McCain Camp Response to Obama Comments on Houses
McCain campaign PR via Time ^ | August 21, 2008 | McCain spokesman Brian Rogers

Posted on 08/21/2008 3:52:41 PM PDT by Baladas

“Does a guy who made more than $4 million last year, just got back from vacation on a private beach in Hawaii and bought his own million-dollar mansion with the help of a convicted felon really want to get into a debate about houses? Does a guy who worries about the price of arugula and thinks regular people ‘cling’ to guns and religion in the face of economic hardship really want to have a debate about who’s in touch with regular Americans?”

“The reality is that Barack Obama’s plans to raise taxes and opposition to producing more energy here at home as gas prices skyrocket show he’s completely out of touch with the concerns of average Americans.” –McCain spokesman Brian Rogers

It's clear that there can only be one real elitist this year. Barack Hussein Obama' half-baby brother and one of his grandmothers live in a hut. So there!

When asked how many houses he had, McCain should have said “I do know we didn’t buy any of them with the help of convicted felon Rezko.” Whatever his answer was, however, he’s sure hitting back hard. Obambi will get his little feelings hurt if he keeps up his nonsensical non-issue attacks on McCain.

Three cheers for McCain. Let’s hope he keeps taking the ugliness of Obama to the nation in spades. That is what it will take!

The McCain List.

McCain press release on Obama's housing comments

“Does a guy who made more than $4 million last year, just got back from vacation on a private beach in Hawaii and bought his own million-dollar mansion with the help of a convicted felon really want to get into a debate about houses? Does a guy who worries about the price of arugula and thinks regular people ‘cling’ to guns and religion in the face of economic hardship really want to have a debate about who’s in touch with regular Americans? The reality is that Barack Obama’s plans to raise taxes and opposition to producing more energy here at home as gas prices skyrocket show he’s completely out of touch with the concerns of average Americans.”

Once again, Obama bringing a knife to a gunfight!!

THAT’S RACIST!!! LOL

Seriously, if this is Nobama’s best shot, McCain may as well go on vacation. What a loser!

During the primaries McCain was very careful to chastise anyone and everyone who criticized Obama.

Let Hillary and Bill have their fun during the primaries and let Obama refute their claims while McCain stays up on the high road.

Now comes the time to spring the trap.

OK, Mr. Featherweight Obama, show us what you got.

How did Obama answer the Clinton charges?

NOW

Make an ad that takes those excuses away and lays bare the entire episode where Mr. Can'tdosquatwithoutateleprompter is at a loss for words to combat the new ads.

McCain is planting Tarbabies with every ad, every forum, every speech, every "nuance" and Obama is socking everyone with vapid excuses and they are sticking to him like a woodtick on a mongrel cur.

Three cheers for McCain.

You're cheering a guy that doesn't even know how many homes he owns?

Hmmm..

These people and their corrupt insider wealthy elite friends have not a clue, and could care less what is going on in the real world of working Americans.

Nice right cross followed by upper-cut! The person in charge of responding to Obambi is really doing a good job.

You like it? I'm going to have to ask my wife if we own any other homes....She is no doubt hiding things from me.

Hopefully, when she gets home from work, I'll be informed that we actually own two or more homes.

Funny, how about the hypocrisy conservatives hold dear, when they rant and rave about celebrities, and leftist wealth, but when it comes to their favorite political celebrities, hey, it's cool, we like it!

This is who we want to represent us!! Someone that can relate to Americans that are having difficulty filling their freaking gas tanks. Someone so sharp, they haven't a clue how many homes they own.

Good Gawd.
