Sen. McCain: Meghan Wrong on O’Donnell

Meghan McCain is a moron, she proved that in 2008 when she went on and on about the hate and negativity coming from Republicans but said nothing about the hate, race baiting and negativity coming from democrats. She’s an idiot and if it weren’t for her dad no one would even give her a second glance and certainly wouldn’t care about her opinion.
I have a lot of respect for John, but I don’t often agree with his positions – like amnesty!

John McCain is passing the torch to a new generation of Republicans Sarah Pallin and Christine O’Donnnell, when he should consider passing it to an even younger generation of Meghan McCain who seem to make more sense drawing the party to being more centrist and tolerant.

I think Megan has been brain washed by liberal college professors and is more liberal Democrat than a Republican.

McCain always shows leadership, and common sense. One of the very few in Washington, I can respect.

Meghan McCain is a spoiled brat, an elitist, having grown in the freest and best place to live in the world (thanks to her father) but she has been brainwashed by the progressives and she is being used by the liberal media to bash conservatives.

You may really dislike and disagree with Obama.But McCain is losing it mentally and Palin and O’Donnell are nut cases. of course, you so called “conservatives” think brain dead Regan was a great President. You know,the guy that opened the borders to illegals, out-sourced our industry and broke the US budget.

And O’Donnell has yet to visit all 58 states. She would never make a good democrat!

It’s amazing who they interview and expect and objective answer. I guess they’ll next ask Whoppi to write a bio of Bill O’Reilly or ask Levi Johnston to write one on Sarah Palin.
McCain knew the economy was falling apart in 2008 but when Bush said, “The economy is sound,” McCain said, “The economy is sound.”
If McCain feels he needs to say the Sun rises in the West to win, he’ll do so.
So why is any of that one interview, at the height of a reelection campaign, being paraded as news, day after day?

Meghan is yet another RINO liberal who would rather change the republican party than join the democrat party.

McCain claims that Republicans are fiscally responsible. Please take a moment to a beautiful graph of how the Dems ran up the national deficit at zfacts.com/p/318.html

John McCain responded the way many American parents do when they recognize that their child has adopted opinions that are not derived from real life experience and that once the CHILD gets a taste of REAL LIFE, their opinions and decisions – like who to vote for – will change (Older people with life experience vote Consertive Republican more often than not.).
Megan McCain was born with a silver spoon in her mouth. Her parent’s pay for everything. She has NEVER had a job like you or me and therefore, cannot relate to the everyday struggles of the average American.
On the other hand, Christine O’Donnel grew up the way you and I did, and while she may never have “run a buisness,” she has first-hand experience with overcoming challenges – something Megan McCain has never experienced.

Well, Ms. O’Donnell just proved Sen. McCain wrong. In the Delware radio debate this morning, she had no idea that the Constitution mandates separation of church and state. To gasps and laughter from the audience, she repeatedly asked, “You’re telling me that’s in the Constitution?” Meghan McCain was right: O’Donnell doesn’t have even the most basic education to be a U.S. Senator.

