Lookie… a moment to lock arms in “harmony” and sing kumbaya! LOL

What you are forgetting, Doug, is that Obama and his merry Dems are all in agreement to rob the taxpayer to pay off the debt, and give all the cash to the Secy of the Treasury to play with sans legal review. BTW… I want to tell you all right now… I WANT TO BE APPOINTED TO THAT JOB NEXT YEAR (if this happens)! :0)

Since Obama… the puppet… is truly expendable, but the entire bill hinges on whether McCain can cross the aisle or not, or course JSM has to stay in DC.

McCain can’t obligate to appear because those negotiations take priority. If they are in the throes of negotiations tomorrow when the debate starts… well, Obama has free air time. Have a ball, guy… I believe Cynthia McKinney was ready to debate you.

If, however, the negotiations cease at a time that McCain can attend via satellite feed, or personally? He will. But we won’t know that until late tomorrow. But if you see McCain, I’d say expect to see a big TV screen for last minute transmission of his participation, instead of him standing at a podium .

Good on him for staying to see it thru. As I said, if he pulls this uniting across the aisle off, and in a way that the US public sanctions? Game over for Obama…. But he’ll have a last hurrah with a MS debate anyway.

jees doug, does stupid run in your family or are you the outstanding example/

Even Clinton made the obvious observation that McCain is not at all afraid of debating Obubbu, he tried to get him to do 10 or 20 town halls all over the country.

ABC, CBS, and NBC are going to McCain to interview him, he’s not flying to them.

All McCain is doing is clearing his schedule so that he doesn’t do his job while watching the clock. If he finishes and the bill is solid and sold in time, I’ll wager he will be willing to do it, *IF* the organisors are still set. But national networks generally need to set their time in advance and the public needs some lead time to be available.

Rescheduling is simply McCain being responsible and considerate to the rest of the people interested and impacted by the debate. Unlike Obama who just expects everyone to conform to his wants.

Well, tales from the ‘dog that ate my debate’: seems McCain doesn’t time for the debate tomorrow night, but he’s got time for ABC, NBC, and CBS tonight!

Johnny, maybe you should stop reading the The New-York Times… or leftist’s blogs. It is scary to see a citizen of the States that is so wrong about everything on what’s going on out there in that financial crisis. I could send you a few Canadian’s newspapers to enlighten you a bit… if you don’t want to read or look at American MSM. I am serious about that; it is very scary to think so many Americans don’t have a clue of what’s going out there. Your country is my neighbour, and I sure don’t want it to be governed by a freaking idiot like Obama. So please, get informed on the subject and put your Country first.

Johnny, there is ample blame to go around. Yes, Carter first started the ball rolling with the CRA. Clinton changed the compliance regs before the GOP Congress could take over. When the GOP had the Congress during the Bush terms, they did not reverse the damage done because there was enough GOPers siding with the DNC.

You might as well just blame all of Congress… both sides of the aisle. But even they had to have help for it to culminate into this.

I’ve put together the timeline of the events that created a perfect storm for where we are today. You will see that while the CRA was one component, it took other events in tandem to bring us to today.

Even Sean Hannity said today that Palin would stand a better chance against Barack.

Now, now Johnny.

You and I both know that is not true.

Either you didn’t pay attention closely enough so that you could hear and comprehend what Hannity had to say or you are here intentionally trying to mislead.

Which is it?

However; the question I have to ask is how and why did Bush and our elected leaders let things go this far for so long that it even got to this point. Bush is blaming the Clinton administration for all the problems. However who has been in office for the last eight years? Not Bill…

Johnny, the roots of these problems extend all the way back to Carter’s administration if you care to be honest about it.

Clinton strengthened, and enforced, regulations regarding red-line mortgages which set things in motion for what you see going on around you today.

President Bush began sounding the alarm all the way back at the beginning of 2001. Was that early enough for you?

It’s amazing to me that some folks are blaming Barack for Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac.

Johnny, how much money did B-Rock take from Freddie and Fannie in the very short time period that he has been in office?

Any idea?

Ever heard of Franklin Raines:

How about Jim Johnson:

Google those names and see what you come up with.

Raines acted as an ECONOMIC adviser for B-Rock.

Johnson was on B-Rock’s VP selection team until it was revealed that he had received preferential treatment when he got a home loan from Countrywide.

Because someone has not been answering the phone.

You’re right.

Congress has been absent on this.

They’re the ones with regulatory oversight.

That is why we need someone that we can have in office that can try to solve some of these problems. Not someone that is going to pretend that he can solve them.

You’re right.

John McCain is just the man for the job.

While B-Rock is out speechifying and hunkered down in uh, ah, eh “Debate Camp” McCain is exhibiting the leadership, the backbone, and the chutzpah to get the job done.

Do you have any idea how much preparation goes into planning a presidential debate? I have no idea presonally.

That is just one more of a myriad of things that you have no idea about.

Johnny, in the interest of seeing you broaden your awareness of what is going on with the mortgage market and the financial scene in general I cordially invite you to peruse the multiple threads and postings already on this site related to that subject.

McCain admittedly knows nothing about the economy. He and Palin have been taking crash courses trying to pretend that they are trying to put something together to save Wallstreet.

Right, Johnny… that’s why McCain was giving floor speeches in May 2006 for S 190, urging swift action on reforming Fannie/Freddie.

So we know where McCain was in May of 2006… that guy who’s “trying to pretend that they are trying to put something together to save Wallstreet” He, the Bush WH and the GOPers were trying to fix this problem in advance.

Now, assuming this is one of the 143 days your boy, Obama, decided to show up in the Senate, what was he doing?

Sorry, bubba… this one is clearly and plainly *owned* by McCain. Drop the talking points, and get with the program of facts, guy.

BTW, Barack was known as “Barry” during his school days… when he was not using the Obama surname. You really are behind the times, eh?

Why are the democrats scared to delay the debate for 10 days or so. McCain has taken the issue of leadership away from Hussein O and he won’t get it back. Hussein left the meeting with the president today and went to a ‘hotel’. Hasn’t he spent enough time in D.C. during his four years in the Senate to have a home there? I know 143 days on the floor isn’t long but he should have a home instead of a hotel, he’s stolen enough from the taxpayers to buy several homes. All you hear from the media is that Hussein is a ‘rock star’. Who the he** wants a drugged out rock star without the brains to pour pi** our of a boot as POTUS?
