the latest cause-celeb on local libturd tv news last night...

She took out an adjustable-rate mortgage a few years ago to get $12,000 to pay some bills. Eventually, her monthly payment jumped from $1,200 to $2,200. Meanwhile, she lost her job with an African American women's advocacy group.

she doesn't sound too bright.

If she is a conservative, honest tax paying, white Christian...she deserves to be evicted!

Sorry folks but this smacks of a women in a made up job expecting the lender to give her this house. Sorry lady maybe a job with a little more stability than this is needed to buy the house.

I have no problem with them helping her but why don’t they take up a collection and let her pay off her loan if it is so important. She owes the money, she made a bad decision, she needs to pay up or lose the home, period.

From the article

She stopped making house payments, and the house went into foreclosure.

No tickee, no shirtee!

I guess she should have asked what ARM meant when she closed on her mortgage

She is not getting a lot of sympathy from the comments section.

Sounds like she knew exactly what she was doing being a life long activist

“My mother was an activist before she died,” said Williams. “My grandfather was one when he came out of Decatur, Alabama. It’s in my blood.”

Wonder if deadbeat runs in the blood also?

This legislative session we will place our demands on Minnesota politicians. Join the MN Coalition for a People’s Bailout in the fight for:
Jobs and income now!
Extend unemployment benefits.

Make more workers eligible for unemployment benefits.

Create a public works program that puts people to work now.

Put a moratorium on the 5-year time limit for public assistance.

No cuts to programs that serve working and low-income people!
Place a moratorium on home foreclosures!
No evictions for renters in foreclosed buildings

No attacks on immigrants!
Protect public education. No tuition hikes!
No one in Minnesota should be cold or hungry!
No layoffs!
No attacks on wages.

No layoffs for University of Minnesota workers and all public employees in Minnesota.

Tax the rich, make them pay for their crisis!

Yep Acorn with a different name

There is a stench about this one from both sides.

Any banker that makes a loan to someone one with no job, deserves to lose.

even at 10%,the mortgage would on 12,000,move up 1200 a year,or 100 a month. someones facts have to be way off. if the loan was 120k,then it would make more sense.

Since this is Talk Like Shakespeare Day (its his 445th birthday), I'll say..
The lady doth protest too much, methinks.
and....
Out, damn'd spot! out, I say!
One; two: why, then 'tis time to do't.
Hell is murky.—Fie, my lord, fie,
$1,200 for a $12,000 loan? Then it jumps to $2,200?!? The Mafia would have given her better rates!

Something is rotten in Minneapolis!
