Inaugural Libs Will Squat, Not Rent
We hear reports of millions coming to our nation’s capital to witness the historic inauguration of Barack Obama. They will obviously need a place to stay. There are places available, but there are few if any takers.
Like Obama supporters aren’t your stereotypical house squatters….
Across the Washington region, homeowners’ dreams of a quick and easy payday are evaporating as the days tick down to President-elect Barack Obama’s swearing-in ceremony Jan. 20: The inaugural housing market has gone bust in record time.
Those who listed their properties within a week or two of Obama’s Nov. 4 election victory were able to score deals, but those who jumped on the bandwagon after that have largely been left without offers.
Since word spread of get-rich-quick glory, homeowners flocked to online sites, flooding the market with hundreds of properties seeking upward of $10,000 for the week. But supply has far outpaced demand, said real estate agents and creators of Web sites devoted to brokering deals. This week, with the holidays over, demand has picked up slightly, the brokers said, but most people are not likely to find renters.
“I’m blown away by how little demand there is,” said Tania Odabashian, vice president at Corporate Apartment Specialists in Northern Virginia.
Tania is obviously politically ignorant or in liberal-denial.

Most of the people renting the houses out should just smack themselves on the head and realize that Liberals don’t have money!

It will probably cost more than the rent to repair the damage and replace the theft after it’s over.

Will they declare the extra $$ on their 2009 returns? Would this be considered a “windfall profit”?
