Move over, Santelli, there’s a new ostentatiously outraged sheriff in town. Between this and the CNBC “rant heard ’round the world,” expect every financial reporter on cable to start throwing their own atomic fits in hopes of media stardom and, just maybe, a book deal or two. What finer way could there be to start the day than watching a red-faced Erin Burnett pound the desk on “Morning Joe” while hollering about creeping socialism?
You’ll recognize Bertha Lewis, I trust, from her creepy “by any means necessary” post this weekend at HuffPo. Exit question: How much more explosive would this interview have been if Varney had been armed with the boss’s deep background info?

Children, there’s this thing called satire. It was once a great comedic form in the land. However, I guess it has gone the way of free-market capitalism. :(

Oh, but even the huffpo commenters weren’t having any of Ms. Lewis’ crap.
Quisp on February 23, 2009 at 4:03 PM
Allah,
You keep treating Santelli like he’s some cable hack. Why don’t you take the time to go look at some of his older reporting from the last year on Youtube. He’s consistently “gotten it right.” He’s not some fatcat trader who wants to yell at Democrats.
He always delivers his reports in this manner. He speaks passionately, but not foolishly.
He’s called out every bailout package (yes the ones for the banks, too). He’s called out the Fed for blowing it. He’s called out whoever needs to be taken to task.
So let’s not lump this guy with the typical cable newsie with a chip on his/her shoulders.

The $1,000,000,000 that goes to ACORN from the stimulus package will insure that the harm they are dedicated in causing will be increased tenfold so that any election in the future will be tainted with the socialistic pressures brought to bear by their unscrupulous attacks.

A. are a faker;
B. are schizophrenic / a Rick Astley fan; or
C. voted for Eugene V. Debs in 1912
because so sane person has used the word “bourgeois” or willingly has listened to Rick Astley since 1989.

This is part and parcel of the O’Bama doctrine of victim status. Total unmitigated nonsense. She is waiting for the handout.
She just became the poster child of the Republican rout in 2010. Surely 92% who pay their mortgages and are having a hard time doing it will have enough of this claptrap by then if we are all not in unemployment lines.

she came around to it eventually, but eventually she admitted that the delinquent mortgage owners aren’t making their payments, but eventually lies again by saying that they are.
Stuart Varney pwned her.

faraway on February 23, 2009 at 4:15 PM
I don’t know if anyone else noticed this, or my perception of what he was getting at was just incorret, but about the reporter talking with Varney. He’s trying to get him to “admit” that there are some legitimate problem mortgages out there. He talks about the “predatory lending” issue, but the goes on to say something about “Real heartache cases and people who have lost thier jobs……….” and seems to imply that these are the people that should be helped. I’m sorry, but as much of an ass as I may sound, people have been losing their jobs, and then their houses, for decades and longer. Just because there’s more of them now doesn’t mean that my tax dollars should go to bail them out. Feel sorry for them (The one’s that lost their jobs and means of paying bills), you bet. Feel like I’m obliged to help them out. Nope. Victims of predatory lending, well 1) most of them were to dumb/stupid/ignorant (pick one) to realize they weren’t able to be in a house on their income (or just failed to read the contract, again their fault) 2) they may have legitimate legal recourse in the future to get back some of all of their money if there we knowingling wronged. So the Varney guy, hit’s the nail on the head for me. And this trouble maker he interviewed, should be in jail for inciting illegal activities.

I actually went to HuffPo yesterday just to see if anyone had a coherent argument in favor of the Bertha/ACORN tactics. Happily (and surprisingly), the outrage over there was about as strong as it is here. No one (save for one commenter) supported ACORN’s tactics, plus the comments had lots of juicy details about the ‘foreclosed’ woman – she is/was an ACORN employee, refinanced the house at least twice, rented her basement illegally, etc.
All in all, it was a rather pleasant trip over to the dark side.

INC on February 23, 2009 at 4:20 PM
I read part of the Bertha Lewis post on HuffPo until I had to go puke. Part of the story is about a woman (ACORN member) that was evicted 6 months ago. She and band of thugs went to reclaim “her house.” It says she used bolt cutters to get inside, but the house was trashed to include the toilets being gone.
Having secured distressed properties for lenders, if the house was trashed, it was because previous hoodlums had broken in. If they took the toilets out, I can guarantee that there was a door or large window knocked out to accomplish this. Not sure why they needed bolt cutters to get inside.
ACORN, in a just world, would be shut down under RICO and the members fined and or imprisoned.
TugboatPhil on February 23, 2009 at 4:20 PM
He makes a mistake though: when she argues that we bailed out the banks, he should have nailed her for that being the first mortgage bailout — where over 5 million people — most with subprime loans — bailed! He should have nailed her for this. Put her front and center and made her responsible for her and her organizations actions.
The Frontiersman on February 23, 2009 at 4:20 PM
I had to check. Here’s the free cellphone commercial.
I looked at the plan details from the carrier buying the ad time for a couple of states where it provides service. It’s 40-80 minutes per month of free airtime. These carriers must be making a mint by billing the govt full price for the free phones that they are giving out. I bet you get a new one each year too.
rw on February 23, 2009 at 4:20 PM
The woman claimed that millions of homes are foreclosed every day. Assuming that was just 2 million per day, the entire country would be homeless mid year. I think this number belongs with Pelosi’s “500 million jobs lost every month” figure in the “exaggerations that make no sense” bin.
I also don’t understand why people are complaining about these loans being predatory. You could say that the bank made a bad decision and lent money to someone that would not likely be able to pay it back, but, all the banks are asking for (in the case of foreclosure – the bailout being a different though related matter) is that they be given the house back so that they can try to resale it. That’s how a loan works and I don’t see anything predatory about this. It’s not like they went to small children or developmentally disabled people and got them to sign on to a loan – that would be predatory. This is just gambling on long odds.
The only people I feel sorry for in this are the people that took loans that they could afford but are now unable to afford them due to loss of a job or death/injury of a primary provider. My guess is that those people are so few in number that it would be quite easy for charity groups to help them out and the government wouldn’t even need to be involved.
JadeNYU on February 23, 2009 at 4:20 PM
And when Obama’s plan does not work, his spin doctors will simply say, “Thanks to the failed economic policies of the Bush administration, the problem was a lot worse than we expected so we’ll have to spend even more money to help these poor people.”

