How can McCain freeze spending if he's buying mortgages?

During the debate tonight McCain said he wanted to do a spending freeze, but also suggest he wanted to buy up mortgages? Which one is it?How can McCain freeze spending if he's buying mortgages?
Thank you! I thought the same thing.





He was getting down on Obama for supposedly wanting more government in our lives and then he comes up with this.





Also, McCain also said Social Security won't be the same as it is now. Somehow I don't think he meant it'll get better!How can McCain freeze spending if he's buying mortgages?
He would freeze spending on the ';current'; programs......the bailout program would be a ';new'; program.....I know it takes democrats a while to read this so I am writing it slowly.





BTW--Obama wants to give the middle class a ';tax cut'; but wants us all to ';help'; fund his healthcare plan.....so he will cut my taxes before he raises them through the roof......yeah, smart.
That is what is called, ';talking out of both sides of your mouth';. That's what the bail-out is supposedly for, but you probably heard about AIG having their big spending party to celebrate. They used the money for facials, massages, golf, etc. The creeps caused the problem in the first place, so we give them money and they party! Are we stupid, or what?
I caught that too. That's a real brain teaser. But I still say everybody is treating a symptom, not the problem. The real problem is static wages and rising cost of living. If it keeps up, there's gonna be a lot more foreclosures, and not just sub-primes!
Spending freeze is on current spending. Although he wouldn't be able to change the budget until October 1st 2009 same as Barry.
