McCain: If Bailout Bill Fails the ‘Crisis’ Will Become a ‘Disaster’

McCain Urges Bush To Spend $1 Trillion On Bailout — Without Congressional Approval
I’m not making this up. John McCain today urged the Bush Administration — on more than one occasion — to immediately and uniliterally spend $1 trillion buying up home mortgages.
I was watching live when he made the proposal this morning, and it seemed like such a staggeringly insane idea that I assumed he couldn’t be serious. He couldn’t think that Bush should just spend $1 trillion without asking Congress for permission…could he?
But then I saw his economic adviser try to back the idea up, and then I saw McCain make the proposal again during the NBC Nightly newscast. So he’s serious. He really thinks that Bush should just spend $1 trillion without talking to Congress, without seeking approval, without building any sort of consensus — without getting any protections whatsoever for taxpayers.
YOU PEOPLE WHO ARE VOTING FOR THIS MAN ARE AS INSANE AS HE IS…..

Call your reps and senators NOW… They will vote on this tonight!!! Don’t let Paulson become a financial dictator, who is allowed to steal from YOU and your children and give to billionaires! Call, Email… NOW!!! Don’t let this financial Patroit Act pass. PLEASE CALL/WRITE THEM RIGHT NOW!!!

Jake: what is wrong with your blog?? We can’t read any of the blogs unless you blog in every time.

sorenhawk: nice try… but I do believe it is McCain who personally have high paid lobbyist running his camp, who are still collecting the checks. You guys need to do better. Everything you guys throw at us daily has been proven to be lies or half truths from the McCain camp. Which in return makes him look really bad!

will he rescue the plan and make it fail again?
is he going to suspend his campaign again?
will sarah palin do any more interviews?

He made part of this happen before now he can fix it ???GET REAL Sad day for the country he pretends he is so good,.Got a little po when some one asked him if he made a mistake putting Palin on the ticket got a little temper he has….

Will someone PLEASE tell the American people the TRUTH? Is this a good bill or a bad bill? Is the economy really that f**ed up that we have to fork over so much money? Where will the money really go? Who will benefit and who will fall into a pile of s**t? Who is really responsible for this mess? Democrates blame Republicans and Republicans blame Democrats…and almost everyone blames Bush. This is probably the ONLY truth we know so far.

sorenhawk: This might help you out a little…
The “present” vote in Illinois is sometimes cast by state lawmakers with a conflict of interest who would rather not weigh in on an issue. Other times, members use the option to object to certain parts of a bill, even though they may agree with its overall purpose.
“The ‘present’ vote is used, especially by more thoughtful legislators, not as a means of avoiding taking a position on an issue, but as a means of signaling concerns about an issue,” said state Rep. John Fritchey.
Obama sponsored 820 bills in the Illinois State legislature. So much so that the Illinois Times featured him in a cover story naming him HEAD OF THE CLASS for his legislative abundance.

Strange, but I haven’t heard any Republicans who voted against the Bailout say it was because of Obama that they voted against it, or because of Acorn, or because of Obama’s campaign advisers and I haven’t heard them blame anyone on Obama’s team for causing the financial crisis this country is in. They have all said “there is plenty of blame to go around” meaning that the Republicans themselves are as much to blame as anyone. Why are you nitwits who don’t even understand the problem so quick to blame everything on Obama? Like he is the person responsible for every single disastrous event this country has experienced in the past 8 years. Sure, blame him for Katrina, too!! Please, don’t hesitate to correct me if I’m wrong, but is it not Bush/Cheney who have been running the show during this period of time?

geecee: Get a clue, that is why no one has brought it to the american’s attention because most of the stations are only broadcasting or reporting sound bites in Obama’s favor so not too many people know that Obama is behind alot of this. Check Fox News once and you will get all the information that is true and factual. This station is only for the Democrates who only look out for themselves as you can tell by the economic mess they got us into. Like I stated Obama has both CEO’s that caused this mess on his payroll. Check out Fox News! Obama says he is for change but can anyone tell me exactly what he means? He just says that he is for change, how do you know if it is good or bad.

The Repugs railing against the bailout are just stupid.
Our house is on fire.
Instead of doing everything to put the fire out, you want to chase those who set the fire.
By the time you catch them the house would have burned to ground you morons.
If we have to catch and jail those who set the fire like you neocons say, we should:
IMPEACH BUSH AND CHENEY.

sorenhawk: Fox news…..explains it all.

