The Bank that McCain's Son Directed Just Collapsed Entirely

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=102x3476512

I wonder if this is an Omen for a McCain Presidency...

McCain needs to be questioned about this. McCain was a key player in the Savings and Loan Crisis and probably has had a hand in the current financial crisis.

2. The Keating Five Dad John McCain must be real proud of his son.

5. Guess: A business partner got sweetheart deals on some loans

That's how Neil Bush did it when the bank where he was on the board collapsed and left the taxpayer with the bill.

What are the odds of this happening twice?

9. Well, the $5 Trillion dollar bailout of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac makes this look like peanuts.

So, just like when Bush's brother screwed up Silverado, I don't think anyone will notice this very much.
