Millions of Americans are losing their homes in the worst foreclosure crisis in recent memory, and the Bush Republicans in Washington are content to sit on their hands.
That's not good enough for the American people, so Democrats are doing everything we can to rush federal assistance to people devastated by the mortgage crisis. But again, George Bush threatened to veto House legislation to provide immediate assistance to those in need.
You can help us show our opponents that the American people are serious about solving these problems. Please sign our petition and join our efforts today.
We signed the “Stop Senate Republicans From Stalling Efforts to Prevent Foreclosures” petition!

Why is it that your allegiance to your party is stronger than your responsibility to provide for the American people. Why is it you consistently side with big profit and not the American people? Why is it you blindly move forward into the realm of destroying the "little guy" and supporting the greedy "big guys"?
It is becoming so clear to the general public that you just don't care about anything but your own personal profit and the profit of those who support you.
Shame.
It's all about profit for the few.
What happened to the words of the true Jesus? Where are you?

Democrats are trying to prevent families from losing their homes. Republicans are still looking for ways to make the rich even richer.

Dear Republicans,
I'm sending this letter to you because I'm really concern about how you really feel about hard working Families facing the chance of losing there homes after years of hard work and taking care of there love ones at the same time, its hard work. Think about when you and others Republicans started there first job and all that one had to go through in order to make ends meet, I guess this is not something you and others, don't like to think about. OK, If do think about the problems most Families are face with maybe then you'll be the first to come fourth to show the working families how much you care, and the home they have providing for there families, look forward to as they grow here in the United States. As you know a large number of Families are facing the issue of losing there home because of bad loans, and companies unknown rates, balloon payment pop-ups six months into the loan will plete the income funds, leaving no room to enjoy the American Dollar. We need your help the same way as if a baby is crying for milk. Please do not think about the ways of life, think about the soul of those whom are facing foreclosure, and the companies that place them there. Help us as we have helped you in your time of need.

People are asking: Why the bailouts of the banks and crooked financial firms who caused this disaster? And why do Republican lawmakers strangle efforts to help the real (not the speculative)economy where both homeowners and renters pay the price of Official Greed?

With all the money going overseas it is the biggest disgrace of all time what our American citizens are enduring. Our economy and our freedoms have been going through the worst of times. So much for all the promises of the Republican party for change. It has changed alright. It is shameful what has been done to our great nation. We cannot wait for November to be telling the republicans what we think of their leadership. We own our home thank Goodness but feel so bad for those like our children who have had their mortgages raised to a point of almost not eating to pay the house payments. Shame on you people who are making way too much money on these hard working people who are striving to own their homes.
