It's an unsurprising political CYA strategy coming from DC Democrats who supported the system that forced banks to make these loans.

(btw, so everyone knows...USA + Nato troops are loved worldwide as protectors of mankind. shame on negative media, I have seen this begin to change already as Democrats who criticized the war are now responsible for it and are now taking responsibility.)

Rent control is put into place politically by predominantly Democrats who think they're actually trying to help (or pander to their voting block) as a means of "protecting those who could get forced out by higher rents" I believe is what I've heard most over the past couple decades I've been at this.   

The problem is state level politics has now shifted into what will likely be one party Democratic rule from here on out.

If he was a democrat I would vote twice:)All joking aside: actions show a man's true character and Jay has shown he is golden.

I see no relevance in this discussion pertaining to your comments pertaining to Tea Party or Republicans in the conversation, any more than if you had insinuated the"problem is the Democrats are spending too much and we need more money."

America has always encouraged home ownership - America liked to be known as democratic - in school etc - it worked well for the first 150 or so years.

I just threw up in my mouth a little.Although I do like the current conspiracy theory that Donald is still the same ol' democrat he was back in the Clinton days and he's being the d-bag he is now in order to cast the GOP in as terrible a light as possible.Because I just can't imagine that he's actually for real.

I have a duplex , one side I rent to Democrats , the other side Republicans .  

Government has already allowed our manufacturing base to deteriorate or move to China and in the coming recession the service industries could be decimated.I expect the Democrats to want to have good economic times for the coming election.
