redmondjp, I agree

The MSM really has picked up on the housing / credit bubble. I think the failing subprime lenders is what finally made them take notice of the situation.

Anyone else catch those REALTOR(r) commercials on last night during the NCAA Tournament?

I can't find a link to it, but it went something like this:

"If you have a family, it's always a good time to buy."

"The market is great right now, in terms of selection..."


Etc...

Propaganda at it's finest....they must be really scared to be blowing that kind of money.

Well, it appears that we're quickly approaching the time when housing bubble blogs will have to change focus,.....

So what's the next sure thing bubble? I want to get in on it early, make my million $$$, retire, sit back and drink Coronas without any worries for the rest of my life.

Isn't that the modern American dream retirement plan?

There has to be an extended period of gloating before the bubble blogs can change focus. It just wouldn't be right to let the MSM think that they uncovered this story on their own....

flippinglosers.com, anyone?

One of the other choice lines from that commercial was something like this:

"We could buy for the same money we were spending to rent, so we decided to buy."

Found it!

The infamous video that is part of NAR's $40 million Public Awareness Campaign.
