- ichbeineinrcg, on 06/15/2008, -0/+6Both are better with butter. Trust me on this.
- alabubba, on 06/14/2008, -2/+7You can't afford your own drugs? ... puhleeze Cindy, just charge them on your 0% interest AMEX ... so sad.
- andwhammy, on 06/15/2008, -1/+6I'm not disagreeing with the story, I'm trying to provide some background to an otherwise unsupported claim.
- argaen21, on 06/15/2008, -0/+4Thats a huge disservice to Cylons.

In 1989, Cindy McCain became addicted to opioid painkillers such as Percocet and Vicodin,[31] which she initially took to alleviate pain following two spinal surgeries for ruptured discs[32][33] and to ease emotional stress during the Keating Five scandal,[31] which involved her as a bookkeeper who had difficulty finding receipts.[14] The addiction progressed to where she resorted to stealing drugs from her own AVMT.[32] During 1992, Tom Gosinski, the director of government and international affairs for AVMT, discovered her drug theft.[34] Subsequently in 1992, her parents staged an intervention to force her to get help;[14] she told her husband about her problem, attended a drug treatment facility, began outpatient sessions, and ended her three years of active addiction.[31] A hysterectomy in 1993 resolved her back pain.[31][33] - Jareth86, on 06/15/2008, -0/+3She looks nothing like Gaius Baltar.
- Sogui, on 06/15/2008, -0/+2In 1988, inspired by a vacation visit to substandard medical facilities on Truk Lagoon,Cindy McCain founded the American Voluntary Medical Team (AVMT). It was a non-profit organization that organized trips for doctors, nurses, and other medical personnel to provide MASH-like emergency medical care to disaster-struck or war-torn third-world areas such as Micronesia, Vietnam (before relations were normalized between them and the U.S.), Kuwait (arriving five days after the conclusion of the Gulf War), Iraq, Nicaragua, India, Bangladesh and El Salvador. She led 55 of these missions over the next seven years, with each being of at least two weeks' duration. AVMT also supplied treatment to poor sick children around the world.
While at Mother Teresa's orphanage in Dhaka, Bangladesh, in 1991 — as part of AVMT's assistance team following the 1991 Bangladesh cyclone — she met two infant girls she decided needed to be brought to the United States for medical treatment. She decided to adopt one of the girls (her husband readily agreeing), later named Bridget (who became the McCains' fourth child together), and helped coordinate the adoption of the other little girl, named Mickey, for Wes Gullett, a family friend. In 1993, Cindy McCain and the AVMT were honored with an award from Food for the Hungry.

But yea she stole some pills, was caught, recovered from her addiction, and all this is now behind her... and that's the REAL news here right? - samyoungguitar, on 06/15/2008, -0/+2what a *****
- trunkster, on 06/15/2008, -1/+3The photoshop image pretty much says "Cindy McCain stole drugs from her own charity." And from that article, Cindy announced to the press that she stole drugs from her own charity. How is this different?
- MewTwo, on 06/15/2008, -0/+2Wow, they actually adopted poor children instead of using them for a photo-op? Touche, McCain, touche.
I'm still not voting for you though. For some other reasons. - inactive, on 06/15/2008, -2/+3***** that, any hot cougar who pops Vicodin is cool with me. Stop hatin' on the poor lady. If you were married to John McCain, you'd be poppin' painkillers, too. So she plasters on the makeup like a trollop...BFD. At least she delivers hot bottled beer to dehydrated yuppies.
- DeviantDragon, on 06/15/2008, -1/+2Actually, it's a space-station.
- inactive, on 06/15/2008, -1/+2Is a trollop anything like a scallop?
- tjmb9, on 06/15/2008, -1/+2You could have at least included a description of the part you don't like.
- jkbowman, on 06/15/2008, -0/+1The Cindy McCain Story
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7AD4_0i9eGQ - jackieblu, on 06/15/2008, -0/+1Awesome keep these stories coming. The McCain's have plenty of skeletons in their closet. She was/is not only an addict, but a thief too!!! She's such a rich bitch, and she's stealing from charity - buy your own drugs... A smear piece is making ***** up, this story is true. She looks high!!!
- andj, on 06/15/2008, -0/+1No. She isn't necessarily a *****. I would say however, that her husband is.

typical brewery heiress behavior - inactive, on 06/15/2008, -1/+1I for one appreciate the link you provided. The image portrayed nothing but a rumor, whereas the salon article detailed the facts behind the story. Thanks.
- Sogui, on 06/15/2008, -1/+1So you linked a far-left website to give Digg "the facts" behind the story. I got 2 paragraphs in and the author's bias was so obvious that I didn't even bother to finish it.
***** at least link Wikipedia (Wikipedia > Far-left blogs > Photoshopped images) - inactive, on 06/15/2008, -2/+1http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBlesr8vS2g
- Pyehole, on 06/15/2008, -2/+1Should have dugg the wikipedia article then. At least that has some substance to it.
- Pyehole, on 06/15/2008, -6/+1No story? Just a picture of her with 2 pills? Absent facts, that is just a smear piece, I don't understand why anyone would digg this up.
