Meghan McCain: "I Don't Understand Why In This Industry Of Politics, I Am An Airhead."

The Washington Post has a front page piece on John McCain's bubbly daughter Meghan. The article addresses what Meghan refers to as certain misconceptions about her.

"I don't understand why in this industry of politics, I am an airhead," says Sen. John McCain's daughter on a recent Sunday at the Enchantment Resort in Sedona, Ariz., not far from the McCain family's weekend home. She occasionally strokes the blond ponytail that lies over her shoulder like a mink stole. "I'm so sick of being called dumb because I like, you know, movies and music and fashion."

"She's really articulate," says her friend and fellow "blogette" Heather Brand, who's sitting nearby.

"Thanks!" McCain says with a joyful giggle.

Gaeee, yeah. Go figger.

Sorry to break it to you folks, but she is a TYPICAL twenty-something. Despite graduating from prestigious schools, most of them are so, you know, like, um, WHATEVER. Not a sexist thing either, the guys are all like DUDE! DUDE? But what does a 48 year old guy like me know? I'm old enough to be her dad (oh, wait......­..........­.)

She's his daughter, she didn't ask to be a politician's daughter. It's low class to trash her. Keep up the trashing furthering a lot of us who aren't seeing much of a difference anymore between our side and the right wingers.

Join the Army Meghan, go to iraq and fight your daddys war! In fact all you McCrazy backers should at least pay extra taxes to make up the trillions of dollars we have borrowed from China that our grandchildren will have to pay to fund this ridiculous bullshit war.

Meghan. Roll over. Fetch. Woof woof.

[PioneerKing]

For shizzle Meghan-izzle's a dizzlle.
Chick's so ditzy she doesn't even know better than to ask such a stupid question. Only makes her look like a ditz.

I think she's more of an idiot savant... no one else calls politics an "industry," but that's what it has become. It's always the "C" students who say the darndest things!

[jp5472]

Yes, how true!! Look at (and listen to) George W, probably the highest powered C student in the history of human existence. I can hear Art Linkletter's voice hosting now...

I think this is a smart woman, who just sounds stupid. She has adopted that valley girl affected way of talking that is so unappealing. I just cringe when I hear young women talking this way.

[JayZee]

This is a joke, right?

[LeoMarvin]

Her timing is fortunate. If she was following Chelsea, this stuff would be good punchline material. But the Bush girls make her look like Ruth Bader Ginsberg.

[Bendersky]

It's the "you know" part.

[briefer]

I'm not sure we need to get involved in this. You remember how all those conservatives spent all those years making fun of the president's "ugly" daughter? That was petty and insulting; so is this.

[buddhistMonkey]

She doesn't understand why she's an airhead? That's the very definition of an airhead.

[isis]

Which mother is she from? I get his women mixed up.

Just out of curiosity, what has this 22 year girl done to you that you feel compelled to make such a snarky comment? I think I have finally figured out what really attracts the Obama supporters. You are an incredibly jealous bunch and you have to tear everyone else in order to feel good about yourselves. That also explains the media fascination.

[WoodyCPM]

Take your meds, please.

[EBennett]

And I suppose you are an oil painting. Yet another insightful and valuable comment from an Obama supporter. The one thing that absolutely defines every Obama supporter on this site is your jealously. You don't want to talk policy, you just want to make crass, snarky little comments. And now you pick on McCain's daughter. What a grownup you must be.

Ask Karl Rove, he's a finger on the pulse kinda guy.
