This study was conducted by Citizens against Government Waste. Here's the video:
The Democrats have something to hide? Oh no, you don't say!
Here are some highlights from the transcript:
Fox News' Greg Jarrett: "Youfocused on two things really as I understand it, earmarks, and we willget to it in a moment, but wasteful spending talk to us about how thecandidates break down on this.
Council For Citizens Against Government Waste's Tom Schatz:"There is a long track record in both cases, some of which goes toSenator Obama in the Illinois Legislature. We do not analyze thestates. But just on the votes in 2007, Senator Obama voted correctlyonly 10% of the time, and Senator McCain voted 11 out of the 35 times.He did vote correctly every time. His lifetime rating 88% is thesixth-highest in the Senate. Senator Obama's lifetime rating is 18% inthe years that he has been a Senator. So there is a vast difference onthe question of spending and taxes and those results are consistentwith other analyses and organizations that track all of these variousvotes."
Jarrett: "Is Obama at the bottom?"
Schatz: "Heis not quite at that the bottom. Actually, Senator Biden is at thebottom. He has a zero rating in 2007. But Senator Obama is pretty closeat 10%."
Jarrett: "SoBiden would be the most wasteful in your judgment, and again you are anon-partisan group, would be the most wasteful Senator?"
Schatz: "Hewasn't the only one. There were 13 Senators with a zero rating, but hewas one of those that failed to vote a single time to cut waste or cuttaxes are even preserve tax cuts."
Jarrett: "And again, we are out of time, but John McCain, zero earmarks. Right?
Schatz: "That is it. Zero."
Jarrett: "Big goose egg. I mean that is amazing in Congress."
Schatz: "It is difficult to say no, but he is one of the few who has."
Nope, not tax and spend liberals at all. All lies!!!
