This will make McCain, by process of elimination, look like the only honest one running, not tied to any illegal activity of any kind.....Yes, the Keating Five will, again, be overlooked at our expense.

Yes, the Keating Five will, again, be overlooked at our expense.

His friends contributed $56,000 for Senator McCain's two House races in 1982 and 1984, and $54,000 for his 1986 Senate race. Didn't cost us a dime, in fact probably saved us money/airplane trip ;)

Senate Select Committee on Ethics concluded: "The Committee concludes that Senator McCain's actions were not improper nor attended with gross negligence and did not reach the level of requiring institutional action against him. The Committee finds that Senator McCain took no further action after the April 9, 1987 meeting when he learned of a criminal referral. "

"The Committee reaffirms its prior decision that it does not have jurisdiction to determine the issues of disclosure or reimbursement pertaining to flights provided by American Continental Corporation while Senator McCain was a Member of the House of Representatives. The Committee did consider the effect of such on his state of mind and judgment in taking steps to assist Lincoln.

"Senator McCain has violated no law of the United States or specific Rule of the United States Senate; therefore, the Committee concludes that no further action is warranted with respect to Senator McCain on the matters investigated during the preliminary inquiry."

Investigation fini. Clinton/Peter Paul and Obama/Rezko, however present day media illegal fund raising attention more likely to take precedent.
