TENT CITY, California While Vacant Houses Deteriorate From watergatesummer.blogspot.com we have this post on the moronic ideology that misuses our natural and creative resources. It can be said that conservatives do not conserve and liberals do not liberate. I coined that because it is obvious that politics in this country is degrading even while some try to revive it. Out…[...]

Go get'em!…[...]

MANY THANKS TO DAN EDSTROM Dan has put together a list which frankly I would like him to expand. Following the money means determining the party to whom you MIGHT owe money. It certainly isn't the pretender lender and if you can fill in the blanks on this list you will be able to show that. Remember the burden is…[...]

Three Decades of Subsidized Risk by Charles Gasparino Friday, November 6, 2009 I recently sat down with legendary investor Ted Forstmann to discuss why, on the one-year anniversary of the financial meltdown, the press has largely ignored the role of government in creating the meltdown—and possibly setting the stage for another one—by allowing Wall Street to borrow cheaply and easily…[...]

Editor's Note: OK if you exclude that small matter of a $182 billion dollar loss, they made a profit. Other than that Mrs. Lincoln, how did you like the play?

Also submitted by: mortgagefrauds@aol.com Editor's Note: For those who are dubious about the legal positions and theories suggested in this blog, this case will be at least somewhat instructive. It is not just a technicality. It is reality. Nobody on the lender's side can actually trace your note and mortgage to the real party in interest or anyone with actual…[...]

The basic thrust is that the burden of proof increases geometrically on a party wishing to prove up the contents of…[...]

Appraisal negligence and/or fraud is overlooked by many. Appraisers are usually licensed and insured.
