To McCain & Rubber-stamp Republicans: “You have no excuse.”
I voted for McCain once. Never, ever again:
When Jean Diamond asked Sen. John McCain a polite but tough question about federal spending last weekend, McCain turned churlish.McCain can be charmingly funny. But I'd pay a dollar right now to know whether anyone laughed at that last crack."I'm not getting anything I really need and my grandchildren are getting saddled with $9 trillion in debt," said Diamond, a Keene retiree. "Why should I vote Republican?"
Because, McCain replied, Democrats have also voted to increase federal spending."Maybe," the Arizona Republican suggested, "you should vote for the vegetarians."
Diamond was not amused by McCain's sarcasm. "Republicans are in charge of three Houses," she snapped back. "You have no excuse."
McCain shook his head. "Yes, ma'am," he said, peering at the 500 people gathered at the town meeting. "I knew we should have cut this thing off."
