You'll Pry Cindy McCain's Tax Returns From Her Cold, Alien Hands

POSTED BY: CubbyChaser

It is something of an American political tradition, the ballyhooed release of the candidate's tax returns. And these days, what with womenfolk getting out of the house and into the workforce, candidates' wives' tax returns are equally ripe for overanalysis.

Hillary and Bill Clinton have released their tax returns; so have Barack and Michelle Obama. War hero John McCain handed his returns over to the American people, too — but his wife Cindy is refusing to follow suit.

Now, why could that be?

The McCains are extraordinarily wealthy — one might even be tempted to call them "elites" — and Cindy McCain's assets are estimated to be about $100 million, including a private jet, which her husband has been borrowing at a reduced rate.

Also, she doesn't want anyone to know that she files an annual Q-4!9p3x*~259.w form. That's how Borg Queens itemize their deductions.

  1. She released her 2006 returns June 13, 2008, because she filed an extension for 2007's.
    Per the Huffington Post, they still claim a dependent daughter. HPost also includes a link to page 18 her return.

  3. one thing fer sure, she did not spend any of her cash to read the book "hello my big big honey!" — maybe because she trusts mccain wasnt involved in such *poetics* when he was languishing in the hanoi hilton

  6. Check out politicalbase.com, guys. It has the low-down on why she won't, but is obligated to because McCain is running for president.
    In 1986, Cindy and her father, "Smitty" Hensley, invested in Charles Keating's $15 million shopping center. She was the largest investor. Plus, during his political campaigns, including the 2 for president, she tapped her own money to contribute. McCain was brought before the Congress and only received a reprimand for his wife's dealings. Under those circumstances, she is OBLIGATED to disclose her tax records as a potential First Lady, and the wife of a senator.

  7. She is a member of the ruling class by birth. As a member, she is required to send checks to Obama and Clinton also. Her husband doesn't know, as he is just a hired hand. Please help have their business relationship and drop this issue.
