Update on Barack Obama and John McCain

So, about 6:30 pm George Bush called Barack Obama to Washington for a meeting with John McCain and congressional leaders to discuss the bailout.

Which of course, makes John McCain look like he's the right one because he gets Obama right where he wants him - not campaigning.

But, really, its George Bush helping John McCain politicize the crisis.

I'm sad. If I were in Barack Obama's position, I'd say "Oh Fine - you can be President, I'm going to live on a tropical island"

I did learn (from FOXNews) that 700 billion is 5% of the outstanding loans in the country.
