Keating 5 and John McCain
John McCain is not Lilly white when it comes to fraud in the banking industry here in America. Did you know that the number “Five” in the "Keating 5" is the number of U.S. Senators including John McCain involved in the Savings and Loan crisis a few years back? John McCain was a close friend to Charles Keating of Lincoln Savings and Keating courted the Senator like a wolf on a hunt to protect his own ass. It turns out that John McCain did not have to be hunted, he went directly to the wolves den. Not just once but multiple times. That den was alpha male run by Charles Keating. Corruption, deception, and accounting fraud was something that John McCain not once spoke up against. John McCain participated on a fraud on the banking system in America and said nothing! Apparently bank fraud was not a problem for him when lavished and dotted over by Charles Keating.
This video is a bit long but full of information for you to think about. When Lincoln Savings went under it wasn’t the millionaires that lost their savings. It was regular folks in America that could not afford it. And still John McCain did NOTHING! Check out the video…

So are we to trust John McCain when we have to bail out Wall Street today to the tune of $700 Billion after McCain’s $3.4 Billion dollar ignorance and refusal to stand up for America when he was in fact part of the Savings and Loan markets collapse just a few years back? John McCain was cited by the Congress for an ethics violation in the Keating case.
Voting your wallet or pocket book seem so much more important when you have a Senator that already has stolen the life savings of hundreds of thousands of Mid Westerners through Charles Keating and all that Senator John McCain got for it was a slap on the wrist! Trust is a very large part of American politics and how often do you leave your wallet out once you have been stolen from? Ya DON'T!
Vote your wallet!

We all have skeletons in our past. McCain, through Palin’s attacks this weekend, made these kind of things inevitable. Keating and G. Gordon Liddy, two convicted felons, are just the tip of the iceberg of McCain’s friendships. http://straighttalkonmccain.blogspot.com
I think that it is one thing to have a few skeletons in your closet but McCain has the whole cemetary!!! LOL!