Technically Mexican is as different from Spanish as American is from English.
Esthier on February 23, 2009 at 4:23 PM
Also, does she realize that actions like these will make it much, much harder for folks on the border line to get a loan in the future?
It’s one thing to take a risk on someone who might not be able to repay the full loan if you’re only going to have to deal with the legal hassle of foreclosure.
It’s another thing entirely if you risk having them get a band of thugs together and squat in the house YOU LEGALLY OWN and refuse to leave.

I started watching him on Fox Business over lunches. The channel seemed somewhat politically neutral during the election, at least in tone, but seems to be drifting more toward the right (or maybe that is just because they are the closest to the ways the dems are destroying the economy, and they are starting to panic).

America is the land of equal opportunity, not equal outcomes.
You got the loan. You bought the house. You could not pay for it. Bad choice. Deal with it. Happens every day. Credit cards, autos, TV’s, etc., etc.
Making a bad choice does not make you a victim.

Imagine that, financial reporters appear to be more excercised about all of this than the MSNLSD reporters, the CNN cub reporter (uber trendy)Ali Velshi or the weather guy. Go figure.
Maybe the financial folks are all glory whores (as you suggest AP) or maybe it has something to do with the fact that some of these folks actually understand the utter incompetancy of this administration and the resulting misery that they are intent on inflicting.

Simple analysis:
I am far happier to pay for these idiots to live in a jail cell (for trespassing, etc.) than I am to pay for them to stay in homes that they cannot afford and should never have gotten in the first place.
What has blood shooting out of my eyes is that fact that ACORN still exists as a legal entity. Voter fraud, burglary, trespassing, inciting felonies… yet they have their very own piece of pork carved out of Spendulus. Meanwhile, paying your bills and earning money have become criminal behavior that must be punished by any means necessary.

Excellent. Why should anyone have to be responsible for normal wear and tear and market fluctuations in housing prices when they can get the government to step in and make sure their house is always worth at least what they paid for it, and if not, bail them out? My parents, may they rest in peace, never sold a home that was worth more than what they paid for it until the late 80s. It was a given way back when that when you bought a house it was NOT going to be worth as much as you paid for it years later, any more than your car would be. What we have is a nation of people who think they’re entitled to, well, entitlements.
scalleywag on February 23, 2009 at 4:47 PM
The “700″ billion the ACORN criminal kept spouting about….a few facts:
1.Feds Forced the Banks: The bank were mostly forced to take the money (in the case of BoFA, they eagerly gobbled it up because they are near failure)
2. Loan Vs Stock Sale: The money wasn’t GIVEN to the banks, the banks were forced to sell preferred stock to the Govt. Therefore, it wasn’t a loan, or a handout, it was an exchange of value.
3.Intended use of the 700 Billion: The original 700 billion was used to buy that preferred stock in hopes the banks would lend it out. It was NOT given to the banks so those banks would pay the loans of irresponsible borrowers
4. Feds Forced Predatory Lending: I will not excuse banks of their share of predatory lending. It happens, but not as often as you might think. There are many laws, enforced laws, that banks must obey in regards to lending. But the Feds, through pressure from ACORN no less, forced banks to create and sell predatory loans. Then the Govt said they would back those loans by having Freddie and Fannie buy them–thus removing a normal bank’s fear of selling risky loans.
Again, this mortgage situation was caused by Govt. It was manipulated by ACORN and now both groups are acting like the saviors. This is disgusting.
ACORN is a thoroughly corrupt organization. That news casters did a great job of speaking plain truth to the ACORN criminal. He pulled no punches and all she could do was ignore his facts and spout populist drivel.

I lost my job in 2000, and I could no longer make the payments. To avoid adversarial foreclosure, I signed voluntary foreclosure (similar to a quit claim in some places). I did kiss about $10,000 in equity good-bye. I found a new job and moved into an apartment in another state. (The voluntary foreclosure was not placed on my credit report.)
Now I have almost enough saved where I can buy what once was a $200,000 house for about $125,000 or less.

You know what they call a person who can’t afford a mortgage? RENTER
You know what happens if you don’t pay your rent? You get EVICTED!
There are just as many renters losing their jobs and now their taxes will go to keep others in their unaffordable homes? This is INSANITY.
