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.

Read the whole diary on Open Left, which includes videos of Gosinski speaking about the whole ugly mess.

Digg it!

UPDATE: Gosinski is apparently releasing his journal entries from the time period in question, according to this Raw Story article.

UPDATE 2: Snud has written a diary with a lot more detail on this. Take a look and recommend.

UPDATE 3: John Aravosis writes at AmericaBlog that the Washington Post seems to have pulled an interview with Gosinski that should have been published 9/10/08. And Atrios wonders why.
