Oh come on. Their kids have got to be what, like 50 years old? It's not like they can't handle it.

Stay away from Meghan? Oh.... I don't think so.

"I have tried to make her understand about politics, but she doesn't understand. She is still very hurt from it. But we're a family, we protect each other and we deal with it."

So, let me get this straight. The child was devastated by the remark. In order to "protect" her and "deal with it", McCain decided to (once again) run for president but this time, keep her little dark face out of the camera's eye. Yeah. That's supportive.

Shouldn't Cindy and John McCain be nominated for Parents Of The Year?

Arthur Jumbles: Stay away from Meghan? Oh.... I don't think so.

Look at her knee! It's sharper than a ninja's sword.

...and she didn't publicly complain about then (notice how neither Bush or Rove's name appears in her response), but is now concerned about a "repeat" this year, implying that Obama's campaign would sink that low.

Party before family. Must have learned that from all those years of being married to The Maverick.

Do we also have to stay away from the one that's actually John McCain's illegitimate love child from a stripper?

/it's gotta be true
//Karl Rove told me so

Cindy honey, you're confused. It was the Republicans who attacked your children in 2000 (new window)


and it was your husband, apparently having no scraps left of his famous honor who cozied up to the men that financed that poll, and the mastermind of the strategy, Karl Rove.

of course you being in a percocet haze at the time I could see why its a bit addled.

and lest you think that last was a nasty ad hominem Here's what Cindy herself said on the subject (new window):

Mom Cindy McCain shared that, due to an addiction to painkillers, she had previously not been able to protect her younger daughter Bridget from brutal politically-motivated racial attacks on the campaign trail. Leading up to the 2000 South Carolina Republican presidential primary, opponents spread false rumors that John McCain had fathered his then-7-year-old daughter out of wedlock with a black mother. In fact, the McCains adopted Bridget from Bangladesh in 1991.

I really don't like the trend of voting for people based on whom they married or didn't marry. I want to know what someone's policy decisions are, not what their wife did or didn't do 20 years ago.

But, but, but.. it says so much about them, just like who their pastor is and what he said that one time in 1998!

/sigh

I'd rather vote or not vote for someone based on their voting record and their policy positions. whom they married is entirely irrelevant to how good or not good they'll do as president.

Arthur Jumbles: Stay away from Meghan? Oh.... I don't think so.

That's some pretty good pillow placement by the photographer.

You sir, are not an American.

If John McCain believes Cindy McCain is suitable for our First Coont, then god bless her and may the better coont win.

Not that any of that matters though...

Why is Cindy just now concerned about what the republicans did to her children back in 2000?

You've just been voted off the tubes.

Who cares what some coont who slathers on make up like a trollop says?

Sgt Otter: Party before family. Must have learned that from all those years of being married to The Maverick.



Does not approve.

I wouldn't say entirely irrelevant. Just look what Hillary Clinton has done.

ifarkthereforiam: Who cares what some coont who slathers on make up like a trollop says?

To be fair to John McCain, telling a man he is getting thin on top is the second worst thing you can say to a man.

If she really wants to help his campaign maybe she should get back in the kitchen.

You're...you're kidding right?

That he's thin on the bottom, too. Not to mention a little short.

Leave Cindy alone. Have you ever tried Percocet? I don't blame her.

Nope. Completely irrelevant to politics. Yup, completely.

Are you sure? I'd vote it.

LOL as if anybody would go after the children. That would be political suicide (unless you're Karl Rove).

Look again at that pic the Arthur Jumbles posted. I know it's an issue with perspective, but her leg looks really short compared to the rest of her body, almost like a midget -- a midget with big tits that I would totally do if I was in her league.

BooBoo23: But, but, but.. it says so much about them, just like who their pastor is and what he said that one time in 1998!

I lol'd because I don't know what it could be.

Anyway, I have to take my Hummer to go pick up a new rifle for my collection. Penis.

"Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly? Because her father is Janet Reno." - John McCain, 1998 (new window)

Arthur Jumbles: Stay away from Meghan? Oh.... I don't think so.

She's cute, but looks too much like John. It would get a little creepy.

If McCain's daughter was born in Bangladesh, doesn't that mean she was born a Muslim? So now she's an apostate, right? And middle eastern leaders will hold that against McCain or some bullshiat like that? I think someone should write a New York Times op-ed exploring this subject...

siva: Leave Cindy alone. Have you ever tried Percocet? I don't blame her.

That Maverick wouldn't support Israel.

You kicked that Strawman's ass, Cindy!

Now, what naughty naughty things have your children done that have to be hidden?

eddyatwork: Arthur Jumbles: Stay away from Meghan? Oh.... I don't think so.

Look at her knee! It's sharper than a ninja's sword.

she has knees?

on another note, where'd the whole McPancake thing originate?

Zing! I'm a pretty much a left of left liberal, but if he broke out that joke in a national debate I'd consider voting for him.

Arthur Jumbles: I'd hit it. I like a girl with curves. As long as she kept her mouth shut. Same with the Bush twins.

And when I was done, I'd face Mecca and pray to Allah, just to freak them out.

FTA:Washington is a company town. When I first met John, and the story has been told a lot, we both lied about our ages. But, truthfully, I never even noticed that he was that much older.

Yeah, sounds like they're a real pair of standout ethicists and full of the moral superiority it will need to lead our nation for the next 4 years, or 2 and a half...

sokolnikov: Zing! I'm a pretty much a left of left liberal, but if he broke out that joke in a national debate I'd consider voting for him.

I like Janet Reno, but the thing that bothers me about the joke was that he was targeting the children of opponents. Totally out of line, and perhaps Cindy should've focused upon her husband's tendency in this regard.
