John McCain, who said some months ago he didn't know much about the
economy, yesterday said he didn't know how many houses he owned, and how
many houses his wife owned.

(The answer for McCain and spouse is at least seven houses.)

I'm sure the millions of Americans who recently lost their houses, or
are about to, or are hoping they won't in the future, can identify with
the ultra-rich McCains and McCain's possible running mate, the
ultra-rich Mitt Romney.

John McCain, the man for the middle class. *snerk

How many homes is Sorosville?

You think that he has an empty realty portfolio?

Does he let the poor and vagerent camp out in them?

It's not the number, although with an ultra-rich presidential candidate,
the number is important. It's not knowing the answer.

Obimbo (yes, he really isnt the brightest bulb on the Christmas tree)
made $4 million last year from his Audacity of Hype book, not exactly
a poor man. Obimbo lives in a mansion that is valued at near $2
million and owns additional valuable properties. Obimbo can afford to
vacation at a private beach in Hawaii. We can also talk about
Edward's home and about Gore's home and about Pelosi's home and about
Soro's home and about the Clintons real estate deals.

My point was that Kaine's comment was juvenile. I think that it would be a
mistake for him to be Obama's choice. I don't see what he has to offer in
that office. His experience is lacking.

I think it reasonable for a presidential candidate to know how many
houses he and his wife own. I wonder if McCain knows what a half gallon
of milk or a dozen eggs sell for? I doubt it.



Neither do I. I haven't had a glass of milk or a real, home cooked egg
in about 3 years. So what?

You're not running for public office. Someone who is...should
Don't you go to the supermarket?



Very rarely. We don't have kids living in the house anymore. There's no
reason for me to be current with the price of a gallon of milk. So, I don't
have a clue, and I don't think it makes any difference if I were running for
public office or not.

I *do* know, based on conversations with my daughter who feeds two growing
boys with bottomless pits and my two sons' wives and their families that
food costs are going out of sight. I know pretty accurately how much they
all spend a week for food.

I think *that's* important to know, not an itemized grocery shopping list.

Ask McCain about the high cost of food. I think he has an idea.
Ask him how much a lb. of boloney costs and I won't hold it against him if
he doesn't have the current answer on the tip of his tongue.

This stupid stuff is nothing but political spin and frankly, it is an insult
to the intelligence of the American people.

Democrats always fall this cult of personality like they have done for
Obama..It is part of their pathology of wanting to be taken care of by
a father figure. Remember how many Dems thought papa Joe Stalin was
ok and they went into near depression when Krushev denounced him?
Remember how many Dems went gaga over Mao? They always do this
because the average Dem isnt smart enough to take care of himself so
they need an authority figure to tell them what to do.

Unfortunately, it's more. It's about power. Scaring the average guy,
promising him security and social welfare is a means of building it.

Personalities and individuals aside, I believe in a system whereby people
are guaranteed the opportunity to take care of themselves and their
families, to whatever level they aspire, in whatever legal means they
desire. Our social obligation is to provide for those that simply cannot,
for whatever physical or mental reason, do it for themselves.

It isn't perfect by any means, but we are obligated to continue working at
it.

One of my fears is that due to the rapid changes in the world today, the
global economy, the rise of the economic strength of other nations, that we
may be duped into the "security" mode of thinking and lose much of what this
country was founded on.

No offense, but that is the biggest crop of crap I have seen posted here
in a long, long time.

If you want political cult of personality in this country, look no
farther than Ronald Reagan, and the efforts of Republicans to name every
damned thing everywhere after him.

How many Democrats thought Stalin was OK? How many went gaga over Mao?
I'm old enough and educated enough to remember both of those guys, and I
recall reading many times that Roosevelt, the leading Democrat of his
time, had nothing but disdain for Stalin. His successor, Harry S Truman,
had no use for Stalin, either.

What you posted is bull**** piled upon bull**** piled upon bull****.

We can start with Ayers, one of Obimbo's buddies. How about all the
Dems who like Castro and Chavez. How about the great mouthpiece of
the DNC, the NYT and their defense of Stalin by saying they saw no
famine in the Ukraine They even wond a Pulitzer for that one. All
those 60s radicals have mostly become Dems and they all loved Mao.
Remember, "I'd like to teach the world to sing, in perfect Mandarin,
with Uncle Ho, Chairman Mao, fidel and Madame Binh......."
Roosevelt and Truman would have nothing to do with the Dem party of
today. Even Kennedy was more right wing than McCain.
