15. McSame in not out of touch ,, He just doesn't give a d... about you or me
As far as I am concern this was a planned policy by Cheney and
his corporate CEO's which if you notice all h... broke out at
the end of Bush/Cheney's term..
They know d... well that the senate and congress will pass
what ever he demands then to.   They will slap a little
goodies for few American and then hold their heads up saying
it's a good bill and will help our country.   
They are full of S... , every single bit of legislature they
have passed in the past 7.5 years have only help corporations
and "FOREIGN COUNTRIES"..   By sending our
manufacturing plants , our jobs , the corporations in our
country going overseas to setup their tax free headquarters
and be out from our taxes the very thing they have stolen to
build their empires.  
We in the h... is their support and care in this situation ,
hell not they don't what anymore taxes they demand that we pay
then while they steal our taxes right in front of our faces ,
laughing all the way to their foreign banks...
When are we going to Wake Up America and ""demand
them to get the h... out of our country.   They bitch about
Bin Laden , well look just how is the terrorist which has done
the most damage. 
I am sending again , not a nice email to my representative
which believes they know what is good for our country..  
They can even stop the corporate republicans from stealing the
elections right in front of their faces , how in the h... do
you expect them to stop Bush from stealing our democracy ,
economy , our social programs and our military.

Bush has kill our social security program , our retirement
programs , our educational system and any thing close to a
program to benefit the citizens of this country and it is just
what he wanted to do and they call him the idiot.   Well our
democrats had better look in the the mirror , because Bush has
demanded and received everything that corporation have paid
him to do for them...

7. wow.. just wow..
Oh man... McCain is just feeding the Obama campaign everyday with damaging comments like that.
Obama doesn't even need to coax him into saying anything. The guy just digs his own grave...

The Obama campaign and the democrats are going to have a field day with this soundbite come monday!

11. Never admit a mistake
Besides, most RepubliCons can't even spell 'hypocrisy,' much less spot it.

13. God, I love this man. I start to worry that we may lose momentum ...
... and then he blesses us with idiotic statements like this. The "growth" of our economy since 1999 has now been shown to be a fraud, based on deregulated banks running wild.

What a total moron.

20. Our economy has been built on a series of houses of cards in recent years.
There has been no real wealth created. It's just been a series of paper transactions with nothing tangible to back them up.

22. Which is why McCain's "deregulation led to the growth of the economy" statement is so absurd.
After accounting for inflation (and dollar devaluation), our economy hasn't grown in a long time. As we've seen the last week, it's a big bubble that's bursting; no real growth was experienced.

18. Yep! When you dig yourself in a hole, Republicans' response is to keep digging.

The reason the U.S. economy almost collapsed was because of lack of oversight and accountability.
When Junior wrecks the car, you don't just give him the keys to another car without some punishment and conditions.

21. I Would Like To See Obama Say
Something like this in debate Friday: "Sen. McCain, you may huff and puff all you want in indignation but that doesn't change the fact ...". That should get under McCain's skin pretty good.
