Kevin Hassett is senior fellow at the think tank American Enterprise Institute where he directs economic policy studies. He regularly appears on Bloomberg Television. He advised President Bush in his campaign, and he currently serves as a senior economic adviser to the John McCain 2008 presidential campaign.
shocker - he blames the Democrats... LOL
On September 15, even McCain blamed the Republicans.
While campaigning in Orlando, McCain told the crowd: “I think, still, the fundamentals of our economy are strong but these are very, very difficult times and I promise you we will never put America in this position again.”
McCain pledged to “never put America in this position again.” Did he intend to admit to being part of the problem, saying “we will never” do this to you good people “again”? He often seems to speak without thinking, but as my mother always says: “People say what they mean.” John McCain said what he meant: he is part of the problem.
Record unemployment, catastrophe in the financial markets, unprecedented numbers losing their homes—laying the blame at the feet of his compatriots, the Republicans, McCain was talking straight for the first time in a long time.
He also offered up this nugget in Orlando: “This economic crisis is not the fault of the American people.” Again McCain tells us what he thinks. Through no fault of our own, Americans are being put through punishing economic times thanks to the ineptitude of the current Republican regime.
ouch
