Thanks for tuning in to my show. It's sad that the Anarchist Federation fell apart in the 1970's. It might give some of us an alternative to our current party line.

Wake up Call Show

10/5/2008 4:54 PM UTC

The WakeUpCallshow intends to remind every voter on need to know information about John Mccain. It was awfuly smart of him to pick such a controversial VP to keep all eyes off of him as he slithers his way in as to keep us from be reminded about some skeletons in his closet. Do you remember his role with S& L scandal with the Keaton Five. He and his buddies cost the American people billions of dollars with this ethic scandal. Wow he has always been good at manuevering his way out once the shi@#$ hits the fan. It was nice of him to ask to suspend the debate but Mccain needed to be reminded that people in hell want ice water. We can no longer just turn the other cheek while John McCain continues his lies in public. Do your homework its all there on record. John Mccain once admitted to intentionally filing false income tax returns to defraud the IRS by not claiming thousands of dollars in gifts McCain and his family received from Charles Keating and Keating’s company. Yes the same buddy in the keaton five scandal. Years later, when the IRS noticed Keating’s company had written the gifts off to McCain as business expenses, McCain fessed up and admitted filing false returns and made a “donation” to the U.S. Treasury to cover the amount he defrauded American tax payers. McCain also leaked information about the Keating Five to the press multiple times in an effort to appear above the other Senators in the scandal. This is his history of behaviour simillar to how he played his fellow POWs in Vietnam. A 1989 Phoenix New Times article summed it up best with thier title - McCain: The Most Reprehensible of the Keating Five. Well the fruit is not falling far from the tree either with his wife, Cindy McCain, along with her father who made a $359,000 investment in retail property owned by Charles Keating in 1986, a year before John McCain first met with federal regulators on behalf of Keating. Keating was later convicted on 73 counts of fraud, conspiracy, and other crimes. Years later, Cindy McCain sold her investment for $15,000,000. For anyone not aware of the Keating Five, here’s a very simple summary: Charles Keating owned a savings and loan in California. He was illegally using the money of his bank’s customers to give loans to himself and friends that they didn’t have to repay, and to speculate on risky real estate investments, which was strictly forbidden by U.S. law (and was one cause of the Great Depression). When the feds found out what was going on and launched an investigation into Keating and his company, Keating called five U.S. Senators whom he had wined, dined, and lavished with hundreds of thousands of dollars in campaign donations and personal gifts. Keating asked the five Senators to tell the feds to bug off, and the five Senators, later known as the Keating Five, obliged, meeting with federal investigators twice and pressuring them to stop investigating Keating’s crimes. They bought Keating some time, but the feds didn’t give up and eventually Keating was nailed. The reason the feds were so persistent was because Keating wasn’t playing with mere chump change. Keating blew $3.4 billion through illegal personal loans and bad investments, and the FDIC had to reimburse Keating’s customers who had been ripped off. (Background Info - Keating wasn’t the only Savings and Loan owner who was committing fraud, 20% of the S&L’s that failed during that three year period were found to have been caused by fraud and/or insider trading. The failure of the Lincoln Savings and Loan and other S&L’s pushed the country into a recession, costing the U.S. government $126 billion dollars in FDIC insurance payouts to investors. All of this came to a crescendo during the first year of the presidency of George H.W. Bush, who pushed through the S&L bailout plan to keep the economy afloat.) When the involvement of the Keating Five was made public, a scandal erupted and the Senate Ethics Committee launched their own investigation into whether the Keating Five had violated Senate ethics rules. The other four Senators left office either immediately or within one term. John McCain was formally rebuked by the Senate Ethics Committee for exercising “poor judgment” for intervening with the federal regulators on behalf of Keating, but because McCain accepted Keating’s gifts of travel and vacations to Bahama while McCain was a member of the House of Representatives (he served one term there before moving to the Senate), the Senate claimed they had no jurisdiction to censure McCain. (However the meetings to pressure federal regulators occurred during the first few months of McCain serving in the Senate in 1987, so that excuse doesn’t hold up). John McCain then went back to the drawing board and re-invented himself as “the Straight-Talk Express” and the media gobbled it up. “Tax-Evading-Criminal” doesn’t sound as catchy as “Straight-Shooting-War-Hero”. Ever since the scandal, when McCain lies today, it’s never questioned, because he’s a “straight talker”. The man has more skeletons in his closet than any politician in history. The Keating Five is just one bone. After reading the Slate article, ask yourself: if Obama or any other candidate had a scandal such as the Keating Five in their past, would the mainstream media never question it? Could any other candidate even have a political career after the Keating Five? For the other four Senators, the answer is no. And while Charles Keating went to prison for his role in the scandal, John McCain swept it under the rug and could soon be President of the United States of America. Perhaps while he is so busy digging a hole for Obama to fall in with all these great ads tying Obama to the detroit mayor and Kenya leaders, Rev Wright. He may fall in it himself when people begin to really look closely at this crook. Its no wonder our economy is in shambles look at the folks we have operating our goverment. Look at thier background. We should be reminded of Mccain's circle of close friends and business partners such as Graham, and Karl Rove and some of these others in his group that are behind deregulation and taking money from lobbyist and much more. LOOK AT THE VIDEO on wakeupcallshow profile screen ON WHY MCCAIN SHOULD NOT BE VOTED IN AS PRESIDENT IT REMINDS OF THE OLD AND THE NEW. IT IS VERY MUCH ON POINT AND A COULD REMINDED OF MCCAIN'S EXTREME BEHAVIOUR, HIS LIES AND LACK OF GOOD JUDGMENT AND IMPULSIVENESS. He glorifies his own military service while voting against veterans, he opposed the additional funding for safe military equipment for amored vehicles for soldiers in Iraq costing many thier lives. He didnt support the increase on the GI Bill. He has also voted against increases in veterans healthcare while supporting price cuts for the wealthy though. Well John why dont you support your fellow veterans, since you are proud of military service? Lets keep it real and not be fooled by this man who only will put us in another war. Host Wake Up Call

There are approximately 23 days left to the NATIONAL BOYCOTT(May19-23). As many of you may know, the NYPD detectives in the Sean Bell murder trial were acquitted on all charges. The judge in the case had made his decision based on the fact that the demeanor and background of Mr. Bell and his friends had warranted the detectives to shoot over 50 times. This judicial decision cannot go unanswered. Go back to the 80's with the death of Micheal Stewart and Eleanor bumpers to name a few. Go back even further to a time when it was legal to lynch African Americans. For too long we have sat idlely by while we let the "establishment" shoot our leaders(Malcolm/Martin/Medgar) and our young black/hispanic men(Stewart/Baez/Bell) and have done NOTHING about it. NOW IS THE TIME FOR ACTION. We must make this stand because if we do not, they will continue to just kill our leaders and young men when it suits them knowing they will not be held to the same judicial consequences as the average citizens. We can no longer turn a blind eye, because it may happen to us. The only thing that the establishment understands is the almighty dollar. So remember, do all necessary shopping prior to the MAY 19th (May 17 & 18). Buy no gas; fill up before. Do grocery shopping before. Carpool to work, if possible ride a bike or walk to work. Bring bagged lunch to work or leftovers.Spend not one penny that week. Make a donation of at least $/£5.00 to a Black/Hispanic organization....Bless.......PLEASE PASS THIS ON. SIMPLY ME!
