I like Meghan McCain. At least, I don’t hate her as much as other Republican commentators. She seems like a pleasant enough person, a bit foolish, a bit shallow, perhaps not overly intelligent or insightful, but I don’t sense the meanness in her that the others have in such abundant quantities.
Meghan McCain
Yeah, she’s got a bit of a weight problem. For a long time, I was among those saying “Hey, hater dudes, stop saying she’s fat. She’s got a very pretty face.” Then I saw her on TV. See, as long as you just see her from the neck up, she’s a fine looking lady. But, let’s face it, she’s pretty fat. Like, almost Kirstie Alley fat.
But, there’s no crime in being fat. I’m not exactly skinny myself.
And she’s trying to make it as a political commentator, not a model.
The problem is, she doesn’t know shit about politics. In an interview with Playboy magazine she said that the Republican primaries have been lame up to this point , but she hopes things get better.
She said she hoped one of the candidates would be able to channel the outrage of the Tea Party and OWS movements, as if those were at all connected. Also, she sort of overlooks the fact that Gingrich and Santorum are channeling the outrage of the Tea Party.
She spends some time moaning about how things would be jazzier if her dad were running. Not really, Meghan. Your dad lost pretty handily last time and he’s even older and presumably more senile now. He still just wants to bomb everybody, and his major importance to American history will be as the guy who lost to Obama in 2008. The Stephen Douglas of our times. Stephen Douglas. He was a shorty, too.
Then she says that it might energize the youth vote if Chris Christie is the vice presidential nominee. Oh, yeah. I can see what she’s thinking. Mitt needs somebody likeable, charismatic on the ticket so they’ll forget what a dweeb he is, so he chooses Christie, whose whole shtick is calling people idiots while he commandeers state helicopters to take him to his son’s little league game.
You might even say that Christie would weigh the campaign down 🙂
No, Meghan, you really don’t understand. The Republican primaries haven’t just been a little bit lame, and it’s not just that the 4 current candidates are a bit lackluster, and no hero is going to step forward to save the party. This is really the best your father’s party has to offer.
I understand that you sort of were born into being a Republican, and you’d be nobody without your last name and so you feel loyal to the team and I suppose that’s admirable.
But Republicans are waging a war on women, and you’re a woman.
They are horribly racist and anti-gay and you seem like a friendlier person than that.
They are war mongers. I know you love and look up to your father, Meghan, but, Jesus, listen to the guy some time. Bomb this. Bomb that. He’s nuttier than a fruitcake.
In conclusion, Dear Megs, these are not your people. Leave the dark side. You will feel better for it. Really.
