Knowing how unpopular the bailout is with the American people, the Democrats are not about to pass anything without broad Republican support even though their majorities permit them to act alone. Instead of signing on with the Democratic/Bush package, the House Republicans are insisting on replacing the purchase of corporate debt with loans to companies and insurance paid for by the companies, not by the taxpayers. That, of course, is a popular position. McCain would be comfortable to debate this issue division all day. And, if the Dems don’t cave into the Republican position, that’s probably exactly what he’ll do on Friday night’s scheduled debate in Mississippi.

But the Democrats are not about to be stubborn. They know their package is a lemon and need the political cover of Republican support. So the Republicans can write their own ticket…and they will.

These are Dick Morris’s words not my own (I’m on his mailing list). So based on this information, is there any reason that we should have egg on our faces simply because McCain is now attending that debate, as so many liberals seem to think?

Thanks!

No egg at all on anyones face except Bush, Pelosi and Reid and the folks that were trying to force feed that deal down our throats.
The deal was not finished at all. Most sources indicate the Democrats announced the ill fated deal to preempt McCains arrival. The deal quickly evaporated before McCain arrived because, as he said, it did not have bipartisan support. The house Republicans were never going to go along. They are now working on an alternative plan.
McCain did help move things along. His presence, unlike Obama’s, was productive.
McCain was right to give this problem the attention it deserves.
Weather or not the solution will be more than patch work remains to be seen.
Few people have noticed he did not say they would solve the problem overnight. Pushes to do that are idiotic. We should not be pushed into socializing the entire mortgage industry.
It’s now been shown that the deal Bush and the Dem leadership were supporting would also give massive subsidies and a large chunk of potential profits that should go back to tax payers into the hands of ACORN. Hey, isn’t that an organization tied to voter fraud, and directly involved in many of the causes of this crisis, and oh yeah Obama and the Dems fingers are all over that supposed “non-partisan” organization.

$2.25 billion for national parks. This item has sparked calls for an investigation, because the chief lobbyist of the National Parks Association is the son of Rep. David R. Obey, D-Wisc. The $2,25 billion is about equal to the National Park Service’s entire annual budget. The Washington Times reports it is a threefold increase over what was originally proposed for parks in the stimulus bill. Obey is chairman of the House Appropriations Committee.

$335 million for treatment and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases.

$50 million for the National Endowment for the Arts. $4.19 billion to stave off foreclosures via the Neighborhood Stabilization Program. The bill allows nonprofits to compete with cities and states for $3.44 billion of the money, which means a substantial amount of it will be captured by ACORN, the controversial activist group currently under federal investigation for vote fraud. Another $750 million would be exclusively reserved for nonprofits such as ACORN – meaning cities and states are barred from receiving that money. Sen. David Vitter, R-La., charges the money could appear to be a “payoff” for the partisan political activities community groups in the last election cycle.

So come on democRATS…lets hear from you. Do you really support this bill? If so….tell us why. And justify if you will, all the pork spending.

In reference to a grace period on paying your mortgage every month:

Your mortgage is due the 1st of every month. You have a grace period to make that payment up until the 15th. If you pay your mortgage payment after the 15th, you will incur a late charge. You will not show delinquent or past due on your credit report until after you are 30 days late.

However, having said that, my suggestion would be to monitor your credit reports in the weeks after foreclosure. Mistakes can happen, and it's better to fix a mistake like a foreclosure that you weren't a party to, prior to applying for a loan, rather than going through a denial notice and having to fix it at a later date before reapplying for that loan you wanted.

Best of luck. =^_^=

You can take someone to court without a lawyer but it's tough. I've done it in small claims court but that's too small for your needs. You need a full blown lawyer in a normal court.

Thank you for any advice.

First, check with your local county office to see what permits you may need. If you do remodeling without a permit it can be red tagged. You as the legal homeowner can be your own contractor and do any repairs that do not require inspection. If you hire a remodel contractor for the electrical, plumbing, etc, make sure they are able to pull the permits for that and only used licensed individuals for this work so you can get insurance on the home without problems. Keep in mind that electrical and plumbing work is less expensive if you do the demo work first and then let them run their lines, etc. Best of luck.

Thanks for your time all suggestions are appreciated!!!

You need a lawyer to review your documents and see if you can recover your $5k.

Since the house is being sold at auction, you might need to consider that your money is gone.

If in your shoes I would pack up the bulk of my stuff, but stay right where you are at. If you want any hope of recovering your deposit, I would not leave until forced to.

But for goodness sake go and consult with a lawyer or two and find out what if anything you can do.

Good luck

He will be obligated to pay this until he has done so and it is completely legal for them to attempt to collect the money owed until he has taken care of it.
