cindy mccain's half sister: "i'm voting for obama"

Published Aug. 29, 2008

 DENVER (AP) — Cindy McCain's half sister says she will not vote for Republican John McCain and plans to cast her ballot for his Democratic rival, Barack Obama.

"I have a different political standpoint," Kathleen Hensley Portalski said in an interview with "Us Weekly," published online Thursday. "I'm voting for Obama."

Portalski said Obama's proposals are "more positive and I'm not a big war believer."

Cindy McCain and Portalski have the same father, James Hensley. He founded Hensley & Company, the Phoenix area Anheuser-Busch distributor. Cindy McCain is heiress to her father's stake in the company.

E-mails and a phone message left with John McCain's presidential campaign were not immediately returned.

 

DARN!!! MCELDERLY CAN'T EVEN CONVINCE HIS INLAWS TO VOTE FOR HIM!

Just One Opinion-still, I'd rather have my half-brother in Kenya (that people tried to use against me) say that he draws inspiration from me and that I will be president than my wife's half-sister say she's voting for the other guy.

so ?

A Ringing Endorsement - - "I think I kind of like it here"

Who's loading his lips?

jodybruchon-why don't you go listen to his speech? Because people keep saying that he never defines his change (although he has time and time again) last night he said here is the changes that I mean, followed by a long, pretty specific list.

Let me know when Obama actually decides to publicly explain the "change" he "hopes" to engage in. I can't bring myself to vote for someone who won't even say what he'd do in office, other than in vague generalities like "help the poor" and "fix health care."

I'm not voting for McCain either, though. What we need is a third political party to stir the pot, and the career politicians that have a history of screwing everything up and passing tons of pork legislation to be booted from office. Send 'em a message that we'll toss them from now on if they don't do what the constituents want instead of what they want.

Here's the "other side" of the half-brother story, from the mouth of obama's half-brother: http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/08/22/bts.obama.brother/

The reports left him angry.

"I was brought up well. I live well even now," he said. "The magazines, they have exaggerated everything.

"I think I kind of like it here. There are some challenges, but maybe it is just like where you come from, there are the same challenges," Obama said.

But George Obama will have none of it. He draws inspiration from his famous half-brother. He acknowledges that he is biased but said he knows that his half-brother will be the next president.

Darn, if it were my half-sister I would run for whomever she wanted as long as I got free beer...

"Plus, most old people are bigots."

I'm sure the irony of that statement is lost on you.

This is a woman who so eloquently stated, "I'm not a big war believer."

Well, isn't that special. And what are your views on the economy? Read any Jacques Ellul lately? How about Dr. Suess?

How do I push the elderly to vote for him? I am making light of his age... I am sure there aren't many "elderly" folks skimming through this website, and if they are on here they are Republicans. Plus, most old people are bigots.
