Demons.
Are “job destroyers” sitting on President Obama’s jobs council? There could be, if you believe the argument from Democrats and the Obama campaign that private equity executives are profit seekers who often run roughshod over workers, companies and communities. Two Obama-appointed members of the White House Council on Jobs and Competitiveness, an advisory committee, are [...]
Terrific.
A nifty example of a Republican pol with his eye on higher office using Birtherism to pander to the most passionately anti-Obama members of his base. Note how fine a line he’s walking here. He says he believes/hopes that O was born in Hawaii and hasn’t questioned the authenticity of the birth certificate — he [...]
Hmmmm.
Ah, I remember spending a solid month on this story back in spring 2009 when Obama and Cheney were having their war of words over enhanced interrogation. Porter Goss claimed that he and she were both briefed on waterboarding in September 2002 as members of the House intel committee, a hugely incendiary accusation given Pelosi’s [...]
Secret Facebook man.
Three members of the Secret Service have been terminated for their involvement in a prostitution scandal in Cartagena, Colombia last week, a rather indiscreet affair for the advance team to President Obama’s visit for the Summit of the Americas. It turns out that indiscretion isn’t exactly new, either. One of the agents, David Randall Chaney, [...]
No shame.
As of Feb. 21, members of the Obama family had already taken 16 extended leisure trips, 10 of which were as a family — but Barack Obama is already scouting out the family’s next potential vacation destination. At the Summit of the Americas in Cartagena, Colombia, this weekend, the president told a panel that included Colombian [...]
Insults.
Even reds have standards, my friends. No, I’m kidding. They’re indignant on behalf of the Democrats, not on behalf of themselves. Although … that’s kind of strange, no? You would think a commie’s reaction to congressmen being accused of communism would be, “What’s wrong with that?”, not “How dare you?” “I just think it’s an [...]
Wise of West to say?
This story has already gotten a lot of comment action in Headlines, but, given all the talk about Allen West for vice president, it seems to merit a full-fledged post, as well. At a town hall event in Florida yesterday, West warned his constituents that he’s “heard” that as many as 80 House Democrats are [...]
Enlightened.
In a speech at Prince George’s Community College in Largo, Md., a smug President Barack Obama smeared opponents of his energy policies as backward and unscientific in their approach: “Now, here’s the sad thing. Lately, we have heard a lot of professional politicians, a lot of the folks who were running for a certain office, [...]
Deflection.
Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell originally said he would sign into law a Virginia bill to require women to have an ultrasound before they have an abortion — but, now, he’s not so sure. He met with Virginia legislators and members of his staff to discuss the issue last night: Legislators and governor’s staff met Tuesday [...]
Must be nice.
Why not a membership to the jelly-of-the-month club? After all, that’s “the gift that keeps on giving!” But, no, nothing so affordable for the members of the staffs of three Vermont congressmen: As demands for fiscal austerity dominated debate in Washington, Vermont’s three congressional lawmakers gave their staffers a combined $236,830 in bonuses last year. … [...]
Scandal.
“Senior military officials in Kabul and at the Pentagon confirmed that the video was authentic and that they had identified the Marines as members of the Third Battalion, Second Marines, which completed a tour of Afghanistan this fall before returning to its base at Camp Lejeune, N.C. The officials did not release the Marines’ names [...]
Breakdown.
“Could it really be that 12 able legislators will fail utterly at the most important task they’ll ever be asked to do?” *** “Members of the ‘super committee’ charged with coming up with $1.2 trillion in budget cuts are focused on how to announce failure to reach a deal, Democratic and Republican aides confirmed to [...]
"Who knows? It could be a very big deal."
Members of the Occupy Iowa movement have launched a new operation, the “First in the Nation Caucus Occupation.” It’s exactly what it sounds like: A move to effectively shut down the Iowa caucuses, to bombard the Iowa campaign offices of presidential candidates and to force those who want to win the White House to talk [...]
"Some in the national team [were] rude, unprofessional, dishonest, and at times cruel."
When news broke last Friday that the five members of Michele Bachmann’s New Hampshire team had resigned, Bachmann’s national campaign manager Keith Nahigian said, “We have not been notified that anyone is leaving the campaign.” Today, Team New Hampshire issued a statement to clarify that they have, in fact, departed — and to explain why: [...]
What's different about Obama?
The members of the Congressional Black Caucus continue to be outraged at the “unconscionable” rate of unemployment among African-Americans — but they’re not employing the same tactics to force the president to pay attention to their complaints as they would ordinarily, CBC Chairman Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.) admitted in comments published today in The Miami Herald. As chairman of [...]
Whoa.
With the White House already reeling over the Solyndra collapse, a new scandal may have erupted today that could make the disappearance of $535 million in taxpayer funds look like a paperwork glitch. Eli Lake starts off his new gig at The Daily Beast with a huge bombshell — an accusation made to members of [...]
Florida courthouses are rife with evidence of errors and fabrications made by attorneys handling foreclosure cases, and yet so far no lawyers have been disciplined. With pressure mounting to police its own members, the Florida Bar established a special category of complaints listed as “foreclosure fraud.” But in 20 complaints investigated in that category, the Bar has not found cause to discipline anyone — even lawyers who admitted to breaking ethical rules. Some observers say that early track record of ignoring misdeeds by its members raises questions about whether the system of self-policing for lawyers can handle the depth of wrongdoing in the foreclosure crisis.

This letter comes not from the passionate advocates battling against the abuses of the mills, but from three members of the United States Congress. How can our judges continue to ignore the issues raised in the letter?

The multitude of serious issues surrounding the prosecution of foreclosure cases in Florida continues to grow and the need to quickly address the issues has only increased with the implementation of the new Foreclosure Rocket Dockets.
I was quite inspired after seeing Representative Kevin Ambler in court last week, and I especially appreciate the time he took to listen intently to the issues we shared with him. I remain hopeful that our elected leaders and judges will respond to the crisis that is playing out in our courtrooms by establishing a level playing field between the borrower and whomever the plaintiff happens to be.
I hope that all of you will reach out individually to elected leaders, judges and members of the press and I’m hopeful that the collective voices will provoke the change so desperately needed!
KEEP UP THE FIGHT!
