This once a week bad rep just cause I'm not on the "right" side anymore is ............. well just typical of the "right".
I’m glad to know that you figured out who the bad rep was from. I’d hate to be accused because I haven’t done a bad rep in about two years. I’m not too impressed by the typical of the right comment. I just checked and my balls are still were they belong, thank you.

When I hear comments that we can’t sort out the folks that are working 2 or 3 jobs and got sold a crap mortgage from the rest of the Toms, Dickheads and scum bags so we’ll just have to bail everyone out I’m going to object.

If I don’t think we should bail out some guy that WOULDN’T work, paid the house payment with the credit cards until the cards were maxed out and walked away, then I’m selfish.

If I don’t think we should bail out some fat cat building a luxury home that didn’t do his do diligence and got stuck in a bad deal, then I’m selfish.

If I don’t think we should bail out someone that took out a second to 125% of the value and walked with the cash, then I’m selfish.

There are folks out there struggling with 2 or more jobs and paying their taxes. If I don’t think we should be using their tax dollars to bail out folks that have made more money and tried to screw the system, then I’m selfish.

I want to find the truly deserving folks and attempt to help them work through it by working something out with the lenders. I want the lenders that sold these crap mortgages to come up with funds to help with this bailout. I want to trace the crap loans back to the realtors and brokers that got these folks in trouble and if I find one that pushed a lot of the crap loans for their own profit, let’s pull their license. And finally I want the greedy politicians to stop trying to take a fat chuck out of every successful transaction so this market can turn around and folks will have their equity secure again.

I don’t want to just throw money at the problem without fixing the problem.

Meanwhile, I may be selfish but I’m not content.
