Controversial Issues

I cannot believe McCain said, "let the banks fail". What kind of person is he? Doesn't he realize that if this did happen, our country, the USA, would crumble down like a deck of cards or a stack of dominoes. Sure, the banks really made a serious mistake when so much money was lent out to unqualified borrowers, but on the other hand, people like Madoff stole from our government under the cloak of a white collar crime and you know what, he will probably get away. This is the sad part.



But McCain, who is already a multimillionaire will not feel the effects of a staggering economy. He and his wife Cindy are exceptionally wealthy so in actuality, he will not feel the effects such as the hard working, blue collar workers, and other people in our nation who are living from paycheck to paycheck. McCain cannot even identify with these people and never will. As for me, I am lo0king for the long term effects on our nation. Obama had to do something and as far as I am concerned, no one had a better idea. He had to do something.



I am retired military and I was even planning on voting for McClain but now I definitely have reservations and am content that I did vote for Obama. I really wanted McClain to win, ex-military, long time politician, served our country with honor, and many other accolades that he deserves. However, I think his comment was inappropriate and really, he is no better than that lunatic, Russ Limbaugh!!
