Does anyone know how Zillow became the de-facto source for home valuation? I get an e-mail once a month from them on the valuation of my house and it is all over the place. Up one month then down the next. I am unfortunetly one of those underwater, current on my payments (actually paying extra principle each month). When I approached my Credit Union about refinancing several years ago, they told me no that Zillow had the value to low. That was the first I heard of them. Who is behind Zillow?

I think there is more to this. By redefining a millionare as middle class. The Democrats can claim that they have expanded the middle class and therefore the middle class is not suffering as much as the far left loonies claim as we wage class warfare. Makes it easier to push those shared sacrifices of cuts to SS and Medicare.

Perhaps this can become an incremental step towards Medicare for all. If they don’t want to cover it, offer a supplemental policy under Medicare for a small fee (added to their payroll deduction). This way their tax dollars do not oay for it. On the other hand we take away their tax free status so we don’t pay for their religious intolerance. Now that is what I call religious freedom

I also worry about that. I think a resonable solution is to change the rules to only allow say 3 fillibusters per sesssion. This would force the minority to actually save and use them on what they deem really important.

While I agree voting third party is better than staying home in apathy or voting for the lesser of two evils, nothing will change until the 1% and their paid for pols fear us. That will not happen at the ballot box.

The Complaint Department is permanently closed …

Also known as the Justice department if you are not the 1%

They were promised a visit by Navy Seal team six if they did not sign on.

Seal Team Six is being reserved for the first state’s AG that files a criminal complaint against the banks.

Media matters has an article on this – another version of “the war on Christmas” from the right wing blogs.

5) Tax all campaign contributions as income.

And if corporations are people then all acquisitions should be outlawed since purchasing another person is slavery.

Since corporations are legal constructs of the government. I.E a regulation, why not lobby the state of Delaware to revoke Standard and Poor’s corporate charter? For that matter do it for any so called American corporation that is threatening the security and health of our country.

I challenge any of these so called MOTU to actually make it running a buisness as a sole proprietorship.

I keep promoting for the day when NONE OF THE ABOVE gets the majority of votes in our elections.

I just watched Gangs of New York again last night. Highly recommended if you want to see where we are heading as a society again thanks to the traitor – in – chief and the rest of the corrupt political stooges.

Why do we need an over bloated Department of Defense and Homeland Security? Whether you die from a terrorist attack or starvation, you are just as dead. Oh yeah, a terrorist attack might damage the assets the rich want to steal from us!

Ultimately, Customers are the true job creators. If no one is buying there is no need for job. Money without labor is just an inert piece of paper and business without customers is just insane. But I guess the MOTU think these simple truths do not apply.

More likely Mr. Obama is telling him of the nice luxurious accommodations he has waiting for Mr. Thigpen at Guantanamo if he continues his terrorist ways against the poor innocent bankers.

Since we are fighting for the very existence of Social Security and the few remaining social safety nets remaining, why is no one pointing out how much worse this recession depression would be if it were not for the New Deal constructs of Social Security and the FDIC? How many more people would be struggling to survive without their monthly SS check or their lost savings from the hundreds of banks that have failed? How many more would have died without Medicare?

We need to not just talk dollars but the impact on human lives. How many new members does AARP think it will get if new seniors need all their money just to buy cat food and medicine from reduced SS benefits?

He still has damage things to do or undo in the case of Social Security and other progressive programs that help the serfs little people.

Just as important, when will Obama realize the only definition of bi-partisanship that Republicans believe in is give them everything they deamnd and they will let Obama take the blame when it goes wrong.

If the Democrats even think of doing anything to help the lesser folks, they will have a hissy fit and try to bully them to back down?

Besides a spine they need a moral compass!

Can we start a campaign to write in “none of the above” for all the seats up for election?

It is pathetic that Obama and most of the Democrats went from “Yes we can” to “vote for us – we suck less”. Primary Obama and send a new message to Wahington. – “YES, You Will!” (restore our country to the true progressive center).
