John McCain breaks campaign finance law!

The great folks at Firedoglake.com have posted a petition addressing John McCain campaign funding smoke and mirrors magic show. Please go to Firedoglake.com and sign their petition.

At this very moment McCain is trying to wiggle out of the public financing system in the primary, which caps spending at $54 million. McCain signed an agreement to use public financing. But he never took the money and instead used it as collateral on an unused line of credit. Federal Election Commission Chairman David Mason sent McCain a letter telling McCain he can't withdraw from the public financing system.Guess the campaign finance laws only apply when they aren't inconvenient for McCain's ambitions.

John McCain doesn't just change his positions to pander to the fundies, he also does it for his own political convenience. Flaunting the very campaign finance laws he helped to pass -- "for thee but not for me" -- makes it clear that he's not a maverick, he's not an independent, he's just a garden variety Republican hypocrite.
