This past Monday Sen. John McCain blamed part of America's fall into recession on " greedy " investors as he puts it . You know i hear this same line from Democrats . Anyone who makes more than five figures is automatically greedy in their eyes . For those of you who happen to follow that line of thinking i have only one thing to tell you ....grow up ! When it comes to big business people tend to develop what i call a " Robin Hood " complex . If it wasn't for some individual out there willing to take a chance , and be successful at a business then chances are you probably wouldn't have a job right now . And for those of you who invest in Roth IRA's , Mutual Fund's and 401K's your doing the same thing that big business and the CEO's who run them are doing , and that's trying to make as much money as you can . So blaming investor greed on the state of America's economy only makes you a hypocrite . Sen. McCain also took shots at The New York Times for their uncovering America's use of undocumented wiretaps between U.S. citizens and people overseas suspected of having ties to terrorism . Also he cited the Times story on a supposed affair with a female lobbyist . Lastly Sen. McCain promised to go after Osama Bin Laden although he feels it would take more intelligence resources than those already employed . Well unless McCain is willing to commit troops to invading the northern part of Pakistan where the remnants of the Taliban have fled , then all the intelligence resources in the world won't make a difference .
