Wall Street & John McCain are phonies

Most people I’ve talked to in the last week or so have said one of two things about what has transpired on Wall Street:

NO MONEY FOR WALL STREET

GIVE SOME MONEY TO WALL STREET BUT NOT ALL AT ONCE

Wall Street & John McCain are phonies. Both have been running on the idea you can put lipstick on the pig, but didn’t realize that many Americans could still see the Pig underneath and these Americans didn’t like what they saw! Wall Street companies and others have been gaming the system which propped up the market for quite some time, but now we all know that this was a very bad idea, regulation is needed, was fake, and it’s criminal acts like this that hurt our nation. John McCain, on the other hand, has always been about deregulation and is now in a fury trying to be “Mr. Regulation” and “Mr. Stronghand”, when we all know if John McCain was not running for the presidency right now, he would be WANTING A WALL STREET BAILOUT. Guaranteed. And he would have had the benefit of hiding from the media, but he doesn’t now. He’s right out there in the front and last night…

…he decided to use this whole thing politically to make himself out to be the King of Sanity. Can you say ‘lipstick’? Huh? Can ya!!!!

Oh please! Give us a break.

One or two things happened at the meeting at the White House:

Either, John McCain had it planned with the republicans that he would come to the White House to save the day and the House republicans waited all afternoon to “cave” to him

Or, the House republicans were really wanting to not bailout Wall Street and are now furious that McCain came in like a spoiled rotten child who needs help getting elected to Class President!

It’s my understanding last night the House republicans would not be coming to the meeting today at the White House, which tells me the latter is true. Yep, Mr. Phony showed up to save the day and did it all for political reasons because his presidential bid is tanking!

Of course, all of what happened last night is exactly what Americans wanted…at least temporarily: DON’T DO ANYTHING, LET THE FBI DO THEIR JOBS, AND SEE HOW WALL STREET HANDLES IT THEMSELVES. In all honesty, the House republicans did not want a bailout of Wall Street at all and they got their way.

It’s not lost on me that it’s the republicans and their deregulation policies that have created the mess we’re in. Every time we have a republican president, Big Business thinks it can do what it wants without oversight. Hell, their president can even commit high crimes & misdemeanors and they still won’t do oversight! Oh, but now they’re seeing the error of their ways and are frantic! Good. They deserve it.

Americans want the least hurtful outcome to them in this mess. If that can be achieved, it will help with the American psyche for sure.

Now John McCain is saying it’s “possible’ he’ll be showing up to the debate with Barack Obama in Mississippi. I wonder what shade of lipstick he was wearing when he said that? If he really wants to be a POW hero, then he should get his ass to the debate, buck up, and stop playing games! Stop gaming the system, asshole! Take your George-Bush-charlatan-hat off for crying out loud!  Spit.
