the unknown pervert Porn Jesus Registered: 03/22/07 Posts: 5186 Loc: Joshua Tree National Park	Quote: Jim, if McCain chose Palin for his VP, what kind of people will he chose for other posts, Attorney General, for example? DOJ? What kind of judges is he likely to appoint? Will he find a Sec. of State who knows what the Bush Doctrine is? Will Phil Gramm advise him on economic matters? Scary. This "maverick" stuff won't get us the change we need, it will get us Bush retread staffers making important decisions. Charlie, no ill will, hell, I don't know you. But I bet a majority of Republicans would call porners "scumbags". Think Joe Friday. We have whores, fanbois, etc. around here, so I hope you aren't too thin skinned. And yes, I've seen so many cops lie, that I don't trust them, it seems to be part of the job. -Chuck, Vegetarian fanboy Apples and oranges here. McCain needed to choose Palin to have a chance at getting elected. He won't have to name any Cabinet members until he actually wins. That will take the politics out of the positions and put competence as the main priority for filling them. _________________________ I would eat Allie Sin's asshole until I got an emotion out of her.-Jerkules

Anonymous Unregistered	I'd also like to add that the folks he nominates would have to be confirmed by a Democratic Senate. Just how many of Bush's people do you think they'll approve?

Palin was a purely tactical election move on the part of McCain, and a very good tactical move at that. It's the best tactical move in a campaign I can think of in the last 50 years or so. ... which does not mean McCain thinks any more of her than anyone else. Presidential candidates chose their running mates to win elections, nothing more. Remember that neither McCain nor Obama are setting policy, they're running a campaign. PS. I had dinner recently with a friend who is retired and lives off of investments. He said he believes in all of the Republican economic positions, he just can't afford for the Republicans to try to do it any more. _________________________ "If they can't picture me with a knife, forcing them to strip in an alley, I don't want any part of it.

JRV Porn Jesus Registered: 08/03/03 Posts: 5849 Loc: TX, USA	Quote: Mc Cain was the one who went to the Office of Thrift Supervision to ask them to relax their examination of Lincoln Savings...not to mention pocketing $100M in campaign contributions from Keating. But I thought McCain dropped the matter once told it was a criminal investigation and not merely a regulatory disagreement? It's been a long time and I may be remembering wrong. I'm pretty sure Glenn was one of the two who butted in but backed out when told what was going on (which wasn't what Keating had told them) and though McCain was the other. The other three kept on even after knowing it was a criminal investigation. I'm pretty sure the $100M number is much too high. Maybe $1M per Keating-5 member at most. House contests just don't cost that much, and this was 20+ years ago. _________________________ "If they can't picture me with a knife, forcing them to strip in an alley, I don't want any part of it.

Willie D Porn Jesus Registered: 09/20/05 Posts: 9184	^^ I'm not saying he didn't back up faster than Alan Cranston, for example, but Jonny Mac was definitely one of the ones camped outside the doors of the OTS on Keating's behalf. And the $100 grand he collected from Charlie, don't forget that covered two Congressional campaigns and his first run at the Senate. And let's not forget that McCain used to take rather lavish trips with Keating to the Bahamas, and didn't reimburse Keating until the trips became news. Or that Hensley Distributing had a very close business banking relationship with Lincoln. I don't know if you've ever seen an analysis statement on a business DDA, but Hensley was paying about 10% of what comparable accounts were being billed.
