'Kay, scout. Does your opinion come down to the idea that either everyone is too compromised ehtically to be suitable to be US president, or nobody is?
I agree that Obama's house purchase arrangement smells, it bears much more scrutiny, but it isn't the financial basis for the entire launching of his political career, and it hasn't netted him $50 to $100 million, as overwhelming evidence documents that McCain's ethical lapses have.
Why is it that Sam Giancana's description of his son-in-laws "lot", described on PDF page 128, here:

....do not apply similarly to James W. Hensley's son-in-law, John McCain?

So..... why are any of you willing to "hire" John McCain as your president? Is it simply because McCain and his father-in-law have kept a lower profile about how they got what they got, than Sam Giancana and his son-in-law did?
If it isn't right out in front of you, it isn't there? I've tried to make you look. scout, McCain's father-in-law's background isn't about cheating on his IRS filing. It's about everything associated with what he was into, and the people he was into it with. On the gambling and book making end, it;s about sending people to make threats and break legs when the losers can't or don't pay gambling debts, it's about working for a mob king pin for at least 8 years, a guy who is a well documented unindicted murderer of an investigative reporter, and it's about intentionally hiding an equal partner from a New Mexico state racing commission application hearing inquiry, because the guy was an operator of the former Al Capone gang race wire, working for their mutual employer, the race wire owner and mob king pin, and also hiding the partner because, weeks before, he incurred a hefty civil judgment for drugging and rolling a wealthy Californian who he lured into his backroom gambling operation in a restaurant he operated.
It finally is about receiving the benevolence of the mob king pin in the form of the opportunity to own a primary top brand beer distributorship as a reward for taking two sets of arrests and a federal felony conviction while performing duties at the king pin's liquor distributorship monopoly, and ending up with a
nine figures net worth.
I'd love to read an explanation on how it's different in this instance.
I'd be surprised to see any challenge against the evidence I've presented about the origins of McCain's financing and poor judgment, similar to the challenges I have posted against ngdawg's evidence.
