QUESTION: "Senator McCain, you have said repeatedly, quote, I know a lot less about economics than I do about military and foreign policy issues. I still need to be educated.

Why are they jumping on McSame about these flip-flops?

How do they expect the old coot to remember what he said a couple of months back -- WHEN HE CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER WHAT HE SAID YESTERDAY?

It's time for his family to intervene & take him to the home.

Just take a moment to think about it you dumb ass conservatives.

Just how much money did you make on your job while the other liberal president (Clinton) was president? When you compare McCain's Econimic plan to Obama's plan, you'd be able to afford a lot of more things than what you can afford to buy right now like a house or food. There's a lot of people who can't afford a home which is why a lot of those people have to qualify for a section 8 house while having to live off of food stamps.

This morning's Good Morning America just reported that banking CEOs and execs are STILL getting $23 BILLION in bonuses -even after 170,000 job losses in that sector.

Let's see...That would pay for 460,000 jobs, each paying $50,000/yr for an entire year.

And trickle-down works HOW?????

what a 'ron. Third time is not a charm old man. Nobody feels bad for you still. Just got back to AZ and get ready for cindy to divorce you because you aren't the president.

my point is less rent is more money in the pocket,so that means more people can buy thing

to help wall street,plus vote yes on 10 so people can use solar power from the sun less light bills, that mean more money in the pocket as well,and we can go buy more things from stores, that will help wall street

[ColdFireBeats]

dumb ass, economy starts with rent in the home

think about it, the stock is products that not selling or homes thats not selling,

so,lets say if a 2 bed room apartment is 1200 a month and you need 2 people to live together to pay rent, that is what fuck up the economy, because they share the same tv,but if rent was 800 for 2 bed rooms maybe tom can leave jon and have his on apartment now that is 2 tvs that has been sold so that just help the stock on sony or what ever brand you want,

I DON'T CARE WHAT ANY OF YOU LIBERALS SAY, I like John McCain's economic plan! I heard that he has a plan to ballance government spending with a mix of black magic and astrology. He is a cancer, right? I don't think that McCain graduating fifth from the bottom of his college class means he is dumb, it simply means that he is a Joe six pack. I think if we all went down to the local Maverick and got ourselves a six pack, our economy would fix its self.

McCain 2046

Because he will live forever!
