New Web Site Reveals McCain to be "Worse than Bush"

By PA Staff Writers

Recent polls show that a growing number of voters see a potential McCain administration as pushing the same policies as George W. Bush. But a new Web site, WorseThanBush.org, created by people at the Change to Win labor federation highlights key items on McCain's agenda that would make him a worse president than Bush.

WorseThanBush.org points to McCain's health care policy, which would impose a new health care tax on employee benefits, his proposal to privatize Social Security, his opposition to fair labor laws and worker protection laws, his ties to oil companies, among other facts and policies, that would make a McCain administration "worse than Bush."

Visitors to the site can view or submit videos asking McCain questions about his stand on the issues. In one, Las Vegas hotel and casino worker Debbie Castrejon relates how the economic recession has impacted her family and how they can't afford to live in their own home.

"We're just like every other working American family," says Castrejon. To McCain, who has opposed raising the minimum wage, opposes fair labor laws, and won't expand health care to cover the uninsured, Castrejon asks, "Sen. McCain, what are you going to do to help ?"

WorseThanBush.org also features a number of video ads questioning McCain's concern for working Americans. Under the heading, "Truth Tube," viewers can find a number of video ads including the infamous "Seven" ad produced by the Obama campaign which reveals how John McCain couldn't answer a reporter's question about how many homes he owns, while millions of Americans face foreclosure.
