    HUD Director Ben Carson Doesn't Know the Difference Between a Oreo and a REO

    As the head of Housing and Urban Development one would hope he would be familiar with real estate. Trump wanted to nominate him to the Federal Reserve.

    Zippy, with all due respect, this is the most troubling video posted by you I have ever seen. You may have wanted to cast doubts about MAGA's judgment or attack the 'MAGA surrounds himself with the best people' narrative but what were you thinking when you posted this dangerous propaganda video here?

    You have given all GOP/Libertarian MAGA-primary hopefuls as well as Dems a free 2020 ad clip that they will play nonstop during election season. This kind of spelling ambush attack on his then cabinet member had helped make Bush Sr a 1-term Prez ... and back then there were no social media memes.
    You have done serious harm to MAGA 2020 chances at a critical juncture when Foxnews polls, Iowa farmers MAGA fatigue, Drudge headlines all were all piling on and Coulter had crossed the line with her latest attack.


    Q. Media frenzy over which spelling ambush helped make Bush Sr a 1-term Prez?

    Ya, I'm still in the camp that I'd rather have a President who doesn't know what the latest foreign policy propaganda frenzy in the news is about.. and I'm not sure that I want people who run the various agencies to be experts in those fields. It gives people the impression that if we put experts in charge of these departments, that some how they will be of benefit when in fact they should just be shut down.

    Competence sometimes is overrated, I would concede.

    But would you hire someone to drain a swamp who has no expertise in swamps / has never been in a swamp?

    This is inexcusable... on top of the harm that this video clip will do to 2020 'surrounded by the best' ads budgets. You have not done any favors to the orange man today.

    Why aren't we discussing the fact that the FHA loan program has a higher foreclosure rate than private loans? Could it be that government subsidies are bad?

    Hermain Cain has already been chairman of multiple federal reserve branches. That seems to make him qualified; maybe you really just don't like him because he is black and looks like all those other blacks on the streets selling drugs.

    I miss the old zippy, he never would have made that mistake.

    Zippy has always been a racist.

    Anyways, it is quite clear he is literally saying Herman Cain is not qualified is because he is black.
    It was beyond ZIP's realm of imagination to even think Herman Cain could be qualified.

    Too stupid to google the black man before shooting off his mouth again. He was so sure black man dumb. Black man victim. Black man just token for bad orange man.

    Under normal circumstances, the loans are funded with fees and payments on other loans- a self funding program. They did require a bailout though from the housing bubble.

    https://www.hud.gov/program_offices/housing/fhahistory

    How is FHA funded?

    FHA is the only government agency that operates entirely from its self-generated income and costs the taxpayers nothing. The proceeds from the mortgage insurance paid by the homeowners are captured in an account that is used to operate the program entirely.
    Not saying they do a great job or a better job than private industry would.

    So you are saying Herman Cain is unqualified to chair the Fed because he's black, or because he only chaired two different fed positions?

    Of course they don't. They're writing all of the loans that real mortgage companies won't touch. So they're artificially inflating the cost of borrowing as well as housing prices.

    And the woman in white is all up in arms because people who shouldn't have been allowed to borrow money aren't able to pay it back? But the black banker guy isn't qualified to run a department that is marketed to high risk individuals - that's your concern?

    Seriously, when the private sector does this, they call it "predatory lending."

    Jesting aside, perhaps should give benefit of the doubt to OP without making worse case assumptions about motives regarding what could have been a simple mistake... especially from any supporters of the guy who had tweeted this collectivist thought:

    I thought the OP was about Oreos, but we can discuss things of substance too, as long as we don’t go too far off-topic and the thread starter requests a split.

    Oh you missed it?

    Zippy just showed his KKK (aka DNC) roots.
    He just said Herman Cain is not qualified to be a fed chairman, and it has nothing to do with race.

    I'd like to know what it has to do with, then.

    Far more interesting than your conversation, which by the way, is a little bit off topic.

    The topic of this thread is whether Ben Carson is qualified to be head of the HUD.
    Zippy for some reason thought mentioning Herman Cain is not qualified to be the head of the Federal Reserve was pertinent to the conversation for some reason.

    It has nothing to do with the OP, except both are black.
