What a lying hypocrite, he made a big show of voting for TARP, the biggest pork barrel bill in the history of the country.
A couple of years back I was watching C-Span and McCain was on the Seanate floor bloviating about a bill I do not recall what the bll was but he was going on and on how the bill had pork in it and he just kept saying the bill was bad but in the end he said he would vote for it I was shocked and thought out loud what a jerk he was-if you are against it you are against it period end of story and vote NO. He talks out of both sides of his mouth just like the rest of the polliticians
Earmarks are Juan McPain’s cause celebre. They are completely insignificant compared to everything else happening in government. We are $1600 billion in the red this year alone! What’s $1 billion here or there?
A senator can’t vote to spend trillions on unconstitutional programs then cut a few earmarks and (honestly) claim to be a champion of small government. Shame on Arizona if he fools enough people to reelect him (again).
And people shouldn’t buy McPain’s “secure the border first” crap. First, who gets to decide the border is secure? Our pathetic leaders in DC? Secondly, McPain can’t wait to cram down amnesty as soon as the border’s “secure.” Yeah, paying a fine and “going to the back of the line” is AMNESTY if the illegals aren’t deported.
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/amnesty
am·nes·ty:
1. a general pardon for offenses, esp. political offenses, against a government, often granted before any trial or conviction.
2. Law. an act of forgiveness for past offenses, esp. to a class of persons as a whole.
3. a forgetting or overlooking of any past offense.
If the penalty (deportation) for breaking existing law is forgiven, it’s an AMNESTY.
Such a phony and his earmarks he will never spill the beans he is nothing but a big tease....
Oh, c'mon AZ, flush the John!
The purpose of the Tea Party is to purge the likes of McCain.
McCain briefly re-discovers his conservative roots....every 6 years for about 6 or 8 months.
