McMumbles Inbreeding Problem

[rayboyusmc]

Sept. 23 (Bloomberg) -- The lobbying firm of the man Republicans say John McCain has chosen to begin planning a presidential transition earned more than a quarter of a million dollars this year representing Freddie Mac, one of the companies McCain blames for the nation's financial crisis.



Timmons & Co., whose founder and chairman emeritus is William Timmons Sr., was registered to lobby for Freddie Mac from 2000 through this month, when the federal government took over both Freddie Mac and Fannie Mae.

Newly available congressional records show Timmons's firm received $260,000 this year before its lobbying activities were barred under terms of the government rescue of the failed mortgage giant. Timmons, 77, is listed as a lobbyist for Freddie Mac on the company's midyear financial-disclosure form.

While Republicans say Timmons is making plans for the transition if McCain wins in November, the campaign wouldn't confirm his role. Timmons didn't return a phone call seeking comment.

McCain proposed legisalation to impose oversight. The Twit has not.

McCain has taken $21k from Fan/Fred during his entire career, Obama has taken over $125k in less than 4 years.

It seems as if McCain is immune to lobbyist wiles...The Twit, not so much.

McMumbles has taken a lot more from Merrill Lynch if you check that out.

McMumbles is for deregulation which caused this frigging mess. Then he is against it, then he is for it, then he is against it, etc, etc.

McMumbles has gotten many many millions in earmarks for Arizona.

Graham, who is still his $$$$$$$$$ advisor was a major cause in this current deregulation screw up. How much is Mr. Whiney worth?

Are any of his staff not lobbyist for some foreign dick tater?

.....deregulation which caused this frigging mess. T.....

If you can't understand the simple fact that it was regulations imposed by Democratsthat caused the mortgage crisis, then you are not qualified to even debate who's lobbying for whom.

How can you make that argument when McCain's proposed reform bill was stopped by dems?

rly?

Such as?

How about Obama? Besides earmarks for his wife's hospital just before her big, fat raise, what has The Twit requested?

This coming from the guy that fellates every commie and jihadi thug so long as they oppose the US.

At least McCain would pull the trigger on Chavez and Amadinejad...unlike you who would probably enlist to fight for them.
