McCain is mocking the fundraiser held in California for Obama:
You knew it was coming, even though it took John McCain all day to get to it.
But in an airplane hanger here, reunited with running mate Sarah Palin and in front of a boisterous crowd, McCain pointed out that Democratic rival Barack Obama’s hard-edged comments about McCain and the economy came “just before he flew off to Hollywood for a fundraiser with Barbra Streisand.”
For his part, McCain said, “Let me tell you, friends, there’s no place I’d rather be than here with the hard-working men and women of Ohio.”
The $5.1 million McCain raised Monday night at a swank Miami hotel is apparently a distant memory.
The cynicism of the Republicans just never stops, does it? While the government is taking over ginormous businesses which are failing in large part due to the efforts of McCain and the Republican party, making taxholders responsible for hundreds of billions, John McCain is on the dole for another $84 million of taxpayer money, which he is using to mock private efforts to finance a political campaign.
That is right, the guy who gets thousands of dollars a month from the government for his disability and his service in the military (money I do not for one second begrudge him, btw), is married into millions of someone elses money, who has the best health care that OUR money can buy, draws a yearly salary that you and I pay, is partially responsible for the hundreds of billions we are now on the hook for regarding the subprime mess, who wants to continue the fiscally irresponsible management of George Bush, and who just took near 100 million more from you and me to finance his campaign, is mocking the private financing of a campaign.
Fiscal conservatism. What a fucking racket.
