A most interesting read, because it was in the 90s that the Republicans (most notably McCain with 4 others of his bodies) caused the real estate market to almost completely collaps. One would really think they'd learn from a mistake.
What does that link have to do with Obama having foot in mouth disease?? like in introducing Biden as next president.....

However McCain was cleared of wrong doing in the Keating 5 scandal.... that does not make him not guilty of the deed as all evidence pointed to his guilt and partaking. He is open to lobbyists.
I believe that lobbying will be a sore point between Obama and Biden. These people have two different views on the matter.
Need I remind you of OJ, President Nixon just to name a couple, our whitewater friends.
If the evidence pointed towards his guilt he would have been convicted. Lobbyist? Are you saying Obama doesn't chat with them? He hasn't been in the senate long enough for them to notice he was even there. How many days did he actually show up for work? Not many. Too busy asking for change.
You voted democrat. This country is not worth sneaking into any more.

You will have to ask Kollerkot, but I believe Obama claims he will end lobbying as we now know it. I find that interesting, because Biden's son had heavy hitter involvement in lobbying. Snagged Daddy in at some point I believe. You dont think joe survived on that pauper salary now do you? Hair plugs and cosmetic surgery and teeth whitening do not come cheap you know
See, hypocrites. Nothing about the Dems is real, not even their hair or faces. At least McCains hair is real.
Lobbying has been debated and brought forth as a caimpaign issue time and time again. This is another spin of change. Nothing would though. Even if McCain were to promise an adjustment in lobbying (tired of the change word) I wouldn't buy it.
Koller, he was reprimanded for having anything to do with them. If he were guilty of anything he would have been hung out to dry. Especially being a Republican. Unlike dems who seem to get a free pass.

"George Bush has put the middle class in a hole," he said, "and John McCain has a plan to keep digging that hole with George Bush's shovel." Noting that Bush inherited a budget surplus that turned into a deficit, he said: "Mr. President, we will be forever in your debt. ... You would think the one thing President Bush was good at was inheriting things."
Lets do some more history, shall we? Who started vietnam? It was a democrat. Who ended it? A Republican. History is often a very good indicator of future events. BTW, the congress is who authorizes the military budget.

Now, we do know the congress is who decides and puts together the spending plan for the country? Yes, yes kiddies, that is how it works.
To say that bush caused the debt increase is tad misguided and well... just plain wrong.
Typical liberal spin. They only point fingers because they can't lift one.
Congress only reached democratic majority in November 2006 (that's only 2 yrs. ago). That was when the public threw them out, because then it was dubbed a "DO NO GOOD CONGRESS" with Bush at the helm. The country had moved almost totally into the right corner. Bush was called King George and the government was very often compared to a monarchy.
Please don't get me wrong, I actually like it more balanced. The fact that when Obama is elected President, that is not really the ideal position either, because now the country will be thrown to far to the left. However, it is the people that determine who is ruling and that they have gotten fed up with the congress, is the republicans fault.

Sure with Mr Pres. orders!
There ya go!... Now, when are the Repubs gonna END Iraq war?????
Olala, they don't follow his orders. They just agree.
Koller, the congress reached that majority and look what happened. Up until then it was getting worse with the more seats they had. In 06 when they crossed the magic number the economy went to krap. If you own property didn't it plummet in 06? What a funny coincidence. The more dems in congress the worse the economy.

McCain was not going to be outdone by Barack Obama's endorsement by THE BOSS , Bruce springsteen, so he did one better .. He got endorsed by artist known as THE BIG BOSS, Daddy Yankee
McCain Pumps the Gasolina
For the crack "campaign-song" team at McCain campaign headquarters, the search is over. After after months and months of trying not only to secure a campaign song but to simply be allowed to play something other than Lawrence Welk at campaign rallies, John McCain finally got props from a pop superstar.
Yesterday, according to Atlantic Monthly writer Marc Ambinder's convention blog, the Arizona senator received the endorsement of the current reggaetón sensation--a kind of Spanish rap with dancehall rhythms--whose hit "Gasolina" is throbbing woofers in a way not seen since, well, last Wednesday.
At a campaign rally on Monday, the presumed Republican nominee for President welcomed the endorsement. "I brought a special friend along with me today, a great American success story," he said, with Mr. Yankee at his side. "One of his most famous songs, I know you're very familiar with, 'Gasolina.' Well, here he is, Daddy Yankee."
But McCain shouldn't launch into the cabbage patch just yet. It turns out Daddy Yankee's song ain't about the current energy crisis. "Gasolina," apparently, is slang for something entirely different. Also, according to Mr. Ambinder, Mr. Yankee was shot in the leg last year after allegedly assaulting a soccer player.
What is McCain and his camp thinking? Desperation or what... High School?, Reggaeton(aka *** drugs alchohol),Unbelievable and McCain is supposedely promoting family value campaign
How embarrassing, Daddy Yankee doesnt even acknowledge McCain with a handshake when he appears.
This is the scary thing about McCain not knowing how to use the internet and only knowing one language and having to rely on advisors. These advisors are scary and will be the same type of advisors if he gets in office. This type of judgement should scare you big time because McCain has no McClue
And do you also realize that US troops are still stationed in Germany, Japan, and Korea after those conflicts have ended. Ergo, why did the Presendets then not withdraw the troops then?
