John McCain and "The Keating Five"

[shadomst]

And they're still doing it.

thank you for this post. we need to appeal to the loyal republicans. they know that they are playing with fire. they know that their lives much worse because of the last 8 years but it is too hard to admit that you are wrong and then have nowhere to go. we must stop the name calling and reach out a hand. respect and care for your lost republican. they need a new home.

in case you don't know, Robert Bennett was the Senate Ethics Committee lawyer that investigated John McCain. He is a registered democrat who also defended Bill Clinton.

McCain and Palin are dangerous, reckless, unintellegent, egotistical politicians. It is unfathonable to see them in the White House. Under McCain, America would futher sink on the world stage to the level of a facist military oil industry run state. The world needs peace, brotherhood, religious tolerance, understanding, democracy, cooperation, etc. You and I will not squeeze these qualities from a tortured, old-as-hell, out-of-touch,senile, retired soldier and an Alaskan moose killer.

Mr McCain seeks to bankrupt the futures of our grandchildren. The George W. Bush oil industry administration has cost unnecessary loss of lives for thousands of Ameica's sons and duaghters in Iraq. Condollessa Rice was a Chevron Director for 10 years. Chaney ran Oil industry contractor Halliberton. George W. Bush owned Arbusto Oil, financed by Osama Bin Laden's brother!!!George HW Bush works for the Saudi Royal Family and their Carlye defense/oil industry holding company.

Mr. McCain and his oil industry friends, including Sarah Palin and her husband, as well as President Bush have made well over a trillion dollars from the Iraq War, 4 dollar/gal/gas prices, and now a TRILLION DOLLAR Wall Street tax payer financed bailout plan. It is absolutley dispicable for Mr. McCain to have made it to the general election. He is mentally ill, a war monger, an ungodly udulterer, a crook, and a person who does not represent main street Americans.

[Buckeyecat2002]

How many older main street middle class Americans lost their life savings and died in dispair from the actions of John McCain and Charles Keating. Mr. Keating remains a BILLIONARE. McCain and his wife are worth at least TWO HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS.

History repeating itself.

History records of the Keating 5:

"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"."

Seeing as I'm over 40, I remember this. It's the main thing I associated with McCain. Now McCain's son recently left a bank (Silver State) one month before it collapsed. McCain has been calling for deregulation and allowing insurance/banks merge, etc., for more than 20 years ... hm ... and now we have the mortgage crisis.

When will the American public wake up and stop going with their basest instincts that McCain-Palin feed??
