Cindy McCain Divests from Sudan

Started by baratunde aka jack turner · 1 year ago

Wow — you have to wonder that John and Cindy McCain had to be exposed by the press before the family decided to stop profiting from a genocidal, criminal regime linked in the past to Al-Qaeda. Ummmm, right… especially since Barack Obama divested all Sudan-related stocks or funds last year.

Several Democratic and Republican candidates ... Continue reading »

    Yeah, I'd like to see full disclosure, but you know as well as I do that there are different media standards for the McCains as opposed to the Obamas or the Clintons, for that matter.


    Trust me, if Cindy McCain's investment ties to Sudan weren't exposed, the media would still be harping on Obama's book deals, which haven't netted him one tenth of the McCain's or the Clinton's net worth.



    And if the Borg Queen can't retire her own campaign debt out of their 109 million she has (cause Wild Bill can make that money back with a few speeches and a Wal-Mart Directorship), she has no right to expect Obama to help out, considering if the shoe were on the other foot, she'd tell him to blow it out of his arse.

    Where can we find a list of funds and stocks that have investments in Sudan?

    From the AP article:


    ""Considering Democrat candidates, including Barack Obama, had the very same type of holdings, it is the height of hypocrisy to attack Senator McCain and his family," said Republican National Committee spokesman Danny Diaz said."



    Keyword: HAD As in "used to" , "not anymore"....



    They got rid of those funds A YEAR AGO! Why so slow, Cindy?

    Yeah something about this is really fishy. They have something to hide I think. She probably has lots of stock in companies that are profiting off the Iraq war. I bet thats the case.

    Well I'm not going to have anything to say about it other than its about time and good for her. NONE of the people in power have done one thing about the genocide in Darfur. Just like Bill Clinton ignored Rwanda, each and everyone of them in DC know have ignored Darfur, deferring it to the UN, as if it has any power to stop the mass killings and rapes.

    And she wouldn't have done anything either if she didn't get caught. She gets no props from me!

    This is the type of stuff that DNC could be focusing on. Instead there are still dancing around with Hillary.


    If Michelle did half the shit that Cindy has done, it would be OVER! for Obama. Cindy's been in and out of drug rehab, stole pharmaceuticals, slept with McCain while he was still married to his first wife...



    Double standard? Uh. yes.



    On a different note, here's one for ya...





    Hillary's Downfall.
