  3. Unbelievable, Matt?
    But it happened!
    I’m SO looking forward to what Breitbart is promising this week… And I wish there was someone in Canada willing to do real journalism.

  10. Crying RACIST !!!!! at the drop of a dime is getting very old , very fast . Have a nice troll ballsack .

  11. So, the people who caused the problem are now in charge of fixing the problem. It’s a classic lose/lose situation.

  12. Seems like the only KKKlan member here is B.J. the Troll who refers to others as colored? Funny that?

  13. Harry J. Balsac; I don’t know about you but I have noticed that all human beings are coloured. What’s more all people regardless of colour are capable of being racist as is proven by you drive by smear.
    Please find somewhere else to spew your bigotry.

  18. louise….ROTFLMAO.
    You know,Harry may have a point(besides the one on his head). SasK was run for a long time by Dippers, the Canuk answer to DemoRats,who have voted against EVERY anti-slavery,anti-black bill in history. guess he forgot that the DemoRat party started the KKK(or never learned while being indoctrinated in school)
    And no,trolls.Google it yourself,you lazy turds,instead of having everybody else do your work for you.
    Opps…sorry Kate.Back to post.Any bets on how many lefties won’t believe their eyes and ears?? Seems to me Stalin had the same sort of plan,only it involved Siberia for housing.

  20. What more can go wrong for Barack? First he can’t get any cabinet appointees through the Senate hearings because most of them didn’t pay their taxes or have criminal records. To remedy this Barack went to appointing Czars, who do not have to be confirmed by the Senate thus eliminating those embarrassing back ground checks. But his choice of Czars is absolutely horribly and he once again is picking extreme radicals that end up having to resign.
    Now Acorn is being exposed as the evil (child prostitution is evil) and corrupt organization it is. Barack just can’t get a break and he has only been in office for 8 months!
    Seriously, I can’t wait to see what comes out in the next 38 months.

  21. er, I guess that should read 40 months. Good thing I don’t do my own taxes or I could be mistaken for a Barack supporter.

  22. Trent
    “”””Good thing I don’t do my own taxes or I could be mistaken for a Barack supporter.””””
    actually, if you didn’t do them you could be mistaken for a Hussein supporter:-)))

  23. Does any of this surprise you? It’s not enough to give people that don’t work money so they have a place to live, pay their elec, gas, and water bills, food, etc. This is what HARDWORKING TAXPAYERS DO. But now I have to make their mortgage payments for them too. The Liberal/NDP left will soon have me paying so these drug taking, alcoholic, lazy, uneducated people, can go on vacation to Florida at my expense.
    And MR. Harry J. Balsac, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR THE POOR THIS PAST WEEK? I thought so. NOTHING. Another lefty who figures everyone else should pay for his BS.

  24. Ok in defence of the lefties…….Bush did have 8 yrs to fix this. The banks did also go out and screwed with the system to make alot of cash. So lots and lots of blame to go around. But it did start with the Democrates. Okay that felt more dirty then I thought it would. Need a shower now.

  25. mad maxxx….in defense of truth,what leftie congress(hint..during GWB’s time)did everything to stop any reforms put forward? Your welcome.And there is NO defense for lefties.

  26. You don’t have to be “coloured” or poor to be rejected for a loan or mortgage, you need only to be unlucky on unable to understand compounded interest. I know lots of people, couples, who were both working but seemed incapable of understanding that you have a contract and it must be paid off.
    To lend money to people without a credit rating or even a job, is just nuts, even if the gov makes you do it.

  27. “It started out as a good idea…”
    I love it! They actually thought making banks give out risky loans was a good idea!! I’m sure he’s full of more ‘good ideas’ to fix the problem.

  29. This is old news, no one has cared.
    The Liberal left has collapsed the US economy through sub-prime loans in the name of race and the redistribution of wealth. On the state level socialist California is paying the largest price. Included were more schools and free medical care than outrageous borrowing and taxation could handle, all in the name of pandering to the illegal invasion from the third world.
    Obamba’s repeated comment – “It seemed like a good idea at the time”………Say’s it ALL!
    We can only guess what other “good idea’s” he has in store for America’s future. I suppose more will wake up on the day they find their children in a soup kitchen, or at best when they can’t afford the body guards required to see their children safely to school. Obamba will have them of course, not unlike Mexico’s president.
    The dominoes have already fallen; it’s going to be much much worse in the near future.

