McCain: Obama ‘Missing In Action’ on Econ Plan; Can’t Wait for his ‘Paralysis’ to be Over

Obama is also missing in action about his earmarks. If the truth be known.
Earmarks – just this year Joe Biden requested over $340 million in pork. Obama has not released any information on his earmarks yet. The McCain campaign has asked for how much earmarks Joe Biden has requested since 1972 when he started…must be a staggering sum since he requested just $340 million this year. The Obama campaign called for a request checking John McCain back since 1990 and could not find any evidence that McCain had ever requested or received any earmarks. Who is giving away your money?

McCain is right. Why Obama has only come up with one plan while John has come up with 7 different plans, one for every house.

Hey, it’s time to tie Obama to Bush.
Obama is Bush 3rd term. He is strongly supporting gov. bail out.

McCain was jumping all over this issue and was wrong only to make a u-turn the next day. Obama on the other hand waited for the facts and then made a sound judgment.
Once again Obama has been right and McCain has been wrong.

McFlipFlopper,
What is your final position?
What is your plan?
We don’t want generalities. We want the meat and how you are going to pay for it.
Obama has laid down a plan on how to save the Financial markets. Obama has outline how to put checks and balances in the bailout plan.
What has McCain proposed? NOTHING.

McCain can propose plans that will never be implemented.
By time he takes office, the “crisis” will be over 110 days past on his lobbyist buddies will have cashed their bonus checks.
I say screw the bailout and give the $3,500 or $4,500 cost per taxpayer to each taxpayer to spend as they like. This stimulus should cover the economic activity of the bailout money.

Obambino is busy to work out the deal with Slick Willy to bring Hill back. Biden will fake a stroke. It seems like there is some technical issues regarding Hill to be back but not as VP and Obambino doesn’t know what to do. Afterall, the drive-by media said 1 out of 3 white libs may not vote for a black dude, so Obambino may just have to take the Veep job. Stay tune for the libs’ drama in October

WHEN YOU WATCH MCCAIN U CAN SEE HE IS IN PAIN FROM THOSE OLD ARTHRITIS KNEES.CAN U IMAGINE WHEN HE GOES TO BED , HOW LONG IT WOULD TAKE FOR HIM TO GET UP . WOW

What planet has McCain been living on for the past week? I’ve been listening to Obama, and he’s been saying all along what needs to be done, including common-sense regulation and protecting the middle class. McCain, on the other hand, started last week by calling for a commission to study the situation. Then he wanted to fire SEC Chairman Christopher Cox, a loyal Republican, but he didn’t know the law didn’t allow him to. He ended the week by a) blaming Obama for the current crisis, and b) calling for new regulation, in contradiction of 26 years of supporting de-regulation. So of the two candidates, McCain is the one who has proven he doesn’t have a plan! Now McCain says that de-regulation worked so well for the banking industry, he wants to do the same to health care! We can NOT afford John McCain as president!

If the terrorist attack America again, and IF (a big IF) Obama is in the White House, DON’T EXPECT HIM TO RETALIATE THE TERRORIST AND TO PROTECT YOU, Obama will likely go to the United Nations and “wait for their plan” because he “does not want to interfere”. Anyone doubting my words can just read what barack HUSSEIN obama answered the press in regard of this DIRE ECONOMIC SITUATION.

Has anyone heard anything from Obama that actually has details? I mean real details and not ambiguous ideas that are designed for voters who cannot fathom complexity!

LEADERSHIP DEMANDS: DECISIVENSS, COMMITMENT & FLEXIBILITY…………..In this DIRE economic situation and this presidential election, Obama shows he has none of these qualties. His “wait & see” attitude in face of the dire economic situation underline his INDECISIVENESS. His abandoment of 3 battlefields (the last one being North Dakota) illustrates his NON-COMMITMENT (aka DEFEATISM). As for flexibility…well…he has it but only if it serves his own agenda like his “flexibility” on the campaign fumd raising. But that’s not flexibility, THAT’S FLIP-FLOPPING BECAUSE IT ONLY SERVES HIS OWN GOODS.

>> Has anyone heard anything from Obama that actually has details?
Yes to the most possible details ever, on the campaign website, and his blueprint.

Obama freezes Decision time. Its paralysis of his neuron cells. There is short circuit somewhere underneath which leads all the way to his head. the neurons in a heat.
McCain/Palin 08

The comments coming out of the McCain camp are truely comical.. so now he seems to be insinuating that, instead of giving this huge financial mess that has some of the greatest financial powers scratching their heads on a bit of thought and consideration, that he should instead be like him, and come up with a hastily thrown together plan based on a knee-jerk reaction, maybe abrubtly change positions and fire a few people, regardless of it being unconstitutional or not. Thanks John, but no thanks..

Hey WillNotBeFooledByObamaNATION…
Looks like you have been fooled.. but it wasn’t by Obama!

Obama can’t make any decisions in a timely manner as he has 300 advisors. He would be THE MOST ADVISOR DRIVEN PRESIDENT OF ALL TIME…I don’t want my tax dollars going to this bozo and his triple the Secret Service posse.
Give me a leader without having to check with his puppet masters….SENATOR JOHN SYDNEY McCAIN and NOT BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA!

