You can read about the previous year's Halloween party.


That’s because a former employee of Steven J. Baum recently sent me snapshots of last year’s party. In an e-mail, she said that she wanted me to see them because they showed an appalling lack of compassion toward the homeowners — invariably poor and down on their luck — that the Baum firm had brought foreclosure proceedings against.

When we spoke later, she added that the snapshots are an accurate representation of the firm’s mind-set. “There is this really cavalier attitude,” she said. “It doesn’t matter that people are going to lose their homes.” Nor does the firm try to help people get mortgage modifications; the pressure, always, is to foreclose. I told her I wanted to post the photos on The Times’s Web site so that readers could see them. She agreed, but asked to remain anonymous because she said she fears retaliation.


To read about and see their costumes, read on.

Wonder how they'll celebrate this year?

Hopefully, from jail or the unemployment line.

What brought that on? this. Original posting here.

Another example of this guy's lunacy here.

Kind of along the same topic, I just watched the documentary Inside Job by Charles Ferguson. It will piss you off big time. Glenn Hubbard, in particular, got real belligerent when questioned about compensation. These fucks should pay, and I hope the Occupy movement will steer us back the right way.

The Tea Party (as usual) is so completely off-target, as their funding from the Koch brothers intends.

"What the hell is an Aluminum Falcon?"

"Oh, I'm sorry. I thought my Dark Lord of the Sith could protect a small thermal exhaust port that's only 2-meters wide! That thing wasn't even fully paid off yet! You have any idea what this is going to do to my credit?!?!"

"What? Oh, oh, 'just rebuild it'? Oh, real [bleep]ing original. And who's gonna give me a loan, jackhole? You? You got an ATM on that torso LiteBrite?"

Early on, the Tea Party was taken over by Koch brothers and I think Rove also
