FREEPERS: "News Bulletin: Busch to Resign?"
Posted on Sunday, October 26, 2008 9:06:10 AM by Candybar

It has been rumored that Obama's henchmen have approached Busch's staff. The topic is that Obama has asked Busch, in the best interests of our country, to resign immediately after the election.

It is said that there would be a couple weeks for President Busch and his wife to collect all their things. Obama, it is said, has graciously offered to fly them to anywhere they coose!

Osam thinks he has this election sewed up. He is wrong.

McCain is going to snatch it away from Obama in a tight election! The Osama people will be up in arms!

15. Does this have something to do..
Edited on Sun Oct-26-08 09:45 AM by stillcool47
with Cindy McCain whose family made their fortune with Anheuser-Busch?


As heiress to her father's stake in Hensley & Co. of Phoenix, Cindy McCain is an executive whose worth may exceed $100 million. Her beer earnings have afforded the GOP presidential nominee a wealthy lifestyle with a private jet and vacation homes at his disposal, and her connections helped him launch his political career — even if the millions remain in her name alone. Yet the arm's-length distance between McCain and his wife's assets also has helped shield him from conflict-of-interest problems.

Nearly 30 years before John McCain became the Republican presidential nominee, he worked in public relations at his wife's family company.

Within a few years of marrying Cindy Hensley, the daughter of a multimillionaire Anheuser-Busch distributor, John McCain won his first election. He was new to Arizona politics and fundraising in the 1982 House race, and his campaign quickly fell into debt. Personal money -- tens of thousands of dollars in loans to his campaign from McCain bank accounts -- helped him survive.


Among earliest donors
Anheuser-Busch's political action committee was among McCain's earliest donors. Cindy McCain's father, James Hensley, and other Hensley & Co. executives gave so much the Federal Election Commission ordered McCain to give some of it back. McCain's campaign used Hensley office equipment such as computers and copiers, and Cindy McCain personally paid some of the campaign's bills.
