McCain Urges Bush To Buy Up Mortgages

SOCIALIST SOCIALIST!
Mccain I belive thats Socialism, And Mccain as I recall you have never been President when were you tested my friend in Senate and How?

McPoopy Pants was tested twice in this campaign. First, he chose Witless from Wasilla to be a heartbeat from the presidency. Second, he “suspended” his campaign to perform the greatest hummingbird imitation of our time. HE FAILED TWICE.
P.S. Norm Coleman called and asked why you could spend $150,000 on Witlesses’ wardrobe but had no money to help his campaign?

erratic last minute lurching
sounds like socialism and spreading the wealth to me

Comrade McCain you SOCIALIST!!!!!!

Angie, I agree – smacks of socialism to me.

Taking Tax Payers Money to buy up Bad loans that Banks Made is Not HELPING HOME OWNERS, Thats helping the Banks that made the Bad loans recover their Money back. Oh that Mccain always looking out for those Ceos of the Bank! wake up People Mccain could care less if you lose your home but he cares about those golden parachutes YOU BETCHA WINK WINK!

Angie
You are soooo right. It’s the Socialism that we’ve been warned about!!
As to his claim to have been tested, he was on alert on the USS Enterprise during the Cuban Missile Crises awaiting flight orders.
How a navy flier sitting on deck awaiting orders is considered passing the test, I don’t know. By that logic, any service man or woman serving and on alert on 9/11 has passed the same test.
I am not disparaging anyone’s service, but the test is actually on the person who has to MAKE the decision. Not the ones who carry it out, no matter how noble a duty that is. It is their job to carry out the orders of the Commander In Chief and they do it admirably.
Perhaps if he had been an advisor to JFK, that would pass the sniff test on this one. Otherwise, the only way to pass the test as President, is to be the President.

Are you sure that you don’t live in Communist VA where all the fake Virginians live? LOL
I love VA, beautiful place.

WHAT?
Johnny waving-my-”real”America-flag McCain is now promoting SOCIALISM?
But he just told us yesterday that was a bad idea?
I can’t believe that people are still listening to this guy!

REDDOG
What you Just descibed is SOCIALISIM AT ITS BEST! AND MCCAIN IS A REAL SOCIALISIT!

Are you sure that you don’t live in Communist VA where all the fake Virginians live?
—————
Actually I do live in the heart of “communist country”. Hahaha
Right next to the Arlington National Cemetary. The place where we lay our fallen soldiers. The place where President Kennedy is buried.
Gee, someday I hope to be a “real” American like Ms Palin. Guess I’ll have to leave “fake” Virginia to do it.

Plenty of people have been scratching their heads over Joe Biden’s warning to voters that electing Barack Obama would precipitate an international crisis to “test his mettle”. Investors Business Daily agrees with Biden, and notes that this wasn’t an off-the-cuff gaffe; Biden repeated the warning in two different venues. IBD points to an early Obama campaign video, in which Obama pledges unilateral disarmament on several fronts, as evidence supporting Biden’s hypothesis.
But there’s another angle to this, based on what Biden the senator knows — that Obama’s defense policies, once it’s obvious how they’ll undermine us, are likely to be very, very unpopular. In this case, Biden may be calling on his party’s hard, pacifist core — Moveon.org, Code Pink and the like — to stand by their man.
He’ll need their support. Like Jimmy Carter in the 1970s, Obama’s policies often sound good on the surface, but will in fact materially weaken America’s ability to defend herself. That’s not just our opinion, mind you; it’s straight from the horse’s mouth.
Such policies will create a vacuum that our foes will be only too happy to exploit.
In response to seeing a weakling in the White House, will Russia do something rash in Eastern Europe, like invade Ukraine? Will Putin put troops, missiles, or maybe nukes in Venezuela? Will South Korea develop a bomb, knowing the U.S. won’t stop it? Will Iran attack Israel, as it has promised, thinking America has become a paper tiger? We don’t know, but maybe Joe Biden does.
I think Biden wanted the Left to remain activist to support a retreat philosophy in the face of aggression from our enemies. Obama has consistently fronted that policy, in Iraq and elsewhere, both as a Senator and as a presidential candidate.
Biden knows Obama will need the Left to support the consequences of its Kucinich vision for American foreign policy.

Seems Mccain has been tested on how he will be as President and from what I have seen hes FAILED!

I wouldn’t vote for McCain even if you threatened to pull out my intestines out through my right nostril.
On the other hand… this could work. Banks might just be desperate enough to get rid of mortgages at a deep discount. And the government has the resources and the time horizon to absorb the risk. Given an economic turnaround, it could potentially be profitable to the taxpayer.
Credit where credit is due. Even the worst President in the history of the nation had a good idea or two. True, these could be attributed to the odds of probability or the dynamics of political appeasement, but it looks like a smart move in an erratic endgame.

