				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here are pictures of the Oroville Tea Party Patriots. The caravan started in Redding, Red Bluff, Chico then they stopped here in Oroville. We drove to Marysville and picked up more people and then made our way to the capitol city. There were many speakers in front of the capitol that day including Senator Tom Mcclintock, Assemblyman Dan Logue, Former Assemblyman Doug LaMalfa (a rice farmer from Butte county) knew the importance of more Americans Waking Up and holding Government More  Accountable and spoke about the  Loss of Jobs, 50% in the San Joaquin Valley because  the Water has been Shut Off to Farmers in the Central Valley almost Stopping Food Production. New regulations pushed thru by CARB are making it Very Difficult if Almost Impossible to Affordably Implement for owners of Diesel Trucks. If it doesn&#8217;t affect you and your family yet don&#8217;t worry it will&#8211;it&#8217;s inevitable unfortunately. Get Involved. Save Our State and Our Way of Life Here in California.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I  heard from a fellow Realtor friend that the buyers just lost out on a home they were trying to buy. They offered more than asking price and asked for a 5% credit back towards closing costs. Well the bank&#8217;s short sale negotiator in their infinite wisdom decided that they Will only credit back 3% towards closings costs not 5%.  So even tho the buyers offered more than asking price to cover the credit back, the banks uneducated rule (in my opinion) stopped the sale dead.  The funny/sad part is when the new buyer gets a loan, it&#8217;s cash to the bank in the end anyway.     <span style="text-decoration: underline">It Does Not Matter what the credit back is to the new buyer as the bottom line is what it&#8217;s all about anyway</span>.    At least I would think a negotiator should have been taught in Negotiations 101.</p>
<p>And our TARP $&#8217;s go to the bank who hires these people???  Oh that makes me feel oh so much better.</p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline">The whole point of the short sale is to save some of the sellers already tarnished credit </span><span style="text-decoration: underline">and the seller gets $ZERO equity anyway.</span></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline">Actually it is in the banks best interest to successfully negotiate a short sale. </span>Otherwise the lender/bank must go thru the foreclosure process&#8212;then faces a property that is vacant and vandalized and is now worth even less money or the seller could file for bankruptcy and tie the property up so the bank cannot sell it for a while.<span style="text-decoration: underline"> I would think It usually</span> <span style="text-decoration: underline">makes good financial sense to sell it for as much as you can, as quickly as you can and minimize the loss.</span></p>
<p> If I were the CEO of that bank and if I actually knew, that this short sale was canceled because of some imbasillic rule, I would change that rule and  hire a Realtor who knows how to sell a home and negotiate, instead of a short sale negotiator who apparently does not, wouldn&#8217;t you?</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi, My 1st Trulia blog post. I suppose I can start by saying how great it is to live here by  Lake Oroville with it&#8217;s warm evenings and usually clear skies where you can see the stars of which I am a buff. When I want to go see culture so to speak, like the DeYoung Museum in San Francisco is only a 2 1/2 to 3 hour ride, Old Sacramento is about an hour and ten, minutes that is. Reno and Tahoe are about 2 1/2 hours depending on which road seems appealing to make the drive on. Either Hwy 70 thru the foothills, following the Feather River and on to Quincy, then Portola and Reno (Stead Field for the Reno Air Races in September). Or the back way thru Bangor, Browns Valley to Grass Valley, Nevada City up the hill to Hwy 80 (busy and fast scary road I think) but quicker to get to Tahoe or Reno. Boy just typin this here makes me want to jump in my truck and go for a ride but I have clients after their work tonite so I will just stick close to home and see if I can find them a house to make a home. Bye for now. Smiles, Steffan   You can check it out if you like by going here <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.trulia.com/profile/id/701593">http://www.trulia.com/profile/id/701593</a></p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>545 vs. 300,000,000 (Republicans &amp; Democrats Alike &#8211; No One Is Blameless)</p>
<p>EVERY CITIZEN NEEDS TO <span style="text-decoration: underline">READ THIS AND THINK ABOUT WHAT THIS JOURNALIST HASWRITTEN</span> IN THIS MESSAGE. READ IT AND THEN REALLY THINK ABOUT OUR CURRENT POLITICAL DEBACLE.</p>
<p>Charley Reese has been a journalist for 49 years.<br />
545 PEOPLE<br />
By Charlie Reese</p>
<p>Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.</p>
<p>Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?</p>
<p>Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes?</p>
<p>You and I don&#8217;t propose a federal budget. The President does.</p>
<p>You and I don&#8217;t have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does.</p>
<p>You and I don&#8217;t write the tax code, Congress does.</p>
<p>You and I don&#8217;t set fiscal policy, Congress does.</p>
<p>You and I don&#8217;t control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does..</p>
<p>One hundred Senators, 435 Congressmen, one President, and nine Supreme Court justices &#8211; 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.</p>
<p>I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress. In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank.</p>
