The paper also reported that the McCains, sometimes accompanied by their daughter and baby-sitter, had made at least nine trips at Keating's expense, sometimes aboard the American Continental jet. Three of the trips were made during vacations to Keating's opulent Bahamas retreat at Cat Cay.

McCain also did not pay Keating for some of the trips until years after they were taken, after he learned that Keating was in trouble over Lincoln. Total cost: $13,433.

When the story broke, McCain did nothing to help himself.

"You're a liar," McCain said when a Republic reporter asked him about the business relationship between his wife and Keating.

"That's the spouse's involvement, you idiot," McCain said later in the same conversation. "You do understand English, don't you?"

He also belittled reporters when they asked about his wife's ties to Keating.

"It's up to you to find that out, kids."

The paper ran the story.
 
He lied about not knowing about his wifes drug problem for possibly years, he lies to a reporter and calls him a liar about ties of his wife and Keating. The guy has an integrity problem.
 
" Bennett, who was the special investigator during the Keating Five scandal that The Times revisited in the article, said that he fully investigated McCain back then and suggested to the Senate Ethics Committee to not pursue charges against McCain because of "no evidence against him.""

The Senate Ethics committee agreed that McCain had done nothing wrong, but did state that he had exercised poor judgement.

Lastly, since you Dems seem fixated on bringing the dead Keating issue up again, lets talk about how the other four of the Keating five were all DEMS.

DEMS 4 times as likely to be corrupt.... The Senate Ethics committee said of three of the DEMS.... "the Senate Ethics Committee determined in 1991 that Alan Cranston, Dennis DeConcini, and Donald Riegle had substantially and improperly interfered with the FHLBB in its investigation of Lincoln Savings"

Oh surprize ,suprize that the republican would think McCain who was closest to Keating of these guys (lived in the same state ,vactioned with him for free, did business with his wife) would just need a slap on the hand.

Surprise surprise, Desh spouts off about a topic she clearly doesn't understand. DeConcini was ALSO from AZ. He was the Senior Senator from that state. He was found to have been the one that set up the meetings with Keating. He was one of THREE DEMS that the Ethics committee stated...."that Alan Cranston, Dennis DeConcini, and Donald Riegle had substantially and improperly interfered with the FHLBB in its investigation of Lincoln Savings"

They did NOT say the same about McCain or Glenn.

So your "McCain was the closest" is nothing more than a little pipe dream of yours.
 
:bdh:

Keating is Dead and continuing to bring it up when the DEMOCRATIC controlled senate ethics committee cleared him appears to be nothing that a desperate attempt to throw old mud, which is now dust, on someone that was cleared as was Glenn a dem.
 
His wife states it lead to her drug problem in which she stole medications for her nonprofit and forged peoples names on prescriptions and Dr shopped.
 
Oh and BTW, her parents held an intervention for her in 1992 and McCain has been quoted as saying he did not know about her drug problem until 1994.

weird that
