I like John McCain. I like his honesty.
No, really, stop laughing.
John McCain is an honest guy - for a Republican.
Every once in a while, some great truth will utter from his mouth.
WARREN: Everybody talks about, you know, taxing the rich, but not the poor, the middle class. At what point, give me a number, give me a specific number. Where do you move from middle class to rich? [...]
MCCAIN: How about $5 million?
He then backpedals. But the truth slipped out. That's honest for a Republican.
You know what they say: "In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king."
Hence, McCain is a maverick Republican.
So what does this truth tell us?
If 5 million is the divide between rich and middle class, what is the divide between middle class and poor?
1 million, perhaps?
And we all know what Republicans think of the poor.
The fact is to the Republican leadership, we are nearly all the poor unwashed masses, sucking on the government teat.
Thanks for the honesty, John. It's refreshing.
