Housing crisis: how many houses do I own again?

[PixelPusher]

Wait, before I answer this, I must know. Do you know how many dictionaries you own??!?!?!??!?!

Zero, unless you count the Merriman-Webster link in my bookmarks.

The dictionary was after consideration. It was initially going to be socks.

Well ...you got me there. I have no idea how many socks I own. That's what I get for not listing them among my assets in my finanical portfolio.

Hmmph. Typical elitist.

Obama's ad mocking the house thing is gonna fall on deaf ears.

One elitist calling another MORE elitist ain't gonna fly. Besides, with the Hollywood crowd, the Kennedy's etc. FIRMLY behind, and running with, Obama, he is the personification of "elite" in this country right now.

The fact that the Obamesiah gave less than 1% of his income to charity BEFORE he began running for president ain't gonna help.

You think the people in hollywood are "elite"?

I certainly don't look up to them.

Besides the message is simply that McCain is out of touch, and not an elitist.

Personally, I don't think McCain really has clue one what is going on in normal people's lives.

[RandomGuy]

Even funnier considering it brings Obama's own housing situation to the fore. Brilliant.

Which is? Do tell.

[spurster]

Not only is McCain out of touch with other peoples' lives, he is out of touch with his own life.

It really is pathetic how these trash dems have brainwashed you fools into hating successful people. In doing so, training you to have a blind eye in their blatant hypocrisy. Even more pathetic how you don't understand what they have done to your thinking.

Seriously, America is ed if most people are starting to think like this.

It's not pity I have, but disgust.


Seacrest out.

Were you not alive during the 2004 election when the Republicans kept harping on Teresa Heinz Kerry and her money, saying that John Kerry was out of touch and elitist?

What has the wingnut propaganda machine done to your thinking?

Here's a little reminder -

New ads call Kerry 'rich liberal elitist'
Kerry says some international leaders support him

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- With ads by the Bush-Cheney campaign and the liberal grass-roots group MoveOn.org already battling it out on the airwaves, another set of ads was rolled out nationwide Monday, the first conservative attack ads against presumptive Democratic candidate John Kerry.

Paid for by the group Citizens United, the 30-second message calls Kerry "another rich liberal elitist from Massachusetts who claims he's a man of the people."

Why do conservatives hate people that are successful...?

It is really pathetic how talk radio and fox news has brainwashed you fools into thinking that dems hate successful people. In doing so, training you to have a blind eye to their blatant hypocrisy. Even more pathetic how you don't understand what they have done to your thinking.

Seriously, America is ed if most people are starting to think like this.

It's not pity I have for people who blindly buy into strawman arguments, but disgust.

Please prove that Democrats hate successful people. I would like links and quotes if you would.

[PixelPusher]

All of the resident board Republicans who've checked into this discussion have completely missed the point. "Republican Presidential candidate is wealthy and owns multiple homes" is not some startling revelation; it's the "I don't remember how many houses I own" part that's the issue.

Again, how do you not know how many HOUSES you own?

[T Park]

Again with the class warfare.

Typical play out of the Democrat playbook.

It worked for the Republicans last time.

I Googled "Hollywood Elite"; got lots of hits.

Apparently you're living under a rock:

Liberal Elite, Hollywood Left, Hollywood Elite, Limousine Liberal, etc etc...all the same people, whether you look up to them or not.

What is "normal"?

You think Barrack gets it? Maybe only because he was "normal" recently he might? I don't think he's been "normal" for a while.

What makes one "not normal"? Wealth? A job?

, why don't we go find a "normal" person, and make him president. He'll understand "normal" people. That'll work great!

I, personally, don't want a "normal" person as president. , I don't want a "normal" person to ing vote!

[ChumpDumper]

, I don't want a "normal" person to ing vote!

Elitist.

[PixelPusher]

Ok, since all the board Republicans can't get past the "elite" thing, I'll phrase it a different way:

Is it normal for wealthy elites to not know how many houses they own?

[Spurminator]

I have to say none of this makes a bit of difference to me.

[101A]

Elitist.

Guilty

I met a guy the other day at my son's soccer practice. His just paid his neighbor cash for his house because he wanted more privacy. I could see how a guy like that could lose track.

While talking I mentioned I was from Texas. "Oh", he replied, "we own a railroad in Texas."

Different world.

What does McCain's wife do/did that she is so wealthy?

[Mr. Peabody]

What does McCain's wife do/did that she is so wealthy?

She was born.

All of the resident board Republicans who've checked into this discussion have completely missed the point. "Republican Presidential candidate is wealthy and owns multiple homes" is not some startling revelation; it's the "I don't remember how many houses I own" part that's the issue.

Really?

Did you know there are more rich democrats than republicans? I found a list one time, and there was only one republican in the top 5.

Again, how do you not know how many HOUSES you own?

I'm sure he knows how many he owns as I think about it, but that wasn't the question. His and Cindy's large finacial assets are not shared. McCain does not know how many investment properties she owns without asking. That can change at any time. He stays out of her finances to keep clear of conflicts of interest as a senator.

Last night, on the local replay of the Lars Larson show, I heard the question asked. The question included Cindy's houses. It was not how many houses he owns.

Liberal lies again. Changing the facts.

Oh well, what's new.

[Nbadan]

The McCain Camp has made him a cheat sheet so that he doesn't get nailed by the what he owns question again...

[Nbadan]

Cool....A Google Earth tour of McCain's many homes...
