John McCain had a senior moment on Wednesday when he said “that he was uncertain how many houses he and his wife, Cindy, own.”

“I think — I’ll have my staff get to you,” McCain said. “It’s condominiums where — I’ll have them get to you.” McCain responded in an interview with Politico.

Virginia Gov. Tim Kaine poked fun at the sheer lunacy of McCain’s statement saying “He couldn’t answer that question. He couldn’t count high enough, apparently, to even know how many houses he owns.”

The real question is, how can the American people take McCain’s economic outlook seriously? The Republican presidential is obviously so out of touch with reality and the American people that he’s

For anybody who thinks McCain has the interests of the American working class on what’s left of his mind, here’s a video entitled McCain’s Mansions which was released last week by Brave New Films and SEIU…

John McCain’s trashy ad campaigns keep stating that Barack Obama’s policies are a recipe for economic disaster but in reality it is McCain who is a human disaster because he obviously has no clue about the economic hardships facing millions of Americans since his oil worshiping contemporaries took office almost eight years ago.

Following President George Bush’s State of the Union address last night, Sen. Barack Obama proceeded to slam the Bush administration saying Bush was full of “empty rhetoric” and also stating “I do not believe history will judge his administration kindly.”

You have to give Obama credit where credit is due. The guy really knows how to light a fire and he’s constantly proving he’s not going to back down from anybody, especially George Bush and his corrupt administration. Last night’s speech from Bush was rehash of his empty promises made year after year and each year into the Bush administration the economy has continued to worsen. The majority of Americans feel disenfranchised by the current administration and promises of Bush cutting more taxes only helps the wealthy leaving the middle class to foot the bills. In the meantime, the honest Americans who make up the middle class are finding themselves deeper in debt and working endless hours to make ends meet.

  The former Republican congressman from Michigan, Mark Deli Siljander, who served two terms in the House of Representatives and was appointed by Ronald Reagan to serve as a delegate to the United Nations was charged with money laundering, conspiracy and obstructing justice for allegedly lying about lobbying senators on behalf of an Islamic charity that authorities said was secretly sending funds to terrorists.

A 42-count indictment which accuses the Islamic American Relief Agency of paying Siljander $50,000 for the lobbying was unsealed in the District Court in Kansas City, Mo. today. The alleged money that Siljander was paid turned out to be stolen from the U.S. Agency for International Development.

Mark Deli Siljander takes an interest in conflict resolution, particularly in Islamic countries, and in recent years has tried to publicize the common ground between Christianity and Islam, particularly in the Koran’s portrayal of Jesus. This is a turnaround from a previous position in which he objected to the Koran being read at a prayer breakfast, asking the emcee: “How can you read the book of the devil at a prayer breakfast?”

Siljander is widely traveled, and claims to have visited over 120 countries. He is also one of the few American politicians to have visited Libya in recent years. Siljander was born in Chicago, Illinois, where he attended the public schools, graduating from Oak Park-River Forest High School in 1969. He received a B.S. from Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo, Michigan, in 1972 and a M.A. from the same university in 1973. He served as a trustee on Fabius Township Board in St. Joseph County, Michigan from 1972–1976 and also worked as a real estate broker.

In his 1986 run against Fred Upton for his incumbent House seat, Siljander had attracted controversy with his strong religious convictions. At that time, he issued a tape recording that asked local fundamentalists to help “break the back of Satan” by praying and fasting for his re-election.
