Could you link to a reference for the figure? I love this ad and I might end up quoting it at some point. I want to make sure I can tell people where the information came from if they ask. Thanks!
The point is: do you want our country to continue to be driven into the ground by absurdly rich people who don't care about the fate of working people? Or do you want a president with a degree in constitutional law who can relate to those of us with only one house?
"As for (Palin's) frontierswoman shtick, take another look at that hairpiece-augmented beehive and those stiletto heels. Coming from a college-educated family, living in a half-million-dollar view home, basking in a net worth of $1.25 million, and having owned 40-some registered motorized vehicles in the past two decades (including 17 snowmobiles and a plane) hardly qualifies Palin and her clan as the quintessential Joe Six-Pack family unit."
Al Gore, John Heinz Kerry, Ms. Huffington, Nancy Plosi, Barny Frank, Harry Reid and don't be shocked when you find out about the Obama's. If these people were smart, they would start Household help company. I've done it. Change=Socialism
What is this? The fifties? change does not equal socialism. Find something else to harp on. Do you really think when Obama is president that we will turn into a scary socialist state....oh, oh, or maybe we can become communist - even better.
"If these people were smart, they would start Household help company. I've done it"
I assume you mean "start a household help company"
Somehow I don't see you as the type to start any business, let alone a household help company. Lying about yourself is hardly the way to prove a point...
Being rich doesn't make McCain different...being super rich does make him different than even most Senators, and here's the deal:
Being wealthy doesn't make you bad. But being wealthy and having at least some respect for American middle class people, like Buffett, is one thing. Being rich and then supporting politices to screw over the working class and middle class, then people will make a point about your 8houses and it's fair game.Latest McCain: make taxpayers pay instead of mortgage lenders
Being rich does not make out of touch. Not remember how many houses he owns, owning 13 cars, paying that much for household help, tons of things he's said makes him out of touch... also claiming Obama is out of touch with ZERO evidence to back it up makes him a liar and a hypocrite.
So what? Pretty much every single president the US has ever had have been exactly one of these rich pricks that don't give a fuck about anyone but themselves and their corporate cronies. They own the country, they own you, and they will survive the economical crisis, and make you pay for it. I'd say it's been waaay too long since the last violent, blood-spattered revolution.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
When they asked who pays 275k on help... I thought of Ted Kennedy, Nancy Pelosi, Chris Dodd, Barny Frank, but then I was sure it was John Kerry and/or Al Gore.
Then when they said it was McCain I thought. Cool! Nice to have a clean house. ACORN is the source of that quote. Consider the source.
It's funny, I didn't know they were going to mention McCain, but when they did, it made perfect sense to me. Seven or eight homes, rich heiress ex-drug addict thief of a wife, they certainly do not relate to ordinary Americans. Especially if they have to resort to hatred and lies and desperation to win an election.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Wouldn't this actually be a good thing? I mean a quarter million dollars went to working people so I dont see how that could be a bad thing. I'd scrub his toilets for a quarter million.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The funny part is that you think it's one person that's getting a quarter million. It's likely 20-25 people working part-time. Would you scrub McCain smelly toilets for 10 grand a year? How about 15 grand? Those jobs exist right now all over the nation, but I'll bet you won't be applying! Moron.
Yep. And didn't the ice princess Cindy have an outfit (including jewelry of course) at the repub convention that cost around a half a million? And 45% of this country thinks McCain is one of them. Pathetic.
I thought they were saying "Household Health"... Had to go back to hear it again. Maybe because they were talking about health care right before that. Effective ad overall though (wtf).
Palin fits in perfectly w/ McLame. She's a corrupt governor with personal vendettas, hires high-school cronies, pays herself to live at home, furnished the governor's mansion with a tanning bed, and is defying subpoenas into corruption investigations. She lies consistently about the bridge to nowhere. She's attacks Obama w/ repeated lies about his tax plans and record, but when called on her own past/record, her campaign screeches "sexism". Typical Republican. McCain/Palin? Thanks but no thanks!
Hard to top that list, but remember Salem Palin also has her own "awesome" witch doctor right there in Witchilla, AK, to keep the "python spirits" away. Man, if only Obama could get one of those!
I went up to Witchilla but she turned me into a bridge. It got better.
Yes, she took an "extra" $42,000+ (in addition to her salary and MUCH other income-she's no regular gal) from the tax payers of Alaska as "travel expenses" for herself, husband, and five kids-for living in their own house. And did not report it as income and did not pay taxes on it.
She "hates" government except when she's living off it like a far-right welfare queen with her big pile of kids.