<p>I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a President to do one cotton-picking thing. I don&#8217;t care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator&#8217;s responsibility to determine how he votes.</p>
<p>Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party. What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits. The president can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it.</p>
<p>The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes. </p>
<p>Who is the speaker of the House? Nancy Pelosi. She is the leader of the majority party. She and fellow House members, not the President, can approve any budget they want. If the President vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to.</p>
<p>It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million can not replace 545 people who stand convicted &#8212; by present facts &#8212; of incompetence and irresponsibility. I can&#8217;t think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.</p>
<p>If the tax code is unfair, it&#8217;s because they want it unfair.</p>
<p>If the budget is in the red, it&#8217;s because they want it in the red ..</p>
<p>If the Army &amp; Marines are in  IRAQ  , it&#8217;s because they want them in  IRAQ  .</p>
<p>If they do not receive Social Security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it&#8217;s because they want it that way.</p>
<p>There are no insoluble government problems.</p>
<p>Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power.. </p>
<p>Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like &#8220;the economy,&#8221; &#8220;inflation,&#8221; or &#8220;politics&#8221; that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.</p>
<p>Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible.</p>
<p>They, and they alone, have the power.</p>
<p>They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses.</p>
<p>Provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees.</p>
<p>We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!<br />

<p>What you do with this article now that you have read it is up to you, though you have several choices:</p>
<p>1. You can send this to everyone in your address book and hope &#8220;they&#8221; do something about it.<br />
2. You can agree to &#8220;vote against&#8221; everyone that is currently in office, knowing that the process will take several years.<br />
3.. You can decide to &#8220;run for office&#8221; yourself and agree to do the job properly.<br />
4. Lastly, you can sit back and do nothing or re-elect the current bunch</p>

</span></div>
<div>
<div><span style="font-weight: bold;font-size: x-small">Help Save California&#8217;s Economy<br />
From its Own Government</span></div>
</div>
<div>In California&#8217;s vast and fertile central valley, the federal government</div>
<div>has shut off the water to farmers.  Fields lie fallow, and once</div>
<div>thriving orchards are dry and dead.  After generations on the land,</div>
<div>families are losing their farms.  In some areas unemployment</div>
<div>exceeds 40%.   All this to protect a &#8220;minnow.&#8221; </div>
<div>Generations of human effort and dreams destroyed, we become</div>
<div>more and more reliant on imported food,</div>
<div>and prices rise for all of us.  The government is putting fish before</div>
<div>families.  This insanity must end.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In the mountains, family owned timber operations, working and</div>
<div>managing our forests for generations, are being forced into</div>
<div>bankruptcy by the state.  The government has made their equipment</div>
<div>illegal, and regulations are so onerous that it now costs 30% more to</div>
<div>bring a standard 2&#215;4 to market in California than it does in Oregon</div>
<div>or Washington.   Even the large timber companies struggle</div>
<div>to survive. </div>
<div>In a state rich with timber resources, we import the vast majority of</div>
<div>our building materials from other states, because the cost of local</div>
<div>production is simply too high due to severe over regulation.  The</div>
<div>timber industry is literally being driven out of business by the</div>
<div>politicians and bureaucrats in Sacramento.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Industries from mining to construction, transportation to ranching,</div>
<div>and farming to concrete are suffering under impossible burdens</div>
<div>placed by unaccountable bureaucrats and arrogant politicians </div>
<div>intent on the complete destruction of California&#8217;s once world class</div>
<div>economy.   When politicians in Washington DC decide that minnows</div>
<div>are more important that the lives of California farmers, something</div>
<div>is terribly wrong.  When bureaucrats in Sacramento regulate the</div>
<div>California timber industry to the brink of extinction, without</div>
<div>concern for the families, towns and entire regions they are</div>
<div>devastating, something is terribly wrong.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Yes, something is terribly wrong.  Our politicians and their</div>
<div>appointed cronies are strangling this great state. </div>
<div>Businesses are leaving California in an unprecedented exodus</div>
<div>of capital and talent. Productive citizens and their businesses</div>
<div>are fleeing to places like</div>
<div>Texas and Nevada, which tout more business friendly policies,</div>
<div>less regulation and lower taxes.  Meanwhile, California&#8217;s</div>
<div>unemployment rate skyrockets, our cost of living increases, and</div>
<div>our politicians respond by passing even more stringent legislation</div>
<div>and higher taxes&#8230;even when we vote against it!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The laws may be different for each industry.  The regulations may</div>
