| Aiemond said: Depends on how well it sticks. This guy has been talked about before. Plus, Obama's not a terrorist. He was on a board with a college professor (who was an anti war terrorist in the 60s). Its not like its generally known he was a terrorist. Not something you tell to a general acquaintance. Edit: and if we are going to make that strick, all Obama has to bring up is the Keating five.
"McCain became enmeshed in a scandal during the 1980s as one of five United States Senators comprising the so-called "Keating Five".[89] Between 1982 and 1987, McCain had received $112,000 in lawful[90] political contributions from Charles Keating Jr. and his associates at Lincoln Savings and Loan Association, along with trips on Keating's jets[89] that McCain belatedly repaid two years later.[91] In 1987, McCain was one of the five senators from whom Keating contacted in order to prevent the government's seizure of Lincoln, and McCain met twice with federal regulators to discuss the government's investigation of Lincoln" From wikipedia. He was aquited, but if you are going to play "association" games, McCain is just as "dirty". And this is about economics, it will stick much more than the one on Obama. |
Or Jack Abramoff...one of the worst lobbyists in history.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
