McCain Pallin' Around with Economic Terrorist
McCain is trying hard to tie Obama to William Ayers, and by association paint Obama as a terrorist sympathizer. In reality, McCain regularly associates with a more dangerous man, Phil Gramm, an economic terrorist.
Gramm and his deregulation policies have done far more damage to the American public than the Weather Underground ever did. Gramm was front and center in the savings and loan deregulation fiasco. Gramm also introduced the "Enron Loophole," effectively under the cover of darkness. His role in that legislation wiped out the life savings of thousands of Americans.
Yet McCain will not respond to the question of whether this economic terrorist will serve in his administration, a black mark against his judgment.
