Finally?

Four years. Is that what we were talking about. Let's explore that idea a little bit further. Four years and no one has ever been held responsible...


The Obama administration tried to instill confidence in the effort by installing Eric T. Schneiderman, the New York state attorney general who is viewed by liberal groups as a crusader against big banks, as one of the leaders of a new unit within the Financial Fraud Enforcement Task Force. But skeptics still doubted the sincerity of the new effort.
Well, I was excited about this in the first paragraph of the story, but somehow the second one, quoted above, took all the wind right out of my foreclosed sails. Thanks a lot NYTimes.

In other news, these two posts were juxtaposed on my Fbook page. It made me do a double take...


The top post is a quote from MLK, Jr. - "It’s all right to tell a man to lift himself by his own bootstraps, but it is cruel jest to say to a bootless man that he ought to lift himself by his own bootstraps. It is even worse to tell a man to lift himself by his own bootstraps when someone is standing on the boot."

The next post is about boicotting Starbucks because they support Gay Marriage.

We can obviously see some difference in ideas/opinions.

Vote for You!
