McCain Says He Would Fire SEC's Cox If President

This man is possibly a better liar than Bush. I love the claims that he makes; especially when they conflict with his previous positions. I can't wait to vote for this man and ride the top of the wave to the demise of this fair land. Let us all hope for a cultural to develop where I am a pirate of sorts. I shall roam the earth piecing scraps of metal together to build weapons and wandering down abandoned highways to loot. For this first time in years I am starting to get excited about the direction this country is taking. Anarchy, or even a feudal system could work out well for me. There is just something magical about becoming a rogue nomad in a world with no legal recourse.


McCain Says He Would Fire SEC's Cox If President

Technically, the president can't remove Cox from the five- member SEC against his will, though Bush can pick one of the other four commissioners to serve as chairman. The SEC commissioners are appointed for fixed terms. Cox's term runs until June 2009.

The Arizona senator, while not naming Cox, said the SEC ``kept in place trading rules that let speculators and hedge funds turn our markets into a casino.''

``We cannot wait any longer for more failures in our financial system,'' McCain, who has supported deregulation in the past, said.
