DFL Chair Brian Melendez brought to light Representative Tom Emmer's history of mortgages today at a Capital press conference. The handout was titled : "Tom Emmed's Mortgage History", but upon reflection, I think "Tom Emmer's Mortgage Mystery" would have been better. I wish I could explain it to you, or even myself. Is there fraud here? Does a bank officer move to another bank, and ok questionable loans? I can't answer these questions, and I sought the answer with bankers and loan officers today, and they didn't want to even speak off the record. One realtor suspected "fraud, when you get a loan for twice the value of a house". But we don't know. Emmer, has called for everyone to take their budget plans to the Department of Revenue for "certification", Emmer has called for Horner to release his client list, and Dayton has already released his taxes... But, there is just a gapping question when it comes to these seven mortgages. In thinking about it today, I recalled the poetry of Donald Rumsfeld : The Unknown As we know, There are known knowns. There are things we know we know. We also know There are known unknowns. That is to say We know there are some things We do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns, The ones we don't know We don't know. —Feb. 12, 2002, Department of Defense news briefing A reporter asks, wasn't this in the Blogosphere already, and they were probably referring to Bluestemprairie's article here :