<div>vary, but they are all symptoms of the same disease.  We are all</div>
<div>being crushed by burdensome regulations and taxes imposed by</div>
<div>politicians who care more for causes and political gamesmanship, </div>
<div>than people.  This is our battle; all productive people belong in</div>
<div>this fight.  When the loggers suffer, that is the farmer&#8217;s battle too.</div>
<div>When the farmer&#8217;s have no water, and food prices rise, that is</div>
<div>everyone&#8217;s problem.  For too long the politicians have divided us,</div>
<div>and used our division to keep us down.  But we will be held down</div>
<div>no longer.  But the game is up.  Now we understand what they</div>
<div>are doing, and we see where it leads.  We are the productive</div>
<div>Americans, and we will stand together, shoulder to shoulder,</div>
<div>ready to face the politicians who stand in the way of our productivity. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>The time for change is now. </div>
<div>We simply aren&#8217;t going to take it anymore. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>On August 28, 2009, in true Tea Party Patriots tradition, we will bring</div>
<div>together people and groups who have never come together before. </div>
<div>Farmers, ranchers, miners, loggers, trucking companies, cement</div>
<div>makers, builders&#8230;productive, hard working people from all political</div>
<div>parties, social affiliations and industries will descend on the</div>
<div>state capitol in Sacramento.   In association with organizations who</div>
<div>are leading the fight against onerous taxes in California, groups</div>
<div>dedicated to the preservation of farming in California&#8217;s central valley,</div>
<div>rancher&#8217;s organizations, business and industry associations, we will</div>
<div>bring thousands of California&#8217;s hard working, productive citizens to</div>
<div>the Capitol, to tell the legislators in Sacramento and DC to back off. </div>
<div>It&#8217;s a simple message; leave us alone.  We&#8217;re tired of your intrusion</div>
<div>into our lives and your ever expanding greed for the fruits of our</div>
<div>labors.  It&#8217;s time for real change.  You can change,</div>
<div>or we&#8217;ll get rid of you.  Your choice. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>It&#8217;s time that the politicians and bureaucrats got off the backs of</div>
<div>California&#8217;s productive people and freed them to produce the</div>
<div>innovation, wealth and jobs that only they can.  Government is</div>
<div>not the solution; government is the problem.  It&#8217;s time to</div>
<div>repeal AB 32, which is essentially California&#8217;s experiment in</div>
<div>controlling global warming.  It is devastating California&#8217;s economy,</div>
<div>and studies show that over a million jobs will be lost by the time it</div>
<div>is fully implemented.  And it&#8217;s time for the federal government to</div>
<div>stop worrying about minnows and to start letting California&#8217;s farmers</div>
<div>take care of themselves by providing high quality food for the rest</div>
<div>of us.  It&#8217;s time for them to rescind the Endangered Species Act, or</div>
<div>at least provide a hardship exemption to California&#8217;s central valley</div>
<div>farmers.  For the sake of our farmers and our state&#8230;turn on the</div>
<div>water and let them farm!</div>
<div> </div>
<div>But those things are just a start.  If California and the country are to</div>
<div>rebuild, then the government needs to get out of the way.  Lower</div>
<div>taxes, reduce regulation, and set Californians and all Americans free</div>
<div>to produce prosperity for the nation.   Our message to the</div>
<div>government is clear and simple; we don&#8217;t need your help, and we</div>
<div>don&#8217;t need your bailouts.  Set us free from burdensome taxes and</div>
<div>regulations and get the hell out of our way.  We&#8217;re the productive</div>
<div>people of the state of California, we&#8217;re Americans, we&#8217;re Tea Party</div>
<div>Patriots, and we&#8217;ve had just about all we&#8217;re going to take from you. </div>
<div>Fix it.  Fix it now, or we will get rid of all of you.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Government is not the solution.  Government is the problem.</div>
<div>Our relatives, loved ones, children and friends have paid the ultimate</div>
<div>price for Freedom in wars and battles over seas and to think that our</div>
<div>elected Representatives seem to be ignoring the constitution and the</div>
<div>will of &#8221;We the People&#8221; is Unacceptable. So we are mounting in numbers</div>
<div>and are excercising our right to peacefully assemble and protest. </div>
<div>They NEED TO PAY ATTENTION to the will of the people.</div>
<div>Join us as we send that message to Sacramento and Washington DC.</div>
<div>From Sacramento on August 28th, we&#8217;ll be launching the Tea Party</div>
<div>Express.  In association with Our Country Deserves Better, the</div>
<div>Tea Party Patriots will be participating in a cross country bus tour</div>
<div>with tea parties scheduled for stops across the country, culminating</div>
<div>in a massive march on Washington DC on September 12, 2009.</div>
<div><span style="font-size: x-small">If you are a business owner affected by insane government</span></div>
<div><span style="font-size: x-small">over regulation, and you&#8217;re interested in helping us with </span></div>

</span></div>
<div> </div>
<div>Many years from now, children will ask,</div>
<div>&#8220;What did you do during the revolution?&#8221; </div>
<div> What will your answer be? </div>
<div> Come join us on August 28th from noon to 5 p.m. at the state capitol in Sacramento. </div>
<div>We&#8217;re the Tea Party Patriots&#8230;and a revolution is brewing.</div>
