In December 2007, McCain similarly said: "The issue of economics is not something I've understood as well as I should.” In December 2007 McCain again made a similar statement, while also saying that he'd like to appoint a vice presidential running mate who is "intimately familiar" with economics, and that’s Sarah Palin? Is this the financial genius he was talking about? In The Chicago Tribune Interview 12/07: McCain said, "The issue of economics is something that I've really never understood as well as I should. I understand the basics, the fundamentals, the vision, all that kind of stuff,'' he said. "But I would like to have someone I'm close to that really is a good strong economist. As long as Alan Greenspan is around I would certainly use him for advice and counsel..."I've never been involved in Wall Street, I've never been involved in the financial stuff, the financial workings of the country, so I'd like to have somebody intimately familiar with it," he said of a potential vice presidential candidate, that’s why he chose Sarah Palin? GOD HELP US ALL!!!!! Don’t you worry, John McCain has a plan.

You'll be hard-pressed to find any leaders, blue or red, that won't throw gas on the fire. This bailout bill is the greatest crime of this century thus far and it's being pushed on us like a used car. Buy in the next fifteen minutes or the deal's off! If Democrats who are thoroughly bribed like Chuck Schumer get their way, we will finance the exodus of our own banking industry and be forced to throw millions of homeowners out of homes to collect even 25% of the book value, but there won't be any tax base left. If Republicans get their way, we'll repeal some taxes and have yet another massive bubble to burst and yet more federal debt to pay skyrocketing interest on. Like Will Rogers once said, "This country has come to feel the same when Congress is in session as when the baby gets hold of a hammer." Regardless of what happens this week, we can anticipate that Congress will lay the loopholes and deregulation needed to set up the next big Wall Street scam. If the bailout passes, the banks will disinvest in America, choosing commodities and foreign currency instead. Who gives a damn what color the proponents are?
