the people who are "so what'ing" the McCain story are the same people who jumped on the "Bash Obama wagon" when the story about how he abandoned his poor brother was circulating...

People are wearing blinders, they have a very narrow view of what is going on, everyone wants to be right, nobody wants to conceed that maybe their candidate of choice or their party of choice might be just as tarnished as the other guys...

This division that exists in the US (IMO)is the primary cause of why things have gotten so bad..people dont take TO each other, they talk AT each other,...

:cry:

This just goes to show you that McCain has no respect for people. He left his 1st wife after she stayed by him and left for the "better." War mongrels care about nothing but what benefits them

as much as i am against McCain, i have to say that this is just another silly story to dig up dirt on a candidate. should he focus on the tasks at hand or should he waste his time recognizing his wife, his other wife, ok so while we're at it, his kids, the guys he fought with, um...should i go on?

also, so what if he left one to be with another...that's most of the political figures...isn't it???

ok some don't leave their wives...they just mess around...but hey who are we to judge. i'm beginning to believe it's a prerequisite to becoming a governmental official.

Interesting...

At least he dosen't deni that he was with her.

Or claim that he never did anything with her.

As others do when news breaks about their past connections.

Maybe that is why we should start really scrutinizing who we put into office. If they dont even care about their own family, how do we expect them to take care of us all? I say we need to wipe the slate clean and use higher standards to replace the current people in office who are not doing their jobs. They work for us, so when they are not doing their job right they need to be fired. We must hold them to higher standards. That is why they get away with screwing us all over, because we let them. You have to look at their morals and values in their personal life.

McCain Has Two Standards on Drug Abuse
The GOP candidate is a hawk in the drug war, yet his wife got no penalty
Stanton Peele



Much has been made of allegations of possible youthful use of illegal drugs by Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush. Meanwhile, his chief GOP opponent, Arizona Sen. John McCain, has admitted that his wife not only illegally used drugs but walked away from criminal charges. The McCains have worked to make Cindy McCain's addiction into a political asset—despite the fact that she stole the drugs from a charity she directed and used them while mothering four young children.


John McCain

In 1994, Mrs. McCain admitted that she had solicited prescriptions for painkillers from physicians who worked for an international charity that she founded, the American Voluntary Medical Team. She then filled the prescriptions in the names of her staff.

There are two ways to react to this behavior. According to the Betty Ford model, people can sympathetically respond to the oppressed and ignored wife of a busy politician who has bravely come forward to admit her overpowering addiction. Mrs. McCain took this posture when she first tearfully confessed her addiction. She and her husband repeated this performance in October on the NBC program "Dateline."

The other possible public reaction is one of anger. Americans are prosecuted every day for such drug use. While most drug abusers purchase their drugs from street dealers, Mrs. McCain used her status as a charity director and senator's wife to cajole the drugs she wanted.

It's his current wife that stole from a charity to support her pain pill drug habit and went to rehab.

Maybe she was a just a biotch....even before this...


she was the mother of his children he could have set a good example for his kids and nurtured her he could have allways had an affair if sex was not an option like most of the other celebraties do.




Being a biotch justifies having a gf while you're married?!noway noway

I read that he was unhappy because she was injured and gained weight.

Hey I can get the guy is only humane and for the sake of his kids should have nurtured their injured and cripled mother. He could have allways got some play on the side to keep from going blind. No one would have to know about it
