The right and men who live off their second wives' inherited wealth - Glenn Greenwald - Salon.com
What's most notable about John McCain's
confusion over the number of homes he
owns isn't merely that it demonstrates
that, after running his campaign based
on depicting Barack Obama as an out-of-touch
elitist and himself as the all-American
Everyman, McCain lives a life that is
about as far removed from the Average
American as one can get, and has done
so for decades. What's notable is how
McCain was able to live that way. McCain
himself isn't actually rich. He just
lives off the inherited wealth of his
much younger former mistress and
now-second-wife -- for whom he dumped
his older and disfigured first wife --
and who then used her family's money
to fund McCain's political career and
keep him living in extreme luxury
(after insisting that he sign a
prenuptial agreement, which would
make McCain the first U.S. President
to have one).
republican hypocrisy knows no bounds.
"countries don't invade other countries
in the 21st century." give me a break.
i don't get people's blindness to it. the
deceit, the breathtaking hypocrisy...i get
that msm feeds the masses bullshit. but i
don't get the masses being apparently
willing to live on that bullshit. it's deadly
stuff.
vote for obama.
Who am i, what am i
A picture's worth
moon phases |
I stand on the sand, and I'm rocking
grief to sleep in my arms.
