You know so what if McCain owned nine houses???????????? Studies show most people own five houses on the average in a life-time. He is in different locations as a US senator, so????????. I live in a home that is really ( in my opinion) very nice. A local doctor once owned it. I mentioned to him we bought the house. He said " Oh, that little, house in my community. It is by the country club, abd 3,000 sq feet. Not huge, but, nice enough size. He had to think back. My inlaws have lived in the same house, bought, and paid for since the seventies. My husbands younger brothers have owned many. Could McCain also have Real Estate. How many houses has Obama owned. So, McCain, had a hardtime remembering. He is old, and I am sure he has owned many homes. Big woope Doo. BTW, I like Bush, and people will be held responsible for the evil, they have spoken against him. People should read Romans. He has done many good things. My mind is not controlled by the media.

What is bad about america being socialist? Canada for example has nation wide healthcare which seems to work, and that is called socialist healthcare

That's why when they need surgery or Chemotherapy they RUN to the United States and have their surgery, recuperate and are back to work before they could even get an appointment in the first place in Canada


Maybe this will explain socialism a littel more clearer to most people. You work hard in college to get all A's. Stay up late, write papers that WOW your prof's. You are on track to make a name for yourself. Your room mate is too busy partying and sleeps through half their classes and is squeaking by - just bareley passing. But the school comes up with a PLAN to help those who "can't or won't help help them selves to do better" They take away some of your grades and "give" them to your room mate to help them out. Is that Fair? Not to you - but your Room mate LOVES it!! That is Socialism!
