``The punchline is this: banks always donate some stock of homes as a matter of routine. It is meant to generate positive headlines like the one NPR gave them yesterday. If BofA didn't have a settlement obligation to fulfill, they would still donate homes.

But BofA has managed to figure out how they can kill two of their settlement birds with one stone.''