How can anybody here who’s been paying attention say that Obama hasn’t reached out to Republicans? That’s why 40% of the stimulus was tax cuts. Republicans wanted ALL tax cuts (not even infrastructure spending or emergency worker aid, most of them). By the way, except for Arlen and the Maine ladies, all Republicans in Congress voted against the stimulus, and continue to say that it was a mistake or failure, despite the fact that economists say that it has had a positive effect. Don’t let their ribbon cutting and backslapping at project groundbreakings fool you. We have to remember that the point of the stimulus wasn’t to bring ALL jobs back, but to stabilize the economy (8% unemployment prediction was ill-advised considering nobody really knew how bad Bush messed things up at the time, but the Obama team did make that mistake).
Anyway, despite attempts to work with them, Republicans believed that they alone had the answer, tax cuts, and that nothing else should be done. How much worse would the economy be if we’d listen to them? 2001 and 2003 “tax cuts” only worsened the deficit & debt and didn’t make us any better for it. We’re still at that tax rate, but it doesn’t seem to have made much of a difference, has it?
Anyway, Republicans have voted against not only that, but Wall Street reform (they were against that before a bill was even written – according to McConnell and Boehner). Amazing considering what just happened less than 2 years ago. Yet, somehow, they claim to also rail against the bank bailouts/TARP, which THEY voted for under Bush – which, by the way, was formally ended BY this reform bill, which they voted against as a bloc. Dodd and others reached out to Republicans, but for some reason, they didn’t see a need for a federal consumer watchdog agency, despite the market meltdown and all the different bubbles that bursted, including credit, housing, commodities, stock manipulation/mischaracterization, etc.
Healthcare reform, necessary because insurers have abused their privileges to provide coverage, was dragged along for a WHOLE year, because Obama and Co. were trying to get bipartisanship on this important issue. Snowe and her trigger option BS never panned out. All those other Senators with their various ideas got their say. It wasn’t single-payor universal healthcare and didn’t even include a public option, which if it were so liberal, it would have been included. But because the president and others are such poor negotiators, that wasn’t included. Instead, what you have is a mandate on buying PRIVATE insurance (not a gov’t takeover with DEATH PANELS like some lying neocons said), with no hard cap on premium rates – basically a giveaway to big business and Pharma. Anti-business, my butt. Repeatedly, Republicans pretended to be for 80% of it, then they said scrap it altogether, then they got to add their BS amendments to water it down further, then voted against the damn thing, anyway, all the while crying that they weren’t being listened to when in its origins, it’s Hatch/Grassley’s answer to Hillarycare – center-right BS.
On energy legislation (which hasn’t happened in both houses), Obama threw away bargaining chips as he all of sudden became pro- deepwater drilling in March, when in 2008 he went against the Drill Baby Drill crowd and said we can’t drill our way out of or energy problems (and we can’t – most of our oil derives from overseas and trying to replace that with what’s in our presumed reserves wouldn’t fill our current energy needs). Before he even got to the table, he was wooing Republicans, because he was so naive as to believe they could be counted on to work with him on anything. We saw what happened in April, though.
Republicans have held up unemployment benefits for people who have PAID into that – it’s not welfare, btw. They have voted against aid for state workers (teachers and emergency services) – even when it was a balanced bill that took away some food stamp money in the future. As a bloc, they’ve voted against tax cuts for small businesses, supposedly one of their most important constituencies throughout this recession, but it passed with one Republican, after 3 months of waiting.
Republicans have pretended this whole time to care about bipartisanship, but look at their voting records and look at how Obama has tried to reach out on EVERY BILL, only to water down the legislation and still have them vote against it. Somehow, that’s the only way you can be seen as being bipartisan, by the votes, not the efforts.
All Republicans wanted to do was run down the clock and vote against everything to prove him wrong – SEE, he couldn’t change things – “SEE, he didn’t listen to us, look at how we voted, NOT the actual legislation for inclusion of our ideas” – and to ruin any probability of success to say “Well, they didn’t know what they were doing (nevermind the mess we made that needed to be cleaned up on so many fronts), you guys should be pretty angry at all the partisanship and sharp rhetoric which we created the environment for, now vote us back into power.”
Sounds cynical, sure, but if you’ve been paying attention the whole time, it’s easy to see how Republicans have not only been playing politics, as irresponsible as that could be in this time of economic crisis, but have been repeatedly throwing away opportunities at working together. Not only that, but they have the nerve to call this guy a zealot or socialist. Liberals are mad at him because of how much he has courted the GOP and conservatives, only to get slapped in the face, EVERY SINGLE TIME, while not passing legislation and policies that do not only comes from a liberal idea, but look liberal on paper and practice, as well. That’s the change we needed from the Bush years.
And the transparency isn’t there. Bipartisanship could’ve waited until we got GOOD bills that took immediate effect. Everybody’s upset about the economy – except rich people – but liberals are upset with Obama for not taking the GOP to task more often and for acting like a moderate Republican (despite what the nutjobs on the right have been saying).

