Reply #95: so why did it take 15 months for this to come out?

I'm just not understanding why there was such a keen need on the part of the seller to keep secret the fact that they accepted the best offer for the house they wanted to sell. Is that illegal? Is that embarrassing?

Buying a house at $300,000 below asking in 2005 is nothing, the upper markets well well aware by that time that the real estate market was about to tank. That's not the part Obama needs to explain. What he need to explain is why it's taking him 2 years now, and still counting, to provide details of what happened.

That's a taint he will never get rid of.
