Talk about the apple not falling far from the tree.
Senator John McCain had been noted in the past as being a straight talker. I think that this aspect about him was sadly muted during his run for President. That said, it seems that the penchant for straight talk can also be found in his daughter, Meghan. Meghan McCain spoke Saturday at the national convention for the Log Cabin Republicans and presented a new face for the GOP: a conservative that is forward looking on issues like the environment and gay rights and yet able to hold on the core values of the party.
In her speech, McCain isnt simply calling for Republicans to use old ideas with new technology ala Twitter and Facebook. She is calling for the GOP to start to wake up the current realities, a says that there is soon to be a civil war within the GOP. Here is a sample of what she had to say:

Sounds like you a rejoicing in this, Paulbot by chance?
If she is, the GOP can have her.
oh yeah & she’s just having her time in the sun her 10mins- i don’t even give her 15, kind of like an annoying flie swat it once & then slap it down.
Meghan McCain is a nobody.
Maybe the reason Meghan is so chunky is because she drinks all of her mother’s BEER! Hey McCain family, give us some of that Budweiser. Maybe they could not represent the USA as the first family but they are part of the king of beer family. Booze peddlers.
You beat me to it, I was just going to say the same thing, one of the core values being family values. I know several conservatives who believe in allowing gays to how do we say it? “Live and Let Live.” But when you are pushing for churches to have to legitimize the homosexual way of life as being a holy union, sorry, nope, just not gonna do it. In this case of a social issue, they are turning it into a zero-sum game.
I think those who are still clinging to the Republican fantasy had better face up to the truth - Meghan McCain and the rest of the sorry Frum-Kristol-Brooks axis ARE the future of the Republican Party, i.e., it has no future.
The noob poster certainly favors posting the Rinoette’s news articles.
I don’t know why we give her the time of day!
Any ticket with a McCain on it won’t get my vote.
27 posts and not one reply, hmmmmmm
I haven’t posted nearly as many Meghan McCain articles as rabscuttle385. They’re no big deal. They gets lots of replies because everyone here dislikes her. People sign up for the “Meghan McCain truth file.”
Since when did the Republican party become the party of the Valley girl? Thought all of those folks voted Obama. Who knows, the way she is talking Meghan may have too.
Our future Megn McCain ping!
Loves Ron Paul, detests Alan Keys and has a thing for Pit Bulls and doesn't respond to posts
I know rabscuttle, rabscuttle is a friend of mine. You are no rabscuttle
You mean the plus-size model?
