McCain wants to cut spending AND buy up all the bad mortgages?

[Lex]

:wtf:

How's that work, gramps?

[rurallib]

1. cut medicare and social security.

[Frisbee]

2. and cut taxes...

so we can all pay less on the income we would have earned if we had jobs. And get Sarah down from the pesty 16% bracket to the 10% bracket. You betcha!

[Lex]

6. he's just nuts

[Frisbee]

7. That's the nicest way I've heard it put in a long time!

You must be a really nice person, I call him batshit crazy. :rofl:

[defendandprotect]

3. Noticed he gave no fure on those mortgages ...

[Left Is Write]

4. Instead of just cutting Medicare and Medicaid, he'll eliminate them altogether.

He'll toss out social security while he's at it.

5. Excuse me, but isn't that what the bail out plan just did? n/t

[Lex]

8. Nope, I don't think so.

[Virginia Dare]

16. Not buying the actual mortgages..

just the mortgage backed securities, but I think he's basically embracing an idea that is inevitable. It's not really a radical plan, just necessary. Maybe he was desensitizing the repub base to that.

9. Yeah one of the "pundits" picked up on that. Obvious disconnect. Apparently

Krauty is very displeased so that is a good thing.

[Lex]

13. good

maybe the disconnect will be discussed

[yellowcanine]

17. The analysis in the WP this morning point out that it doesn't square with McGrump's "freeze" either.

So two strikes against McGrump on that one.
Actually three, Obama campaign is saying the buyout bill already includes a plan for doing that.

[AlCzervik]

10. yes how about that, seems to make his own argument against earmarks sound um

ridiculous.

[krkaufman]

11. You and your "gotcha blogging" n/t

[Lex]

12. LOL.

Bad me!

[Mz Pip]

14. I don't believe him

It's that simple. I just don't believe him. This was just another "Hail Mary Pass". He'll say anything to get votes at this point. It's too damn late.

[Lex]

15. I believe you are right. He'll say anything at this point.
