http://www.ajnews.com/vol14/080910/pdfs/0809_com_AJNW_A... Link is to pdf of local Apache Junction News article regarding home of Pinal County Supervisor Bryan Martyn (R). Home purchased 5 years ago with $598,000 mortgage, Martyn says he's "in a situation shared by millions of Americans": "I can no longer afford my home."
The article doesn't say what has changed in Martyn's circumstances to make the home no longer affordable. He's a retired USAF major, so he's got a halfway decent chunk of change coming in from the military. I don't know what his wife does for a living, if anything. I don't know what, if any, salary he gets as a Pinal County Supervisor.
His website -- www.BryanMartyn.com -- contains link to RNC, other puke links.
Yours truly is livid. This puke asshole, whose claim to fame before being elected was that he collected money to buy schoolbooks (and Bibles) for kids in Afghanistan, is probably walking away from his mortgage because he just doesn't want to have to pay it. What a crock.
I've already written a LTTE; the editor is a bit of a lefty, so we'll see what happens.
The other local newspaper -- the Apache Junction / Gold Canyon Independent -- operates a "forum," where Martyn has posted his "whole" story.
