OK, class. Let's review.
The Democratic majority of the House of Representatives under their leadership lined up 2/3's of their members to save Republican Prez Dubya Bush's hide and Wall Street's criminal negligence of our financial system. Despite the cooperation of the Republican leadership of the House, because of the unexpectedly low support by REPUBLICAN REPRESENTATIVES, the BAILOUT bill FAILED.
As you know, the Republican Nominee for President of the United States, Sen. McCain, tried to make us believe, in the first TV debate last Thursday, that only he has the experience and judgment to lead America forward. He kept repeating (a broken record comes to mind, or a scratched CD) that his opponent, "Just doesn't get it..."
So what was McCain's immediate public judgment about HIS party's failure to pass the bailout bill?
McCain declared the bailout bill failed to pass the US House of Representatives due to Sen. Obama's failure to lead.
(Can you say a little more about that, Sen. McCain? 'Cause, speaking frankly, I'm not sure what alternate reality you're living in!)
Remember, now, class, according to Sen. McCain, the Republican nominee, the fundamentals of our economy are sound.
God and our fellow voters - save us from this man who will say absolutely anything he believes will get him elected!
