Frankly, I don't care how many houses his wife has bought for him. What bothers me about the whole "McCain house" flap is that he didn't KNOW how many homes he has. This guy doaesn't know how his own personal economy is, and you're thinking of handing over the keys to our already Bush-maimed economy to him? This (and the $5 million is rich comment) is evidence that he's either out of touch with reality regaurding what it takes to survive in America these days, or that at 77, he's really starting to lose his focus due to age.
I'll bet you Biden is prepared.. I bet he double checked to see what real estate he has in his portfolio. LOL
Be as snide, and disengenous as you like. I have great faith, in what I've seen so far, of the Obama campaign to come out smelling like a rose, while McCain seems to be walking around with clown shoes on that have bullseyes printed on the top of each. God help him if/when the media stops giving McCain the easy ride he's had so far. Virtually no questions have been asked of him about his affairs, his involvement with the Keating scandal, and his outright shitty voting record re: vets.
Perhaps nothing has come of the Keating 5 stuff, because it has been tried, handled, vetted, and even the prosecutor stated that McCain had done nothing wrong. You do realize that McCain was the only Republican in that group? So either your theory about Democrats being moral and upstanding is faulty, or you choose to ignore their actions.
I suppose you didn't hear the entire remark about the $5 million, or you are the one being dishonest about what was said. But by all means please continue to focus on it, as McCain stated that it was goingto be distorted in the very next sentence. I would much rather go with the position that nobody should be overly taxed, than the position of people making over $250k a year are evil and need to be punished for being successful. You do realize that if you start taxing saving and investments, you are essentially preventing those that want to become "rich" from doing so?
I am not even going to get into the inane argument about him not being sure about how many houses he and his wife owned. I understand that folks owning investment properties is somehow evil to those that wish to engage in class warfare, but not knowing how many properties are owned by his wifes investments (off the top of his head) doesn't seem to be a valid argument, especially since they have kept their financial dealings seperate.
How many socks do you own?
