McCain/Obama tax plans....

Didn't need to read it on any site. I knew about it back when it was occurring. I have a pretty good memory.

Doesn't mean he wasn't buddies with him. Which is the same thing as the connection to obama, correct. They are friends/acquaintances.

Just because he was cleared by a senate/house committee doesn't hold a lot of water with me because of what they do on a regular basis. OJ didn't kill anyone, right?

I said that because that is one of the non-issues moveon has been trying to resurect in the absence of actual scandals involving McCain. He definitely knew him. Keating was from his home state and was active in large development projects which would definitely give him a reason to want to be in close touch with his Senator. I am a real estate investor on an infinitely smaller scale and being in close contact with the government is a HUGE advantage.

No, it isn't the same as Obama by any stretch of the imagination. You are talking ancient history here, not ongoing relationships that have been defended until very recently when continuing to do so became untenable.

I wasn't aware that the House and Senate cleared O.J. and they did not clear everyone in the Keating case.
