Equal Slime
In the name of equal, uh, time; since I've posted blog items about both of the Dimocrats today, it's only fair that I put up a link to what a sleazebag McCain is. Here, from a guy who was blogging in back cave days, and looks like it, too (and I mean that in the nicest of ways)...Ken Layne on John McCain's Long Career Of Sleazy Lies, Semi-Affairs & Total Corruption:
While Grandpa Straight Talk was running for the presidency in 2000, all his aides were going nuts because he was constantly traveling with a good-looking lobbyist gal who was, at the time, in her early thirties.Whether or not McCain and Vicki Iseman were having sexytime on the corporate jets he used to fly around the country, McCain did do the bidding of Iseman’s clients.
At this point, he had barely cleared his name from the Keating Five Savings & Loan scandal.
In one of his few acknowledgments that the Arizona senator has ever been to Arizona, McCain made a point of not flying direct from National Airport to Phoenix because he had some part in opening up that commercial air route — but because he always flies in luxury private jets provided by the Corporates, it didn’t much inconvenience him.McCain helped launch some campaign-ethics group, but the group ended up doing the exact same corrupt things it was supposedly against, so he quit in shame.
Corrupt banker/developer Charles Keating was, obviously, an immediate supporter of McCain’s long congressional career. Keating showered dirty money and fancy vacations on McCain, who loves all that shit.
Then McCain tried to get the government off the back of Keating’s failing corrupt Lincoln Savings and Loan, because McCain really wants to get government off the backs of his corrupt millionaire friends.
McCain got caught, but somehow clung to his senate seat.
But McCain can still pretend to “wince” at the memory of getting caught, so who cares if the bailout cost American taxpayers $3.4 billion?
He also got caught having a big lobbyist fund-raising deluxe luxury fancy party in 2000. So he ran and hid like a little girl.
Lobbyists control his entire miserable, corrupt life.
He loves lobbyists, both in the figurative and literal sense, because he was probably screwing that one lobbyist.
And when the lobbyists need a quick letter to the FCC or whatever to help their clients, John Maverick McCain is always quick to help, the end.
