I gave it to Drudge. He has been putting a lot of this stuff on his web site.
Let me get this straight..............
The NYT’s publishes a preemptive article about Ayres. IOW, they fire the first shot. (On a national level)
The question was “I wonder why?”
MAybe the answer is to give Obama prior justification to bring up the Keating Five.
I would be willing to bet this was planned.
Housing scandals...he really wants to go there?
I’ve got somebody on my blog trying to pull G. Gordon Liddy into this.
I hope Obama does this. This should make McCain go at Obama even harder.
I hope you are correct. Keating is a non issue anyway. That has been public knowledge for years, and McCain has been properly vetted throughout is public life. Obama on the other hand? Nope. The public knows very little of what this man really thinks, and who is really is.
But Freddie Mac & Fannie Mae were regulated, albeit by corrupt democrats.
John McCain MUST mention ACORN an the Presidential debate Tuesday night.
would someone mind giving me a quick dumbed down version of the keating 5 deal? I have done no research yet...need a little info before it hits tomorrow
He had better be worrying more about the show I saw tonight on Hannitys America!! Ive got a feeling it will rerun many times, and more and more people will be tuned in! I promise you, the people who watched it wont be quiet!!!
So, being attached to a scandal is bad? Obama? Huh?
After what’s going to come down tomorrow about Ayers and Dorhn’s relationship with Michelle and the Keating 5 and the nutty stuff about McCain and Asian women I doubt they even shake hands Tuesday. This has the promise to be the most acrimonious month since TR and Wilson in 1912 or J Q Adams and Jackson or may be all the way back to John Adams and Jefferson in 1800. You may not even see the GOP show up on 1/20 if Obama wins.
Because he's insecure, inexperienced, and has never faced a general election that was anything less than a cakewalk.
Right. If the Obama campaign was as confident in their position at this point as the various talking heads are then they’d just laugh it off and focus on their message of the week.
The Keating Five is old, old news, and at the end of the day, McCain was found not to have done anything wrong.
Meanwhile, associating with a known and unrepentant terrorist over a decade, working closely with him on the board of a foundation, and using his support to launch your political career speaks to one’s judgement. It also, IMO, speaks to one’s patriotism, or lack thereof. Keating Five is about old inside Washington baseball. Ayers is about who exactly Obama is and what his core beliefs might be.
McCain’s experience with Keating Five made him vigilant about campaign finance and ethics in general and led to McCain-Feingold. Obama’s really done nothing with Ayers other than trying to downplay the relationship and then the tepid ‘throw under the bus’ routine.
Keating Five is really a weak response as the question the Ayers relationship raises is about whether or not Obama really cares about this country as he says he does or whether he harbors the kind of feelings towards this country that Ayers does.
It also makes Obama appear desperate to change the subject. If Ayers isn’t that important, why are you so ready to go nuclear (as if Keating 5 is so) at the mere mention of your relationship with him? Methinks someone protests too much.
Michelle must be pissed. (Remembering someone mentioned that he does not make a move without consulting her, LOL!)
Have I missed something specific or are you giving a heads up?
It is about to get very nasty and this is good because McCain wins in a mud fest.
Yes, all freepers need to know McCain was EXONERATED after an investigation
EXONERATED
