Are you for real? Consolidation? Are you as transparently stupid as your other moderator who suddenly has reluctant tounge when called out for having anti-OSU positions when they have a job as a moderator at an OSU site?
Hilarious. Winning.
Why do you all lie to our face?

Too long did not read. Agreed. It did not make sense which is why the FBI investigated and people went to jail. My dad had the sense to get out.
You clearly have no idea how property values are huge challenges for appraisers in rural areas that don't have obvious comps. That is where organized crime steps in. How naive are you?
What I’ve learned from this thread is that BRT is a lying liar.
And a faggit.
And a faggit.
TLDR from an educator? Mental midget educator and when you can not win on an academic level you ignore the truth. I respected you enough to actually give you a serious response, had a feeling I was wasting my time. Readers are leaders. Figures, waaaay over your head. You will never get a job at a private school, you belong in the public school system.
Now you are claiming people went to jail (that is new info), well that is public record. Go to this site:

Look up those cases and prove us all wrong, I double dog dare you.
You just addressed about 1/6th of the people involved in the transaction. So we go from Bob Stitt the crook to shady appraisers?
How hard it is to value acreage alone and the value of the house sitting on it? Seriously? Acreage sells all the time. We know what it costs per square foot to build new anywhere in Oklahoma, valuing an existing structure sitting on an acreage is not rocket science. Banks that make loans in these areas are not dumbasses and they will rely on appraisers that they trust to come in with a conservative appraisal and that is making an appraisal within their expertise, and not an inflated one that exposes them to more risk. If a bank knows it its outside of its lending expertise a loan is not happening.
I use to do appraisals in and around Jackson Hole WY. We had comps all the time that were 20+ miles away and sometimes over the 3 or 4 months past what we wanted to see as legit. Even had to ride a snowmobile about 6 miles once because the addition didn’t plow roads in the winter. Had the banks ever suspected we were inflating prices or using unreasonable comps, we would have gone out of business.
Throw some dragons and laser beams in this story and I'll believe it.
Brtinla......when you’re teaching do you give all sides a fair assessment or do your views leak into the lessons? Only asking because when I taught it was really hard to keep my political opinions in check. I managed to do it almost all the time, but it was hard. Always wanted to try to illicit opinions from the kids and try to get them to look at things from a number of angles.
Didn’t vote for Stitt, but give the man a chance, maybe he will surprise you.

Not being in OK anymore and not researching the vote, etc., I am assuming this all boils down to more money for you brt had the other candidate prevailed. What make syou think you deserve more money? Do you think you excel at your profession? Merit? Sure, we all want more money, but I've never heard of a teacher that chose the profession for the money outside of a professor (maybe).
brt, serious question here. Does Gateway Mortgage service their own loans? If not your scenario is not plausible. Too many checks and balances for the actual lender to allow this type of thing to go on. 15 years ago maybe, today no.

that's a lot of stuff happening way out of sequence it seems.
FBI visited twice and yet no charges were made.... so maybe it didn't happen????????
I would imagine I'm here for the same reason everyone else is, OSU sports. I can be a graduate of OSU and still acknowledge that the education you receive there is a waste of money.
You teach the material without bias. You then ask the students what they think. If you see healthy debate you leave it alone. If you see group think developing you play devils advocate and take the opposite view. I can make a liberal case better than a liberal can and vice versa. The key is to get them thinking and not conforming.
I think things probably did happen. I think people got indicted. All I know is it freaked out my dad, who quit working for them. The first thing he said when he answered the door and the FBI announced themselves was: I have been waiting for you guys.
In any case, this has gone far enough outside my original rant: disappointment that Oklahomans would again vote to be mediocre
Really? What a fine, loyal and true graduate you are. Again, why are you here you self loathing piece of shit? Go away.
While I’m no big fan of Stitt, you think Edmonson was anything more than mediocre?
What I am concerned about is the next recession, which is long overdue. Most states increased taxes in 2008 to prevent devastating cuts in education. Oklahoma did the opposite, they doubled down on tax cuts which made things worse. We have never recovered. We are spending 200 million less on public education in Oklahoma than we did 10 years ago, with 45,000 more students. IN REAL DOLLARS, not inflation adjusted dollars
People forget, Reagans first act as Governor in California was to raise taxes to support education. When turbulence hits, Edmondson would have protected Education. Stitt will cut to the bone again. Are you ready for Oklahoma to go from 4 day school days to 3? You weren't in the slightest embarrassed by school districts going to 4. Might 3 do the trick? How about 2? When is the level low enough to finally stop voting for that person with the big R beside their name? Have you no shame at all?
No I just have the expectation that if I pay for the public education system, that the system fulfills its part of the social contract. Instead, it's only interest is to defraud the public out of more money
Late to this thread.
brtinla needs to move to Cali.
@Marshal Jim Duncan and @OKSTATE1. Make some good points from someone who went though Penn Square and later the S&L fiasco.

You have no baseline to state that is what Stitt will/would definitively do. You’re pissed about a “possibility” not anything that has actually happened. I respect that you chose a profession that is so important and agreeable pays to little, but in all honesty how can you go out on that limb without any past actions on Stitt’s part?
You’re not an endentured servant, if it’s that bad and you are so positive that’s what’s going to happen get out now, or move someplace where you don’t feel like you’re in the wilderness.
You’re whole anti-R screed is tiresome as well and there were consequences for many of those that voted against the pay raise by the way. Your political party affiliation is no indicator of your usefulness, or lack of usefulness as a politician. The willingness for each sides to work together as well as the teachers (their biggest problem being union leadership, or really lack thereof) to make necessary changes hasn’t been fully committed too and there is a ton of blame to go around.
Schools will never go to 3 day a week or 2 days a week....that’s just a stir up the masses hyperbole that gets a serious discussion sidetracked 100% of the time.
Republicans hold a majority in Oklahoma still...your excuses ring hollow. Time for Republicans to fix it, but I’m sure the excuses will continue lol...they always do...
