Does John McCain KNOW America?
In a recent interview, John McCain was perplexed when asked how many homes he owned. In fact, he told the reporter he'd have to check with his staff and then he'd be prepared to answer. Senator McCain has also been known to say that anyone making less than $5M per year couldn't be called rich. How sad for all of those Americans who make $1M. I guess by McCain's standards they are middle class... Hopefully, he might consider them "upper" middle class.
McCain has admitted to not being able to use a personal computer. And his idea for ending this country's dependence on foreign oil is to hold a contest giving a hefty prize to an individual who can develop an electric car or a car that runs on batteries... I sort of stopped listening at one point because I began to realize that McCain may not be the sharpest tool in the shed.
And speaking of tools... It saddens me greatly and scares me to death to know that a lot of people in middle America--those men and women who work the land and have actually touched a tool-- truly believe that John McCain and the Republican party have their best interests at heart. Of course, the tax cuts he proposes are most likely in line with the Bush tax cuts. Of course, we must keep in mind that those poor Americans who make only a million dollars per year are just hovering somewhere above the poverty line and need all the help they can get.
All sarcasm aside. It's time for every American to ask himself or herself, "Who will lead this country to take back its rightful place on the World Stage?" The answer to that question is not John McCain. John McCain and his Republican party will tell you that they stand for family values. They will tell you that they support health care for all Americans. They will tell you that they believe in fiscal responsibility. But, the last time I checked, I'm pretty sure most Americans I know--those of us who need the government to truly protect our interest--We knew how many houses we owned (or don't own because owning in California is cost prohibitive). We knew because we struggle to write the check that pays the mortgage every month. I suppose Senator McCain has somebody on his staff write his mortgage checks each month. Wait a second--He probably owns his 7 homes outright.
