    Re: The Real McCain

    I am trying to understand the message: Is it that McCain is bad because he has money and that people who take out 15% mortgages should hate him and vote for Obama? Is it that McCain went around focing people to borrow above their means and made fixed rate mortgages illegal? I don't get it.........

    McCain and i'd argue a vast swathe of politicians in the States have severed their representative function from the masses. The whole electoral charade is just a sideshow. When they get into office the vast amount of policy is tabled for big-business and even drafted by corporate lobbies. Crony capitalism is endemic in the system. Wages have been stagnant in the US for years and the middle class is steadily shrinking, yet corporations are still doing remarkably well- especially the much lauded homeland security sector, where many conservatives have shadowy connections. A 1929 bust is a reality unless some serious reform plan is put in place.

    People being squeezed by an unjust system and when it all comes tumbling down they wont have to look very far, unless of course the Neo-cons can perpetuate the 'war footing' and the unquestioning patriotism required therein.

    It a case and has been tried and tested for years blame everything on the crims, the terrorists, the Russians, and drug epidemics, in fact they blame everyone but themselves and their self enriching policies.

    Re: The Real McCain

    American conservative commentator Pat Buchanan mounts a spirited attack on McCain's links to lobbyists in this article.

    http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=28157

    An individual by the name of Scheunemann, a senior McCain operative and one likely to be rewarded with an important post in a McCain administration, was paid by the government of Georgia to lobby the USA to go to war on behalf of that country.

    As Pat says "he came close to succeeding. Had he done so, U.S. soldiers and Marines from Idaho and West Virginia would be killing Russians in the Caucasus, and dying to protect Scheunemann's client, who launched this idiotic war the night of Aug. 7."

    Maith an fear, a Phait!

    Say what you will about Barack Obama, at least he is not ashamed to be seen with his wife, not like McCain. I expect Barrack will stick with Michelle regardless of what the future brings.

    Re: The Real McCain

    His wife was a 5'9" beauty Queen when McCain became a Reverse Ace but when he got back she was 5'4" and 50 pounds heavier. Needless to say she got kicked to the curb fairly fast. But then again Rudy had more wives than even Barrack's old man.

    I bring up this episode because not many people know who paid the medical bills for Mrs McCain. The man who came to her rescue may have something to say this week.
