Sitting here listening to McCain saying that it's not the business

[cornermouse]

of government to bail people out and wondering if we should demand that he repay the government for money lost in the Keating 5 scandal.

1. will someone ask him if it's the government's business

to bail the fucking banks out?

3. Wonder if he felt that way when

his campaign was going bust and he applied for public financing?

[cornermouse]

5. ahem...well.....uh.... That's different, you know?

Those are special circumstances which he may have even helped set up way back when.

4. He's a hypocritical shitbag..

7. I'm reminded of Katrina.

Not an immediate life and death situation, no.

But it's a major disaster. It's going to cost the country billions. Lots of people forced from there homes. It'll effect everybody. Lots of assholes saying "you shouldn't help these people, it's there own fault" but they have no problem bailing out the oil companies.

8. I consider the lack of help or interest during and post

Katrina to be a disgrace and scandal all by itself.

9. Yes, I agree.

That's pretty much my point.
