John Mccain "I'd rather have clean government than the 1st amendment"
RedState ^

Posted on 04/29/2006 8:04:53 PM PDT by SDGOP

"He [Michael Graham] also mentioned my abridgement of First Amendment rights, i.e. talking about campaign finance reform....I know that money corrupts....I would rather have a clean government than one where quote First Amendment rights are being respected, that has become corrupt. If I had my choice, I'd rather have the clean government."

Uh, yeah! Taking one's ability to criticize government officials will clean up government!

I'd like to eat ice cream all day and not expand.

"I'd rather have clean government".....this could only come from a self-important politician. He ought to know there's no such thing as clean government. How can an industry peopled by whores, megalomaniacs, and Kennedys possibly even hope to be clean?

I'd vote for Clinton over McCain, because the GOP will at least block what Clinton does, they lose their spines when one their own is a liberal.

I did, un-freaking-believeable. Thankfully, he just sunk his presidential campaign.

Just how did McCain get that head injury in NV? The VC must've smacked McCain around something awful. He's beyond looney, these days.

Bad sound bite for McCain. One problem with McCain is that he shoots from the hip. That has its plusses and minues, but in a POTUS position, it might not be the best option.

If I had any sharea of McCain on the prediction markets, I'd start selling. He just lost the nomination. That one quote will destroy him.
