Woe to him who builds his palace by unrighteousness,his upper rooms by injustice,making his countrymen work for nothing...Does it make you a king to have more and more cedar?Did not your father have food and drink?He did what was right and just,so all went well with him. He defended the cause of the poor and needy,and so all went well...But your eyes and your heart are set only on dishonest gain,on shedding innocent blood and on oppression and extortion. Jer 22:13, 15-17
I really think you've got a bit of a disorder, with all those posted threads. You have a life right? Then again, I'm posting in one of your lame threads.

I think those are the only ones you post on!

I can't and won't post in them all, I don't have that sort of time and I'm not just that obsessed. I'm more on the normal side, not the high and left that you ride in on a daily basis. Sometimes, they are so ridiculous, like this one, have to say something.

I can only wonder how many of mccains properties are investments . real estate investments for some is very sound . I could not begin to tell you what all stocks and bonds are in my mutal funds .
I wonder if Donald Trump was asked how many properties he owns at this very moment if he could answer it .
Owning a property for most ( like myself ) is a hugh investment . But for those who have alot of wealth it is not .
This is just something to cast our eyes away from the important issues .

Hmmm, McCain made $500,000 last year, Obama made $4,000.000.
Who is out of touch here? .
Maybe obama asks his maids , drivers , gardeners , pizza delivery and even the guy room the mail room what it is like to be in a lower tax bracket .

By the way, these are properties, not his residences.
Earlier this year, the nonpartisan Sunlight Foundation did an analysis of the net worth of each of the 535 members of Congress based on their personal financial disclosure.
McCain is worth $36 million and Obama is worth $799,000
The real problem is that McCain really does sometimes appear to be clueless. But not to worry, his handlers will reassure us, there's no need for him to be bothered with details: He will pick a running mate who be on top of the facts, just like Dick Cheney. Except for the homes. Cindy McCain keeps tabs on them. After all, they're really hers. She's the beer heiress who inherited millions. She bought the homes and pays for them. McCain just lives there.
It's easy to understand why McCain doesn't want to discuss his wealth, since it's not really his. Barack Obama bought his and Michelle's home with money he earned from books he wrote. McCain benefits greatly from his wife's inherited fortune, estimated at around $100 million. There's nothing wrong with marrying a wealthy spouse, but it does suggest (scream?) elitism. Remember all those Republican demands four years ago that Teresa Heinz Kerry disclose her assets and tax returns? Somehow, the GOP doesn't seem inclined to hold Cindy McCain to the same standards.

So those real estate investments are working out for him. Good for him. Thats the American way.

Hmm? As I recall, McCain spent a few years, about 5 1/2 years, living in a pretty small crummy hut as well. Actually, from what I read, it was a crummy cell. I've been to Indonesia by the way, have you? Spent some time in Medan and Bande Ache. So how do ya know how he lived? My guess is McCain's 5.5 years was worse than his time in a hut? Just a guess
