I noticed that when it came to Roe v Wade and Supreme Court Justice appointments, John McCain would not impose a "litmus test". He "is a Federalist", he believes it is a state's rights issue.

Interestingly, when it comes to laws regarding health insurance, he believes that the current system of individual states administering their own laws is inferior to the job that could be done by the Federal Government and seeks to abolish those state laws.

He has demonstrated the same ideological flexibility when it comes to the bailout of wall street too.

So, Senator, are you a Federalist only when it comes to "extreme" issues like women's health? Or are you for big government, dictating what laws the states can make about the sale of health insurance?

Hypocrite, much?
