitler sounds an awful lot like the modern day democrat if you ask me... :cool:

    I tried to read it, but it quickly became apparent that you're a talking monkey who doesn't understand what the credit derivative market is .....so your thoughts here can pretty much be discarded out of hand.


    The idiots are the people who think that poor black people caused this or are even barely relevant to the discussion - you, basso, giddyup, a few others....honestly stop embarrassing yourselves and shut up, as you have no clue what you are saying.

    I say this because I mean it. Go back to working on your myspace page or something. No offense but it could use the work. Or better yet give up myspace - it's for 12 year olds.

    Sam, this is your last warning -- clean it up. Your latest defense of putting words in people's mouth to paint them as racist is over the line. You can't just run around saying people are dropping the n-bomb when they aren't. That's just below the belt and wrong.
