Liberals think that “Keating Five” is a worthy complaint about McCain.
Yet most of those that spew the term don’t even know who they are. Once
you learn that four of the five were Democrats, and two of the five
(John Glenn and John McCain) were exhonerated and cleared of any
wrongdoing you will wonder what the fuss is about.


Exonerated by being too stupid to know better * not the exact words but
you get the idea...


The Ethics Committee ruled that the involvement of McCain in the
scheme was minimal, and he was CLEARED OF ALL CHARGES against him.
McCain was criticized by the Committee for exercising "poor
judgment" [whoopty-do] when he met with the federal regulators on
Keating's behalf. The report also said that McCAIN's "ACTIONS WERE
NOT IMPROPER NOR ATTENDED WITH GROSS NEGLIGENCE and did not reach the
level of requiring institutional action against him....Senator McCAIN
HAS VIOLATED NO LAW OF THE UNITED STATES or specific Rule of the
United States Senate."

Democrats BUSTED
Dennis DeConcini of Arizona
Donald Riegle of Michigan
Alan Cranston of California

DeConcini and Riegle did not run for re-election in 1994 and were
succeeded by Republican Sens. John Kyl and Spencer Abraham. Only
Glenn and McCain ran for re-election, and they both succeeded.

Now run along lil Neo-Commie propagandist and go visit your Neo-Commie
mommie in Communist China where double jeopardy is the party
apparichik norm.
