This is a pre-Freddie and pre-Fannie number?

Purports to be apolitical, but I discern a slightly leftward bias. Regardless of presenting seemingly objective facts, it argued that we were moving toward the right direction in the Clinton years and the Bush Administration has destroyed us. That may in fact be true, but it is not that simple an explanation.

Anyway, if the intent of the film is to have a call to action by an electorate and to cast aside partisanship, they have failed due to their own inappropriate need to cast a finger of blame. Silly really and if the source is pandering, then they truly stink.

“I think — I’ll have my staff get to you,” McCain told Politico when asked Wednesday how many houses he owns. “It’s condominiums where — I’ll have them get to you.”

Later, the McCain campaign told Politico that McCain and his wife, Cindy, have at least four in three states — Arizona, California and Virginia. Newsweek recently estimated the two owned at least seven properties.

Last week McCain cracked that being rich in the U.S. meant earning at least $5 million a year. With most Americans feeling the pinch of a worsening economy, the remarks allow Democrats to suggest that McCain cannot relate to ordinary voters.

It’s also another example of how McCain, nearly 72, can be fuzzy and forgetful on some facts.”

I want some of what he’s smoking. Maybe the housing jobs he references are whole-neighborhood demolitions in places like Cleveland, Buffalo, Detroit, etc. Probably will also be lots of opportunities in board-up/winterization jobs everywhere.
