Meghan McCain: Joe the Plumber "Is a Dumbass"

[zulchzulu]

This is going to be a lot of fun watching... :popcorn:


Sam The Scab trying to impress Meghan with one of his "fag" jokes

Meghan McCain ripped into the man who rose to stardom during her father's failed presidential bid as a "dumbass" who should stick to his day job.

From Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin to presidential also-ran Mitt Romney, here are some Republican candidates who could vie for the White House after President...

"Joe the Plumber -- you can quote me -- is a dumbass," she told Out.com. "He should stick to plumbing."

During an interview with gay rights magazine Out, the daughter of former presidential candidate John McCain, a same-sex marriage advocate, blasted Ohio plumber Samuel Wurzelbacher, who said in May he wouldn't allow "queers" near his children.

"Homophobia is the last socially accepted prejudice," McCain told the magazine, calling gay equality "my generation's civil rights movement."

McCain, who has taken Republicans to task for their anti-gay marriage views, said she would "be flattered to be considered the anti-Ann Coulter, the anti-Rush Limbaugh."

1. No shit.

[iconocrastic]

26. She's a dumbass herself.

[Clio the Leo]

2. I wouldn't let Joe the Plumber anywhere NEAR my turlet.

And if I had a clog, I'd call Barack Obama.

After the way he's fixing this country after Bush flused it town to toilet, he can fix anything.

[izquierdista]

3. Who is her speechwriter?

Red Foreman?

[phleshdef]

4. I wouldn't be surprised that as she becomes more politically aware...

...that she eventually becomes a Democrat or something of the sort. She knows something is wrong with the philosophy of her father's party, she is probably just too afraid to admit it to herself at this point.

[Kookaburra]

6. She's just stating the obvious

Doesn't take a mental giant to figure out joe the plumber. I wouldn't count too much on Megan McCain.

[Mike Daniels]

15. Does she think her dad's a dumbass as well?

After all, "Daddy" is the one who elevated JTP to the national stage.

[Froward69]

13. I agree

She gets insulted from her fathers party and told to STFU every time she writes or says something. eventually she will become confident enough to stand on her own.
I watched her on real time (Bill Mahar) she was tossed a hardball when she said "well i was not alive then so I really do not know about that." the other guy (i forget his name just now) said "well I was not alive during the french revolution either, but I know about it."
I forget the topic. However these type of lumps will mold a formative voice...

but as she plays the game and comes out from beneath the shell her parents have raised her under. I am confident she will become a voice to be reckoned with. for now she is young enough to have the insecurity we all had.
As we all know republicans discount brains inside a woman that is fat. (Megan McCain) and they claim brains inside a skinny woman.
(Sarah Palin) sooner or later Megan McCain will realize this and defect.

17. 'the other guy' was paul begala. he was right if a little harsh.

she'll get her feet under her and might make a splash. i think she's just being loyal to dad as a republican. she could outgrow that and become a dem or she could change the republican party. either way, i think she could be as asset to either side, once she gets seasoned. she seems to have the courage of (most of) her convictions. a pro-gay republican is not a bad thing. heck, some of the gay republicans aren't even pro-gay. :eyes:

[Blasphemer]

21. She knows and admits it:

"I don't relate to the hard right," she admits. "I think it's time to reinvent the Republican Party. And I think my dad can do it."

Of course, she's wrong about her father but that is to be expected.

[BlooInBloo]

5. For *her* to say that, is quite a thing.

:rofl:

[ecstatic]

7. Did she mention that the sky is blue too?

And what are her views on Sarah Palin?

[zulchzulu]

8. She should refer to him by his real name, Sam The Scab n/t

[alsame]

9. Unfortunately, she doesn't make the logical assumption

that her father was also a dumb ass for making JTP a part of his campaign.

[Jennicut]

10. LOL. Poor girl only has it half right.

[City Lights]

11. Tell that to your father, Meghan.

He's the one who made him famous.

[scheming daemons]

12. Next from Meghan McCain.... "Water is wet"

[vaberella]

14. She's a dumbass, her father is one, her mother is one, her dad'd veep is one and so it goes.

She needs to get a clue.

[Phx_Dem]

16. Unfortunately for Meghan, so is she.

[mitchum]

18. Meghan The Heiress vs Joe The Plumber

they are both dumbasses

[shaniqua6392]

19. You have summed them up perfectly.

They are both a little crazy too!! :crazy:

[zonkers]

22. starring GoldIe Hawn and Kurt Russell (1985)

[TheCoxwain]

20. OMG .... Here is a Republican .. who speaks truth !!!!

[Cha]

23. Sure he is, meghan..he supported your father,

didn't he?

[zulchzulu]

25. Why didn't she pipe up about Sam The Scab earlier? She sure went for his groping hugs campaiging...

The funny thing about Meghan McCain is she thinks, like Sarah Palin, that she is the "future" of the Republican Party.

She should just hope the old man has her in the will and fades out.

[old mark]

24. Hey, Meghan:

So's yer daddy!

27. I'm in the minority here, but I like her

She's on my very, very small list of of Republicans I actually like.

[Leo The Cleo]

28. She right and she's wrong!

Discrimination against gays isn't America's last "Accepted prejudice." It is terrible, but America accepts much more than just anti-gay sentiment.
