In a time when banks are failing, the FDIC is talking about borrowing from the Treasury to make up in insurance shortfalls (Tom Brown and Vernon K. Hill notwithstanding), and underwriting standards on just about every type of loan except those guaranteed by cash collateral are tougher than a Kelly Wells double anal scene, why has no one mentioned the name Charles Keating, and the fact that McCain helped to bring about the Resolution Trust Corporation and the biggest wave of bank failures ever in the United States--over 2,000-- when, as a Congressman, he personally lobbied the Office of Thrift Supervision to loosen bank examination standards on Lincoln Savings; right after Charlie Keating handed him a pile of campaign money?

He has shit on just about everyone he ever befriended in Arizona politics: Mo Udall, Barry Goldwater, John Rhodes, Bob Stump, Todd Gozinski, Grant Woods, Pat Murphy, the list goes on and on...

As an example of his "statesmanship," JohnnyMac once brought a New York Times reporter to Walter Reed Hospital to meet Mo Udall. Udall was a Democrat in this enormously conservative state, but worked with Republicans Carl Hayden and Barry Goldwater to fund the canal system which basically keep me and my state alive. By this time, Udall was dying of Parkinsons Disease, but that didn't stop JohnnyMac from trying to wake the dying Udall for five minutes so he could say something nice about him in front of a national reporter.

Something's rotten in the State of Denmark.
