McCain Financial Crisis Flip Flops - ABC News on
Uploaded by: DemRapidResponse
Video Description:
CHARLIE GIBSON: And with apologies for our technical difficulties, we're going to turn back to the difficult economy, and the way the presidential candidates are dealing with it, particularly John McCain. Here's David Wright.
DAVID WRIGHT: John McCain was against the government bailout of AIG, before he was reluctantly for it. Here he was yesterday on "Today."
JOHN MCCAIN: We cannot bail AIG or anybody else. We have to work through it.
WRIGHT: Asked about the same topic today on "Good Morning America" -
MCCAIN: I don't think anybody I know wanted to do that. But there are literally millions of people whose retirement, whose investments, whose insurance were at risk here. And they were going to have their lives destroyed.
WRIGHT: Senator McCain appears to have changed his tune on regulation in a fundamental way. Today on the stump, he's a champion of reigning in Wall Street with tough regulations.
MCCAIN: We're going to put an end to the reckless conduct, corruption and greed that have caused a crisis on Wall Street.
WRIGHT: But for more than 25 years in the Senate, McCain has fashioned himself as a champion of smaller government, less regulation.
MCCAIN: I am less government, less regulation, lower taxes, et cetera.

I join as a cosponsor of the Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005, S. 190, to underscore my support for quick passage of GSE regulatory reform legislation. If Congress does not act, American taxpayers will continue to be exposed to the enormous risk that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac pose to the housing market, the overall financial system, and the economy as a whole.
I urge my colleagues to support swift action on this GSE reform legislation.
The fact is that McCain fought for reform of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. If these reforms passed, we would not be in as big a mess as we are in now.
His own political party in control and YET he COULD NOT GET IT DONE as a Senator.
Incompetence shouldn't be rewarded with a Promotion.
If he couldn't get things done before, this just proves he is NOT worthy of being President.
Remember 1999 when he voted FOR the deregulation that helped ruined the economy, why didn't he have the foresight, and judgement to NOT vote for that 1999 Bill that helped CAUSE this nightmare.
have ruined this country. McCain=BUSH III.
Good Job KinGeorge/MISSION ACCOMPLISHED.
We've already killed more than a million Iraq's and funneled over a trillion dollars out of the tax payers towards companies like Halliburton.
Time for it to stop!
