Can't Get Enough

[Atomsmasher777]

Yeah....Phil was really concerned about low-income people being able to get home loans.

LOL!!!!

He helped the rich bankers scam until they couldn't scam anymore.,

[artyphax]

Republicans push for deregulation so they and their friends can rape and plunder the wealth and wreck our economy. Phil Gramm was the main architect of the financial collapse, and he should be prosecuted and spend the rest of his sorry life in prison.

[flimpkin4]

However crappy Obama turns out to be (and he will), McCain would have been stomach-turning for his complete lack of honesty.

[pennieless]

phil ... you're nothing but a fermented turd-ball. go sneaking in a bill to enrich you're wife at enron, yea i see you have nothing to whine about ya snake turd. people like you are on the bottom of the swamp.

[nep808]

This shows how clueless all this stupid idiots are, same thing for retarded Obama

[gcdcjccc]

real phonies. the two of them

[esiewm]

A Mental Recession?

This rich little faggot has obviously never worked a day in his life, not unlike Bush and his friends.

[dogbongo]

What the hell is "war free"? I guess committing to finally going full into Afghanistan doesn't count as war in your book.

"I don't oppose all wars... What I am opposed to is a dumb war."

I don't blame you for being stupid, bravesfan, that's not your fault.

But being ignorant is. Tighten up, chump.

democrats think that lefties libs liberals. Liberals want big lib commie terrorist bin laden liberal. 9/11 liberal big lib democrat commie code pink lefties.

[mmsml7]

Phil Gramm is 'respected" by the neocons because he supports their ideology of deregulating and privatizing everything. Gramm helped to write the Commodities Modernization Act of 2000 aka the Enron loophole that brought the deregulation of energy derivatives and some financial tools. This very legislation is the KEY behind sky high gas prices and the mortgage crisis. Wow! If you think the past 8 years were bad....

[ChicagoJoe57]

Gramm ought to take the goldfish out of his mouth before he talks. How can anyone understand him?

[jjmcoates]

The main economic problem facing America right now is the rise in gas prices. Obama wants to focus on corn ethanol( bad policy) and solar/wind. He is opposed to nuclear and opposed to drilling for our own oil. McCain's plan includes nuclear,drilling and renewables. Overall though, with our 5.5% unemployment rate we are doing better than Europe, Canada, India, Latin America etc. Graham was right, times arent that bad. On gas prices, Obama says that high gas prices are good, is out to lunch too?

[LordXmen2k]

John McCains wife spends $750k a month shopping, his daughter $50k, no wonder its all "psychological" to them

[wethepeople07041776]

Unbelievable! I'm sure McCain and Gramm aren't losing their homes in foreclosure. Gramm is an arrogant scum bag and McCain is a lying idiot.

[1nd0nes1a]

Wait, wait. Didn't I just hear that Mc Cain said Phil Gramm is a respected leader? What the hell? Mc Cain = Mc can't. Go home Mc Cain! Get some sleep and stay out of politics. You are way TOO OLD for today's politics.

[jimbojim68]

Then Graham says I won't take it back, then lies and says he was talking about political leaders, not the people of America. He lies like McCain denying all those times he said he wasn't that knowledgeable about the economy. Roll the tape, please. Ha, ha.

[atripa645]

constant whining! get this man a plate of bacon and a huge glass of buttermilk

[yonathan]

After this week I think we have all found out that Mccain is unelectable.

[AnonymousBChurch]

Why is Graham "respected" on the economy? Pretty much ALL of his ideas and policies have been a disaster whenever they were tried.

The reason he is called "respected" is because he is a bagman handing out the corporate welfare, and can be depended on to defend the crooks when they get caught.

He's not respected, he's dishonorable.

[justcallmesoso]

yet..imagine Mccain asking Gramm for advice, on what to do about the economy. The gas prices, raising food cost, ppl losing homes, dow jones down big time, weak dollar, national debt etc etc. Imagine then Gramms advice. That is scary as hell.

[justcallmesoso]

lol----i am glad that Gramm is not supporting me

[padude64]

Graham realizes that he is an old bat and is about to check out so see ya Phil! You old bat!

[padude64]

As an American, I am sick of you fucking politicians and your lies! Now, you better and get things straight you assholes!

You politicians can make an alcoholic dead in one day because of your sick ass behavior!

[ChicagoJoe57]

It would help if Gram would get that goldfish out of his mouth while he speaks.

[MidnightChimes]

The Feds just siezed IndyMac and are about to take over Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. That's three major bank failures in the span of three days. Sounds like the problem is all in me head, right Phil?

[speakmymind01]

Everything Phil Gramm said was exactly right.

Right on Phil!!!

[jtegnell]

...or "whiny" with two Ns for that matter.

[maxx1000]

.

Phil Gramm... another whinny American.

.

[osiris33]

speechless...

[realpointz]

that was quick

john mccain is a morron

[periwinklefrank92]

As much as I agree, you don't sound very intelligent yourself when you spell moron with two r's. Sorry. I had to point that out.

[realpointz]

this is funny

[fverona]

republicans have no respect for working class americans - usually they hide it, and the corporate press never calls them on it when they do slip up, but talking points memo and the new internet news sources are not so soft on hypocrites

[bushputz]

McCain: "Am I smart on economics? Yes...That's why people like Phil Gramm and Tom Colburn - real strong minds on the economy and conservatives on the economy are supporting me."

Wrong, Bucko. The phrase is not 'supporting me', but rather, 'using me'.

They know McCain is clueless about the economy, and will do whatever they tell him to do.

[LordXmen2k]

Biggest Flip Flop in history by a politician, how do you go from "He is my economic Guru" to "He doesnt speak for me"

I have whiplash, lol, McBush need not worry he will never be president, specially after insulting 300 millions american and telling them their pain is all psychological.

OBAMA 08

[dafttool]

McCain did right by immediately distancing himself from Gramm here, but it's laughable to believe his contention that Gramm doesn't speak for McCain. Gramm is on his campaign, going around the country acting as his surrogate.

[getplaning]

As the late 1990's stock market boom headed into the new millennium, there were some renewed legislative attempts to rein in the banking industry. In April 2000, Rep. John LaFalce (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Paul Sarbanes (D-Md.) introduced the Predatory Lending Consumer Protection Act of 2000. The banking lobby attacked the bill and its backers and won. What passed instead was Texas Sen. Phil Gramm's Commodity Futures Modernization Act of 2000.

[getplaning]

The act allowed unregulated, unlimited commodity trades through its "Enron Loophole," which allowed banks, brokerages, and hedge funds to trade energy and other commodity futures on unregulated exchanges. The results were disastrous.

You'd think that the guy who gave us the Enron loophole would now be persona non grata in Washington and in the world of finance. Phil Gramm went on to become a lobbyist and a vice president at UBS.

Now he wants to Treasury Secretary.
