    NAREE Report: Foreclosure Fallout, Teller of Subprime Tales

    http://dallasdirt.dmagazine.com/2008/05/10/naree-report-fore...

    Yes, it was a grim morning today at the second NAREE session of the day, Foreclosure Fallout. Two very interesting speakers kept us perkier than a Starbucks double expresso: Steve Dexter, California Mortgage broker and author, and Richard Bitner, author of a great mortgage industry blog who was handing out pre-pub copies of his book “Confessions of a Subprime Lender: An Insider’s Tale of Greed, Fraud & Ignorance.” (I have 2 copies if someone wants to borrow).

    Dick Lugar explained that declaring Venezuela a state sponsor of terror would be a truly stupid idea. >>> “When Tom Donohue, President and CEO of the US Chamber of Commerce, said this morning that "Nancy Pelosi is an agent for Chávez", he actually got booed.“ >>> U.S. “Czar on Drugs” John Walters likes to tell reporters that Venezuela’s role in the drug trade is gaining on Colombia’s, but ha ha his own power point tells a different story.
