After a nearly two-year investigation, the committee exonerated McCain and Democratic senator John Glenn, who, it just so happens, spoke at an Obama rally yesterday.
McCain Member of the Keating Five Votes with Bush 90% of the time Sings about bombing Iran Wants to cut Medicare Supported Deregulation Palin said "There is a place reserved in HELL for Women who don't support other Women." "Suspended" his campaign, but continued to run attack ads Cheated on his first wife Wants to keep troops in Iraq for 100 years "Fundamentals of our Economy are Strong." The same day banks began to fail 72 years old and picked Palin Wants to overturn Roe V. Wade
McCain is a old senile crook.He has the nerve to try and tie Obama with the terroist that bomb that building when Obama was 8 years old. Dont throw stones ShitCane when you live in a glass house youself.
nice, the other 4 guys were democrates and John McCain wasnt charged with anything after the investigation, they said he broke no laws and did nothing wrong. finish the story pal.
Can someone answer this for me - was John McCain involved with the Keating 5 or was he an actual member of the Keating 5 ? Or is there some middle area?
"After a lengthy investigation, the Senate Ethics Committee determined in 1991 that , Alan Cranston (D-CA), Dennis DeConcini (D-AZ), and Donald W. Riegle (D-MI),had substantially and improperly interfered with the FHLBB in its investigation of Lincoln Savings. Senators John Glenn (D-OH), and John McCain (R-AZ) were cleared of having acted improperly but were criticized for having exercised "poor judgment"."
McCain and his family made at least 9 trips at Keating's expense, three of which were to Keating's Bahamas retreat. McCain did not disclose the trips as required to under House rules until the scandal broke in 1989. At that point, he paid Keating $13,433 for the flights.
Wrong, I used to work for the agency FHLB which later become OTS. Yes, it is true, Keating had 5 Senators, McCain, Gleen, DeConcini, Cranston and Reigle to come to get the Regulars off his back. McCain started the meeting with the Examiner In Charge (EIC) by saying that he was representing his constituent. McCain's campaign had received over $110,000from Keating.
Wow! I could listen to McCain for hours, he is such a great articulater, oritor, well just a damn great speaker. I can't wait to rush home from work to here the State of the Union address. JK What ever happen to the guy who was able to pick-up his first model wife, who by the way was disfigured in an accident, and his second model wife who he picked-up while still married to? you guessed it wife number one. I couldn't make this stuff up if I wanted to, I'm just not that creative.
Amen...Solider I wanted Ron as well but corporate suppression and a dumbed down constituency has led us to where we are today. I'm stuck voting for the lesser of evils again.... Sad
I wish people would stop voting for McCain. He would destroy our country instead of fixing it. I'm voting for Ron Paul and if McCain is nominated I'm voting for a democrat.
John McCain, representing Arizona, isn't qualified to 'run' for president of the United States, because he was born in Panama, Central America, therefore McCain isn't a 'natural born citizen of the United States'; neither was his predecessor Barry Goldwater, coincidently represented Arizona, because Goldwater was born in Arizona before it was admitted to the 'Union'; The Mormons, since 1830, want to combine Arizona, and Utah into 1 state, a theocracy named 'Deseret'.
Ron Paul for US President 2012!

McCain was indeed an actual member of the Keating 5.
McCain was also the one who was personally closest to Keating. And his wife and her father were very close to Keating.
