"Home ownership is at an all time high"
Is this quote about Bush? We all know that RW'ers use only 3 good things to say about Bush.

"I do think, as has already been clearly stated, that home ownership is at an all time high." - Marge Roukema

So, Bush is actually riding the Clinton Wave of Coolness.

1. So are the Di-tech commercials...
If I see one more, I'm going insane. It's almost as bad as the hurricane coverage... :)

3. Yes, You're Right!
There is no real statistically significant difference in home ownership over the last 5 years. Is it up? Yep. Is it a valid statistical difference? No.

Remember that if ONE more family bought a house, it would be UP! But, that's an awfully insignificant percentage.

4. And Don't Forget "Interest Only Mortgages"
Gee those things have been around forever. They used to call it RENT!
