Just an update. The buyer has backed out due to the economic situation and craziness with the peso. He still wants to buy the house, and may do so in 2 weeks, or 2 months, just doesn't know. So.... he wants me to just go ahead and sign another 2 month extension for him. The lender is ready to...
My thoughts, not worth much.
The definition of terrorist is pretty subjective, some would consider Ayers a patriot of such magnitude that he was willing to fight the government to affect change he felt was right, no different from our patriot forefathers that rebelled against the crown. This...
Yep, I've been part to 3 contracts in the last few months, each one was boilerplate with the exact same verbiage. If notice isn't given in X days that financing can't be obtained, buyer forfeits earnest money. It cost me $2100 the hard way to find out, but, if I had entered a contract that...
It's really a function of his nationality and finances. He and his family are very distrusting of the American system, they are hesitant to give a mortgage company access to their banking info lest the info be given to the Mexican gov't.
He and his family own an import business with retail...
Yes, I have a real estate attorney in my back pocket. Unfortunately all of their advice regarding the contracts and lease ammendments have been deemed too cumbersome for the buyers by my realtor, and he has nixed most of the language we wanted to add to protect our interests. Realtors are real...
When the buyer was first presented, our realtor contacted his lender (hometrust mortgage) who assured him that the buyer was approved/great/no problems etc. Turns out hometrust had turned it over to a 3rd party investment bank that was no where near approving him.
So, I learned that mortgage...
They came to the table w/20% cash down, and still had a lot of trouble because they're "non-traditional" due to the Mexican records. The buyer has spent 1000's on translations, incorporating his business to write himself paychecks to have a "paystub" for documentation. It has been a huge...
So, after having a signed contract for 3 months now, and going on mortgage lender #3, and a 2 week delay due to Hurricane Ike, my closing is scheduled for October 10th, or sooner.
What are the chances the mortgage company will decide to not lend any money due to the national financial crisis...
Good information thus far. My .02
I know very little about financial markets, but I think that a 1930's style depression won't be happening. I think society is too different these days, less agrarian, more global.
For 3 months the buyer of my home has been trying to get his mortgage...
This is the cruz of Krugman's editorial. A ticket's ability to govern is more closely correlated to the integrity of their campaigning than the effectiveness of their campaigning. Just because the GOP are masters of the smear, appealing to the lowest common denominator, telling lies that no one...
The "Hillary should/will replace Biden" meme is a ruse being pushed by right wing radio. The sheep eat it up and then regurgitate it enough times that is starts to be considered a legitimate thought. It's just payback for the left doing the same thing.
Newsflash, the "anyone but Bush" ticket...
Ding, Ding, Ding.
I'm not worried about Obama losing, I'm worried about what kind of country we live in that the race is so close. Clinging to God and Guns indeed.
Nope, I get all my news and opinions from P&N.
Didn't watch the video, I was basing my statement on the supposed quote/transcript. However, it was poorly written and difficult to tell where truth left off and spin began. My apologies if I was in error.
No one here is trying to make claims of hiding. People here are responding to the McCain/Palin spokesperson's claim that she will not speak unless it is scripted.
Do not try to spin this into yet another false claim by the left, that is a dishonest claim.
Funny thing....
I was checking out a local redneck forum after the DNC event last week, and a post was made about the country artist's song being used at the end. These people were seriously apoplectic about one of "their" guy's music being used by the DNC. Lots of calls for boycotts, running...
Denigrating Obama's community service and activism was pretty ugly, the equivalent of denigrating McCain's captivity for political points.
What they're selling: Sarah Palin
What you're getting: Ann Coulter
I guess we have to ask...why is the MSM sitting on its hands with this story? Bet I don't hear Rush asking that question today.
Another point previously mentioned, the MSM is not pushing any of the Palin smears, nor are official democrat people. A few bloggers are doing what they do best...
I never implied that anyone would be voting for Bush. Based on McCain's behavior during the campaign so far, it appears that he has abdicated his independent streak in favor of the traditional neocon handlers. He has hired onto his campaign the architect of the smear campaign Bush waged against...
I don't understand the "Country First" meme.
Only allowing republicans to take part in rebuilding Iraq, regardless of experience, was not putting our country first.
Firing US attorneys because they weren't partisan enough, was not putting our country first.
Appointing cronies to...
I noticed some weak spontaneous chants of "USA, USA". Considering how weak it was, I have to wonder if the attendees really support the USA or what. I wish there had been some talk about how they plan to get this cart out of the ditch. The emphasis on nationalism was kind of scary, fortunately...
My sentiments exactly. Obama may not be everyone's cup of tea, but 4 more years of republican control is just unfathomable to me. I haven't seen any legitimate arguments against Obama yet since all the republican arguments are completely undercut by their performance the last 8 years. How can...
It pretty clearly illustrates that the left and the media shows more respect and restraint when it comes to a personal matters, and that the right wingers are nothing but scum. Kerry's personal choices were spun into a huge issue in 2004 by the Limbaugh's and Hannitys of the world, meanwhile...
I listen to Glenn Beck, Rush L, and Hannity throughout the day. They are non-stop beating the drum about all the "dissention" in the D party, claiming the Ds are falling apart because they can't control Bill Clinton, Ds are afraid of what he might say etc. Total dishonest BS, but I'm sure the...
France is a glimpse into the future for our own country. We'll eventually be overburdened, unable to support basic infrastructure, with a disillusioned immigrant population prone to violence. I say we nip it in the bud now lest we become like France in the next few years. Immigrants these days...
It's a tragedy that the important positions in the US installed infrastructure were staffed with Bush loyalists rather than qualified and competent people. Bush cut our throats in Iraq by putting his party interests before the interests of the Iraqi people.
Purging of the intellectuals is...
LOL... but the president of our country will only speak in front of hand picked, agenda friendly audiences?
Who can't stand toe to toe?
Who has no business running the country?
Methinks thou doth protest too much.
