(I don’t remember if there really were 7 professors or not) » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 11:58 pm You are very right! He was the mayor of SLC. I dont know why I said Governor. Brain freeze! It would only be possible for a Democrat to get elect in SLC as that is as close to having a liberal section as anywhere else in the state. He doesnt care for the Prez that is for sure. He has been really talking up Huntsman. I don’t think he cares for Romney that much. I just don’t like him even talking about another party and claiming to be a Democrat. I am sure it won’t go anywhere. » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 11:51 pm NO JUICE FOR YOU or ANYBODY! http://news.yahoo.com/arsenic-detected-apple-grape-juice-samples-210406503.html However, one of my favorite old movies is Arsenic and Old Lace (1944) with Cary Grant. » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 10:47 pm KQ, I don’t know. He was a pretty popular Governor in Utah and was elected as a Democrat. So, he won there before. I have no idea why he is doing this. » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 10:36 pm And to think I use to like Rocky Anderson… New Party-Justice Party Gee, Rocky, I don’t like you anymore! » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 9:56 pm Gee, Kes, that was real nice of Ron Paul, wasn’t it? » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 9:51 pm Kes, on Lawrence Odonnel he just announced that Chase Bank has decided to let this 104 year woman stay in her home. They said they will work something out with her. Lawrence also added that Chase made 19 billion in profits this year. I think they could let this one pass don’t you? » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 7:55 pm Tax Collectors don’t care how you repay the loan to the bank. All they want is the money for the taxes that year. Of course the lady is on a fixed income so any payment is going to be hard. I am sure her taxes are $4000 for the year. They won’t lien your house until the 3rd year. If you pay atleast one of those years, they won’t lien until the next year and it being 3 years outstanding again. She is probably at that point. » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 7:29 pm Kes, there is help for the elderly but not if your house is worth more than you owe. If you have equity, you are suppose to borrow the money against your house and pay the taxes. Now, who is going to give you a loan if you are old and no one is making loans anyway?? They don’t forgive the tax but defer a portion. » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 7:07 pm Kes, there are good people in this world! Bless those men for walking away. She has lived there for 53 years! How much could she owe on that house? How much could that bank be out on it? They have been fighting the bank for years. There is more to this story, too, Kes. » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 6:44 pm That, too, Kes. And, a one year sentence that would probably been house arrest or probation for a first offense. $2000 fine is nothing. More to this story for sure. » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 6:08 pm Sue, I bet when Bloom was a little boy he loved playing with those toy soldiers, those green rubber ones. Does this mean that NY is a police state? » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 6:03 pm Bito, I don’t think I could read that and not be suspisious. They find her dead on the day she is to appear in court???? And, her attorney was concerned about her safety???? I think there may be more to this story…… » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 5:53 pm Psss, Cher, on that video…..SQUIRREL! With a pipe! » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 5:39 pm KT, I like that one, too. Hey, where’s my kudos for getting one to actually play on here? I was surprised it worked. Okay, since it worked once here is my last try for the night. I loved this one’s video:
» Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 5:34 pm This one???? (okay, lets see if I got one to work.)
» Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 4:43 pm KT, where were you yesterday. I watched for a song by George Harrison from you. George died 10 years ago yesterday. Too soon, too soon to really want to see his Sweet Lord. » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 4:03 pm Sue, to be honest, I don’t really follow that website much but I just watch for articles by Ellen Brown. (she was also on HP today with the same article but I refused to look there even for Ellen) I did look at it closer today and found some interesting things. Thank you for the other site. I will add it to my favorites and check it out. » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 3:06 pm If someone has already posted the following, sorry for doing it again. But Ellen Brown is one of my favorites when it comes to understanding national debt.

These people and their guns are getting rideculous! » Posted By SallyT On November 30, 2011 @ 12:00 am Murph, Keith Oberman has Ron Wyden on his show tonight talking about this bill. You should turn it on. » Posted By SallyT On November 29, 2011 @ 5:14 pm KQ, is that a gun on your truck or are you just happy to see me? Or should I say: not so happy to see me???? » Posted By SallyT On November 29, 2011 @ 4:39 pm I’m going to miss Barney. Thank goodness we still have Bernie from Vermont. They are two of my favorites. » Posted By SallyT On November 29, 2011 @ 4:35 pm Sen. Ron Wyden is a great senator and a real fighter. » Posted By SallyT On November 29, 2011 @ 4:32 pm Yes, KQ, that is true. I guess they see the amount of money the right is getting for that sh?! and think they should get down in it too. To bad. » Posted By SallyT On November 28, 2011 @ 10:28 pm You are channeling me, Em! I was just thinking that. I don’t know if I have anything really great but I have my mom’s recipe for oyster dressing that people seem to like. » Posted By SallyT On November 20, 2011 @ 9:36 pm Did you guys hear that they booed the First Lady and Mrs. Biden at Nascar? There were there with some children with needs and they said “Start your engines!” Those Rednecks! You know what they say about Nascar Fans. Even those watching have hit the wall a few times too many. » Posted By SallyT On November 20, 2011 @ 9:31 pm FC, have they left? Then things are looking up! If you need some help running them off again, give me a call. I’ve been know to clear a few rooms quick. Hey, I always clean at night, so, I here for ya! » Posted By SallyT On November 20, 2011 @ 9:25 pm Don’t make me get up and go make cookies! Where’s the Oreos? Me to lazy to bake tonight or even mix. » Posted By SallyT On November 20, 2011 @ 9:17 pm Maybe someday, Em. Maybe someday they will get Bushy. Hope you are having a great day! » Posted By SallyT On November 20, 2011 @ 4:07 pmComments Posted By SallyT
We had a woman here in a wheelchair and a sign saying: “I am 88 years old. My house is paid for but I am going to lose it because I can’t pay the property taxes on it this year.”
Portland doesn’t have a sales tax but our property taxes are very high. With so many people moving up here from CA and paying way too much for houses (of course still less than in Calif) and the games the banks were playing with people and home loans, we passed a bill in 2008 that they could raise property taxes by just a certain percentage each year. The housing market was booming and people were getting hit with property tax increases in enormous amounts. (Ours went up $1000) So, they wanted to control the increases and spread them out. Well, now it has gone the opposite way and our houses are worth less but the taxes are still going according to the that bill. People are in an uproar! This poor woman has been caught in that trap. That damn housing game the banks played have affected us in many ways.
No respect, Aholes!
