Joint statement
Wha-wait a minute: It took all day to produce this?
Joint Statement of Senator John McCain and Senator Barack Obama"The American people are facing a moment of economic crisis. No matter how this began, we all have a responsibility to work through it and restore confidence in our economy. The jobs, savings, and prosperity of the American people are at stake.
"Now is a time to come together – Democrats and Republicans – in a spirit of cooperation for the sake of the American people. The plan that has been submitted to Congress by the Bush Administration is flawed, but the effort to protect the American economy must not fail.
"This is a time to rise above politics for the good of the country. We cannot risk an economic catastrophe. Now is our chance to come together to prove that Washington is once again capable of leading this country."
Three sentences?
Three.
Were they just writing on their blackberries?
It took all day to produce that? Yeah, we should be able to craft a $700 billion bailout package in no time.
