WJ this morning - should government aid be given to mortgage

[malaise]

holders?

1. Every single day they allow a caller to come on and say

that Barack Obama is an illegal alien. Why the fugg don't they hang up when he calls.

3. I've heard him before, too.

Interesting that the hosts were willing to correct callers who called Obama a Muslim during the campaign but they are unwilling to correct this.

2. If I had to choose between mortgage holders, the car industry, or

the financial industry, I would choose the mortgage holders.

Aid would help them stay in their homes. Aid to mortgage holders will allow them to spend money on other things, like cars, which will stimulate the financial industry and the economy in general.

I don't know why or how we have come to this place where we feel like bailing out the rich and corporate interests makes more sense than helping the back bone of the country - the little guy.

4. Not government aid, but

I think the government should state all mortgages with ARMS now MUST be renegotiated for the principal currently outstanding at a fixed rate for a 30 year period. Without exception.
