    She's trying to hide her mob connections through her family's beer distribution business. And that's why the two of them have always filed taxes separately--to keep that away from John.

      Evidence, please.

      You insist that anyone who speaks ill of Sen. Obama must have evidence.

      I am insisting on the same standard for Sens. McCain and Clinton.

        The Hensley Family had a ton of shady/illegal dealings with Mob figures involving liquor distribution and horse tracks.

        The key people her father had dealings with were Kemper Marley, Sr., and Clarence "Teak" Baldwin.

        Marley, a mobbed up "businessman" was widely thought to be the the person who ordered the Car bombing of a Arizona investigative journalist(Don Bolles) who was digging into his illegal activities.

        http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Don_Bolles

        And Clarence Baldwin was a convicted bookmaker with heavy mob ties. Who was a full partner with Hensley for Ruidoso Downs Race track.

        Cindy's father even had a felony conviction in fact for falsifying liquor records, and concealing the existence of his mob connected business partners in Ruidoso Downs. The felony conviction should have stopped him from even being allowed to create the Hensley booze empire, but for some reason he was allowed to create a liquor distribution company as a convicted felon.

          Continued:

          These facts are all widely known(at least to those in Arizona over the age of 40), as McCain was grilled over these mob connections during his first congressional run in 1986.

            McCain himself even sent his regards(by telegram) to Joseph 'Joe Bananas' Bonanno for his 90th birthday party in Arizona in 1995.

            A sitting congressmen sending his best wishes to the head of the Bonanno crime family...

              I would call that 'asked...and answered'

              TY for the info

              ---

              Are connections to a loudmouthed preacher with a clean record more damning, or being married to a bunch of mob money?

              I'm sure this lack of transparency will not translate into another secretive presidency tho. uh-huh...

              Hopefully enough people will get smart come election time and counteract the automatic GOP voters and the 'party of God' religious folks.

              some of those folks, and there are a few in my family, listen to their TV minister and vote accordingly regardless

              It's how Bush got re-elected

                "You know, my husband and I have been married 28 years and we have filed separate tax returns for 28 years. This is a privacy issue. My husband is the candidate,"

                I like that last sentence a lot

                'My husband is the candidate'

                yet her husband, the candidate, had no issue with exploiting a slightly less intimate relationship, which unlike the McCains had no illegality in it, the Obama/Wright relationship

                white washed walls and hypocrites

                his legendary flip-flopping alone is enough to disqualify him, let alone his continuation of Bush's policies and this stuff

                I guess I should rest easy and be assured he won't get elected, but I dunno

                Voters seem to weigh with a very strange scale and value system

                  dern

                  I forgot to add that that was why McCain courted minister Hagee's endorsement

                  despite Hagee's nutty ideas

                I remember when McCain sent birthday wishes to Joe Bonanno, wasn't too long ago, i wondered about it, and why it was just disregarded as the norm.

                And the Kennedy fortune was made importing alcohol and beer during Prohibition. If you're a Dem that doesn't bother you.

            You mean because she doesn't actually have to state where the money came from on her return?

            Where there's a record of income and of money paid out--at the very least on Schedules A, B and C--there's a starting point for an enterprising reporter to trace where the money comes from and where it goes, even if it's not specifically stated on her return.

            In addition, when dealing with mob money, there's always a question of money laundering. Again certain indicators of questionable sources and destinations of her money would show up in a detailed tax return, though it would take further investigation to prove exactly what those sources and destinations were.

            Remember, Al Capone was finally convicted only of tax evasion.
