What’s the difference who you vote for, the banksters own them all anyways, we have 1 party rule here in the new united states of amerika, the banksters. They get to counterfeit money from thin air, they get to use this “money” to buy votes in CONgress, and pretty much do whatever the hell they want. It is the people vs the banks, in the final knock down drag out battle !!

Just wondering, if no one voted or hardly anyone voted in the upcoming elections if that would send a powerful message to Washington. Republican , Democrat, they are all the same to me. I have lost complete faith in everything . This may sound jaded but to me these people are all the same. There seems to be rampant corruption everywhere from the top down. No checks or balances anywhere for these WALL STREET CROOKS AND BIG BANKSTERS. How can we have a civilized society when the system is so broken and corrupt to its very core? Media around the world and a few of our mainstream news media, are telling the truth about FORECLOSUREGATE and showing this once great country is merely a shell of what it once was.

In reply to MktMaven.

Updated the top of the page…

“Although this article is from 2008, it is still outrageous that this was even happening.

I published it to make people aware that this was happening in the last election and may be happening again.”

Tnx

This story is so stale it compromises the credibility of your blog. It should be removed or properly dated at the very least. Keep up the great work that you are being recognized for. I have become a great fan of your work.

They did try to remove our homestead but I kept calling and went to the tax appraisers office until they put it back on. The fat lady hasn’t sung here yet…

However, in researching the article, I came across another interesting factoid.

1- http://michiganmessenger.com/tag/james-carabelli

… which took me to …

2- “Judge in today’s DNC foreclosure lawsuit hearing specializes in last-minute election battles” …

http://michiganmessenger.com/5626/judge-in-foreclosure-lawsuit-specializes-in-last-minute-election-battles

The interesting part …

The use of foreclosure lists would be a new form of what is called “caging,” or systematic efforts to disenfranchise voters on technicalities — something the RNC has been caught doing several times in the past and has promised in judicial consent decrees not to do anymore.

Hebert, who spent two decades in the Justice Department under Republican and Democratic presidents alike, much of that time in the Voting Rights Division, placed this latest skirmish in the context of a long history of similar efforts by the GOP, writing on his blog that “the GOP has a long history of engaging in voter suppression efforts. The Party has persisted with the practice because it has proven effective. The GOP schemes have also led to injunctions being imposed by the courts barring specific voter suppression efforts. If the claims of possible vote challenges to those who have received foreclosure notices were against a clean historical slate, then such claims might be a little hard to believe. But they aren’t. They arise against a stain of GOP vote suppression extending over a number of decades.”

Note that Mr. Gerald Hebert, & I are not related.

Draw your own conclusions.

Correct me if I am wrong, but the story “Lose your house, lose your vote” dates from 2008
