Covering up Cindy McCain's drug use

By Michael J.W. Stickings

Matt Stoller:

A whistleblower is coming forth against John and Cindy McCain, and the picture he is painting is not a pretty one. You've probably heard about Cindy McCain stealing prescription drugs from her charity in the 1990s. Today, Tom Gosinski, her former employee and a close friend of the McCain's, came out on the record about the entire sordid episode. And it appears that McCain used his Senate staff and resources to cover up Cindy's drug use, and potentially to prevent the Drug Enforcement Agency from investigating his wife's theft of illegal prescription drugs. John McCain certainly used his political connections to begin a campaign of intimidation against Gosinski...

Maybe the mainstream news media can get their heads out of their Palin-obsessed asses and do a little reporting on this.

If McCain wants the election to be about character, after all, well...

Bring. It. On.
