Cindy McCain Kept Keating Partnership After Scandal

Washington Independent:

Sen. John McCain's wife and father-in-law continued a lucrative business partnership with disgraced financier Charles H. Keating Jr. for 11 years after the GOP presidential nominee said he ended his close friendship with Keating in March 1987.

Cindy McCain's business partnership with Keating in a real-estate development between 1986 and 1998 netted her a tidy profit, in addition to years of significant tax benefits. Her father, who died in 2000, earned similar returns.

When will McCain admit culpability and come out from hiding behind Cindy and Sarah's problems?

[UnderdogSRD]

Cindy Lou doesn't wear the same designer outfit twice, she's got to make as much as she can, anywhere she can to feed her shopping habit. She has a lot of habits doesn't she?

Why won't she shake hands with Joe 6 pack and hockey moms at their hate rallies? She puts her hands behind her back and just looks at the peasants, I mean people.

[Barackaroo]

She wore that tacky red, crocheted short sweater thing with her putrid green frock and with a few other Barbie doll clothes. Also she's too damned old and skinny to be wearing her hair down and long and blonde. Is she trying to be alluring to mcReptile??? Toooooooo creepy.

THIS is the big news of the day.

You have got to be kidding?

All these revelations about McCain's wealth and the CONTINUED connections to Keating while he was in prison, is just incredible.

And John McCain did not know about it? Boy, there is a lot that he does not know about.

And there is alot about McCain that we STILL don't know about.

I am sure this will help McCain and Palin identify with us 'common folks' in the middle class.

How can the MSM look away from this kind of stuff?

Alzheimer's can do THAT

[Workinwithu]

MSM more interested in hate/fear rallies McCain gives

[Workinwithu]

Campbell Brown of CNN has been the only one on MSM we've heard to try decency in this hate/fear stragedy from the right wing presidential campaign- She called for it to Stop because of the danger. Rest of MSM see getting ratings off it at someone else's cost.

[harriettubman]

For 3 yrs he said he was not aware of Cindy's drug addiction. Tells you what kind of marriage they have.

[SantaFeStars]

So Cindy and her father made a fortune with the disgraced Charles Keating and McCain knew nothing about it! The McCains are nothing more than artificial people with money earned from crooks!

[Felicty]

That woman is HEAVILY medicated.

[gopnot4me]

Hey ladies and gents, don't forget that Bushs' brother was also involved in the Keating 5 scandal. But, how in high heavens could anyone with an ounce of brains run for president with so many skeletons in their closets? Then to top it off, choose a woman with her own baggage in the Alaskan courts?
And I'm supposed to distrust Obama?
Give me a friggin' break!
The majority of the American public is NOT stupid, just the ones I guess that show up at your rallies!

[YunekFlava]

Wow, don't you guys just think she would make such an honorable and dignified 1st lady? Just look how sensitive, honest, forthright, gracious and just the picture of ethical superiority she is... and she is so lovely. Just look at her.

[largelingerie]

It's a GREAT picture!! I just love this!!

[TakLoufer]

It's the position her mouth was in the day John decided to dump his wife once and for all -- the wife and mother of his children who dared to get in a car accident while he was in the Hanoi Hilton being such a brave "hero" and get too disfigured for his delicate sensibilities to handle.

[Xenopus]

Cindy certainly has her own list of naughty happenings, doesn't she......I won't go over the personal ones, but her stories about running a positive campaign, cookies, family recipes, Mother Teresa, and Charles Keating...­........I would like to think the First Lady of the U.S. represents someone basically honest. I don't think that would be the case here.

[LemonMeringue]

Oh go on, tell us about the mutual adultery Cyn and Jon have going, it's all over the internet anyway.

[timezone]

I've lived in Arizona a long time and remember the Keating Five scandal. Very easy to research online, a lot of journalists have written about it, but guess they could all be wrong. I've sure Keating paid him all that money for nothing.

[genie555]

What color is her hair?

[Wilburrr]

Estee Lauder.... because she's worth it!

[trollslayer]

These people are despicable. They are quite happy to make money from being involved with criminals.

Haven't we had enough of unprincipled corrupt crooks in the White House?

[MakersMark]

She doesn't trust him with the money because he has a gambling problem. There is so much about this family that I think is unknown, untested, and the media doesn't bother to scrutinize it.

If Senator Obama had as many skeletons as these people do, they've be on him like white on rice!

[LiberalHick]

And here I thought the only skeleton McCain had in his closet was Cindy fetching his slippers.
