Obama raps McCain for ignorance of his own houses
WASHINGTON - John McCain may have created his own housing crisis.
Hours after a report that the Republican presidential nominee-in-waiting didn't know how many homes he and his multimillionaire wife own, Democratic rival Barack Obama launched a national TV ad and a series of campaign stops aimed at portraying McCain as wealthy and out of touch.

Well, first of all, he was asked how many houses he had which could be construed as a trick question so as to be safe, he referred the reporter to his staff for an answer.
Perhaps he could have retorted, owned by me, my wife, or jointly? Owned prior to or purchased during our marriage? Houses or condominiums? Owner-occupied or other?

You can't be serious? Someone is providing health care for FREE? WHERE?
>>Worked alongside republicans to create the Earned Income Tax Credit which provided over $100 million in tax cuts.<<
In most cases the EITC is not a tax cut. You can't cut the tax of someone who pays NO TAX. What it is is a handout. I freebie. Extra money out of someone else's pocket to subsidize the favored groups income. Don't call it a tax cut when it's an income subsidy.

People working and making poverty wages are considered the "favored" group?
