The final battle of the presidential race has begun...McCain vs Schumer...

[Edgerunner]

Schumer is a joke

[BelegStrongbow]

This is a sleeve job that Fox is, for reasons I can’t fathom, playing into. McCain ALSO indicted Obama for being the second-largest recipient of special interest money from Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac and named Obama’s advisors who actually ran the two agencies into the ground, getting away with millions. When is anyone in the ‘mainstream press’ going to publish THAT???

BTW, Rush mentioned this emphatically in hour two.

[gimme1ibertee]

You mean....IndyMac Schumer?
He needs to STHU!!

[silverleaf]

Phil Gramm might be excellent on the SEC.

and as for Schumer “Sit down, Chuck”

[andy58-in-nh]

Schumer runs for the cameras? Harry Reid says something bitterly partisan? We've all seen this movie before, haven't we? "Me, Myself, and I." Democrats and their political needs always come first. But what about the national interest? Please. These are the same Democrats who told the troops the war was lost when they were still fighting door-to-door against al Qaeda in Iraq.

I've had my differences with Senator McCain - a lot of them, actually - but I never have to doubt that when he says "Country First", he really means it.

[Always Right]

McCain should say: We need to subpoena those responsible for this financial crisis. Unfortunately they are all currently busy working on the Obama campaign.

[muleskinner]

Chris Cox was a top notch congressman from Southern California. If Cox allowed these changes to go thru, hmmm. I’d like to hear his side of the story.

[chris_bdba]

And Sen Schumer, just how many donations did you get from bank X?

[BookmanTheJanitor]

Always good to hear from Harry “no one knows what to do” Reid.

[spacejunkie]

Asking to fire Cox is all well and good I suppose but WHY OH WHY does McCain always slam republicans and never slams dems???

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.

[nicola_tesla]

McCain is full of BS. Naked short selling has been illegal for years. And if they want to catch the naked shorts, then they should tear open the books of the investment banks and hedge funds. There’s a story out today that Lehman is suspicoiusly unable to find some stock certificates. Hmmm, might it just be because...they never had them ?

I’ll see if I can find the link.

This is why neither presidential candidate is a solution. Neither one has a clue.

Besides if you ban the shorts who have borrowed shares, then you get what Shanghai has - 71% down so far this year. No bid.

[paul51]

Our fine senate at work. Do the public a service and resign.

[montag813]

Is McCain going to take this? Or is he going to call for Senate hearings over Schumer's role in the collapse of IndyMac Bank? California's attorney General is investigating that very thing as we speak. I am amazed at the chutzpah of Schumer to slam McCain given his IndyMac actions.

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".

[silverleaf]

McCain has a target rich environment in all the perps of fraud and greed here .and what does he do?

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.
