"The sting operation which resulted in this arrest is an example of one of the tools now used by law enforcement to fight the Atlanta area mortgage fraud problem, which is one of the most severe in the country," said U.S. Attorney David E. Nahmias. "Sting operations like this one should put mortgage fraudsters on notice that they can never be sure who is monitoring their criminal schemes. Fraudsters should understand that they may be spending their nights in jail rather than in the neighborhoods they have targeted." biz.yahoo.com

Is George Bush really good for Big Business? The big myth is that George Bush is great for Big Business. I don't see this great connection. I never did, by the way. I never saw Ronald Reagan do it. I never saw [Bush's] father do it. Without Bill Clinton, we wouldn't have had NAFTA. Without the North American Free Trade Agreement, we would have been really behind the eight ball in competitiveness. So Bill Clinton did a lot for business? Yes. You heard it here first. businessweek.com
