McCain returns fire on Obama economic criticism
Wednesday, March 26th, 2008Sen. McCain hit back at Obama after the IL Democrat attacked the mortgage plan he announced yesterday.
Speaking to the press aboard his plane Wednesday during a flight to Monterey, CA, he said, “I know that Senator Obama wants to raise taxes. He’s a - If he wants to do that, fine, but I think that’s the worst thing that we can do to the American people right now in this very difficult economic challenges. But I’ll do whatever’s necessary to help the homeowner and that legitimate homeowner and we may have to do more, but to raise taxes as Senator Obama wants to do or some kind of massive bail out that is a needless expenditure of taxpayer’s dollars is something that I don’t support. This is sort of in a way the classic contrast between a far left, liberal Democrat and a conservative republican. Senator Obama believes that the government should do everything, I believe that the government should do as little as possible.”
