Was just listening to rush |
|
A man just called in and said that he and his wife had put down 70% down on their house and when the economy got bad they missed 3 payments in one years time. They tried to catch up and were told the bank would not accept any more payments.
They tried many of the mortgage modifications out there and encountered delays and turn downs at every turn.
Of course rush ran out of time and supplied his own take on it. He said that it was Obama's fault because the loan modification program was just for show and was not really to help anyone.
No blame was put on the banks, banks were just doing the good job they always do.
It is time to bring the bank leeches down to their knees. Let them fail if that is what it takes. Investigate all the false and illegal foreclosures. Fine the hell out of them and throw them in jail.

Now take a nice long hot shower for being subjected to that pile of audio excrement.

Listened to the game last night and the channel is right wing. beck, rush, hannity and others. It had been quite awhile since I have listened and just had it on while I was on the computer.
It is good to get fair and balanced news every once in a while:evilfrown:

5. HAMP is making my short sale super sweet. |

IF my condo sells that is.
Rush's callers are liars just like Rush.

6. Thank you for your service in listening and reporting |

So, did Rush blame the caller for buying more house than he could afford? Or could he tell the caller wasn't the "wrong" kind of person and therefore was doubtless a fine, upstanding "real" American? That's how the guy's default on his mortgage could become Obama's fault, then. See?

8. that's just silly. saving money is not american. borrowing is american. |
|
unless he had put 50% down and used the rest to buy big tvs or expensive furnishings for the house. maybe that would have been acceptable. the banks should be at fault for refusing to help the homeowners who have only missed a couple of payments but otherwise have had a good history of paying.
