"I am calling on the president to convene a meeting with the leadership from both houses of Congress, including Senator Obama and myself," McCain told reporters while in New York, where he and running mate Sarah Palin were meeting with world leaders at the United Nations. "It is time for both parties to come together to solve this problem." The White House said in a statement that it appreciates McCain's suggestion.
"It's time for both parties to come together to solve this problem," McCain said. "We must meet as Americans, not as Democrats and Republicans, and we must meet until this crisis is resolved." According to Fox News, McCain has also suspended the airing of all campaign ads as he works on the crisis.
According to CNN, the surprise move by McCain came just hours after the Obama campaign reached out to McCain's camp Wednesday morning to suggest that the candidates release a joint statement on the principles they think are important to incorporate in any bailout bill. The statement would also stress that it is important for Congress to work together on this bill.

That statement was expected by the end of the day, along with comments from Obama on the McCain's suspension and the bailout bill.

And I'm on the phone last night with the lender, and, despite the fact that my sister has zero debt and my current debt-to-income ratio is, and always has been, well below 1/2, and despite the fact that we have 15% to put down and are requesting a regular-sized loan, there is still, he explains,...
Sarah Palin Tina Fey has reportedly landed a six-million dollar book deal.  Not too many details out yet but it is supposed to be non-fiction humor genre (obviously!).  She has emerged as one of the best comics of today.  I cannot even look at Palin without second guessing if it is really her or if it's Fey.  I betcha it's one heckuva book!  Tina Fey is a maverick!  Darn right!    Ok.  I'm done now. *wink*...

Oh, wait ......
As it turns out, not all of the "Hollywood elite" are backing Obama.
Yesterday, boldfaced named like Jon Voight, Gary Sinise, Kelsey Grammer and Dennis Miller showed up for a McCain benefit in LA.
McCain, however, was a no-show for the event, opting to remain in D.C. to work on the stalled financial bill. As a result, only about 300 guests of an expected 1,500 turned out.
In his stead were wife Cindy and daughter Meghan, along with "first dude" Todd Palin.
Tickets were divided in...
But there's nothing stopping us from running the naked painting of Sarah Palin hanging in a Chicago area bar.

Gag me.
On entering a room filled with several Pakistani officials this afternoon, Palin was immediately greeted by Sherry Rehman, the country's Information Minister.
"And how does one keep looking that good when one is that busy?" Rehman asked, drawing friendly laughter from the room when she complimented Palin.
"Oh, thank you," Palin said.
Pakistan's recently-elected president, Asif Ali Zardari, entered the room seconds later. Palin rose to shake his hand, saying she was “hon...