  30. see? I’m right. they ALL do it.
    (00:38): “twice as many blacks denied credit” with discrimination?
    so remove discrimination and it’s what, 1.9 times as many?
    anyone denied credit needs to GET WITH THE PROGRAM and build a credit history, then reapply and see what happens.
    and another thing. I dont know what acorns
    http://greyandred.blogspot.com/2008/01/2008-tough-nut-to-crack.html
    have to do with all this. LOL !!!
    we’se sure as shyt living in interesting times.

  31. > KKK-hate takes another shot at colored folk!
    I’m pretty sure she equally despises all of the white folks who obtained home financing under equally slippery pretenses and then defaulted, leaving others (black and white) holding the bag.

  32. One wonders, if all morgage lenders had consistently applied some simple rules, such as:
    – minumum 20% down
    – verifiable salary history
    – sufficiently good credit rating
    What would have happened (and not happened)?
    Are there studies/reports along these lines (and I mean not just speculations and commentary)?

  33. I am currently reading Dark Star Safari by Paul Theroux. This sounds an awful lot like Zimbabwe. The author talks to a squatter who is not a vet but one told him he could live on someone else’s farm. The government did not come through with seed, fertilizer or a tractor. The squatter expects the landowner to provide these for him.

  35. To Johan i Kanada’s post at 1:26AM.
    What would have happened is what “happened” in Canada. Our banks did not have a meltdown and we didn’t have people walking away from mortgages to the extent that happened last fall in the U.S. In effect, the U.S. banks would have stayed solvent, the U.S. banking sector would not have required a bail-out and the U.S. gov’t would have found it harder to start the implementation of their socialist plan.

  36. You know, the amazing part of all this is how the sons of b1tches figured out a way to leave somebody else holding the bag. They took the -worthless- mortgages they -deliberately- created, chopped them up and sold them as “securities”. Which were conveniently rated AAA.
    I’ve been looking at condos in Arizona. Do you guys realize you can pick up really nice condos in Phoenix, Ahwatukee, Tempe etc. that sold new eight years ago for $150k to $200k+ for under $100k? You can pick up a one bedroom for under $60k.
    Want something CHEAP? How about $5k for something older and crappier. Yes, you can buy a cheezy apartment in downtown Phoenix for five grand.
    That’s what they did. And they made EVERYBODY pay for it, and not one of them is ever going to go to jail.
    There should be a by God revolution over this.

  37. First of all, I didn’t know that Jimmy Carter, Bill Clinton, Barny Frank and Chris Dodd were “colored folk”. Trolls provide no end of enlightenment.
    “It seemed like a good idea at the time” could be the motto emblazoned over the entrance to every emergency department I’ve ever worked in.
    “We’ll force banks to lend money to people who wouldn’t otherwise qualify.” Therein the brilliance of “affirmative action”. While we’re at it let’s make neurosurgeons out of those who wouldn’t otherwise qualify, with the caveat that they can work only on liberals so that no harm can be done regardless of the outcome.

  38. Re: “It started out as a good idea.”
    I think that the HUD spokesman in that video, Andrew Cuomo may now be the AG in charge of the investigations into ACORN in NY state. sheesh. And if the story about Obama asking NY Gov. Paterson to step aside is true, Andrew Cuomo is very likely pegged as the next Dem. candidate for Gov. of NY. This story is not old news yet. Far, faaaar, from it. Katie Couric, call your office!
    Guess that the best case now for Repubs taking the Governors office in NY next year is Rudy G.

  41. In fairness, quoting John Randolph of Roanoke is,
    given the state of political correctness and decency, not right, but he did have this to say those many years ago. “A more pernicious notion cannot prevail, than that the government is not only to attend to the great concerns which are its province,but it must step in and ease individuals of their natural and moral obligations.”

  42. So, in a nutshell, the fraud of “affirmative action” nearly brought down the economy of the world?
    This is what happens when governments intervene in the free market and coercion replaces voluntary decision-making by individuals looking after themselves.

