What is this obsession with people kicking Bush in the balls (over and over) on a housing/economy forum? I voted for Bush the first time but once I saw that he wasn’t what I thought he was, I simply didn’t vote the next time around because I didn’t see anyone worth voting for. I’m also an ex-Republican and now an Independent with zero, party affiliation but I can see the good and bad in both parties when it shows itself. I don’t like the Iraq War and a whole lot of things about this current administration but if Gore or Kerry had been voted into the Presidency, I’m not too sure that all would have been “hunky dorey”, do you?Now, we have Obama who may turn out to be a very competent President: Or he may not!
Kicking Bush as the main culprit over the housing debacle is ludicrous when we have such self esteemed characters in this debacle like Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, etc. etc, etc. There’s plenty of blame to go around and if you want to stick your head up your ass and blame all of the problems in this country on one individual or one political party, your brain is simply wired to focus on the emotional rather than facts. Why don’t we stick to the intended focus on this forum?Ex-SD

ParticipantBuying before 2010 (at the earliest) in San Diego is a fools game. Example: If you buy now at what appears to be a bargain for $500k, it’s most likely going to be worth $400k (or less) by 2010. That extra $100k plus the long term interest, higher property taxes etc, are like flushing money down the toilet: Not to mention your resale value if you have to sell due to transfer, job loss, divorce, etc. I just don’t understand why people are rushing to buy at this time. The economy’s certainly not headed anywhere but down for the next year (++).
There are plenty of markets around the USA that are probably close to their individual “bottoms” and some are in CA. Example: I can understand why TG bought in Temecula since that area is probably close enough to it’s bottom but as the pain train moves closer and closer to the more desirable area, the prices will only fall further. The Forbes article is right on the money and if you’re thinking about signing on the dotted line for a new mortgage in 2009, you’d be wise to give it a whole lotta thought before picking up the pen.
