Although I am a member of the Democratic party, there is nothing in that article that I think has any relevance to the election or anything that would cause me to reconsider my vote that isn't said better elsewhere.

In fact, the only thing that I can draw from this article is feel that I can only describe as "This is a guy that decries gay marriage?"

He's a politician. Deal with it.

That's because she plasters make-up on like a trollop, the khunnt.

Okay, enough of the John McCain harrassment. I hate him based on his position on the issues. Attacking him on his marriage is petty and stupid.

/I may not know smart but I know stupid.

 
HansensDisease [TotalFark] 2008-07-04 12:39:04 AM  
As long as they remember to pay the taxes on all those different homes I don't care.

/I wouldn't want to live with either one of them.

Can we shut up about Cindy McCain and Michelle Obama now?

Why does nobody seem to care that John McCain can't remember what he said yesterday, and that Barack Obama is okay with granting immunity to the telecoms? Aren't those issues more worthy of discussion?

Yes, because we've NEVER seen a marriage of convenience in the White House...

Some Democrats seem to have a problem with strong women like Cindy McCain and Hillary Rodham Clinton.

Seriously, danlpoonMcCainDemocrat, get a new alt. I'm probably one of the few who is amused by your incessant trolling, but you slipped up a few times, and everybody knows it now.

Come up with something new, like, I dunno, Hellbent for Dogs in the Afternoon or some such, and keep on fighting the *snerk* good fight.

I couldn't give two farks about McCain's marriage. What I DO take offense at is the fact that Cindy McCain's company distributes crappy beer.

So what does this have to do about the presidential campaign of John McCain? Nothing? Well, move along then.

 
atomsmoosher 2008-07-04 07:46:17 AM  
So they have a commuter marriage? Don't most folks in the House and Senate keep their spouses at home for most of the year while they live in DC?

Hell, with his umpteen houses, he's probably never sure which to go home to.

Cindy McCain is so plastic, I am convinced that she is a fembot:

Exactly.

This is pathetic tripe from the DailyLoss. The right wing looks just as foolish when their fanatics do this to Obama. Sad.

Meanwhile, McCain is still crying like a little girl about how General Clark hurt his feelings.

 
5_second_rule 2008-07-04 08:13:45 AM  
shame on dailykos for even letting that mess see the light of day. besides i think hillary's marriage is much worse. i mean she stayed with a serial adulter so she could get her shot at the presidency and poof all gone.

oh yeah plenty of people are rightly concerned about Obama's vote on FISA. just go to mybarackobama.com and there's online group of 15,000 that are against telecomm immunity. don't bite the hand that feeds you b rock.

I'm voting for Obama, I dislike McCain with every fiber of my being, but there was nothing newsworthy about that hatched-job of an "article". It should have remained in the writer's diary under his/her mattress. What a load of crap.

The McCain marriage is their business.

 
Prospero424 [TotalFark] 2008-07-04 08:58:59 AM  
Okay, now Daily Kos is quoting Ted Sampley?

"Vietnam Veterans against John Kerry" Ted Sampley?

Jesus.

I know it's just a random contributor's diary and nowhere near the homepage, but it's still pretty damned pathetic.

drhansenej:I dislike McCain with every fiber of my being

I agree with your distain for this kind of crap being float out by BOTH sides, but that quote seems pretty hard. Are there that many of his policies you disagree with?

I'm still undecided, though registered GOP. I'm not a big fan of McCain, and am getting less and less impressed with Obama. Good thing there are months and months to go.

submitter:John and Cindy McCain have a fakeGOOD marriage since they don't live together

Think about the concept. The ladies can have the bathroom fitted with tiny soaps - & lots & lots of frilly towels without the menfolk wiping their butts with them.
The men can live in rooms full of empty beer bottles & pizza boxes and scratch themselves whenever & where ever they please.
Everybody wins!

 
varmitydog 2008-07-04 09:33:35 AM  
I read this before a while back and thought it was a slam job, so went looking up what Cindy McCain was all about.

Turns out she's a rich woman who is using her wealth to do a whole lot of good. I run across women like this every so often, and while they can be superficial and annoying they are also of the finest sort. Wish we had more Cindy McCain's in the world, warts and all, because folks like her make it a better place.

 
randomjsa 2008-07-04 09:36:09 AM  
A few weeks ago it was dirty politics and wrong to attack Michelle Obama... But the same people who registered that complaint have not stopped harping on Cindy McCain.

By the way, look up all the good Cindy McCain does for charity and then compare her to Michelle Obama... Then come back, apologize for EVER saying anything bad about Cindy McCain and start point out how worthless Michelle Obama is by comparison.

Call me old fashioned, but I like to have sex with my wife every so often. However, I do realize that after 14 years hitting the same honeypot isn't as fun as it used to be. If the marriage can survive adults remaining committed to each AND having regular 'friends with benefits' AND STILL cooking and cleaning up behind my sloppy ass, then we can live in separate places. She will get the back rubs and I'll listen to her complain about other people.

But you know what? If the wife would deal with that, then she is just there for the money or afraid of being alone.

Hmmmm, I just remembered an old couple in Vancouver, BC that had separate apartments next door to each other. The wife would cook and they would eat together everyday. Maybe it could work, but I'm cynical.

Then you take the wife out on a `date'. The ladies love that romantic horse-shiat.

You are not allowed to say anything disparaging to or about him. New Fark rule.

Love Boat:Let's see...

First, go after John McCain's service in Vietnam (which is unnassailable).

Second, go after his nice wife relentlessly (who regularly uses her good fortune to help others the world over, w/o making a big deal of it BTW).

Third, accuse John McCain of wanting to 'send kids to die' in Iraq (though his kids are there).

Fourth, mock and ridicule his age (thus alienating as many baby-boomers and seniors as possible).


Yep, that's a winner...


You're right. I'm so not voting for Kos now.

 
shamanwest 2008-07-04 09:53:39 AM  
I am guessing that Ivv (author) is bitter about all the "Hillary and Bill's marriage is fake" that has been coming from the right for years, and feels the need to do the same with John and Cindy. I base this on the fact that Ivv is an admitted Scorpio and Scorpios are known to be very vindictive.

In any case, the article is full of fail. I don't really care about his marriage to Cindy McCain. I care about his courting of the religious right, the lobbists, et al. Those are the relationships that concern me.

While I agree the attacks on Cindy McCain are lame, last time I checked Michelle Obama isn't a billionaire heiress with money flowing out of her ass. I'm not sure what your point is other than to slander an Obama. Dumbass.

I understand your point, but slipping the wife a roofie doesn't have the appeal it used to. She knows my tricks. The last time she put Preparation H in her pooper and it burned me good.

To bad you're more comfortable with your hatred for blacks than you are with voting for a candidate who who thinks women aren't paid as much as men because they just aren't as smart.

 
FunkOut [TotalFark] 2008-07-04 10:09:10 AM  
So he married her mainly for the money. What else is new? John Kerry had the ketchup cash from his wife. Theresa Kerry is a raging alcoholic, Cindy McCain used to steal pain pills. Cindy would have been better off as an alcoholic, I mean, she could probably get all the free beer she wants.

My husband doesn't really know what McCain looks like (we're Canadian) and when I pointed him out on the news he said, "Holy crap. That guy looks like he's ready to keel over and die." I'm not seeing McCain really being all that up to having "romantic" time with the wife.

 
ilambiquated 2008-07-04 10:11:47 AM  
America is a very bigoted country. Americans really hate women. It didn't quite dawn on me until this election cycle.

I'm turning totally feminist. That's my lesson for this year.
