My comments are as follows:

1. First, Chill out! Did you take your purple pill?!
If not, do it!

2. ''Tied to'' equates to ''associated with'' which is an accurate and fair description! He worked with the bank, got it?!

3. You assert ''no McCain has anything to do with the banks problems''! HEY! He sat on the Board of Director''s Audit Cmte. responsible for oversight of accounting! THAT makes him involved, mister!

4. YOU CAN''T possibly know whether he''s guilty of wrongdoing or not! And you''re not his legal representative either, so you''re not speaking for him.

5. Posters are speaking THEIR opinions! CBS didn''t put a gun to our heads and order us to say anything!

6. CBS reported it because it''s NEWS! And that''s what news sources DO! They report news, N-E-W-S!

7. If sponsors saw it your way, they will; if not, they won''t! I don''t think they do!

8. McCain has NOT been slandered. He''s not involved with the bank, keep your shorts on!

9. The vast majority of posters aren''t going to be swayed by these FACTS! If someone is voting against McSAME it''s for a bunch of other reasons!

10. Fortunately, we idiots are allowed to vote!

11. As represented by your tantrum, I''d say YOU''RE the threat to national security, not us swine posters!

12. Hey, I didn''t get a flag! And, what socialist rally? Nobody ever tells me about these meetings!

Take a pill, settle down, it''ll be alright!

My..oh..my. How do you know "no McCain has anything to do do with that banks problems". I will sure trust CBS'' investigations more than I do anyone who would defend the liars and crooks that this country has endured for almost 8 years. If someone else doesn''t soon take over there won''t be anything of this country left to fight over. We will be like those other 3rd world countries that we keep sending money while our own people are getting s-r-w-d.

So, what else is new? The media is pro Osama-BinBiden and they''ll do ANYTHING to feed on the DNC and other lesser dumb bells.

I can''t imagine anyone supporting any Republican today considering the mess that this administration has put working people in, and as for that loud mouth that wants to be McCains partner in crime. Like she says.....the only difference in her and crooked Cheney is she wears lipstick and he wears a permanent sneer. They says the Dems don''t have experience to run this country....well maybe they won''t try to destroy what is left. That isn''t much.

I guess the reason Andrew McCain left his job at the bank in July was to go fight "God''s War" (quote Sarah Palin) in Iraq.

This is strangely similar to the failing of Silverado Savings & Loan and ties to Neil Bush, George HW Bush''''s son, back in the 80''''s!
Everything old is new again!

STOP squawking, crybaby! NOBODY has gotten more of a ''free ride'' over the last 14 years than the GOP and Bush Cheney!

You supporters of these crooks gripe because you would have none of the GOP corruption, perversion, and irresponsibility reported!

Well, THAT''s NOT going to happen! The news media can''t turn a blind-eye to all RethugliCON blunders and mistakes!

The solution is obvious: your party leaders should stop breaking the law, think, and make less mistakes and blunders! If they do that, than the media won''t have bad stuff to report about them!!

I hope McCain is proud of his son''s fine accomplishments in Nevada. Run a bank into the ground and bail out before he has to face the music. There is an example of "family values" for you. Serves his father proud.

"Hensley & Co., the beer distributorship of which Cindy McCain is chairwoman"


And when is Cindy McCain going to release her FULL tax returns? not some edited version for the last year or two?

Don''t we deserve to know what pays John McCain''s bills? He''s totally owned by Cindy, and if John wants to be president, he really owes it to the US to disclose his wife''s financial dealings?

What''s the secret?
