   Hah! In my neck of the woods, WF had a brand spankin’ new building erected for a new branch, then within 2 years, decided to abandon it in favor of a less expensive to operate supermarket mini-branch in the store down the street from which its reps often annoyed shoppers.

   Two years later, it decided it really did nead a stand alone branch office, and had another brand spankin’ new building erected one block down the street from its previous building which is now shared by two fast food outlets.

   With decision making like that, I figured it was a bank to avoid.

    Off topic, but headline on Drudge Report:
    Obama to join Fox broadcast booth for All-Star Game
    I assume he will have his teleprompter with him! I am so sick of his ego trips! And doesn’t he have better things to do? You know, like running the country? If I thought all these distractions would keep him from destroying us, I would say, go ahead. But he continues to rip the heart out of America as he plays President. Yeah, he is having a blast, riding in that cool airplane, seeing the world, basking in the adulation of his flock, partying with his cronies, spending $8,000 on his wife’s purses, flying in pizzas from across the country…what have I left out? As for the All Star Game, now I have a great reason NOT to watch it. Geez!!!!

    This story makes me think of Black Bart, the Old West outlaw who was fond of robbing the Wells Fargo stagecoach. A poem he left behind on one robbery seems relevant today…

    “I’ve labored long and hard for bread,
    For honor and for riches
    But on my corns too long you’ve tread,
    You fine-haired sons-of-bitches.
    Black Bart, the P o 8″

    I’m thinking this is genious. When you sue yourself, if you lose you win! By extension of course if you win, you lose. So they’ll need to get top liberal lawyers on the case to insure its ultimate defeat so they can win.

    About Wells Fargo suing itself: can’t be worse than talking to myself. After all, when you are smart as I am, I better listen. Sometimes I tell myself things that even I didn’t know. Maybe Wells Fargo searched deep into its soul and found something so disturbing that they just had to sue themselves.

    What a world.

    There may actually be a logical reason for this, although one that should never have been allowed to happen.

    If Wells is the 1st and 2nd lienholder, it means they made a sub-prime loan. That means the buyer probably wasn’t good for it anyway. Remember, many banks were practically forced into this nonsense through legal efforts from the left. The second loan may have been made through a subsidiary, or just a “line of credit” from the same entity.

    Wells most likely decidied it needed to take action against the buyer, and the difficult choice is filing any suit, because both entities probably cannot sue at the same time, and in a case like this the primary lien holder must sue everyone else, even if one of the other parties is itself.

    Again, the idiocy here is that through legal pushing and shoving, the bank made this loan to begin with to a deadbeat. Now we get to watch an odd comedy unfold.

    BTW: Wells Fargo is considered one of the best home mortgage banks in the country.

    Obama is going to nationalize every house in America! You may or may not pay your mortgage. Either way, before the end of his first term, you won’t own the property!

    This is insanity! He is going to give us free cars. He is going to pay our rent. He is going to pay our mortgage. He is going to give us health care. Shucks, I might as well quit now and save my employer the trouble of laying me off with a big severance package!
