Cindy McCain Going To Georgia

Time:

It's not every aspiring First Lady whose comfort zone is a war zone, but such is the case for Cindy McCain, who left Monday on a mission to Georgia to assess the civilian casualties caused by the Russian invasion.

McCain is traveling with the U.N.'s World Food Program, whose work she monitored in Southeast Asia and Africa this spring and summer. McCain planned to meet with Georgian President Mikheil Sakaasvili, and to visit with wounded Georgian soldiers. She would also visit representatives of the HALO Trust, which works to remove landmines and on whose board she serves.

Cindy and John McCain visited Georgia together last year; in an interview with TIME at her Sedona ranch before she left, she emphasized that her years of work on overseas missions was "an important part of what I'm about, what makes me tick."

Off topic--but can Cindy McCain vote in the presidential election if she is a convicted felon. She pleaded guilty on drug charges did she?

If what you say is true that she is a convicted felon then considering that her father is a convicted felon then Exxon John must be a convicted felon by reverse injection.

There are many orphanages in that part of the world, so you know what that means to Mrs. McCain.

She can steal all the childrens' medications!

You know the RNC is going to play this up next week at their convention. It is all hype for John McCain and how wonderful this couple is.

[MyGuyO]

Looks like another Hillary Clinton (trip to Bosnia) gaffe to me.

[ZenCrusader]

She's monitoring the UN Food Program ? GIVE ME A BREAK. Why does the UN let itself be used like this - some photo op for a rich old selfish cow ?

[JiminNC]

Will she be able to keep her shirt on? That might run the Russians off.

[ZenCrusader]

The DEVIL went down to Georgia. Cindy McCain is SCAREY, especially when she flashes that fake smile.

[mosh]

A very quick trip and a very quick photo op.

Yup, Cindy and John connect on many levels - in this instance John creates casualties by urging Georgia to invade South Ossettia and Cindy consoles the casualties. What a team.

[NoSillyName]

Oh, does she have a house in Atlanta?

[HallStyle]

She Looks like a 80 year old version of Paris Hilton in that Picture! ewwww! We need a Nice looking YOUNG couple in the White House.

Look closely. Cindy McCain is an android.

[mosh]

The glassy eyed look of an android or a woman who still enjoys her narcotics.

What better place to score than a medevac facility in a war zone. Go Cindy.
