Former Senator Graham emotionally wants this to be a "mental slowdown," because otherwise, he would have to admit (to himself) his own culpability in our current economic crisis.Link(above link is to Countdown's discussion of Senator Graham's lobbying activities on behalf of UBS and how that helped lead to the current mortgage/housing crisis).Sometimes former Senator Graham is "lovingly" referred to as Senator Graham (R-Enron)-- I say, "lovingly" because those of us in California have such an affection for that Company (Enron) that came into our state like the James Gang and robbed us blind all while the FERC and our President sat idly by and watched (and which robbery is largely the cause of our existing State debt which will probably result in either reduced preventive healthcare here, or fewer teachers-- thanks Enron! You know we Californians (and all of your out of luck pensioners and employees) just "love" you!).AND former Senator Graham (who is incidentally a key adviser to Senator John Sidney McCain III's campaign) also helped Al Quaeda -- I am not joking. From Crooks & Liars:"UBS, a bank for which Gramm lobbied, is now under investigation for alleged use of overseas tax havens to hide assets of its wealthy clients from U.S. authorities — while in office, Gramm also supported these tax havens after 9/11, which hampered the government’s ability to track Osama bin Laden’s financial network before 9/11."LinkNice, yes? Former Senator Graham has a lot of explaining to do -- but he is deferring those explanations by claiming all of our problems are in our own heads (and not caused in any way by his own dubious activities on behalf of UBS (and Enron) both while in office and out of office as UBS' lobbyist.
PSS. ) SO is this reason why John McCain and his Advisors think that we the American People are Whinners? Enough Media. Enough of hiding and lying for the McCain/Bush/Cheney type of Government. We, the American People have had enough. Do your job as Journalist, and Report the facts, report the truth, also good journalist have good morals and can't be bought.
