Cindy McCain “Never” Releasing Tax Returns - With Video
Never say never.
Unless you are the wife of Sen. John McCain, you are worth a lot of money and you are asked about releasing your personal income tax returns.
Cindy McCain says she will not. Not now. And not if her husband is elected president. “No… No…,” she said to both, today on NBC’s Today Show.
“My husband and I have been married 28 years, and we have filed separate tax returns for 28 years,” said Cindy McCain, whose family made its money in beer. “This is a privacy issue…. I’m not the candidate.”
Sen. Barack Obama and wife Michelle, who file their taxes jointly, have made them public. So has Sen. Hillary Clinton and husband Bill, former president.
Cindy McCain also spoke of their 19-year-old son serving in Iraq, in the interview with NBC’s Ann Curry, and told of a painful moment when she missed his phone call from abroad. Why is the war worth the risk of his and other lives? “Freedom.”
She spoke of her husband’s reputed temper - “it’s not a temper. It’s a passion.”
And she laughed at a question about his age (71). She’s 53.
Spend a day with John McCain, his wife suggested. “He’s just a ball of fire.”
