Yes people seem in agreement that the US is facing an historic crisis, but realistically... how much is McCain's suspension going to "help solve things"? I mean, come on! How necessary is that really?
If we're talking staff that genuinely need to be made available elsewhere to ACTUALLY help solve it, if we're talking McCain's personal expertise(..!!..) on economic matters required elsewhere, then fine, that's fair enough. But is that the case?
Question is, is he really setting politics aside?
Suddenly McCain's got himself plastered across the news, like some grand old leader, ordering - sorry, "calling on" - Obama to do the same. The Obama camp must be spitting blood at the moment.
They might see it as political opportunism, but they can't possibly say that or they'll be accused of playing politics themselves.
Will be interesting to hear Obama's response, and Bush's address later tonight.

I'm with you and cured on this. Then again cured, Biden brought this up before it was even reported:

I like how Biden doesn't sugarcoat the BS. Maybe if he delivered the BS wrapped in a big, bright, red bow it's be a bit snazzier, but hey, I think everyone's tired of the sugarcoating.
