I assume that he will be giving the names of the democrats tomorrow, like Chris Dodd, Charles Schumer, Barney Frank, and the wonderful people that donated money to them.
Perhaps after he’s done with all the Washington lobbyists that work for McCain, he can list all the state lobbyists that work for Obama doing the same thing…
crookstonm, that list would take several weeks, not just a few days like this one is taking …
Notice that Barney Frank is one of the big ‘receivers’ of Fannie Mae and he is on the Senate Finance Committee and said there was no problem last year. Can we say, “Vested interest?”
The whole point was that McCain is the one who bragged about eliminating the influence of lobbyists. He wasn’t able to do it. But he is still campaigning as if he had really done that. If he doesn’t admit that, then he is lying.
Fun fact:
The top four recipients of campaign contributions from Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae PACs are in decreasing order: Christopher Dodd $133,900, John Kerry $111,000, Barack Obama $105,849, and Hillary Clinton $75,500.
BD is a great character. He is heroic, tragic and flawed. He’s one of the Doonesburys best characters and his staunch republicanism is proof that Trudeau isnt all about Republican bashing. He bashes stupidity in all its forms. I can recall many times in the past when the Democrates were bashed just as well.
I can’t see how BD maintains his “staunch republicanism” after losing a leg in Iraq. I believe his breakdown was more due to shattered ideals than the loss of a limb.
Probably so, on that limb. The injury might have been better for him if he had been in president Johnson’s Vietnam. I suppose they had to “get rid of” Kennedy in order to get a real warhorse on the throne; same party. Go figure.
G.B. Trudeau’s Doonesbury is currently in its thirty-ninth year, tracking its eighth presidential administration. Trudeau maintains his studio in New York and his Web presence at www.doonesbury.com.

Thieves, Pharisees and tax collectors, the lot of them, both parties! All politicians and lawyers should be taken out and hung so we could start over.

I suspect that like auto race sponsors, they will sponsor as many drivers as possible so that who ever wins will be wearing their brand.
