John McCain Is Running for What?

Sorry, beloved citizens of Arizona. I, too, loved our "Homeboy." War hero, nice guy, illustrious career - John McCain was one of my heroes even when I lived in Ohio.

Before you vote, you must ask yourself which you love the most - John McCain or the Truth? You see, Senator McCain lied. I wrote to him imploring his assistance in this ugly thing with the NCFE bankruptcy, the counties' losses of Medicaid accounts receivable, and asking his assistance in recovering losses for those affected.

In his letter of reply, he stated that he "could not get involved in the business of the counties," and that he "knew nothing of the NCFE bankruptcy and Medicaid accounts receivable losses." I have this letter, signed by him, in a safe place, and intend to scan and reproduce it on this blog.

After logging in a few hundred hours on the web, I found that Mr. McCain DID know ALL about it by way of the Doctor's Hospital drama in Scottsdale and Washington; and, as a Senate leader, he actually prevented anything being done about it all! This from a man whose home state was one of the hardest hit...how can he claim to care about our people?

Vote how you will, as is your right. I, personally, cannot vote for a man who lied about something so important as care for our precious elders. Roy Rogers will ever remain my favorite Arizona Hero.

Furthermore, on these grounds, it is my belief that the local government of Cochise County and the state government of Arizona should be impeached. 1) They invested Medicaid accounts receivable (our money) without our knowledge or consent 2) They did not have the common decency to tell the truth. Lying in office should be a state and federal crime, if it is not. 3) The heartache, heartbreak and confusion caused by their covert cavalier actions goes on and on, hurting the most vulnerable members of our society. Crimes against humanity? I call it that.

Once upon a time, our state senators were a valuable resource for the people of our nation. When we had a seemingly unsolvable problem, the state senator was the person who brought about resolution. I have only lived in Arizona for eleven of my sixty-four years; have Arizonans never had the privilege of senatorial assistance? Is Arizona a floating island, disconected from the federal government?
