'McCain said "we must stop the damage to our economy done by corrupt and incompetent practices on Wall Street and in Washington."'
Thanks for the laugh, then why did you sign the bill then?
Btw, Sen. McCain, it's a 'tourniquet' around the taxpayers neck.

Hey, he added ‘and Washington’, so we’re getting somewhere at least. Yesterday it was all Wall Street’s fault.

This needs repeating, thank you.

"The action Congress took today is a tourniquet, not a permanent solution," McCain said in a statement. "Our economy is still hurting and further action is needed..." Juan's solution is probably going to involve bailout after bailout after bailout.
Juan promised publicly last month to protect taxpayers from additional bailouts. Then, he flip-flopped.

It’s a noose and Nancy Pelousy has an impatient hand on the drop lever.

I hope I’m not wrong, but I predict he will join Obama with suggesting a second stimulus package.

He’ll apply the same pressure to House Reps to get an amnesty.

McCain said "we must stop the damage to our economy done by corrupt and incompetent practices...in Washington." Pray tell, Sen McCain. What practices? By whom?

McCain SHOULD have led the fight to reject this bloated Christmas tree and massive swindle...
He didn't - and he probably lost his last chance to get elected.....
Palin is NOT enough to save the stupid bastard now.
The market's reponse today, by FALLING on the news of the swindle — indicates that more time to prepare a more rational approach should have been taken.
Barney Frank should publicly acknowledge his PERSONAL responsibility and RESIGN from his chairmanship of the House Financial Services.
He FAILED in his fiduciary responsibilities and public trust...
ANY Republican who signed this monstrosity without a commitment that Barney Frank and his allies would admit PERSONAL responsibility and resign their positions -— simply played “the game” with the thieves..
A POX on ALL their asses.
I believe with the help of the Congressional Black Caucus — they found a way to pay reparations......

Finally.
The truth.
Even from an elected official.
Too bad it doesn't mean Dodd, Frank, Pelosi, Franklin Raines,
and all the rest aren't in jail where they belong!!!!!!!

"McCain: Bailout a 'tourniquet' No you phony bastard - it's a stinking dead Albatross around YOUR neck....
McCain's vote without a mention or fight against the added earmarks to buy the needed votes --- was very revealing...
I think McCain just handed the White House to a racist and corrupt Black Marxist.
That will lead to a crisis which will make this swindle look like child's play.
