Obama’s Mortgage Refinance Proposal

Feb 1, 2012

President Obama called on Congress Wednesday to make it easier for millions of homeowners to refinance their mortgages at lower interest rates even if they owe more than their homes are worth.

If I were him I would DELAY the Keystone Project permit into next year’s election politics. See...
