Fannie Mae-No Politics (FNMA)

[yambike]

Barron4664,

The substance of Sammon's petition is precisely why it's so devious. Yes, on its face, he argues a good point. That the Court of federal claims is unfair because it deprives the plaintiffs the jury of its peers. And that the case has been strung out too long.

But you need to weigh the petition NOT on what he says but on WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF HE PREVAILS. Only then will the true motive be evident.

If he were to prevail, the court will either dissolve or lose jurisdiction with the end result being a halt to the document discovery. And the halt will be INDEFINITE! Instead of expediting an outcome, it will be postponed indefinitely. I am inclined to believe that Sammons is aware of this, and that this is precisely his aim.

My other argument is this: why has Sammons singled out Sweeney? For example, if the issue is the jury thing, why didn't he bring it up in other venues where we were similarly deprived? Also why is he bringing up one tenuous complaint after another against the ONLY JUDGE who's given us much headway? All without the solicitation or sanction by the lead plaintiff, I might add.

Remember, before this, Sammons brought up jurisdictional issue. When that didn't work, he brings up the constutionality of the entire claims court, right on top of another. It's as though he's trying to improvise his way, being more creative if unsuccessful, going further out on a limb in an attempt to undermine her in any way possible. Trying anything in desperation to take the case away from her.

The records are replete with instances where the previous administration went to great lengths to hide the truth. If not the GSE thing, it was the Clive Bundy thing. If not that, it was the IRS political targeting. There are more examples but some of those are less substantive. All eye opening though.

If the prior administration was not adverse to those things, why would they be any less inclined to pull this stunt?

Something sinister is afoot. No logical way to explain Sammons otherwise.

Either you don't get it, or you do and share a similar motive.
