McCain Showed True 'Leadership'

Well, well, well.


Let's see, last Sat. evening  political leaders discuss the so called 'bail out plan'. Guess where Mr McCain is during this crucial discussion. At one of the finest establishments in DC, having a double date dinner with Mrs. McCain,  Sen. Lieberman and his wife. It must have been a great meal.


Now, is that how you show true leadership? And today he has the nerve to accuse Obama of not showing leadership, but rather standing at the sidelines at this critical moment....


And I know, there are some who do not like the source of this link, but it doesn't mean it's not true.

McCain blames Democrats for bailout defeat

Posted by Foon Rhee, deputy national political editor September 29, 2008 03:27 PM

John McCain responded to the defeat of the bailout bill with a stinging attack on Democratic rival Barack Obama and his congressional allies.

“From the minute John McCain suspended his campaign and arrived in Washington to address this crisis, he was attacked by the Democratic leadership: Senators Obama and Reid, Speaker Pelosi and others. Their partisan attacks were an effort to gain political advantage during a national economic crisis. By doing so, they put at risk the homes, livelihoods and savings of millions of American families," senior policy adviser Doug Holtz-Eakin said in a statement.

“Barack Obama failed to lead, phoned it in, attacked John McCain, and refused to even say if he supported the final bill. Just before the vote, when the outcome was still in doubt, Speaker Pelosi gave a strongly worded partisan speech and poisoned the outcome. This bill failed because Barack Obama and the Democrats put politics ahead of country.”
