And no, saying Huffington Post spam over and over again ain't gonna do the trick. - zephyear, on 06/29/2008, -6/+117wait wait the mccains have 6-7 houses and people are trying to paint the obamas as rich elitists?

- SheilaNoya, on 06/29/2008, -5/+60Gee - It must be nice to fly around in a private jet (made in France) that your wife owns, and to have so many expensive homes that you can just forget about one of them and let the taxes go unpaid for 4 years.
Yet McCain tries to claim that Obama is an "elitist"??? - NoDrama, on 06/29/2008, -3/+52And the RNC tried to make something out of Al Franken mis-paying his? I grant your accountant ought to be able to get it right, but at least in Al's case it just went the wrong place.
- peticsu, on 06/29/2008, -3/+49Digg the original Newsweek article so the people cant complain its from HuffPo
http://digg.com/politics/McCain_Defaulted_on_Home_ ... - meese, on 06/29/2008, -3/+47And based on Zillow's real estate estimates, this house/condo is probably worth around $1.3 million:

(It's on the beach in La Jolla, which is one of the richest, if not the richest community in San Diego.) - DrewJJones, on 06/29/2008, -1/+40Of course it's necessary. Why, he's helping the housing market all on his own.
Good thing he married the filthy-rich Crypt Keeper. - drewnice, on 06/29/2008, -4/+36Agreed. It will be quite interesting to hear the McCain campaign's response to this!
- quesi, on 06/29/2008, -4/+36McWorse
- DrewJJones, on 06/29/2008, -13/+41Trying times for the Stray ***** Express.

- HappyScrappy, on 06/29/2008, -2/+28Give him a break, he's old, he probably forgot.
- totorototoro, on 06/29/2008, -2/+27Fiscal responsibility starts at home, Senator McCain :p
- MasteRR, on 06/29/2008, -3/+28"I love this country so much that I am not even willing to pay taxes!"
- ChristPissed, on 06/29/2008, -0/+24I always wondered what Cindy whatsernames maiden name was.
Cindy Crypt-Keeper-McCain.
Perfect name a dame who looks like she wants to usher in the end of the world, as the first lady. - inactive, on 06/29/2008, -1/+23That's ***** Up.
- inactive, on 06/29/2008, -8/+30Rethuglicans hate taxes. They just support unnecessary social welfare programs like roads and schools.
/sarcasm - SheilaNoya, on 06/29/2008, -1/+22Excellent info - Thanks.
I also love the McCain quote found on your link:
“Of those 80 million homeowners, only 55 million have a mortgage at all, and 51 million are doing what is necessary --working a second job, skipping a vacation, and managing their budgets -- to make their payments on time. That leaves us with a puzzling situation: how could 4 million mortgages cause this much trouble for us all?
--John McCain [Economic Speech in Santa Ana, CA, 3/25/08] - Failchan, on 06/29/2008, -1/+21Because you're illiterate.
- freaky2k, on 06/29/2008, -1/+20They're married. They share the responsibility of their taxes because they both own the property.
- meese, on 06/29/2008, -1/+19McCain wasn't successful, though he was pretty well off because of his family background - he then married a woman 20 years younger than him who was about to inherit from her wealthy family a $100 million beer distributorship.
- mishaco, on 06/29/2008, -0/+18only little people pay taxes .
- SpinningHead, on 06/29/2008, -2/+19really? http://www.newsweek.com/id/143775/
- inactive, on 06/29/2008, -3/+20Well, it is really hard to keep track of 7 house. I bet most people couldn't even manage to pay all the hired help on a regular basis.
- jmk4422, on 06/29/2008, -1/+17I guess she's too much much of a trollop and a ***** to remember to pay her taxes. The Senator's words, not mine...
- inactive, on 06/29/2008, -4/+19Why does John McCain hate education?
- pintomp3, on 06/29/2008, -0/+15a vote for mccain should come with enlistment papers.
- meese, on 06/29/2008, -1/+16It's not really a Huffington Post article - it's a Newsweek article that Huffington Post is just posting about.
- inactive, on 06/29/2008, -2/+17There will be no response because the media won't ask.
- EarlOfLade, on 06/29/2008, -1/+14Every time I see Cindy McCain, I'm reminded of a comment from Legally Blond "When I dress up as a frigid bitch, I try not to look so constipated!"
- diggthis123, on 06/29/2008, -5/+16He had better things to do...like calling his wife a c@#!
- meese, on 06/29/2008, -3/+14Just to clarify - their richness has nothing to do with their personal "success".
It's inheritance money. - PALMARY, on 06/29/2008, -1/+12Let's look closely at our "class consciousness", the rich in our culture are allowed their indiscretions, but try forgetting to pay the taxes on YOUR home and see what happens!! McBush is WEALTHY,so how about a pause for the old man's cause, let's give him one chorus of "For he is a jolly good fellow"!
- jattea, on 06/29/2008, -0/+11I commented on this elsewhere, but four years of back taxes on a luxury beachfront San Diego property, including interest, only totals $6,744?? I know California property taxes are relatively inexpensive, but this reeks of special treatment...
- elipabst, on 06/29/2008, -2/+13"Nevertheless, why knock the man for having nice things. Knock him for being a senile ass clown."
Uh because if he can't keep track of the bills now, what the hell will happen when he's running the country? - silentsteps, on 06/29/2008, -8/+19If I see huffingtonpost one more time, I'll quit the Internet.
- EarlOfLade, on 06/29/2008, -2/+12That is why he is called Teflon-John...
- Phil8, on 06/29/2008, -1/+11Is it necessary for me to drink my own urine? No, but it's sterile and I like the taste.
- Alexmtz101, on 06/29/2008, -12/+22I thought we were calling him McCunt
- carnivalofmmo, on 06/29/2008, -4/+14http://www.newsweek.com/id/143775/
"County records show the bills, which were mailed to a Phoenix address associated with Mrs. McCain's trust, were returned by the post office. According to a McCain campaign aide, who requested anonymity when discussing a private matter, an elderly aunt of Mrs. McCain's lives in the condo, and the bank that manages the trust has not been receiving tax bills on the property."
Clerical error. I was a delegate for Obama, have donated to his campaign, and will vote for him in november. Why? Because he as a person is above most of this kind of *****. McCain deserves credit for being above most of it as well. - kraetos, on 06/29/2008, -2/+12Difference is, Obama made his money.
- abran1984, on 06/29/2008, -5/+15Those government documents are all liberal propoganda, don't believe it!
- Ozzsanity, on 06/29/2008, -1/+11McBush and his drug addict wife who steals her fix from a charity are some real scummy folks.
- minorthreat, on 06/29/2008, -2/+11GOP knew this dirt was on him before they nominated him. Its setup I tell you, they are throwing in the towel on this election
- inactive, on 06/29/2008, -6/+15What a schmuck
- str1fe, on 06/29/2008, -0/+9Since we're picking at his grammar, where's the question mark?
