After that beatdown, today's headline? "McCain wants to use bailout money to buy up bad mortgages"
On Yahoo! News right now. Even they somehow found a way to spin last night's debacle for McLoser. So much for the lib'rul high-tech industry. :eyes:

Besides, if this is really such a brilliant idea, why didn't he get Congress to put it in the Bush/Paulson bailout package? Isn't that why he suspended* his campaign to go up there? And haven't the mortgages already been sold to various sleazy operators, who have sliced 'n' diced them into the dreaded "mortgage-backed securities"? I hear that many people don't even know who owns their own mortgages any more. So who, exactly, is McLoser going to buy them from? :eyes:

3. Then how is it McCain's plan, and "not Pres. Bush's. Not Sen. Obama's"?
I mean, really, do you actually think McLoser would lie to us??? He was a POW, you know! :eyes:

6. he wants to take credit for it.
did you notice last night he said he had suspended his campaign to go back to washington? i wish obama would have said "yes john, you were there -- but you had nothing to say".
