Michael Moore: Foreclosed Homeowners Like Rape Victims?
Newsbusters ^ | October 7, 2009 - 10:20 | Jeff Poor

No, that’s not a made-up headline. The foreclosed and/or evicted homeowners that have played such a role in the current economic meltdown - are they irresponsible borrowers that lived beyond their means or are victims that got swindled? Michael Moore is clear on where he thinks they fall.

Moore matched up with Fox News and conservative talk radio host Sean Hannity on Hannity’s Oct. 6 program and Hannity attempted to have Moore explain why he didn’t think there was a personal responsibility angle to the home foreclosure crisis.

Here’s how it unfolded (emphasis added):

HANNITY: If you put your name on the dotted line in a legal document, don’t you bear responsibility? MOORE: These people have been deceived and they’ve been exploited. You know, this is like - this is like ... HANNITY: No responsibility at all for them? MOORE: No, this is like asking a woman how short was your skirt after she’s been raped.

Apparently rape’s no big deal in the Brave New World.

Rape’s just a mortgage, or it’s not the same for hollywood girls, & etc. Basically rape’s no biggy.

I suppose this is because OBAMA’S BROTHER WAS DENIED ENTRY TO THE UK for molesting an underage British girl. They’re preparing the ground in advance maybe..

Roman Polanski non-rape-rape, or normal Newt Gingrich consensual forced rape?

But was it a foreclosure-foreclosure?

Some were cheated. They verbally agreed to one type of loan but in the hustle of paperwork at the closing signed for a different one. Most just bought too much house for what they could afford and helped their mortgage broker by lying about their income or just ignoring what the implications of a variable rate, negative amortization loan were.

I was hoping Sean would ask him about the UAW protesting the closing of the Chrysler Sterling Heights plant, which is majority owned by the UAW

Comparing the HELL Elizabeth Smart had to endure to a overextended, foreclosed and/or evicted homeowner could ONLY be uttered by an elitist lefty and not suffer the scourge of the N.O.W.

Now THAT's one of the most bizarre questions I've seen around here in quite awhile.

Caveat Emptor.

If you got screwed get a lawyer. If you've got a case they will handle it for a percentage.

Leave the govt out of it.

PS: It's not racism on anybody's part if you are an irresponsible fool who signs things you don't understand.

Well, Newt Gingrich had sex out of wedlock a few times, right? And it was consensual, right?

But the left views all things that Republicans do as crimes, so it clearly was rape.

As opposed to the non-rape-rape Roman Polanski did.

Y'see.

Moore couldn’t give Hannity an answer when asked who should be responsible for picking up the tab for these people that bought houses they could not afford in the first place. Michael Moore is slime.

No, THIS is the most bizarre question you've seen around here: Did their little door get an idea at the place that her daughters fancy boat run, or the soft house is thinking and his white round-shaped ram snores the time that a given smart eraser walks?

And I want an answer.

Dammit.