  43. Posted by: DrD>
    Lets not forget that Bill Clinton was Americas “First Black president”.
    I think Carter was the first Islamic president of something akin.
    All in all Obamba is just playing second fiddle trying to catch up.

  44. Ok in defence of the lefties…….Bush did have 8 yrs to fix this. The banks did also go out and screwed with the system to make alot of cash. So lots and lots of blame to go around.
    ~mad maxxx
    The bad legislation got passed because the RACE CARD was played.
    The banks couldn’t stop giving those ninja loans because of the legislation, therefore, in an act of shear survival, they tried to spread the risk by bundling the sub-prome loans with good loans.
    The Republicans couldn’t fix the sub-prime loan problem because the RACE CARD was in play and even after the crash caused by this legislation, the RACE CARD got Obama elected President of the United states and Obama and his supporters are still effectively playing the RACE CARD to stifle any opposition.
    These are classic communist tactics.
    It is class warfare enabled by identity politics.
    Months ago people on this very blog pointed out that more sub-prime loans were taken out by white people than all the non-white people combined.
    That is true.
    BUT, this legislation wasn’t passed because poor white crackers with bad credit couldn’t get loans.
    It was passed because Black people with bad credit couldn’t get loans.
    Therefore anyone against this legislation can and will be effectively portrayed as racist and against Black Americans.

  45. In Canada every thing in favor of people who has more money even people come to appraisal of your home give price in benefit of lender or bank. All pricing by famous are illegal. Size of lot is important as well as location to price your home and when you like to sell you do not like to design it this is only fashion false attraction that dump people can buy it. damage in home is standard like small washroom has price but if appraisal from bank come and see small damage made the house price very low which is not right code.
    Next issue,
    Some Bank in Canada intentionally tries to move out to borrow with high interest from other lenders. People rather than give them lower interest to
    Give them to under table clients as lenders to. Their clients pay their under table clients more interest and automatically those under table cline also pay back to bank more interest in return
    While bank easy can help their customer. Especially bank like Scotia bank and CIBC in Canada are real stink and royal bank only good for big company not small company. They only gave large money to their special under table client of them not to small business with good interest. The system of credit bureau is real tricky .If big company drop the small company total of their ling out of their shelf Then automatically small company not able to pay their bills on time
    If you do not pay your bills on time you will reduce your credit bureau .when small company try to sue big company to breach contract after two years still court play game even they know all evidence to get their damage of breach contract to pay on time
    Therefore big company intentionally drops small company to bankrupt them. Small company can not pay their owe to bank on time. You reduce on time you face not like past good credit. You force to borrow with more interest from lender in most cases is large interest is not allowed and it is illegally above 15% to 29%
    Then this system in Canada and USA is stinking .This system is operate by big company to force small company to listen to them, bank reduce to help small company to get independent then this is small company will force back to big company and kiss hand of those smell corrupted their lawyers and their employee who do extortion corruption illegal competition and abuse and abuse process and still all are not stop by court and you will bankrupt if you pay lawyer as small company to fight big company
    Credit bureau has not idea what is going in detail of small company only write what they like to do and most their info is stink and not correct. In related to small company. This is only good fish for people who force for big interest out of your pocket
    All system is wrong. Discrimination is high rising in distribute wealth in Canada
    Solution: if big company for any reason drop all item of small company under contract writing court must find fast solution to help small company and punish their lawyer and illegal competition done by their employee by fire or put them to condition and credit bureau should hold their horse until all proceeding by court get finish and if big company prefer to pay more than $ 300,000 to fight small company to not pay $ 500,000 damages then this automatically proof that is big claim and those system of bank must help in this situation not obey big company to made them bankrupt lost business or steal their business by pay their lawyer fees. Some lawyer written like ADR by second resolution by intention to do misconduct and do all tort and defame the small company and not pay their damage tot hem in delay this matter still also bring more damage to them too and people who ask for their owe must ask big company to pay their damage in class action join by small company to ask big company to pay damage and pay remaining of tax Canada all this Canada run by big company system to abuse small company.

  47. In Canada if your black or Islamic you just get a free home!
    No worries, no issue.
    That’s why everyone of color loves people of Canada. Really, no bombs and no riots. It’s a simple mental calculation – work very hard and give your money to others and they won’t hurt you, simple no?
