political puppetry

spirithiker says:

This one article alone shows John McCains desperate dependence on advisors. He clearly has no clue what the function of the Federal Reserve is.

If he gets elected he will only be a figurehead, a puppet through which his advisers will run the country.

Sound familiar? This is the way the country is currently being run. Bush is just a puppet of the true republican powers. Bush and McCain are exactly the same.

(In this case, McCain was against the bailouts, before he was for them, before he was against them.
