I Was Misled

[RockyTopVol]

Is he serious?

McCain: I was misled on bailout

 

[volinbham]

Not the best way to present his case.

In the end, anyone that voted for TARP can only blame themselves - in a sense they were misled because the original mechanism was not ultimately what was done. However, they voted to give Paulson and Co. an unrestricted check for $700 billion.

He be better off saying what he thought TARP should have done instead of saying he was misled.

I sure hope the people of Arizona wake up, and vote for JD, McCain is dem light. We need to make sure these RINOs are voted out along with the liberals.

paulsen's book basically said mccain was the least savy politician he met when it came to the buyout and the financial system. well below palin btw.

There is a reason McCain graduated at the bottom of his Naval Academy class and a reason he needed powerful dad to keep him employed thereafter.

It worked for the Dems and Iraq...just saying.

I'm not sure Hayworth is a better option but McCain definitely provided a softball for him to use.

McCain: I was misled on bailout

it's a technique we in the biz like to call "trying to cover his own ass"

It really doesn't say much for the Republican Party that McCain was the best they could offer up in '08.

well whoever was running had to run at the tail end of the really unpopular Bush

kinda funny actually, I never saw a party candidate try to distance himself from the party's current prez like i had w/ McCain and Bush

Bush or no Bush, McCain ran such an ineffectual campaign that I don't think he ever could have won.

Charlie (your avatar) would have done better

Charlie would have won in a landslide. His genius could solve the national "cat-in-the-wall" problem.


By the way, have you seen the It's Always Sunny Christmas Special?

Nope. Did it air or is it DVD only?

It's on DVD only. It gives you a pretty good idea of how much more offensive the show would be if it were on HBO or Showtime instead of on cable.
