6. Out of touch elitist:
"In Arizona, the only way to get around the state is by small private plane."

7. She may have made as much as $70 million dollars on the Anheuser/Busch deal YESTERDAY.
Edited on Tue Jul-15-08 11:04 AM by blondeatlast
Her own financial records that ARE public indicate she owns at least one million shares of A/B.

Google will show it, just type in Cindy McCain and stock and Anheuser/Busch.

10. here is some more


1) She was never accepted in Washington DC as a serious person http://www.newsweek.com/id/142650/page/3

Cindy struggled to be taken seriously in the capital. She went out for drinks with staff and tried to make friends with other congressional spouses, without much success. For the first time in her life, she was an outsider. She knew what people were saying behind her back. Some of her husband's own staff privately called her a trophy wife; his political opponents carped that he'd married her only for money.



2) She was an addict stole from a non profit and got favorable treatment

A little more than a year later, an employee who had been fired from Cindy's nonprofit went to the Drug Enforcement Administration and reported that pills had gone missing. When the DEA called Cindy to ask questions, she broke down and confessed. But first, she called McCain from her lawyer's office to tell him the news. The senator rushed home. "I should have known that it was happening," he told NBC News later. "Maybe I was wrapped up too much in Washington and my ambitions to pay as much attention as I should have." Cindy paid restitution, did community service and attended counseling sessions.


3) By her own statements she has mental problems
http://tpmcafe.talkingpointsmemo.com/talk/2008/02/should-cindy-mccains-brain-dam.php

"I can function. I have short-term memory loss. I can remember all the major details of my life, but I sometimes can't remember what happened last week."

12. Back in 2004
There was a clamoring from the pukes about Teresa Heinz releasing her tax records. This woman has refused and has said she would never release them. Where is the 527 ad about that?

13. Cindy's white, Michelle's black.
That's the only reason some people prefer Cindy over Michelle.

14. at least she never murdered a boyfriend, like Pickles did
you might want to add that to your next email, that at least she's better than Laura, because she never ran down and killed her boyfriend.
