sure... i read what you said, but by 'unethical behavior,' what are we talking about? he obviously wasnt guilty of the charges he was lumped in with the others for, so what was it?
did he withhold information? did he manufacture evidence? what was it?
whatever it was, it wasnt serious enough to make him a part of the 'Keating 5.' that whole mantra is grasping at straws by the left.
i think it's highly possible that McCain was simply copping to SOMETHING, because he knew trying to walk away from it all without saying something would cause hard feelings with the snot-nosed malcontents that make up the Democrat party.
Um, his quote speaks for itself. He is apologizing for the appearance of ethical misconduct, and thought that developing a close relationship with Keating was improper REGARDLESS OF ANY SPECIFIC LAWS BROKEN OR NOT. He has repeatedly said it wasnt a good time in his life. Again, whether he was found guilty of anything has no bearing on his quote.
You probably shouldnt try defending someone whose morals are more elevated than yours. I mean if Mccain is man enough to admit he should have handled it differently, then why cant you? No, you just want to spin, spin, spin. I suspect youd be pro child molesting if it was in your parties political platform and try to find someone else to blame.
You are really no better than partisan Democrats who insist Obama is above criticism. We get the leaders we deserve because of such unthinking attitudes.
