Scared to Debate?
John McCain has proposed “suspending” the campaign and cancelling Friday’s scheduled debate to “concentrate on the economy.”
Problem is, he’s spent almost no time doing his job as a Senator since the campaign started.
Chris Dodd, on the Rachel Maddow Show, said he hadn’t seen “hide nor hair” of John McCain while Congress has been busy trying to agree on a bailout plan to the tune of some $700 billion dollars. McCain has spent the least amount of time in the Senate, a job he is still collecting a taxpayer-footed paycheck for, of anyone outside of Tim Johnson, who nearly died last year.
Among the things McCain did not find important enough to suspend his campaigning for: the Webb GI bill, which was the biggest chunk of “Support the Troops” legislation to make it through Congress this year. Also, the economic stimulus package, which fell one vote short of the 60 votes necessary to stop debate. READ THE REST
I also have had some fun with Tumblr. And of course, Twitter (available in sidebar).