I claims allegiance to no party, since that seems ignorant to me. But from what I’ve seen, Republicans are extremely arrogant and hard headed. They’ll eat up all the negativity toward Obama and buy it as gospal. But when something negative is learned about McCain and brought to light…they go on the offensive and refuse to accept that it just may be true. Then they don’t want to research facts on their own…too lazy and would rather accept those daily Obama bashing e-mails as their main source of “facts”. I have many friends on both sides of the tracks here and the Democratic ones are hiding in the wings…waiting to pounce on voting day. I also know numerous PRIOR Republicans that are voting for Obama this time around because of the circus of a campaign McCain is running and the current Bush administration.
As far as the bail-out…I think to make it more appeasing to the average Joe like you and I, there needs to be some punitive damages thrown in for the CEO’s that caused this mess. Put some blood in the water to feed the sharks! We don’t want our tax dollars going to arrogant people (Republicans??) that tried to get away with our livelihoods!!!

sorenhawk – Fixed Noise Channel (FOX) is the most sensationalistic, scandalous, tabloid, irresponsible, fear-mongering; fringe-element leaning “news” channel broadcasting on America’s airwaves today. They are so slanted against Obama it is downright flagrant and blatant. I wouldn’t believe a word they said. Yet every other news network reports the truth and you McCain supporters claim they are in the tank for Obama! So if 10 are reporting the truth and 1 is spreading rumors, innuendo, outright lies and ridiculous assertions, why would I watch that channel? Yeah, only Fox gets to the truth!!! Right. Everyone else is covering up something. Does that really make sense to you? Call your doctor.

ENOUGH OF REPUBLICAN LIES.
ENOUGH OF REPUBLICANS IN POWER.
GOD IS NOT ON THE REPUBLICANS SIDE, AND THAT IS WHY HE ALLOWED ALL THESE DISASTERS TO HAPPEN.
LET’S GO BACK TO GOOD TIMES.
DEMOCRATS FOR 09′

This bill IS A SHAM! Oppose it at all costs!
It is a giant land grab by several institutions, especially Goldman Sachs! Just as NJ’s governor, who is a former Goldman CEO, the Treasury head is former Goldman. Guess who is the main benefactor of this deal… you got it. Goldman! NJ’s governor, Jon Corzine, and the NJ government over the past several years have directly benefitted Goldman Sachs. It’s a running joke in NJ that Goldman seems to be the ONLY lending institution in the country. FORMER GOLDMAN PEOPLE TAKE CARE OF GOLDMAN… PERIOD!
Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio) is 100% correct on this problem. If the problem is bad mortgage debt, then the problem should be solved from the BOTTOM UP! Just like how Obama wants to correct the economy and help the middle-class by starting from the BOTTOM UP! If Goldman wasn’t getting any money from this deal, I might think that it has a bit of legitimacy to it. But Goldman seems to be the main beneficiary of this plan.
Floating money from the TOP DOWN WILL NOT correct this problem – THE BAD MORTGAGES WILL STILL EXIST! Fix the bad mortgages – Stop the foreclosures – Save the people’s homes. If the big institutions are complaining about the bad mortgages, How can they complain if the bad mortgages are addressed? DO NOT GIVE THEM THE MONEY DIRECTLY!
THIS IS A LAND GRAB AT THE EXPENSE OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!

I say write to your representatives if against this.

I am expressing I’m unhappy with the idea of a bailout. I feel if passed Americans will yet again pay for others greed and poor choices. I vote no.

McCain and Obama are correct. This crap bill must pass. It will be utter ruin in the market if they do not act.

2001 Bush tried to get oversight on these failing companies and the Dems blocked while the Repubs allowed it.
2003 the same exact thing happens.
2005 McCain made a passionate speach calling for a bill he co-authored to be passed preventing this very crisis. He described it perfectly as it is occuring. Dems blocked it and repubs allowed them to.
2008 the CEO’s of these two companies are staffed on Obama’s campaign. One is in charge of helping narrow down his VP list. Obama claims he and not McCain called for the 2005 legislation but thank you C-Span, OBAMA A LIAR and ABC didn’t have the guts to call him on it. Any of you ever check out C-Span?

hey sorenhawk.
You should look at this link…maybe you will have a better understanding of whom you are voting for.
Wake up America. stop selling out yourselves and blindly support someone and not see the big picture.

