Let's get real here. The Obamas are worth about $1 mil and most of that money came from the sale of his books. That is hardly rich in anyone's books in these times compared to the filty rich repuglican slime machine folks.

Looking for posters from California to explain why your property taxes are so low in price.

Or is it only Cindy McCain's?

Looks like dumping the disabled wife for the "C" wife paid off well for McSame!

It didn't pay off as well as Terry has for Johnny Swift Boat. Terry is worth at least 10 Cindys.

Yeah but John didn't dump a disabled wife in trouble for a rich trophy wife.

McBush is an admitted adulterer.

Geez, when one has that many properties scattered about the country, it's easy to miss the tax bills on a few of them.....

It would seem that the dumped wife is the one with real class - for not making a stink.

Fascinating.... a bit-long winded a presentation. Get it down to 60 -90 seconds, w/ a split screen of Obama's home on Googhle Earth, then put up the text:"So who's the elitist?", and you've got a (potentially) viral campaign video.

Owning all of the "real estate" on the planet will not change the fact that the man, for good reason, looks like the portrait of Dorian Gray, and has the consciousness level of a deranged wombat :))

McCain has what, 9 different properties? I wonder how many Obama has. Who's the so-called, elitist?

About 5 minutes ago, MSNBC, for the FIRST time, mentioned this news item.

Coverage: One sentence.

Ended by saying Cindy has paid her back taxes and all is well.

WELL, WELL, WELL!

Where is the in-depth 24/7 news coverage?

Doesn't the MSM know we, voters, are very interested in housing issues and taxes?

Now we can see why one of the most important issues for Republicans in the Inheritance tax.
He seems to like to buy multiple properties in close proximity to each other. 10-13 of them.
The values of the ones in La Jolla are understated, including the beachfront one on which he didnt pay his taxes.
Yes McCain, this is a wonderful country.......for some.

I wonder if Tony Rezko gave the McCains any money for these homes?

Not sure if all of you Barry lovers actually read the details on the Rezko case or if it is just a case of cognitive dissonance......but here's the deal.......Barry bought his house for $1.4 million dollars in Chicago (yeah.....he's living with the people). On the same day......Rezko bought the property next door to Barry for $600k. Hmmmm. Then, less than a year later, he sold it to Barry for $100k.

Do you smell that?

Yes I do......

Your sorry attempt to resurrect the dead and stinking corpse of Tony Rezko...

The only thing that smells worse is your desperation.....

"I wonder if Tony Rezko gave the McCains any money for these homes?"

No, Rezko didn't but the MOB did.

Cindy's dad and his lquor business have always had MOB ties. He was CONVICTED by a

Federal jury in AZ in 1948 on 7 counts of filing false liquor records and conspiracy to hide

his "business associates" - all tied to the MOB.

Her dad was charged again in 1953 for falsifying more "business" records and

guess who defended Cindy's dad back then------ Wiliiam Rehnquist , the future

Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.

CAN YOU SMELL THAT? Hmmmm

FYI - The Obamas didn't purchase the Rezko's property in full but did buy a very

small section to enlarge their backyard. This transaction was fully vetted and

approved by the Northern Trust Bank, a very respected, world-wide, long established

conservative, Republican Bank.

"FYI - The Obamas didn't purchase the Rezko's property in full but did buy a very

small section to enlarge their backyard."

Which means that the Rezkos are still paying taxes on it. (Some might call that an ongoing bribe.) Strange, considering :"There appears to be no access from the street to the property Rezko purchased except through the Obamas' driveway. It is, in other words, the yard of the Obamas' house."
