About Me

My photo
Atlanta, GA, United States
Born and raised on Manhattan's upper Westside with psychoanalysis as our religion & the Broadway theater as our church... Mom was a professional musician with "Phil Spitalny and His All-Girl Orchestra," the model for "SOME LIKE IT HOT." She slapped the bass! Daddy came to NYC to be an opera singer. Instead, he became an architect, carving out his niche as the creator of "wedding palaces!" Like my parents, I married someone totally different from myself & when we celebrate our wedding anniversary, no one is more stunned & delighted than we are! We have 2 married sons enjoying their diverse careers. We share our dream home with a cat and a retired racing greyhound. Jim continues his "ultra" running and I continue pumping iron. Life is good.

A Clear Pattern of Dangerously Poor Judgment

"Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it!"
And repeat it. And repeat it.
How many of us weren't old enough (or are too distracted) to remember, Sen. McCain's participation in the notorious "Keating 5" group of senators who took bribes to support & protect the kingpin of the Savings & Loan meltdown of 1990?
Watch this gripping documentary and in about 13 minutes you will revisit this then-stunning financial catastrophe (I mean, we were only talking $million$ then).
You will also hear how little Sen. McCain has learned since then, leading him to make the unrealistic pronouncements on the current state of our economy!
Just click here: "KEATING 5"
