Here is a link to video of John McCain calling for the Treasury to spend a trillion dollars without Congressional approval several times yesterday, a day after Congress denied spending 70% of that amount on the same purpose.

Amazing. I don't know if he's right or wrong on the legality of it, but the sheer HUBRIS of deciding that if the people's branch of the federal government doesn't approve of something, they should just be circumvented.

By the way, McCain yesterday also took Obama's call for increasing the FDIC insurance limit from $100,000 to $250,000 (he did give credit for it), which is interesting, in that 23 years ago when it went from $40,000 to $100,000 he OPPOSED it and claimed that the $40,000 of insurance was already responsible for the Savings & Loan failures.

McCain is clearly not a fiscal genius.

Liam.