John McCain has been thru hell, has a great wealth of experience and I would feel better if he were president instead of the liberal college professor/community organizer with NO experience in this hostile world. Meghan is a spoiled brat who embarrasses her father just to get attention. She’s pathetic!

to DonMN: Meghan goes after Palin and O’Donnell because they’re a couple ditzy extremists who could never win a general election. Anyone who disagrees with the extreme right is “left” of them, but not necessarily a liberal. Republicans will have to appeal to more people than right extremists, but at this time, there is no candidate who can do this. People will buy a fiscal conservative, but are bored with the loudmouth social conservatives who present no ideas on how to fix real world issues. Republicans could gain ground if they separate their districts from federal handouts and SHOW the country their theories work.

I’m 74 years of age income less than $35,000 for both my wife and Me.
No SS increase again this year.
CPI does not take in account devalued dollar. As you know is purchasing power.
Health Insurance went up $50.00 a month ffor my wife and I. A $1,200 a year. Oil prices are up and food prices are up.
Do not surpress telling people this.

Doesn’t anyone care that Christine O’Donnel has not had a real job in years and has run for the senate 3 time in the last few years…don’t you deserve to know how she has made a living? To run for Tparty all you have to say is “Jesus, freedom and no taxes”…don’t you think they know that and will say it every time a camera is pointed at them. Joe Miller is so afraid to answer questions that he hired body guards to kidnap and hold journalist asking QUESTIONS!!!! Does that seem right to you?

Meghan McCain…”is like a valley girl…or like she talks one, well like you know what I mean!”
And what is Meghan McCain’s accomplishments other than writing a book and making the talk show circuit?
Her dad is a well known name in politics, and Meghan McCain is finding attention by roading on her dad’s coat tails. What exactly are Meghan McCain’s grand accomplishments that she has the wisdom or even knowledge or privilege to call Christine O’Donnell a nutjob. Meghan McCain is a conservative like the Pope is Jewish.

Who is the biggest nut-job, John McSlob, or Christine O’Donnell?
Enquiring minds want to know.

LLEN – Going to college and being exposed to a different type of thinking is brain washing? Wouldn’t brainwashing actually be your parents raising you without ever letting you know there are other views? Also, define how America is the “Freest” country? It is free in that religious minorities can’t build a house of worship where they want? Or that gay people don’t have civil rights? Or that we just extended civil rights to black people 50 years ago, and women 90 years ago? If you compare us to other Western countries you will see that we are not “freer”, if that is even a word.
D – The fact that Megan Mccain was born with a silver spoon in her mouth is what makes her the ideal republican.
Ed – Great spelling “drewl”, clearly you and Ms. O’ Donnell are much brighter than Ms. McCain.
Greyghost – You probably had the silliest post on here, you don’t think any one other than President Obama had anything to do with creating the health care bill? I heard another person crying recently that Obama doesn’t play nice with republicans and he doesn’t compromise. What happened to the single payer system for health care? That was scrapped right? Isn’t that how a compromise works? I give up something I want and you give up something you want, but we actually get something done? Republicans just seem to hide in their turtle shells and cry “it’s not fair” when anyone proposes anything they can’t sell to their constituents.

To add to Gary’s comment that CO does not have the basic education to be a senator.. I am not certain she has the basic education to be a citizen… how can you be American and not know about the separation of church and state… it practically defines the United States! What has become of the country when we entertain such ignorance let alone get such ignorance this close to becoming a senator with power. I may be Republican but I cannot ever endorse stupidity and cast a vote for it… She is an American embarrassment.

I was very disappointed in George for just showing snippits of the First Amendment discussion with O’Donell. It seems no matter what political party they just have to make the litle woman look stupid. Giving the entire discussion on the First Amendment would have shown the man was short on knowledge, but we can’t have that now can we. Sexism is alive and well in American politics.

Megan has hit the nail on the head with this one, just as she did with the other moron Sarah Palin

Poor John McCain. He has become pathetic. No longer the maverick, he thinks he must defend every Republican candidate, no matter how much of an embarrassment they are.

Kinda funny how as soon as the liberal press finds out that McCains “nutty” daughter sways to the left they all want to interview her and attempt to give her credibility. I’m sure megan likes the attention.

think Megan has been brain washed by liberal college professors and is more liberal Democrat than a Republican.

Odd you would said Ms. McCain is brain washed simply because she’s statimg the obvious which is Christine O’Donnell is a nutjob. She can add Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann and Sharron Angle to the list also.
