<<That same cte burned the other four worse , all four of them Democrats.>>
plane, I just don't think Joe Six-Pack gives a shit about the other four or the Chairman, this all happened in the Mesozoic Era. The only reason Joe's concerned is that one of the dinosaurs is still around and running for President.
<<Americans know what Democrats are willing to do to Republicans , this is exactly like getting a clean honesty chit from your opposition team.>>
Not when McCain is always boasting about his famous "bipartisanship," how many friends he has on the other side of the aisle. And it didn't hurt that he was caught with his pants down in the presence of four other Democrats. It was obviously not the Committee Chairman's desire to damage four of his own party just to crucify McCain. So whattaya gonna do? Let the four Democrats walk and crucify the sole Republican? They took the obvious way out - - a slap on the wrist for everyone, with some minor distinctions between the offenders just to show it wasn't a big rubber stamp.
But honestly, plane, I really don't think that Joe Six-Pack is gonna analyze it all that closely. Tell him that the Senate Ethics Ctee. gave McCain a pass, and the likeliest response would be along the lines of fuck the ethics committee, WTF do they know, buncha fuckin crooks, OF COURSE they give the guy a pass, he just was unlucky enought to get caught and they've all done worse themselves.
<<Lets see Obama do so well with his Rezco relationship , did he ever give the house back?>>
Rezco and Keating are a wash, even though Keating was a much bigger crook and ruined a lot more people. IMHO, people don't give a shit about Rezko but Keating and the Keating Five are famous. Everyone can understand what Keating did, Rezko's narrative is more complicated and evidence of wrongdoing not so dramatic. He wasn't - - as far as I know - - stealing people's life savings on a massive scale. He did not have five U.S. Senators on his payroll.