The media should get away from this
financial stuff, and focus on the important issues. McCain wears sunglasses. Obama does not wear sunglasses. I am certain that McCain has several pair of sunglasses. Who do you trust to make the big decisions. Sunglasses, or no sunglasses. Obama openly defies the sun. McClain is weak and hides. WAKE UP PEOPLE!

And in reply to the post about McCain’s earmark’s doublespeak, here you go…
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/3036677/#26843901
McCain’s earmarks stand is all a phony veneer… political posturing.

Why no headline with the Democratic Tennessee Senator Mike Kernell and his son David, who is tied to the Obama campaign and he is being subpoenaed for hacking into Gov. Palin’s email. This is in the news….can you cover this?

Lobbyists Are Running The McCain Campaign
All of the TOP PEOPLE in the McCain campaign are lobbyists for large corporations, including Big Oil, and FOREIGN COUNTRIES.

Regional Campaign Manager- Doug Davenport ran DCI”s lobbying practice. Was forced to leave when it was exposed that he LOBBIED FOR the REPRESSIVE REGIME IN BURMA.
Campaign Spokesman- Charlie Black who is chairman of BKSH & Associates, with lobbying billings of $7.6 million in 2006
Barack Obama has no lobbyists on the payroll or serving as key advisers.

And let’s all remember how creative McCain’s plan is … let’s establish a new governing agency — the same plan that the Bush Administration came up with! Imagine my surprise…

I laugh when I think of a Chicago community organizer. Really funny!

Ah Obama’s plan its change fresh from the 1950′s and the communist manifesto. Lets bring back regulation, just because it lead to super stagflation in the 70&80s in the US and collapsed the Soviet Economy doesn’t mean it will again.

– Ah Obama’s plan its change fresh from the 1950′s and the communist manifesto. –
I’d be interested in how you can substantiate that claim, and how you came to such a conclusion.. I’m bored tonight and need a few laughs.

Its quite confusing. Days ago Obama laid out his plan, Today McCain laid out his plan.Now John Keating 5 Mccain who supported deregulation throughout his career wants regulation.I do remember him standing up for Reaganomics 2 decades ago.Now he wants regulations on the big bad Wall Streeters that have been his friends for so long as one can remember. He’s for the plan that he’s also against.He wants to protect the people whom he never protected before. He did vote against the minimum wage 10 times, did he not? He doesn’t want the big shots who have paid his way through his career to make more than the President of the US.Is that not against the free market? Now the bail out is socialism for the wealthy, corporate welfare is it not? If we dont bail them out we loose our jobs perhaps.
Now John McCain says we can’t give one person 700 billion dollars to spend freely. Hes got to be regulated. Didn’t the democrats say that too.
I kid of remember a situation where the Pentagon was given billions in cash to spend in Iraq. No one knows where that was blown.There was no oversite, was there not?
I think that if you figure that 99% of us pay most of the taxes, perhaps if you gave us the 700 billion we can sper the economy and perhaps create new wealth as the old wealth fades away.
The only other option is for the government to purchase the assets at market value and sell them for a profit ASAP.There was a report that Paulson planned to buy the assets at above market value. who knows if that was trth or not. We should not further reward the crooks who happen to be supporters of the Republican party any longer. I must also sy the same way these crooks use short sales to hedge their loss they also contribute to the democrats to hedge their bets.
Perhaps the fairest way is to figure how much the 1% pays in taxes deduct the difference in interest they pay in loans and the figure what the other 99% pay intaxes and add their interst and divide the bail out between the big shots in a proportion figured previously and give the majority to the rest of us to get the economy rolling again. If were to become socialist than the rest of us should benefit from the same socialism that the big shots get.
I am sure John McCain and friends would hate my solution because it is a fairer socialism than the deal we are about to get.

No, McCain is not Mr. Magoo. He is Hugh Hefner (85) and his (21 year old) girlfriends Sarah.
She: Gee, I never went out with someone over 25 before.
Hef: Neither have I.

Lie #13625367 from the McCain campaign.

RE: Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005 –
“The Office of Federal Housing Enterprise Oversight’s report goes on to say that Fannie Mae employees deliberately and intentionally manipulated financial reports to hit earnings targets in order to trigger bonuses for senior executives. In the case of Franklin Raines, Fannie Mae’s former chief executive officer, OFHEO’s report shows that over half of Mr. Raines’ compensation for the 6 years through 2003 was directly tied to meeting earnings targets. The report of financial misconduct at Fannie Mae echoes the deeply troubling $5 billion profit restatement at Freddie Mac.”
“I join as a cosponsor of the Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005, S. 190, to underscore my support for quick passage of GSE regulatory reform legislation. If Congress does not act, American taxpayers will continue to be exposed to the enormous risk that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac pose to the housing market, the overall financial system, and the economy as a whole.”
– Sen. John McCain (AZ)–May, 2006
NOTE: The Democratic members of Congress killed this bill. Franklin Raines supplied “economic advice” to Obama’s campaign. Go figure.

http://www.govtrack.us/congress/record.xpd... -

From the LA Times: “Barack Obama outlines plan for economic crisis -
Many of Obama’s proposals, which include a second economic stimulus package and bipartisan teamwork, are similar to those of John McCain. The Republican says he wants earmarks barred from any bill.” Now, who is playing follow the leader???
