Ok neocons, me brainy no workie so good, so I'm gonna need your help on this one-
Every time someone brings up McCain's involvement with Charles Keating, you immediately whip back with "HE WAS COMPLETELY CLEARED OF ANY WRONGDOING SO !!!!!" He was part of the Keating 5, he was investigated, and out of the five, he was given the lightest slap on the wrist. 3 of them were determined to have interfered with the investigation or assisting Keating directly, and Keating himself served 5 years for the corruption and mismanagement of Lincoln. Now, because McCain was "cleared" we're not supposed to make any character judgments on him about it.
Now, 30-somehting years after Bill Ayers allegedly partakes in terrorist planning which he was never charged with, he sponsors a dinner for Obama's state senate campaign, and they work together on the board of an educational CHARITY. 2 facets which have NOTHING to do with Ayers wrongdoing years earlier - but Obama is nailed to the cross for it.
I don't get it -McCain was directly involved in the questionable activity, but cleared. Obama has no need to be cleared becasue his involvement with Ayers was completely benign, and many years later.

What kind of logic is this????
LOGIC? You expect logic?
Hold on to your laptop...
1) McCain in his own book admits he was part of the "KEATING FIVE" fiasco, and was WRONG for his ethical violations;
2) Palin chastises Obama for sitting through a minister's nonsensical sermons, while IGNORING BEING EXORCISED BY HER WITCH-DOCTOR Minister Thomas Muthee and claiming as a Pentecostal that she believes "END OF DAYS" will happen soon;
3) Palin chastises Obama about an Ayers character who did HIS actions when OBAMA was only 8 years old and as an adult has said Ayers was wrong; WHILE PALIN as an ADULT has vigorously supported, and her husband formally joined as well, the SECESSIONIST MOVEMENT of the Alaska Independence Party---She also gave them aid and comfort as recently as six months ago for their AIG convention (check YouTube)---Even Abraham Lincoln had to fight a Civil War to prevent such secessionist treason activities when States tried to leave the U.S. Union;
4) McCain still has the FANNIE MAE and FREDDIE MAC lobbyists running his campaign---THEY ARE PURSUING THE VERY FAILED POLICIES of his old Savings and Loan BILLIONS of dollars fiasco and NOW HIS ADVOCATED CONTINUED failed economic policies for the current financial, bank and mortgage TRILLION dollar meltdown.

You're right Elwood, you don't get it. Ayres WAS charged with it but got away on a technicality. I don't know about you but I WOULD NOT sit at the same table with a KNOWN terrorist. In fact I would do my level best to inflict bodily harm if I thought Id get away with it.
Ask the traitor Obama, he is the one that brought Keating up in the first place.

Well... labeling someone a 'traitor' who obviously is not and has performed otherwise seems pretty anti-American to me... just sayin'
