The first link is a story about how CBS forced McCain to pull his ad down because they were misleadingly using Katie Couric’s statement.
OH SNAP!!!
The second link is Huckabee saying it was just a phrase and he felt Obama meant nothing by it… the third is a link to John McCain using the phrase YET AGAIN himself!
He has become a little absent-minded. Please forgive him.
John McCain surely forgets a lot. I think he’s getting quite old now. And of course when that happens you start to forget things. You know.
I guess he was FOR using the ‘lipstick on a pig’ phrase BEFORE he was AGAINST it – when using it on Hillary’s plan for healthcare.
If there is anything that is evidence that John McCain is JUST PLAIN LYING about working constructively across the aisle, this in fact is it. He is criticizing in a personal way, directly, Hillary Clinton’s attempt to put together a health care plan for Americans.
I guess he was FOR attacking others with good ideas BEFORE he was AGAINST it too.
John McCain & Sarah Palin. They say whatever comes into their heads (which is obviously not much.

The Glass Steagall Act President Roosevelt signed into law was repealed. See who swept aside the banking firewall protections on the 12th of November 1999.
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLBA), also known as the Financial Services Modernization Act of 1999, is an act of the 106th United States Congress (1999-2001), signed into law by President Clinton which repealed part of the Glass-Steagall Act of 1933, opening up the market among banking companies, securities companies and insurance companies. The Glass-Steagall Act prohibited any one institution from acting as any combination of an investment bank, a commercial bank, and/or an insurance company.
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act allowed commercial banks, investment banks, securities firms and insurance companies to consolidate.

CONGRESSMAN CARNEY HAS NO SYMPATHY FOR THOSE WITH HEALTH SAVINGS ACCOUNTS AND HIGH DEDUCTIBLE HEALTH POLICIES.
Duration : 0:7:12
Former President Bill Clinton responded to comments made by fellow former President Jimmy Carter about criticism to President Obama, on “Larry King Live.”
“I believe that some of the right wing extremists which oppose President Obama are also racially prejudiced, and prefer not to have an African-American President,” Clinton said, but did not say that all of the right wing share that view. “We should disaggregate lingering problems of discrimination from the attacks,” he said.
Clinton also said that while he didn’t think Carter was wrong to share his views, he’s “exceedingly sensitive” being a “white Southerner.”
