??? clip 1 said that tax payers should not take the burden of the payment to AIG. clip 2 said that the customers and employees should not take the burden of the debt of the company flopping. They should not lose all of their insurance and retirement. he doesn’t agree with the taxpayers paying for it, but agrees that the customers should not feel the pain of the loss. duh ---

I could care less if McCain changes his mind every day from now until the election on everything he has ever said, he is still a better choice than Obama. ---

McCain is right, the only problem is that the only way to bail us out is to use federal funds, the biggest problem I have with him is that he isn’t saying let’s set regulatory practices to prevent this from happening again. Bush repealed this act (wish I knew off top of my head what it was called) in 1999 that was passed right after the great depression. ---
