Don’t believe a word of it.
If you do, I have the Panama Canal I can sell you.
Dude, this isn't about McCain. He lost the election 3 months ago. This is about today, the future of our country and a philosophy that says you don't bankrupt a country with trillion dollar pork bills.
As I said, the more you divert the attention away from the above McCain quote with your thumb-sucking, cry baby type posts, the more that message gets covered up.
Maybe you're right.
No normal person could miss my point.
I think this guy may just be stupid.
Praise them when they do the right thing and hit them hard when they waiver.
Have to admit when I heard him say this Friday night on the floor of the Senate, I was shocked. He also said this will affect the way the Republicans view other legislation that the President wants. Amazing when I heard it and still amazing.
“Had McCain opposed the bailout, he would be President today.”
It was his biggest and costliest mistake.
Hey, I didn't vote for the jackass who publicly made a fool out of himself suspending his campaign so he could go and vote for the Socialist TARP bailout.
And yes, folks, TARP is a bailout. Real rates of inflation (not the doctored Government statistics) are in the 8-10 percent range, so after inflation, the Government (in other words, all of us taxpayers) are getting screwed.
That cinches it.
McCain voted for Obama. You just know he did.
“and that change meant we work together.”
Surely he can’t be that naive.
Isn’t it time to ditch your anti-McCain posts on every thread? They’ve become more than a little tiresome. The election is over; McCain lost. Now, we can discuss the present.
No he's not.
If you can't spot irony then perhaps the naivite is on your side.
I voted for him, because not and allowing Obuma in was just stupid, but perhaps it’s better that Obuma won. It may just be the catalyst needed to return America back to greatness. I’ll refer to something CS Lewis said and apply it to politics. Something along the lines of “God whispers to us in our pleasures and shouts at us in our pain.” I definitely hear the shouting, do you?
I think his only regret is that his bill isn't going to be part of the package. He doesn't care what is in any bill. What he wants is his name to get a little bit of that neon light treatment.
Not until he leaves office.
Screw McCain. He can shut up and sit down (on his porch, at home, in his comfy rocker, farting quietly into his diapers). There are other, more qualified voices we prefer to hear... DeMint springs easily to mind...
McCain's is always and invariably the voice of the traitor- sooner or later, the other shoe is bound to fall.
Um...that is his regret.
He even said so.
""They will come up with a bill. But, unfortunately, Republicans will not be involved in the negotiations. And I -- and I regret that." John McCain

Dude, what part of the following that I posted to you don't you understand....
Here's the McCain quote again... "Were going to amass the largest debt in the history of this country by any measurement, and were going to ask our kids and grandkids to pay for it,
But it's okay to bankrupt the U.S. with half-a-trillion dollar pork bills, like McCain's pathetic attempt at an alternative?
McCain is a grand-standing, hypocritical POS of a politician who is smart enough to feel which way the political wind is blowing, and he wants to save himself from utter defeat in 2010.
What is really funny, in a bitterly ironic way, is that he is dodging a bullet by not getting in on this boondoggle in spite of himself.