ONE DAY LEFT PALIN!!
There’s only one day left before the debate Palin… Ouch, it isn’t going to be pretty…
You and McCain can play down expectations, you can talk about being “Joe six-pack” whatever you want. However sweetie, this is the big leagues and you are going to get beaten shamefully. Not by Joe Biden, but by yourself!!
My guess is by Friday morning you and the rest of your family will be on a Greyhound bus back to Alaska, tickets courtesy of the Republicans…
Your stupidity will be so obvious, that even the dumbest of your redneck supporters will desert you!!!

I predict that Biden will steal someone elses speach for the debate, pass it off as his own and then brag about how he graduated top five percent at Harvard…oh sorry, that was already done by BIDEN. Taking bets, Biden takes the low road and lies and Palin takes the high road and tells the truth.

There is one person who has some credibility on this issue. This person understands economics and how markets operate. This person has said that this bill (and it’s essentially the same bill as that voted on by the House) is wrong.
Because he understands these topics, I will listen to what Ron Paul has to say about this bill. He gets it better than probably anyone else in Congress.

Vote ‘No’ to the bailout-Resuce Plan. The New Plan, puts Humpty Dumpty back onthe Wall Street. Wall Street is the seperation, between The 5% and the 95%. The New Revisions, only make Wall Street in control again. We wil once again loose our ‘Independence’. Why would anyone support, the New Bill, will only bring forth a Credit Line of ‘Mass Destruction.’Please vote ‘No’ to ‘Wall Street’. No More Division.
Let Americans own their own homes. By Saving Wall Street, They can still own Your Houses, and later, evven raise the intrest rate, to earn themselves more money.
Vote Independant.
WallStreet will Buy McCains ‘WIN’

Call Your Congress and Say NO, to the same Bush McCain division Plan.
Vote Independent. Not Wall Street Support.
Looking At McCains Past Record, He has only voted, when his elect 5%, would make more of a Gain.
McCain was held away form voting No, on the Past Bill, because his 5% would not gain anything. This is a set-up. Put this view in your History Books. McCcain is Buying Wall Streets ‘Fixed’ Votes.
Vote No to McCains Afgan War ‘Draft’. View McCain’s past voting record. Voted against money for Younger Education, But supports his Funding of Teenagers of Drafting Age.
Vote No to Mc Wall Street.
Watch CNN and MSNBC for the Truth.
No more Bi-Partisanships. This leaves out ‘Independence’. This takes th American Independence away.
Vote No to McCain

Man, I just a crazy thought…..let’s just get the hell out of Iraq….It will save us $60 billion a year. We could take another $79 billion from Iraq’s profit oil profit as well to pay for services already rendered. It’s not $700 billion but it’s a start.

I’m sorry I can’t vote for Obama as he has no real record. He hasn’t even been a Senator for 4 yrs. I’m sure he’s a “good man” but there are too many uncertainties about him. He talks a good game but things just don’t add up. He’s too liberal, too much government, too much spending and not enough experience. His preacher is controversial; he went there for 20 yrs, you can’t tell me he wasn’t influenced by him after 20yrs in the pews. And his wife is no only proud of him now. Scary. I’ll go with a man who has shown true service and sacrifice for his country; willing to even give up his life for it. He may not be as smooth talking or charismatic as Barry but I know he truly loves this country and wants what’s best for it. Barry Obama is just too much of an scary unknown at this time.

If Rick Davis is MORE CORRUPT than Acorn, Why does Capital Socialists only focus on Acorn.

See McCain sounding like Palin on CNN and MSNBC. AVOIDING the QUESTIONS, and Changing the Subject.

Our political leaders (including McCain and Obama) is just trying to scare us. And the banks/wallstreet has assisted by limiting the loans. As soon as it quiets down in a few weeks they will start loaning again. We do not need to bailout these companies. It is really just a bandaid on a dam that our democrats and republican currently serving has allowed. This is a natural process, wall street will rebound. Oh and by the way if they cared about the economy they would stop paying and giving the breaks to the companies that are now outsourcing all the jobs.
