Will the McPalin Campaign Ask Carly Fiorina to Give Her $42 Million Back?
John McCain promises he'll stop CEOs who have broken the public trust from getting golden parachutes. Seems to me he can start that policy right at home with his campaign--with Carly Fiorina, who got $42 million dollars to walk away from HP. Will he ask her to give that money back?
John McCain Still Living The Keating Five Lush Highlife
/
bmazJohn McCain was never the principled steadfast man his false front public image painted him to be; although it is true that he really has been in a downward spiral of dishonor and deception during this year's campaign. Even many of his staunchest supporters in major media are starting to realize the brutal truth for what it is. The story of John McCain's 70th birthday bash in the exotic waters of Montenegro with lobbyists and con men should serve to remind them them the John McCain that was Charlie Keating's political leverage boy in Congress is the same exact John McCain under the thumb of lobbyists and political influence peddlers today.

bmazWeek 2 is upon us, football is really back, and the big games are really starting to be played now. The first weekend you are just glad to have the pigskin back in the air, you don't care that the games are usually not that good. That is not the case for Week 2 though, there are huge games on tap. Let's belly up to the bar then.
