That is not a common name, and that is a small town. You are speaking disinformation now. Here is what I said and I will delete your disinformation unless you offer some evidence:

It doesn't matter whether it is common or unusual. It simply isn't proof of what you are arguing.

bgamall4 says

Point is, the photo showed a younger man, and the yearbook showed the child was older, not 6. It is a hoax, Bigsby. Sandy Hook was a hoax, and a bad one at that.

? Er, that's because it's not the same person you plum. You reach so far I'm surprised your arms don't drop off.

And as I keep asking, how many people have come forward that know this person and their family to say that he is lying? Come on, presumably if what you were arguing was true, this would be one of the first things that would happen for ALL those people directly affected by what happened. Family, friends, work colleagues, neighbours, thousands of people presumably, would all be talking to the press. And yet not a squeak. Shall I tell you what that says for your 'theory?'

WE AREN'T TALKING ABOUT PRICES HERE!!!!!!!!

Tell that to your buddy bubblesitter--comment 1 on the thread.

bubblesitter says

U mean prices continue to go UP?

Usually a top takes three months to make. S&P is flat for almost three months now.

The punishment doesn't fit the crime in both scenarios. So no.

And yes a rapist is a low-life but what he did to that woman doesn't deserve his genitals mutilated and murdered unless he did that to her... which he didn't.

Is this not a reasonable approach to our REALTOR problem?

What do you propose we do with the female realtors?

Bull market's over already for quite a while. It's a sideways-to-down market, kept levitating by a steadily weakening dollar and cheap debt. Once rates start rising, short REITs.

I guess I still don't understand Obamacare.

Is it not true, that if you don't sign up, you will have to pay a penalty of around $800 in your taxes?

And also, that you can sign up whenever you want, so like right when you enter the hospital?

So why wouldn't I not sign up, then sign up when I need it, then drop it and pay the penalty when I don't need it?

Market is neither bull nor bear.

You have to find the stocks that will grow and get rid of the ones that will fall.

You have to wait for open enrollment, so it's really nothing at all, but a mass shitty rotten company insurance plan that nobody in the company wants.

I see you took a high dose of crazy pills today Gary. And yes, I think you are anti-semitic.

Not so crazy at all. You will have to be more specific. The link between Bloomberg and Sandy Hook Hoax is notable. It is also true that Wall Street is behind the bad mouthing of public school teachers.

So, what is crazy, Bigs? I will be out so you can post your ramblings and I will save the ones that are interesting. :)

It was like a stream of conscience verbal diarrhea tsunami of all your NWO conspiracy views rolled into one post. Comedy gold.

I take that as a backhanded compliment, Bigsby.

You shouldn't.

Clinton's monkeying with the CRA did not have an effect until the mid 2000s.

You understand that it's been proven that the CRA had no effect on the housing bubble.

Absolutely, I understand that you believe that it has.

A permanent tour of supermax prisons for as long as the live.

Realtors are already whores, this would just be another gig. They'd end up owning all the cigs and smack in the big house!

Woman chops off alleged rapists penis and beats him to death with a hammer

The AF runs strong in this one!

Bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered. The market just needs to move to make money.....

I'm a renter, I want to buy!

A new construction, single story tutor style 3400 sqft 5/3 on two acres of land in Portola Valley. It should have a full finished basement, vinyard, and horse stable and a sweeping view of the bay

$235,000 for that sounds about right.

But I can't buy that so count me among those 4M

Why yes I do, so there

It was alleged that bankers were prejudiced against lower income people so the government in all of it's wisdom decided to meddle in the market to enforce people's right to own a home.

This is absurd because nothing is more fair than the market when it comes to these matters. No one in business is going to inhibit his income sources.

BTW Jimmy Carter had a stamp come out recently, imo no one deserves to be stamped more than Jimmy Carter?

steadily strengthening, actually.

New Renter says

Easy way to accomplish this objective.

MOVE.

Get the heck out of San Jose. There are a boatload of other areas in this country where $235,000 would buy you a fabulous home. However, you insist on staying in CA, you are insisting on being a renter.

Well, if renters can't then that's what investors are for, isn't it?

If you put a female realtor in Attica in a wedding dress, she would enjoy it too much and never want to leave.

indigenous says

Sure it is, because Barney told the bankers that they had to make loans that were not in their best interest he said you do not have to carry the paper you can pawn it off on Fanny and Freddy.

You have that quote for me where he said that? Please share.

indigenous says

In addition to this Goldman and ilk exploited the opportunity through derivative trading. Because of the bubble created by Greenspan to keep the economy going after the .com bust "irrational exuberance" was the order of the day.

What opportunity did they exploit? How did it relate to the CRA?

Did she then feed the severed penis to a dog?

there's some truth there. I think Rove was behind all of the mistakes of the past decade.

Being a political operator, his primary mission was to make new Republicans, and since veterans and home owners trend republican, that meant making more wars and more home buyers.

And so it went. Government regulators stepped back, and let the free market do its magic.

His severed penis should be stuffed down his own throat and made to swallow.

Actually, I'm a man, and by the way NOT a supporter of extreme feminism, but I say he deserved it, that is if her story is true, about his repeated abuse and blackmail. Fuck him. But what she did is a crime regardless of whether he deserved it.

Don't we all like stories about people who are thought to be meek and willing to accept endless abuse, who turn out to have suprising strength, and fight back in an over the top way ? All abusive men need to read the story.

If you're an abused woman, show the story to your man, and tell him about how much you enjoyed imaging the the man's experience, the moment that he woke up, right before getting hammered to death.

bubblesitter says

Right on.
If renters can't buy, they must rent. Who would they rent from? An investor who must buy.
Either way, the sale must take place.

I can't afford Silicon Valley either. That is why I did not even bother going there in the first place.
Move down to beautiful Orange County. Lower prices, better weather, and lots of jobs.

The real cause was what I said. I'm not going to go through this with you mutts again.

Did you go through this with us once?

Then you proceed to do what you are accusing me of...

I can't find where he accused you of making sense.

Bellingham Bill says

CRA/subprime didn't have shit to do with Alt-A lending taking over the system 2002-2007. Alt A was people with good credit taking out suicide loans -- negative am / teaser rate / interest only, stated-income / stated-asset, plus industry fraud at all levels, from mortgage brokers submitting fraudulent applications to the ratings agencies knowingly rating bad paper good, plus of course Wall Street operators intentionally creating CDOs that were going to blow up and then buying under-priced CDS against them.

Excellent summary. Best and most concise summary I've seen. You could add that in some cases it was stupidity based fraud (rather than outright evil), resulting from idiots who thought (even assumed) double digit gains could or would continue for years to come.

At HIGHER house prices, of course!!

Hopefully, a lot higher prices.

So can I have the house you regretted buying? I'm willing to rent it back to you.
It's an offer you cannot refuse.

You can't fix stupid, but in the great socialist paradise, you can say that all the permutations of stupid are wonderful and smart, and that all the permutations of smart are threats to the integrity of the nation.

Its the elevation of the mediocre and retarded, so that nobody has to feel bad about themselves.

You have a pool? That will be an extra $100 per month in rent.

If I was the judge I'd look the other way and let her off the hook. Let's call it temporary insanity.
I'd also give her a medal.
