Immigration and McCain:
Rabskuttle385 offers links for each of these here:

22 Sep. 2008: “In Scranton, Pa., he vowed to push through a plan that offers a path to citizenship to illegal immigrants who pay fines and fulfill other requirements.” (The Boston Globe)
[Those “conservatives” on FR who say that McCain would have been better than Obama seem to conveniently forget that with McCain as President, the Republican establishment would not oppose his amnesty proposals. Shoot, even with Obama as President, certain segments of the Republican establishment still believe that granting amnesty to tens of millions of illegal aliens is the way to gain new votes!]
06 Jan. 2010: “McCain has said he won’t support the 2010 legislation if it doesn’t include the guest-worker plan, a cornerstone of previous bipartisan compromises.” (The Arizona Republic)]
[Note that Graham-Schumer DOES include the “guest worker” provision.]
17 Feb. 2010: “[McCain] still believes in immigration reform, but it has to include tighter border security up front.” (The Arizona Daily Sun)
20 Feb. 2010: “McCain stressed the importance of securing the border and establishing a legal temporary-worker program. Foreign workers could take jobs that Americans wouldn’t want.” (The Arizona Daily Star)
Shall I find more examples?
“[Obama] talks about immigration reform.
I want to see his proposal!
He’s the president of the United States.
I’d like to see a proposal from
the president of the United States
and I’d like to review.”
U.S. SEN. JOHN MCCAIN, 16 MAR. 2010

I realize that we have a lot of healthcare protesting to do. But I made a commitment to your weekly ping, and something came up:
McCain will host a town hall meeting from 3 to 4 p.m. Saturday at the Oakwood Ballroom (24218 S. Oakwood Blvd.) at Iron Oaks Country Club in Sun Lakes.

Is anyone going to ask John McCain to return the $230,000 he got from Goldman Sachs? There have been demands for the democrats to do so.
This table lists the top donors to this candidate in the 2008 election cycle.
John McCain Merrill Lynch $373,595
Citigroup Inc $322,051
Morgan Stanley $273,452
Goldman Sachs $230,095 [snip]
Greenberg Traurig LLP $146,437 (Abramoff’s firm...OH, the irony)[snip]

McCAin voted and pushed TARP.
TARP bailed out Goldman, and McCain’s top donors.
Goldman uses HB1 visas....
McCain got more $$ than any republican.
McCain is a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
[snip]But there are at least some new supporters of the campaign. B. C. Clippard, who was national finance chairman of Fred D. Thompson’s presidential campaign, has now raised $100,000 or more for Mr. McCain. Former Senator Alfonse M. D’Amato of New York also supported Mr. Thompson but recently helped organize a fund-raiser in New York that netted over $1 million for Mr. McCain. Peter Newman, a former fund-raiser for Mr. Giuliani from Pebble Beach, Calif., has since become a Trailblazer for Mr. McCain. The list also includes something of a who’s who of his national finance team, including Tom Loeffler, a former congressman, and Lewis Eisenberg, a former Goldman Sachs partner and longtime player in Republican fund-raising.
http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/21/us/politics/21bundlers.html
[snip] Over the last year, John McCain supported everything that the grass-roots Tea Party movement has stood against:
*The $700 billion all-purpose, earmark-stuffed TARP bailout;
*The $25 billion auto bailout;
*The $300 billion mortgage entitlement bailout; and *The first $85 billion AIG bailout.
When push came to shove, McCain and his economic advisers (including his hand-picked California GOP Senate candidate, Carly Fiorina) caved to the Chicken Little chaos in Washington every time and joined hands with Barack Obama.
Reasonable people may not assert that John McCain is an unsurpassed paragon of “fiscal responsibility.”
