cbl commented on the blog post There Is No Foreclosure Fraud Settlement Term Sheet
this was a public demonstration of good faith – as promised by Messina in his
bukkake star turn tuesday – “now watch our guy finesse this shit on Thursday, we’ve got this !”p.s. to Dayen or any one else paying close attention –
