The other shoe drops.

How many POS Congress Critters did not get preferential mortgage loans? Below market mortgages is what our Senators talk about in the Senate cafeteria

Yowsa! And and the beat goes on!

I can just see Michelle threatening to beat the crap out of Obama if he didn’t grab this sweetheart mortgage

This article is nothing more than a racist attack on Obama. A candidates loans should be off-limit to criticism just like his wife, his children, his pastor, his dogs, past voting record, drug use, any sexual encounters, etc, etc...

Not really needed but I’ll add it anyway - [/sarc]

“When the Obamas secured the loan, their income had risen dramatically. Obama assumed his Senate seat in January 2005, with an annual salary of $162,100. That same month, Random House agreed to reissue an Obama memoir, for which it originally paid $40,000, as part of a $2.27 million deal that included two future nonfiction books and a children’s book.”

they need more specifics: ‘better than the average’ doesn’t mean much. He was low risk given the income.

This will be spun as being racist for pointing out that he did not get a subprime loan like many of his “black brothers”. End of story.

Obama is not only a Marxist and an abject anti-American, he is a corrupt one. But that goes with the territory and shows us exactly what he will do if he ever gets his hands on the reigns of power.

The Freshman Senator hoped to get a sweetheart loan so he could change his address. I see nothing hypocritical here.

The WaPo is bringing this out now.

It would have helped Hillary, so they’ve waited until she is toast. And bringing it out early will provide innoculation against it in the fall.

I got about the same rate, with no discount points, on my home loan 2.5 years ago. Doesn’t seem to be a big deal to me.

In the cesspool called “Chicago politics”, this is insignificant. Obama was raised partially as a Muslim out of the country and partially as a Chicago politician. The biggest threat to this nation comes from the latter.

But wait, didn’t Pelosi Galore and Reid the walk dead tell us that only Republicans did horrible things like this.

Besides this is just racial bs from bitter white Americans, who could get a loan like this to buy more guns.