McCain is just confused now.
Dear God, let us put him out of his misery quickly.
GO AND VOTE EARLY.
VOTE VOTE VOTE.
If 70-80% of those living in the 30 early voting states vote a week before Nov. 4th, McCain will know its over, fire Palin and then quit.
SO PLEASE GO AND VOTE NOW.
VOTE NOW.
VOTE NOW.
VOTE NOW.

comments to the Hey Biden guy…
just curious? are you talking about the weakling whose plane acidentally dropped bombs while on deck of the USS Forestal, which subsequently set off a series of explosions on deck? The weakling who then- while his shipmates were frantically scrambling to save their own and other’s lives on board…scurried below deck to watch them struggle (and some die)…on closed circuit tv from the officer’s break room? the weakling who then…when the worst was over and the cleanup (and at-sea burials) began….hitched a ride with a NEW YORK TIMES reporter to Hanoi for some “much-needed” R&R?
THAT WEAKLING?

ROFLMAO

McCain has never made a single executive decsion and has never worked in the private sector a day in his life.
Which might explain why is so out of touch with the American middle class.
His only true Presidential “tests” were chosing a VP – do we need say more about that decision?
And dealing with the economic crisis – in which, he had to “suspend” his entire campaign just to make a simple vote. And even then, his own party didn’t follow him. That’s supposed to be “leadership”?
The he “unsuspended” his campaign, following Obama’s lead, and the bill got passed.
Is he going to “suspend” the entire government in a crisis if he’s President?
Good thing we won’t have to find out!

Why should the taxpayers bail out the homeowners? Granted times are tough, but how many of these people bought a house over their head. Granted the mortgage companies approved these loans, but these people know what their income is and they should know what they can afford. Don’t people realize with a home you have all the utilities to pay? Then they need a new car, credit cards and oh my – we’re over our head.
It isn’t only the mortgage companies who are at fault – it’s also the homebuyer. But why, why should we pay more to bail these people out???????
Maybe Cindy and John could take some of their money, they must have some with owning 7-8 homes, and help these people.!! Or maybe Palin could sell some of her wardrobe and help?
I work 56 hours a week, and don’t feel I like should or want to pay for this. The bailout was enough and now McCain wants more. If he wants this bailout, take it out of your own money, not mine.
This is really a joke. He says Obama will raise taxes, but so will McCain to pay for the bail of the mortgage companies and the homebuyers. It’s quite evident, where else where the money will come from.
You know we do have a few smarts out here, we’re not all airheads.

“Proud to be un-American,
’cause at least I know I’m free
To choose to vote for the other guy
who’s smarter than you or G….”

“mavericky is as mavericky does” – Forest Gump
McCain must have a huge box of chocolates, you never seem to know what his going to get.

Americans need to clean house in Washington! The Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 (after great depression) was repealed in 1999 with congress controlled by Republicans and Phil Graham’s name all over it and then Clinton signed it into law. This played a huge part in where we are today, it lifted much needed regulations. Give the Republicans their fair credit for this! Where in conservative values does a trillion dollar deficit, bailing out corporations, now bailing out individuals with taxpayer money, more government and then taxing peoples (health plan) income come in? I’m an independent so maybe a conservative can answer these questions?

McSame is really a confused senile old man who has become very quickly a real socialist.I cannot wait to see him sent back to the Panama Canal.

More so than his party affiliation and voting support for the Bush Administration, McCain’s bigger political vulnerability has been and remains his questionable temperament.
Pounding on the podium in a way that leads reporters to use words like “flummoxed” just isn’t a good move for the guy.

McCain should buy up Obama’s campaign staff; the one he has is useless. They’ve turned a likeable old guy into a complete mess. He’s FOR redistribution of wealth to buy up mortgages, but AGAINST redistribution of wealth to facilitate tax cuts. I don’t get it.

Why should we, the responsible, bill-paying members of society, have to pay for those greedy HOMEBUYERS that took more money than they could afford? They should be left to face the consequences of their actions. Maybe the cold reality of a foreclosure would teach them to live within their means.

This is why I despise politics these days. Obama, McCain and, with few exceptions, our elected representatives in Congress are all hungry for more pork and power in Washington.
We need Newt and Zombie Reagan back in DC…

Cool, wtih regard to the fact that some people claim McCain would be Bush, I wonder then why McCain needs to urge Bush for acting on the economy, very funny. The lousy argument of the Democrats that McCain would be Bush is just a wishi washi tactic of the democrats to come to power.
If black America wants to get emotional, I can get emotional as well and say that not only you have been oppressed over centuries but also women, so here one reason more for my category to vote for McCain/Palin, because I want a female vice president.
