Their mortgage payments are going to go down $5,000 a year. Their insurance premiums are going to go up $5,000 a year. They wn't be able to afford either one, because they just lost their job

he can't do anything right
he never cared about the economy, he was more interested in extremist leftist politics
rewarding his ideology and punishing his opponents
he misrepresents
he ad libs
he's secretive, his health bill is STILL a mystery
he bailed out the super rich and left everyone else to wither
he doesn't understand the american people
he doesn't know the difference between leadership and cheap, ordinary opposition politics
he has no vision
he's naive, inexperienced, trying to learn on the job
he's the plaything of the putins and hu's and even ahmedinejads of this world
i sincerely believe he can't do math, he's flummoxed by big numbers
he turned over the physical crafting of all his legislation---health care, the stimulus, cap and trade, reg reform---to congress
an astonishing lack of real input on the part of the white house
he's totally incompetent
he's the single worst politician at this level any of us has ever seen
he's squandered everything, a mandate, a media, an entire world rooting for him, his historic and exciting triumph, both houses and 60 senators
his entire agenda is gone
the stimulus is an admitted failure---why do another, why do a jobs summit
why not just stay the course
why all the adjustments
he's all over the place---in oslo he's a warrior, after hu he's a deficit hawk (except house and senate are both hurry hurry about to raise the debt ceiling), he mumbles about payroll tax holidays while squeezing benefit packages and medicare payroll in his health care
he's indecisive and vacillating
incoherent---his afghan plan is "exit," then "conditions based," then "transition"
and now it's "glide path"
reid won't say what's in the health care---all the senators are saying, how can we declare, we don't know what's in it
how dare reid, after all we've all been thru over health care, come out tuesday and say---we've done it, we've got it, but i can't tell you what it is
i could go on, believe me
the most incompetent leadership this nation has ever seen
at a time when america most needs lincoln's steady, certain, courageous hand
hang in, friends

All this program is doing is paying mortgage companies to screw over hard hit home owners.

That's right. The financiers aren't passing on that savings to their customers.

As stated by The Prof Obama's and the Liberal's plans ans schemes have not one damn thing to do with solutions to real problems and or issues.
For example lack of insurance for health care could easily purchased for those who don't have it for hundreds of millions less than the proposals demand.
The cost could be reduced in part through tort reform and a revamping of Malpractice insurance.
Many claim that Tort reform will have a tiny effect. B.S. doctors are leaving some forms of medicine because of the cost of malpractice insurance that is being driven directly by law suit costs.
The Cash for Clunkers debacle was about pretending to do something and had negative long term effect on the auto industry and added to peoples debt, and took perfectly good cars off the road for no good reason. It sounded like a plan but since it was used for imports more than the big 3 it was a failure that cost over $24,000 per car to loan $4,500 per car.
Now we come to this phony home loan situation. The lenders have been bailed out and now place obstacles in the path of those who need relief. They stall and use other tactics to keep from loaning the money they supposed to be loaning.
The Congress caused loans to be made people who couldn't afford them in the first place and the mess has yet to addressed in a sound manner that will help to solve it.
Everything as The Prof has said is right about Cap and Trade as well. It's about nothing to do with fixing anything except fixing it so we can never have economic recovery.
We have got to have a REVOLUTION at the ballot box to take this nation back from the Democrats and Republicans and put it in the hands of people with solutions to the issues not lies and empty promises like Obama has filled so many empty heads with.
We need a Conservative Take No Prisoners Party and use it to throw all the bums out, and put the Nation back under the control of the Constitution and WE THE PEOPLE!
If we don't the NEO NATIONAL SOCIALIST/MARXIST are going to destroy us.

I never liked the mortgage forgiveness stuff. So I'm not sad that his program is failing there. Allowing people to buy more home than they can afford and then bailing them out is just as bad as allowing the big businesses to make bad decisions and then bailing them out. You shouldn't punish those that live within their means.

How much did the program that was setup to allow homeowners to renegotiate their loans cost us?
