Our local right wing lady in the evening just spent an hour going on and on about the mortgage situation and how evil Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are and some people just can't afford to be homeowners and they know it. (So I guess some people shouldn't have homes?) And of course it was all the Democrats' fault and she played segments of Pelosi's speech on the floor of the House today to prove how evil the Democrats are. One caller even said that we all need to breathe a sigh of relief because we came so close to economic socialism today.
I was screaming at my radio that the bad mortgages are only a small part of the economic problem.
:grr:
So she breaks for a commercial and it is an ad from a mortgage company promising to finance you even if you think you can't qualify, rates in the 4% range, and (here's the best part), NO PAYMENTS FOR A YEAR.
So I pull over because I am laughing so hard it is no longer safe to drive. And I grab my cell phone to call the radio show but can't get through.
When I got home, I emailed the lady and asked her who pays her salary. No I am not holding my breath waiting for a reply.
