Cindy McCain Stands Against 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell,' and Her Husband
ABC News ^ | Nov. 12, 2010 | Devin Dwyer

Cindy McCain has delivered a double-barreled rebuke -- to the military's "don't ask don't tell" policy -- and to her husband, one of the policy's leading supporters. She chose as her forum a new anti-bullying public service video sponsored by a California gay and lesbian rights group.

...Her appearances, totaling less than 15 seconds in the two and a half minute film, are interspersed between those of other celebrities, who also decry policies and attitudes that condone anti-gay bullying.

Well, I guess she’s a nut. Of course, when you’ve got that much dough, re, mi, you can be nuttier than a walnut and still get away with it.

My take is that MacDaddy didn’t have as big a problem with this as most folks might think.

I am sick and tired of wives of elected officials spouting off like this. Nobody elected Cindy McCain, Maria Schwarzenkennedy, or Hillary Clinton (not counting NY senate seat). They are not vetted by anybody. If there are any husbands doing this they should STFU too!

Doesn’t she thinks gays will be bullied LESS if they don’t announce they are gay in the military?

Cindy McCain Stands Against 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell,' and Her Husband

Not really against her husband. Well, really it depends on what month it is, and whether Juan is running for reelection. From February of 2010:

A former war hero, McCain said he would support ending the ban once the military's top brass told him that they agreed with the change.

McCain appears to shift on 'don't ask, don't tell'

But soon after that, when he was challenged by Hayworth in his senate reelection campaign, Juan had a change of mind and decided he was full bore against the repeal.

So, now that he's hoodwinked Arizona for another six years, I don't think he and Cindy will have any big falling out over her recent statements on the subject. I think he's back to the flip stage of his flip/flops on this issue

Once upon a time, Cindy was a pill-head, remember.
She needs excitement. John leaves her alone most of the time, and she’s probably become a fag hag in order to stay amused. Just a theory.

Rest assured, this was all approved and scripted by her husband.

Nah....This is a typical “Moderate” household. Senator McCain says one thing, Mrs. McCain says the opposite, and Meghan is the voice of experience and reason.

If I were a public figure and my wife made public statements
contrary to my own position- there would be immediate separation perhaps leading to divorce on grounds of incompatibility. People expect a union —a man and his wife
acting in agreement —not two people unequally yoked.

It should be noted that if Cindy and Meagan McCain weren’t part of McCain’s family and weren’t speaking out against DADT, no would pay any attention to them.
