[quote=sdybob]I turn to think the underline reason of the seemingly stupid decisions is the result of the recent accounting rule change, which allows banks to use non-realistic valuation for the assets they hold. Banks pushed congress for the change and achieved their intended consequences, i.e. they can now hold bad assets as they were good assets. As such, they would rather hold onto those assets, so their books look better than they are actually are. Short sale will realize the loss and their books will look worse. Same for the pace of foreclosures, they have no urgency to get the loans off the books, instead they like them to stay in, so they do not have to look for new capitals.[/quote]

PRECISELY, they have no big interest in doing a short sale as they will have to book the loss.

Not exactly the place I would want to be now. Been there, long way in and out.
But, 20 years who knows?

[quote=equalizer][quote=Chris Scoreboard Johnston]He will always be a target because he is high profile and is a loud mouth. People in power never like people like him. Let’s just see maybe he actually did something wrong. Cases or investigations like this are not launched frivilously. The govt usually has someone nailed before they go after them on this count. If they were trying to spank him, they would have gone after him in a different way, audits etc..

I am interested to see if Sean Hannity winds up on the run once the new administration takes over. If I were him I would have stashed a mill or two outside of the country just in case.[/quote]

Liberal loudmouths who ridicule Govt officials and finance left-wing hate movies are going to get the attention of hundreds of regulators who will spend millions of dollars to come after you. And this case look like a slam dunk. Now all your critics like Hannity will be totally vindicated and you will have brought shame to your fans. Thanks, pal.

Are you buying AA yet? Maybe with a $10 Jan 2010 covered call to get $3.

I doubt that Cuban fit into your category of loud mouth liberals who ridicule the government and movies. Actually, financially Cuban does quite well, and he is no liberal, and it is likely he will serve time to be like Martha Stewart, inspite. so I think yer arrow missed the mark and you are quite confused, as I doubt he needs your assistance. But I suppose the wannabes defend poor Mark Cuban because you sense you have a shot, albeit a verry long shot.

are you another wannabe I suppose? I mean really, who cares…

[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]Larry: Didja read my paragraph in it’s entirety? Clearly not. “Yes, we’ve supported worse in our time”.

Read it again.

Plainly ignorant? Not so much.[/quote]

Actually, I did. A fair interpretation of “We’ve supported worse in our time” is to refer to our government “supporting” other despotic governments (Batista, Marcos, the Shah, etc., etc.), not an acknowledgement that our own US government imprisons people for years without charges or due process. Consequently, I stand by what I said, although I suppose in retrospect my tone was a bit harsh, but I am simply sick and tired of people who seem to think that by comparing the US to other crummy governments that the comparison somehow excuses the disgraceful actions of our own lawless government.
