Abramoff McCain's baby

Jack Abramoff, by all accounts, is a scoundrel, and he is proof positive John, the anointed one, McCain is not fit to be president. Why? Well, McCain created Abramoff. Were it not for John, damn I’m good, McCain’s attack on the First Amendment, aka campaign finance reform, Abramoff would have been just another K Street lawyer cheating his law firm. But because John, Hardball, McCain thinks he and other politicians are too corrupt to be trusted campaign money, people gave to Abramoff who gave to crooked politicians.

Campaign finance reform was a total disaster. Because John, yes I was one of Keating Five, McCain got caught cheating he figured, “Since I’m so good and still got caught up in the Cheating I mean Keating Five, every politician, nay every American, must be a dishonest dolt as well. After all if I got caught, how could any other American be honest?” So John, get me on Meet the Press, McCain came up with campaign finance reform. That’s sort of like Al Copone rewriting tax law.

Well what were the results of John, play that sound bite of me again, McCain’s work? Was money taken out of politics? No. There was more unregulated money used by more irresponsible groups than ever in the 2004 election. Nice work John. McCain’s lunacy had the unintended consequence of launching what are called the 527s. Brilliant John. Now instead of giving money to the regulated political parties, whakos like George Soros just become an exempt unregulated political organization themselves. You’da thought John, who’s crooked as an 8 year old boy’s path to bed on Saturday night, would have been humiliated enough by Keating to just shut the hell up. But that’s not how politicians work. Get caught robbing a bank, demand banking reform! Get caught speeding, investigate the police! Get caught taking money from scum like the ChiComs (Clinton), Keating (McCain), Abramoff (who knows), don’t apologize or better yet resign, demand campaign finance reform.

One of the fall outs from McCain, Keating, House Banking, AbScam scandals was a drive for term limits. I’ve never been a fan of that. Why should an honest guy doing a good job for the country and his voters be penalized because John, I can’t help myself, McCain is a crook? Besides we have term limits, they are called elections. And these scandals in and of themselves act a as a sort of term limit. Too bad it didn’t work in Arizona.

Real campaign finance reform:
1. Any American registered voter can give as much money to the candidate(s) of his choice as he chooses.
2. Candidates must make public all campaign contributions within 48 hours.
Too simple? Well get a team of lawyers and politicians to write the exact same policy and it'll be 150 unreadable pages by noon.
