How many houses...
 
....do you own?

3?
4?
5?
6?
7?


John McCain, who said some months ago he didn't know much about the
economy, yesterday said he didn't know how many houses he owned, and how
many houses his wife owned.

(The answer for McCain and spouse is at least seven houses.)

I'm sure the millions of Americans who recently lost their houses, or
are about to, or are hoping they won't in the future, can identify with
the ultra-rich McCains and McCain's possible running mate, the
ultra-rich Mitt Romney.

Obimbo lives in a million dollar mansion he bought from a convicted
felon in a shady deal. Gore lives in a huge mansion and has an
enormous houseboat. Kerry has a huge place and his wife........?
Edwards has the largest place in NC.

I suspect Obama, Gore, Kerry, and Edwards know how many houses they and
their spouses own, eh?

The point was not the number of houses, but the fact that McCain didn't
know.

BTW, why do you refer to Obama as "Obimbo"?

I think it reasonable for a presidential candidate to know how many
houses he and his wife own. I wonder if McCain knows what a half gallon
of milk or a dozen eggs sell for? I doubt it.

That wasn't your point at all.

First of all, McCain and his wife have made many investments, including
property, houses or condos. When he was asked this question, he deferred
to his staff to make sure he gave an accurate response. Can't blame him.

Now, the *point* you were trying to make is contained in this:

"I'm sure the millions of Americans who recently lost their houses, or

I'll debate, but let's be honest.

Neither do I. I haven't had a glass of milk or a real, home cooked egg in
about 3 years. So what?

I like Kaine's comment, "he can't count that high". That sounds like
something right out of rec.boats.

Kaine is VP material?

My point was and is that I think McCain is disconnected from the harsh
reality facing tens of millions of Americans and, worse, he doesn't give
a damn, either.

PS...his staff didn't know the answer either.
