John McCain
Well i never had Chuck Schumer, down as psychic, but his thought, that McCain's campaign had peaked, was well and truly on the money last sunday.
On the other end of the prediction scale, Lindsay Graham assertion, that the Obama, was facing the a MELTDOWN, is a dollar and day late.
McCain is now is telling us, he spoke out two years ago, about and Fannie and Fred, but then again, he has got himself confused, about the review he did of Sesame Street characters.
If McCain was really serious about Financial reform, twenty four months ago, he must remember that their was a Republician, in the White House, Bill Frist was Senate Majority Leader, and that Denny Hastert was Speaker. I know he is promising to shake things up in Washington, but why now all of a sudden?
It would also seem, people are bring back, the Enron practice of off balance sheet trading. Paulson is now going to transfer the bad loans of Wall Street off their balance sheet, and on to the Balance Sheet of the American Taxpayers.
Every since the Sub prime scandal surfaced, Conservatives having been looking for a excuse to move a whole lot of bad debt onto the Ferderal Government. To me, it is blackmail, that you have to bail out the Finance Sector, otherwise, it will bring down, the main Street economy.
When a school or steelwork fails, people havent got a problem shutting them down asap, but when it a bank or financial company, the Taxpayer is lumbered with the debt.
Do you think McCain is angling to get his son the job, as head of the SEC?
I know McCain junior has experience of overseeing a bank that failed, but is he ready to bring the entire Nation's financial system down, just yet?
On a different note, Senator Inhofe, who has smeared Andrew Rice by alleging that Rice is gay, will be attending the Marriage Ceremony of Charlie Crist? If conservatives had any sense, they would hold Crist and Bristol Palin marriages, in the same venue, that way, both families can cut down on costs.
Do I also take it that Lindsay Graham and David Dreier, are both old style " Confirmed Bachelors " ?
