I think we are dealing with Washington wanting to cut a deal between AGs, bankers and Wall Street on both sides of the aisle to make the issue go away. That viewpoint is as shortsighted as the same de-regulation thinking that got us in this mess in the beginning. Both parties are in the financial industry’s pocket. I too voted for Obama and Change because I thought he was unlike the Republican party and their agenda, which is completely plutocratic or in the corporate pocketbook. So even if you don’t like Obama and the Democrats, what is waiting with a Herman Cain, Mitt Romney or Rick Perry is not just more of the same folks, it is out of the fat into the fire! These people are totally Wall Street clones wanting to sidestep the will of the people after they are elected. We need OCCUPY to step up with leaders that are on the side of the people to make permanent change. In the meantime, put pressure on Obama and Company to not sell out, to hold the line. We need this influence and the Credo petition to gather thousands to send a message through Occupy and our blogs that we refuse a sellout.
Washington does not realize that to settle and give immunity would ruin housing, jobs and the future of homeowners for many many years, making it impossible to unravel the mess with the courts’ hands tied. It is truly a ‘spider to the fly’ enticement that the banks are wanting now! Even now, foreclosures are beginning to flow faster again in non-judicial states, an uptick in preparation for an AG deal. There will be weeping and moaning after the fact but not doing anying, something, everything, now to stop the settlement is not an option!
Credo petition:
I told President Obama not to sell us out to Wall Street, and I hope you will too. You can sign the petition at the link below.

If Obama goes against the Citizens and sides with the banks just as he did with the Health Insurance Companies when he removed Public Option off the table, time we all start assisting that No Name Republican Candidate running for President, and he supports the 99%. His name escapes me at this time

Oblablah is a dissapointment. A spineless shill for the banksters. What’s even more irritating is I was duped and voted for him. To quote A-Man on livinglies…”NEVER AGAIN.”

The president has raised more money from employees of banks, hedge funds and private equity managers than any candidate. How do we tell a Puppet not to be a Puppet?
