Why don't you preach that message to Obama who is a millionaire several times over. Yet he has a brother living in a hut in Kenya? What a huminatarian what a man of the people. Guy's got a brother living in a flipping hut!! making a dollar a month!!! and John McCain is the bad guy.

McCain should know all about greed. He is all about greed. He only has eleven homes and a bevy of collectable automobiles. The oil companies will be very happy if McCain and the republicans manage to steal another election.

19% of Americans think that they are in the top 1%. If you made more than 1.3m last year you are in the top 1%. Wanting to be rich does not make you rich.

Mccain is a de-regulator

hes a flip-flopper.... like an old plastic bag floating around in the direction of political winds

Phil Gramm is back with McCain, he was only fired for press and public consumption.

[senorfish4]

McCain had the biggest banking/wallstreet deregulator, Sen. Phil Gramm, as his head economics adviser. McCain has always believed in deregulation- even calling himself a "deregulatory hawk." He fired Gramm. Now McCain wants to change wallstreet w/ regulation & oversight.

If McCain had flipped on deregulation to regulation SOONER and followed Obama in pressing for more regulation & oversight, we might not be in the mess we are in now. (BTW Phil Gramm also known for creating the "enron loophole")

John McCain is a fraud. He's a free trader, no regulations guy. No he's a reformer. What a bunch of BS.

[mosiebose]

McCains have been part of the greedy short sighted oportunists with their 7 houses and $100Mil. (just think how the help the ecomomy---how many gardners and wait staff).

While it is right that the economic problems are caused by greed, he and the lobbyists he buddies with are great part of the problem. He is like the "Preacher" that comdemns the whore as he goes out the back door.

Have you ever heard of the KEATING 5--check it out!

We not only need more regulation laws---but enforcement!!!

You have a lot to learn...There are many others who aren't as fortunate as you who are not able to get a Student loan because the Republican policy cut most of them out!!

Perhaps you might want to think of the welfare of others and be less self absorbed and patting yourself on the back for the loans you were fortunate enough to get...You'll get a cramp in your arm if you're not careful...

You sure have a lot to learn!

[mosiebose]

McSame is what he is. He will follow the SAME policies and Bush...wanted the war...say even if it takes 100 years! and give to the rich!

Obama is not and never was a Muslim...

So your comparison is odeous--intellectualy dishonest. You're comparing apples and oranges.

What is Dishonest is BUSh and MCCain(MCSame!) and it would be a mistake to call it "intellectually" as neither is intellectual and got where they are with their $ and Parentage...

Obama worked for anything he got!
