Why the Far-Left Is Using Meghan McCain as a Political Pawn
Fox News ^ | March 19, 2009 | Laura Ingraham

Posted on 04/03/2009 1:40:30 PM PDT by GoldStandard

LAURA INGRAHAM, FOX NEWS GUEST HOST: With us now is Jill Menin, a Democratic commentator and FOX News radio host, and I've known him for so long I don't want to admit, John Gibson. Both of you, great to see you.

JILL MENIN, DEMOCRATIC COMMENTATOR: Good to see you.

INGRAHAM: John, I know you have been through this. You host a radio show. When you do a show every day, you do three hours a day, five days a week, that's 15 hours to fill minus commercials. Is this an attempt to demonize and marginalize critics of the Obama administration?

JOHN GIBSON, FOX NEWS RADIO HOST: I have been studying this. When Obama has a bad day, somebody else has a worse day. You know, whenever he gets in trouble, they either roll out Bush and flog him or roll out Rush and flog him or roll out Michael Steele and flog him and then you got in the rollout.

So this -- all this is, is the politics of distraction. Let's find something else we can talk about because we don't want to talk about all the other stuff that Obama is up to his eyebrows in.

INGRAHAM: Julie, if Meghan McCain were a Republican attacking Barack Obama, do you think she'd get a guest spot on "The View" or be invited on "The Rachel Maddow Show" or any other MSNBC show?

MENIN: Listen, I think she got the spot because you targeted her weight. And you can.

INGRAHAM: No, no, no, no, no. You're out of order -- out of order. A lot has been distorted in the last week. I'm not going to let it happen on this show.

She wrote a column criticizing Ann Coulter, saying the Republican Party needed to go moderate...

After that, she'll take her clothes off for Playboy. Like Reagan's daughter.

No no..

Laura alluded to the fact that Megan McCain would be too fat for playboy..

But she didn’t exactly say it in those words.

Laura did NOT call McCain fat. She was actually slamming
people for wanting these size 0’s

Like most pop stars, she knows how to follow directions to the nearest Republican trashing, but she can’t tell us why we should liberalize conservatism. She is a Mcbimbo, a McDumbo like her McLame daddy, always looking for the camera, McVain and useless.

Waste of an interview. Laura should have kept the focus on the title topic instead of the stupid red herring about weight...

Meghan McCain engages in personal attacks upon conservatives, give it back to her exponentially.

If she would express her opinions deeper than that extra large Chicago style pizza she scarfed at lunch it would be different.

They showed her a ditz costume, she tried it on and thought she looked cute in it ... and it stands as crusty now as ...

Good thing Jill Menin wasn’t in the business when Paula Jones and Linda Tripp were scathingly attacked for their personal appearance and backgrounds routinely in the media. She’d have been one busy lady complaining about their treatment.
