ClarusVisum,
AGAIN, you do what you always do and that is to take everything out of context or misconstrue it to mean what you WANT it to mean. This CARTOON says exacly what it should say and has nothing to do with McCain OR Obama's net worth. It has everthing to do with TAKING something that is NOT yours to giving it to someone else who didn't earn it! But then again, I forgot, that is simply FAIR to you!!
My wife and I make together (AGI) of a little less that 100K. When Obama gets done with the 250K, 200K and 150K people and realizes he just won't have enough money for his giveaway programs it will be MY turn next to "spread the wealth" which I don't have and guess what, it still won't be enough so no matter where YOU fall in this scenario, he WILL get to YOU and then let's see just how fair you think it is!!

"It has everthing to do with TAKING something that is NOT yours to giving it to someone else who didn't earn it!"
Translation: "Taxes should be abolished. People should pay for their own cops, fire fighers, schools, and roads. If you can't afford it, too bad--you have to "earn" everything, there are no rights."
You and your wife PUT TOGETHER make less than $100k, and you SERIOUSLY think Obama's tax plan will hurt you more than McCain's? Talk about being under-informed.

First off, McCain isn't worth 40 million. Cindy is. And they have a pre nup. Since you seem to know everything, How many houses does Nana Pelosi have? Has anyone ever asked her?
And this cartoon has to do with personal wealth as far as Obama actually earned that 150 million in a month. Any objective observer with a modicum of intelligence could figure that out.
Obama was asked by Howie Dean to share some of his "wealth" with the party for local races. He refused. When he found out that his illegal alien aunt had donated $260 to his campaign, he graciously returned it. But no more. He has a Half brother in Kenya who lives in a shack on 3 cents a day. How has The Annointed one helped his blood relative? Even Jesus would have shown him where to cast his net.

"First off, McCain isn't worth 40 million."
Lie #1: http://money.cnn.com/galleries/2007/moneymag/0712/gallery.candidates.moneymag/4.html
"Cindy is."
Lie #2: Cindy's net worth (as estimated in 2007) is about a HUNDRED million. (Source: http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/04/18/politics/main4027276.shtml )
"He has a Half brother in Kenya who lives in a shack on 3 cents a day."
Lie #3, addressed in my blog nearly a month ago ( http://clarusvisum.blogspot.com/2008/10/george-obama-live-well.html ):
"...the story is hardly as sensational as some made it sound. As background, Obama and his half-brother, George, share a biological father, Barack Obama Sr., but have different mothers. The father left when Obama was 2 years old, and he was raised by his mother and maternal grandparents in the U.S. and, for a few years, in Indonesia. George grew up in Kenya. Neither had their father as much of a presence in their lives. The two met briefly when George, who is about 20 years younger than Barack, was very young.
After the Italian Vanity Fair story was reported, a CNN correspondent caught up with George Obama and interviewed him on camera. When asked about the brouhaha about his economic situation, he said that the media reports made him angry, adding:
George Obama: I was brought up well. I live well even now. The magazines, they have exaggerated everything ... There are some challenges, but maybe it is just like where you [the reporter] come from, there are the same challenges." -- http://www.factcheck.org/askfactcheck/is_obamas_brother_really_dirt_poor_in.html

You know clivus, I'm not even going to argue with you, Even though you really should read more than just the headlines on the links you reference. But these were ancillary points anyway. The real point was...
"And this cartoon has to do with personal wealth as far as Obama actually earned that 150 million in a month. Any objective observer with a modicum of intelligence could figure that out."
