Yep, first the Keystone payback and now this. All courtesy of the US taxpayer for throwing his support behind Obama's class warfare "Buffett" tax.

How do liberals defend this chronyism by the Obama administration? How's that oligarchy treating you? Are you making hundreds of millions off of it like Obama's friends?

Who cares. He has spent years investing and living frugally. When you accomplish what he has I wonder if you would be complaining about YOUR gains.

Are you naive or do you think it is perfectly acceptable for Buffett to profit from inside information from the Obama administration, is that correct, or, did you perhaps fail to read the article in its entirety?

I could care less what you or Buffet or the poster ahead of me does with their lives.

It does NOT affect my real life one way or the other. All I said was the Original Poster would NOT be complaining if it was THEM who had all the gains there would be NO complaints (in my opinion).

The only reason I even posted on this thread is because I am extremely bored but awake because I have a tremendous cold and cannot sleep well.

If you are going to correct or challenge every post that comes along I suppose you are going to be very busy and it will show clearly that YOU alone are absolutely correct and no one else is allowed to have an opinion that goes against what YOU believe to be true.

I don't get this whole settlement thing....
Those already foreclosed will get pittance.
Does not include mortgages that were hyper inflated
before 2008. Nor Freddie/Fannie Government Mortgages -
30 M. Only applies to privately held mortgages.

The middle class that bought homes before 2008 are
the ones screwed now, with resales, regardless of who
was their mortgagor. No readjustment of principal for
them. What gives?

I see nothing to celebrate here. As far as Buffet,
guess you still can get richer on your stock options
if your "really smart

Guess Obama & Friends must think Martha Stewart was just a dumb chick.

The whole thing nauseates me.

4 cups chicken broth
Juice 1 large lemon
2 eggs

Beat eggs with lemon juice. Add to cold chicken broth.
Heat to Serve. Salt & Pepper to taste.
Have 1 heated cup four times a day.

You'll be up and running in a day or two
and you'll sleep like a baby.

I've never seen this one and thank you for taking the time to post it.

I clicked on the link by mistake because I was not going to come back to this thread, now I am glad I did.

He invested in the bank last summer, how is that profiting from inside information on this just announced settlement?

I thought the purpose of the mortgage settlement was to help those who are poor and tricked into buying things they couldnt afford.

Buffet fits neither classification.
