POSTING: "Their pastime seems to be jealousy."

QUESTION: Who exactly are "they?"

POSTIBNG: "What she does is no ones business when you are as rich as she is other people handle your money.

ANSWER: Wrong, and We the People about to prove that.

POSTING: "Besides with her money she doesn''''t have to give a *** what other people think."

COMMENT: Hmmm, you must be in the dying GOP.

POSTING: "This election won''''t change her life style one bit. You losers had better wish you had wives that look like her."

It does`nt matter, because she`s White...

But if she were Black....

HARBORER OF TERRORISM & TERORIST !!!


If this were Michelle or Barack Obama, with Investments in the Sudan, these Obama Haters, would be Calling them Hamas, Al Queda, Oil Money & Harboring & Financing Terrorist !!!


When your White, Its ...Alright !!!

If your Afro American...You had better not have Oil investments in the Sudan or Africa or near any Arabic Country.

But, if your White...

Forgive it, Overlook it, Excuse it & No Accusations of Terrorism or Lack of Patriotism !!!

"GreatDriveW, have you checked the holdings of your mutual funds? I know that the muslim agression in Darfur is truly terrible and that there is much suffereing there. I am not making light of the plight of those people, but how would anyone know how their mutual fund money is invested? If she sold it because she learned of the Sudan connection, then at least she took the appropriate action once it came to light.

Your mutual fund manager''''s sole objective is to make money, even, unfortunately, at the expense of morals and decency. Those with morals make 0.2% less and are fired."

I''m not entirely certain what your conclusion is, Glock.

Is it that the investment class bears no responsibility for their investments?

Or, is it that the mutual funds are a perfect example of the passing the buck mentality of ruthless capitalism?

If your conclusion is the former, then let''s continue this discussion. If however it''s the latter, then we are in agreement.

This is a serious liability for McCain. He can''t really expect people to believe that what affects his wife''s fortune doesn''t somehow have an impact on him.

But he doesn''t have the manhood to make her disclose.

Frankly, the man is pussywhipped.

You want a pussywhip for Prez?

I don''t think so!!

Would you all, oh sorry, let me put this in terms the GOP will understand . . .

Would "y''all" like to know how the people of Sudan are fairing while millionaire Cindy McCain gets richer?

If you would like to know, then go to Google images and query "Darfur genocide."

Look at the photos - I dare you. These are the people that do not exist in John and Cindy''s posh little world.

Go look.

The thing about mutual funds is that the fund manager decides which individual holdings to buy and sell. It seems possible that she didn''t know about these mutual funds. For all I know my mutual funds may have some evil investments.

On another topic, how did McCain get such a nice looking wife? ...rich, beer, blonde. Like or hate her, those are a few of my favorite things!! I guess it pays to be a Senator, huh?

What? Cindy McCain''s had enough of making a fortune off alcoholism, and so she''s turned her attention to oil production in countries sponsoring genocide?

No surprise there: Where ever you find plentiful natural resources, no environmental standards and no labor standards, you will find the GOP. I''m certain she''s knows everyone at the annual meetings.

So which will it be? Obama and the future, or four more years of McCain, Bush, Cheney and the neocons?

The McCains can HIDE their "dirty investments" under the WIFE''S SKIRTS and blatantly DENY "knowing" about it until caught AGAIN!

And the Operation Chaos bunch rants about "not knowing" absolutely EVERYTHING from the day Obama AND Clinton were born to what their second cousin twice removed might think.

Freaking DOUBLE-STANDARD ELITE! the McCains have OVER 100 MILLION HID and invested in WHAT?

My guess might be OBVIOUSLY Beer, Cigarettes, War Profiteering, 3rd world sweat "factories", companies that TRANSFERRED American jobs overseas, and other "potentially embarrassing" but EXTREMELY PROFITABLE things.

Wonder what that extra YEAR (after ALL the OTHER candidates CHECKED and DIVESTED) of HIDING their INVESTING IN SUDAN worked out in PROFITEERING???

OH, GREAT! Cindy McCain is invested in companies that are ''doing business'' in Africa! These companies aren''t engaged in illegal business practices that we''ll find out about in the future, are they?!

Is that why SHE''s divesting her holdings? Because she''s not going to hold office, it shouldn''t really matter unless something unethical is going on! And she knows it!?

It''s looking to me---that no matter how much he ''cleans up his camp''---he''ll never really get it clean! In example, having Hagee recant his hatred of Catholics/Catholicism, firing his lobbying campaign aides, or having the wife clean up the investment portfolio---among other things!

There''s just too much dirt to ''sweep under the rug''!
