Cindy McCain's $300,000 Outfit
Reader Comments
Did Cindy Mccain use taxpayer, bribe, lobbyist or political machine money to buy those items?
Michelle Obama got a $100k raise after her husband (Barack Hussein Obama) pushed through millioions in FEDERAL (OUR) tax money to her employer. Where's your outrage, Schlesinger?
Are you one of these hacks who scream for higher tazes but NEVER gave back YOUR tax rebate? Do you even pay taxes or are you one of those guilt ridden journalists who's accountant gets you off paying nothing?
And Eleanor Roosevelt, Jackie Kennedy, Tipper Gore, Theresa Heinz-Kerry and many other democratic political spouses were wealthy. Did none of them wear jewelry and designer outfits? OF COURSE THEY DID!!
Did you go after them? Of course not...
Address This!
You should address the comment about Michelle Obama's charity work because she has been committed to several organizations . I found it interesting that the comment was made regarding all of the charity work that Cindy has done over the last 6 months because true charity does not start based on the potential of a spouse in office- we should all be committed not for show, but for give. I am disappointed in the American people I have many times felt that our country feels more like a county- be better.

Not everyone who drinks is a drunk. Alcohol is a commodity in the world, enjoyed best with friends, family, food, and conversation.
Cindy's outfit...
Different levels of income will see this differently; however, I think it's horrible that someone would spend this much money on one outfit. This would buy two homes (of the one I have) or several automobiles or many, many meals for the hungry. It would pay for a dying child's wish, shelter for numerous abused animals, or cancer treatment for someone in need.
I understand Cindy has done many charities, but this is a HUGE disappointment to me. I sure wish she had come out with a lesser outfit and give that money to someone else in need.
The amount is probably not much to her, but it sure is to the middle-class and even more so to the poor.
Double Standards.......
People gave John Edwards a bad time for a $400 hair cut. Said he was out of touch didn't they??? Hmm...... Guess we should take a quote rumored to be said by Marie Antoinette.... "let them eat cake"
You know they say dazzle them with BS
Cindy can't impress people with her ideas or brainpower so she buys a pretty dress and some big shinny diamonds and goes to the party. ... Of course I wonder what she was wearing when she referred to Palin's foriegn policy to be solid because "after all Alaska is right next door to Russia.
You go Cindy. But, did you drink to much of your own beer?
