					<description>This must be an Irish thing.  My mom always handled the finances and so do I in my family.  All six of my brothers' wives handle their finances as well.  Of course it has nothing to do with the Irishmen drinking their hard earned money away.  Of course not.</description>

					<description>It's not just an Irish thing, for generations my family has done the same thing. (Could be a Cherokee, Scottish or Dutch thing too I guess)

Hell I'm a financial analyst and have zero issues letting my wife handle the finances at home.  My excuse is that I'm tired of looking at numbers all day and don't want to do it when I get home....truth be told I'm just a lazy bastard and let her have at it.</description>

					<description>Having the wife handle the finances is not typical of any nationality but is typical of a traditional family. Thisis all bullshit that the eltists on the left are grasping at.</description>

					<description>I'm just plain and proud American and I handle the money for my family also. Hubby hands his check to me. doesn't even bother to look at it. The bills are paid and the freezer full. Don't need much more than that.</description>

					<description>Obviously the dems are throwing the envy card into politics without realizing that many Americans purchase second or more homes as investments. Keeps people like me busy, thank you Cindy and John. Lately, the McCains are paying the price for those homes as real estate values seem to be correcting, but I'm glad to see that John doesn't have to spend time worrying about it.

I feel more sorry for those conned by this tactic and get less focused on the Fathers house, that one that has many rooms in it. But leave it to a democrat to tell you how to spend your money.</description>

					<description>I did not grow up in a military family, but I have found that in many cases, with career military family men at least, the wife is usually the book-keeper and household financial manager.

Having said that, Is ANYONE else as pissed about this as I am, in the fact that Cindy McCain is being shit-on for being successful and independent of her husband for her livelihood ... not only that, but that she has the ability to contribute this amount of strength and finances into their family?

Yeah, she came into her base wealth via family ... but she could have blown it all away.

Also, I've been wanting to say this all week:

The question to McCain was very unfair in this ...

It was a "Gottcha" question.  At the moment of formulating a proper answer in his mind to the question of 'How many houses do you [own]' ... McCain was probably looking at it in a legal sense, and not a 'I have slippers under the bed at this house, and this house, and this house ..."

I feel his answer was WAAAAY closer to truth than he has been given credit for.  Besides, we hear all the time about people who have others invest for them.

Had Mac said 'We own 2 houses' ... someone would have run in and said, 'Wait up here! What about this apartment building ... this condo complex ... blah-blah ...' that he and Cindy may never have even seen, but it's on paper in their holdings.  So, his answer reflected a cautious estimation to what a lawyer in cross-examination in a courtroom might have demanded to counter his answer on ...

Anyhow, it's all bullshit.

If THIS is all they got ... they got nothing.

They are just trying to "Heinze-Kerry" McCain and it ain't gonna work ...</description>

					<description>I see an oppurtunity here.  

When asked John Mc Cain was smart to say let me get back to you.  The fact is Mc Cain does not own a single home.  

Cindy Mc Cain is the regestered deed owner of more than half of the homes and the others are held in trusts of which she is the Primary Controller or Trustee.  

Yet this didnt stop the democrats from basically gaffing or lying which ever you prefer when they ran their advertisement and said in it that John Mc Cain owns 7 homes!  

The fact is that there are EIGHT homes owned or held in trust by Cindy Mc Cain !  This is so typical of the retarded Obama crowd to spew something so factually incorrect.  However this complete lie-gaffe has been either over looked, spiked or ignored by the entire media.  

Even conservative talking heads were either too stupid, lazy or cautious to expose the Obama camp's complete screw up.  

I see on a constant basis constant striking points and gaffes and lies being overlooked and not taken advantage of by our side.  What he heck is wrong with our media we need to strike while target is vunerable !</description>
