John McCain on Ocuppy Wall Street: I Understand Their Concerns

John McCain feels their pain.

Raw sewer: An unidentified man seen defecates on a NYPD patrol car in downtown Manhattan (Daily Mail)

Useful idiot John McCain spoke out in favor of the dirty fornicating socialist radicals trashing New York City today.
The Politico reported, via Free Republic:

The Occupy Wall Street movement is getting sympathy from an unlikely person: Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.).

The 2008 GOP presidential nominee said he understands the growing protest movement’s concerns over Washington bailouts of major financial institutions…

…He later quipped that he may be the “only” Republican who does.

John McLame, Stealth Democrat.

I have nothing but respect for his military service, nothing but contempt for his maverick shenanigans as replacement Senator for Barry Goldwater.

I certainly am not ashamed that I voted for McLame in 2008 considering the alternative IS well on the way to destroying the Republic and freedom across the world.

I just wish that there had been not quite so much “Lesser of Two Evils”, but we got dealt a crap hand.

And to think, this guy was the Republican candidate in 2008.

What’s more dismaying is that the Republican Party is flirting with the prospect of fielding yet another McCain-like dipstick in the form of Mitt Romney as their candidate in 2012.

Why, oh why don’t these people ever learn?

I do not agree with the protestors, but there is one point to be made. The big banks such as Goldman Sachs and the revolving door with Republican and Democrat administrations. These guys seem to go back and forth between government service and the big banks. The way to solve this though is to elect true leaders and cut those ties in Washington. If we went back to our limited constitutional government, then the bankers would not have as much influence (thanks Dodd-Durbin banking bill). The other thing is Bush should never have done TARP. Let us all be honest, a big bank or two should have failed. It would have been very painful, like a quick stab, but I think the country would have recovered quicker and been stronger for it. Now everything is too big to fail until the US Gov fails, of course I think that is the elites – Republican and Democrat plan a little Cloward-Piven anyone?

#11…how much did the people that work for these corporation pay in taxes. how much did stockholders pay in taxes on any money that they made from these businesses. to tax a business and then to tax anyone that made any money off that business is double taxation. stop with the marxists lies. the problem in this country is too much money in the hands of the politicans and not enough money in the hands of the people that worked and earned it. the politicans were suppose to serve the citizens but because of marxist tools like you the citizens now have to serve the politicans. i guess thats liberation.

I think Mayor of Lake Tahoe is about the right level of authority for Johnny. His talents are just not suitable for any higher level of decision making. He is a reliably lousy interview notorious for making statements that undercut any growing republican concensus …… http://www.laketahoenews.net/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/cole.jpg

#4 It’s moot. The alternative was Obama. He’s worse. McCain only ‘understands’ (bad enough), Obama actively foments.

“The other thing is Bush should never have done TARP.”

I would have gone a different direction – “TARP” should have been a package to allow those with a mortgage ‘rights of first refusal’ when their holder goes tango-upsilon and another investor buys for that mortgage, for say 30 cents on the dollar, the guy with the mortgage will be given 90 days notice to refinance at 31 cents on the dollar.

John McCain went out of his way to lose, WHY? He refused to even mention Obama’s middle name and even fired aides that did. Now when he ran for the Senate again, he spent 25 million just ripping J.D. Hayworth a new one, 25 million for a senate seat. He is scum that changes his spots like normal people change clothes. He is part of the ELITE class! We are on a course to nominate his clone in Romney. Everybody should really step back and look at Romney for the Elite he is. Lets not make the same mistake again, that mistake got us where we are now, anybody but Romney! Please!
