Days after he cracked that being rich in the U.S. meant earning at least $5 million a year, Republican presidential candidate John McCain acknowledged that he wasn't sure how many houses he and his wealthy wife actually own."I think — I'll have my staff get to you," McCain responded to a question posed by Politico, according to a story Thursday on the publication's Web site. "It's condominiums where — I'll have them get to you."
Later, the McCain campaign told Politico that McCain and his wife, Cindy, have at least four in three states, Arizona, California and Virginia. Newsweek recently estimated the two owned at least seven properties.
Being rich means you make $5million a year, not knowing how many homes you own??? Where's the media's call of elitism? Where's the media asking who's out of touch with the common man? Pffft, right. The headline about the notice about this article read "Oops! McCain doesn't know how many homes owned". OOPS????? That's all he gets. Just TRY to imagine the outcry, the firestorm of indignation, from the mainstream media, not even considering the far right wingnuts, if Obama had said these things!
*SIGH*....the Republicans like to whine that Obama's getting a pass in the media....tell ME, after this, who'd getting a pass!
