McCain: "Clean Government" More Important Than 1st Amendment [video]

Transcribed:

McCain: "He also mentioned about my abridgment of First Amendment Rights, i.e., talking about Campaign Finance Reform. My response to that criticism is I work in Washington and I know that money corrupts and I and a lot of other people were trying to stop that corruption and obviously from what we’ve been seeing lately we didn’t complete the job. But...I would rather have a clean government than one whose quote First Amendment Rights are being respected that has become corrupt....if I had my choice I would rather have a clean government......[chuckle]"

Bill of Rights * Amendment I

Congress shall make no law respecting
an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or
abridging the freedom of speech, or
of the press; or
the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the government for a redress of grievances.

Thanks for 'The Real McCain' link. Bookmarked.

Maybe some FReepers need a refresher course on just who mcpain really is. They need to read your link before they start shoving him down our throats.

From Eagle Forum, July 2006:

Guest Workers Aren't Cheap; They're Expensive

We are indebted to the Heritage Foundation for its stunning report proving that the Kennedy-McCain bill passed by the Senate is a stealth open borders bill that will import 66 million people into our country permanently and put them on the path to citizenship.

In the words of the author of the Heritage report, Robert Rector, this is "the most monumental bill ever considered" and its mindboggling costs would be the largest-ever expansion of taxpayer-paid social benefits. American citizens will be forced to pay staggering entitlement costs.
