I just ask that you (on occasion) back up your comments with facts, evidence... link to articles, etc.<BR/><BR/>I know you are used to how things might be done in the MSM, where Republicans can lie, mislead and use propaganda without anyone challenging them.

What basis do you have for calling the information "untrue" other than you don't agree with it or you refuse to accept it.<BR/><BR/>Were you present at any of these meetings? No.<BR/><BR/>Why should anyone believe you (someone who has not offered any facts or cited any sources to backup your arguments) and not believe those who were actually present at the meetings or who were in close contact with those who were present? Give me a break!<BR/><BR/>You will have to do better than this if you want to continue posting comments.<BR/><BR/>Vandalism will not be tolerated here.Brian https://www.blogger.com/profile/07872444863142531165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21083673.post-71800080154818500222008-09-26T06:54:00.000-07:002008-09-26T06:54:00.000-07:00This piece is so bias and untrue I won't even wast...This piece is so bias and untrue I won't even waste much time on it. Forty Years of Republican rule?? Who was Bill Clinton?? Who Runs the House and Senate and passes these bill through??

This is not about that at all..<BR/><BR/>This is about a man - John McCain- who is attempting to benefit from the financial crisis by using the meeting as a photo opportunity and as a gimmick to fool the American people and turn attention away from his failings (in the years leading to the crisis, and during the crisis itself). He also wants to divert attention away from the fact that one of his main economic advisors was (is) a paid lobbyist working for Fannie Mae & Freddie Mac. <BR/><BR/>The nonsense about delaying the debate was a distraction... and an attempt to make it look as if McCain was putting "Country First"...that he was some sort of great leader. He has already been using his campaign slogan to describe his actions yesterday..."Country First"...so it is obvious why he pulled these stunts. It's a naked attempt to get political gain from the crisis (a crisis he helped to create). Now on top of that...he wants to exacerbate the crisis that we already have.<BR/><BR/>In fact, from what I have read and heard... McCain basically ambushed the meeting and caused everything to go off track. He wants to create a crisis within a crisis... so that he can hijack events and become the center of attention. He wants to look Presidential... to make himself look like the hero who saved the day. <BR/><BR/>McCain had not even been involved with the ongoing discussions. <BR/><BR/>And it's amazing to me that someone who fought so hard against government regulation and oversight of the banking system now all of a sudden is in favor of oversight. OBAMA BETTER MAKE THAT POINT!!! I'm tired of the way Obama and the MSM allows McCain to get away with this nonsense.<BR/><BR/>He doesn't want to debate tonight because he wasn't ready for Obama. So he had to create some sort of chaos... to divert everyones attention.<BR/><BR/>If I have time, I will post more on this later... but McCain's antics are sickening. <BR/><BR/>If a deal isn't done by next Monday... I wonder how many people might lose their jobs or their retirement savings because of what McCain did this afternoon. How many lives will be be responsible for screwing up with his recklessness.<BR/><BR/>Country First My....!Brian https://www.blogger.com/profile/07872444863142531165noreply@blogger.com
