Architectural Digests Visits McCain Home

Forgive me if this has already been posted, but here is a link to a photo spread published in 2005. I remembered seeing this at the time and did not realize then it was only one of Mac the Bomb's too-numerous-to-keep-track-of homes. What a nerve his spokesfascist has, referring to Obama's one home, purchased with money Obama and his wife actually worked to earn, as a "freaking mansion"!

1. They sold this home a couple of years ago

It was Cindy's childhood home in Central Phoenix. They moved into a penthouse condo.

3. Ah, then they probably "arranged" the article to boost the sales value

so they could advertise the home as "featured in Architectural Digest." That makes sense, for people with the media at their beck and call.

5. always nice to come from a family that can put these people

right at the top. Makes men like Obama and Biden really have to work hard to get to the top. Are we going to get another second rate name as President and kick out the people who work so hard? One would have thought the Royals of Europe cured us of all that stuff.

2. also ironic is the charge that Obama secured his w/ the help of a criminal, since McCain did too

As I understand it, his wife grew up in that house, and Cindy's father was convicted for falsifying liquor records to conceal illegal distribution of alcohol.

6. Did you notice the wooden Indian. Frikkin' racists.

How insensitive can an AZ Senator be?
AZ has the highest % of Native Americans.
I'm "guessing" not one of them has set foot in that room!!
