McCain, then Obama agree to set politics asside to work on crisis.

Israel news sources and others around the world are reporting that Republican and Democratic presidential candidates, John McCain and Barack Obama, agreed Wednesday night, Sept. 24, that the financial crisis was close enough to catastrophe to set partisan considerations aside and help President George W. Bush push his $700 billion bailout package through Congress before the markets open Monday. That Monday deadline appears to be a consensus date to avoid the chance of global devastation.

The president addressing the nation later warned: “Our entire economy is in danger. America could slip into widespread financial panic.”

The sources also say they expect al Qaeda to issue a statment about the U. S. financial crisis on Friday.
