We want Shakedown Shumer to keep talking...boost the McCain/Palin ticket...go Chuck go!!!
Think maybe somebody is working up some indictments over at DOJ (quietly, secretly, to be sprung on Obama’s people at a propitious moment)?
Because first you go after people who are currently in charge, you can’t go after people who are no longer there without some investigation.
Unfortunately, it fits McCain’s history of attacking Republicans while letting Dems skate. Not very bright.
At this point I’d attack everyone who’s culpable.
This is why we need term limits. Too many crooks who’s been there for too long.
Larry, do you really have to ask? If their names pop up in the LSM, the gig is up for the whole Bush crashed the financial system rag and they have to cop to being just about personally liable for costing America about 100 billion before personal gains. I suspect they’re going to be loath to do this. But your implied point, if I take it correctly, is also correct: so why is Fox playing along? Maybe they’re waiting for Hannity to mention it? I am just about dead-sure O’Reilly will not, until it is mentioned elsewhere in what he decides is the reliable media. I’m in WnL mode for another 15 minutes, but has Hannity mentioned it on his radio show yet? I know Rush hammered it.
How interesting, MAD policy applied to election revelations. I guess it would amount to a game of chicken and one question we might mull over is whether this plays better as the first strike or the first response.
I think you’ve nailed it.
Yeah, I know, but I would have thought McCain had learned from Bush that you CANNOT let this stuff go unanswered, and you have to name names.
He did, he did!! named names in his largest voice and got a tremendous response. My point is that the media studiously refuse to replay the footage and I can’t figure why Fox isn’t going for the scoop.
Yeah, I just love selective enforcement too. Notice that they only care about the financials, and only in the last few months.
Where was Cox before this ?
“STAND UP, CHUCK !!”
Senator McCain..take the gloves off and expose each and every corrupt Democrat. To quote your line, sir, let us "know his name and make him famous".
He goes after Chris Cox, an honorable man and a long time star in the Republican ranks. Who serves on his election committee.
McCain could have cited Barney Frank or Chris Dodd or Obama or ten dozen other rotten current or former officials. But noo, he wants to look “bipartisan” so he personally attacks a good man from his own party and throws Chris Cox under the bus. Who he could not “fire” even if he was the President.
Nice shooting, ace.
I sure as hell hope you do better when we elect you.
“I want to hear out loud, every day, how the libtards are the ones that created the subprime mess, stymied ever effort to correct and then recieved boatloads of cash from the executives of these sham companies.”
Oh yeah, and they even gave us the wonderful bastions of corrution: Fannie and Freddie! They fail.
Yep, it’s Sarah who is channeling Reagan—definitely not John!
Hint for the McCain campaign: Don’t let him utter a word on the economy unless it passes the WWLKS ?(What would Larry Kudlow say?) test.

If it were up to me, however, I tend to agree with McCain, and I fire the whole lot of them, starting with Bernake and Paulson, and moving my way on down the line. The government needs start working for the people, not focusing on the next creative way to save banks from poor management.
Because he has to separate himself as much as possible from the pubbie representatives and senators—and Bush. I am sure he was not who the RNC wanted carrying the pubbie standard. He’s poked too many republicans in the eye—including Bush. One reason, besides choosing Palin as running mate, he is doing well is that he has staked out his maverick position. Oh, and by the way—pubbies are up to their eyeballs in this financial debacle, too. McCain was warning about this in 2002. No body wanted to hear it.
And he should be calling for voters to eject all incumbents from their nice cushy offices.
