Palin Tries to Rescue McCain on the Economy »
Posted By capj71 1 year, 4 months ago in NewsSarah Palin ran to rescue of John McCain and his comments about the economy during part one of her interview with Sean Hannity which will air tonight. She said that Democrats are unfairly attacking McCain for saying that the fundamentals of the economy are strong, because what he really meant was the workers, but let's look at his record towards workers.

Why should she rescue Obama's opponent on just the economy? Why stop there?
Reply
Tina Fey's lookalike should try to rescue Obama's opponent on all the topics that plague our nation, as he seems to have some trouble understanding most of them...
But as far as the economy goes, tho, Obama's opponent has said several times in the past 11 months that he is not in favor of regulation in general by the government, but now he says that maybe regulation is needed in the financial area.
Here's a life-long opponent of regulation in every area now saying he's in favor of regulation in some form for the economy and financial areas.
Which do we believe? Is he changing his mind because he believes in his heart that regulation is good, or is he saying this now with the hopes of winning over people because we think he's out of touch and doesn't have the slightest idea of how to handle the economy?
Tell us, John... -

Another gaffe by Paline. It's either that or the stock beauty contestant answer made up of "pleasing" stock phrases that say absolutely nothing. It's obvious she doesn't even KNOW what economic fundamentals are, and on top of it, she is trying to CORRECT McCAIN? This woman's arrogance knows no bounds.

Get this. Palin says: "It was an unfair attack on the VERBIAGE that Senator McCain chose to use"
Reply
Verbiage is defined as "speech or writing that uses too many words or excessively technical expressions"
I guess a simple sentence that says "the fundamentals of the economy are strong" is too complex fro Palin. She then goes on to prove it by completely missing the actual definition of "economic fundamentals" I guess that "the economy" really just refers to how we "feel about the the state of the nation" We should have faith and ignore all the economic indicators. Even Greenspan says McCain is a disaster waiting to happen. And if there is one man who knows economic disasters it's Greenspan. -

IT is Obama's campgain advisors DUH that headed Fannie Mae and Freddie mac, mismanaged it and tanked so now the Taxpayers bail out this crazy agency. Hello I was a loan officer. I saw the mismanagment. No money down loans to people with little substansiatied credit, and cash out loans up to 100 percent of equity, as well as interest only loan payments, and no oversight of questionable appraisals that overinflated house values. All of these greedy loopholes to push more loans were a prescription for foreclosure for millions but they gave the money out anyway as it was making them rich. Obama's so called Advisors are getting their companies bailed out and they were very directly responsible for mismanagment that resulted in this housing crisis.

Of course it wasn't deregulation of our financial sector that allowed mortgage companies, banks and financial institutions the leaway to their acquisition of greedy profits. Which, by the way, was implemented by a Republican controlled Congress with the approval of our "deregulation" president. Go back to school and try to learn facts and not Fox News spin.

there is no rescuing McCain when it comes to the economy.
Reply
he's a self-proclaimed de-regulator who believes in the horribly failed chicago school stupidity of trickle down economics.
and here he is taking an economics question from ron paul during a GOP debate:

within two seconds its clear that McCain has absolutely no idea what Paul is talking about.-

Over 26 years, McCain voted over and over again for deregulation. Put another way, it left the 'movers and shakers' without oversight from government to protect the American people from being scammed. My gawd. If people can't see after the S & L mess, Enron, bank meltdowns, the mortgage crises, and the coming credit meltdown that republicans have made an absolute mess of things, then they deserve what more they get.

If people can overlook the fact that Neil Bush stole $billions from Silverado Savings & Loan and only had to pay back $50,000 which was given to him by his supporters, and then went on to vote for his brother, George Bush, not once but twice, it is not surprising to see that America is getting dumber not smarter.

The fundamentals?... oh, those fundamentals, I thought you were talking about something else and not those 50,000 workers that have lost their jobs on Wallstreet.

It's not socialism that is bailing out those thieving bankers, it's their "capitalist, market forces" cheerleading cronies in government that have enabled them to keep collecting very big wellfare checks every so often.
"Spend and Borrow Like No Tomorrow", is an old Republican credo since Reagan. -
