Thank Bush for listening to that idiot Paulson, and thank McCain and the GOP leadership for voting to socialize the economy.

“Thank Bush for listening to that idiot Paulson, and thank McCain and the GOP leadership for voting to socialize the economy.”

you are right, of course, but they were not alone. The Dems were with Paulson from the planning stage on. Bush bought it from them, as many on our side did, as the only possible scenario that could possibly work.

His second term advisers have not been kind to the President at all!

It is clear now that Bush got rolled. McCain, however— what bad amendments did he support?

The best a minority party which is weak in all three branches in an issue can do is to haggle. Grandstanding in stubborn opposition to the inevitable does not help remove flaws from bad legislation.

On the other hand, if you clearly know what amendments McCain pushed for that were wrong, I’m interested to know.
