Spencer Pratt: John McCain Is Helping Us Go To Iraq

Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt, star of MTV's "The Hills" reality show, sat down today's "Extra".

Montag, whose late stepbrother served 3 years in Iraq and Afghanistan (he recently died falling off a roof in Colorado), is planning a trip to perform for American troops stationed in the Middle East. Heidi says, "My brother was an airborne ranger in Afghanistan and Iraq. It's very important to me and important to Spencer to support the troops and go over there."

Montag also talked about her budding friendship with presidential hopeful Senator John McCain's daughter, Meghan, commenting, "She's very sweet. We have a lot in common." The pair were photographed last week dining together in Los Angeles.

But how will they get to Iraq? Spencer Pratt said, "I think Meghan McCain is helping organize Heidi and our Iraq trip. Her dad definitely has some pull with the military. I think she's going to put that together for us."

Back in April John McCain called Montag a "talented actress" after she said she planned to vote for the Arizona senator.

Sorry girlfriend, the troops definitely don't want to see you and your pretty boyfriend. You want to support the troops? Enlist!

Please do send them to Iraq. Hurry! Please! and just make sure it's a one-way trip.

If they really wanted to go to Iraq why didn't they just enlist ? Whoever they are the modern day Army takes anyone and they all wind up in Iraq.

This sounds like Hulk Hogans conversation with his son in jail about publicity and royalties.

[jiggystyles]

Thses two need to join the military instead of being chased by papparazzi they should duck & run from terrorist.

[Topfeeder]

Finally, a McCain initiative I can get behind. How about sending that Hogan family to Iraq too.

[scorpioleidy]

I just heard on the news that AG Mukasey wants the Congress to Declare War on al-Quaida so that our country can keep detaining terrorists!

Sounds like something McCain would love to have happen!
