A man of the people

By Creature

Rich people humor:

Standing on the patio of Gallagher's home, McCain made his usual fundraiser jokes about being welcomed "into this modest, middle-income tract home." After Gallagher murmured about the possibility of a tax break, the senator continued, "These public housing projects are quite remarkable."

And, the home John McCain is referring to:

Gallagher's home abuts a country club golf course and is located just a couple of houses away from that of Denver Broncos owner Pat Bowlen. It featured the usual trappings of a fancy estate: gurgling fountains, manicured topiaries and elaborate fencing.

At least McCain wasn't making such jokes in $500 shoes. Oh, wait. Well, at least the media is mocking him for his expensive taste in footwear. Oh, wait.
