KEATING ECONOMICS: John McCain & The Making of a Financial Crisis

This video is all over the web, but if you haven't seen it and if you're not drinking the McCain Kool-Aid, this will help explain the Keating Five Crisis and McCain's role in it. John McCain likes to claim that he was cleared of any wrongdoing in this scandal, but that's not exactly true. The Senate Ethics Committee found him to have exercised poor judgement. In fact, whether he was found guilty or not, he took bribes to jeep his friend, Charles Keating, from being prosecuted by the government. Watch this 13+ minute video and judge for yourself.
