Meghan McCain, MSNBCs newest contributor with a growing laundry list of outlandish comments to her credit, appeared as on Wednesdays Tonight Show. During the broadcast, the quirky McCain compared herself to conservative icon President Ronald Reagan, asserting that if he were in the presidential race today, he would be called a dirty moderate like me, unfortunately.
McCain, who identifies herself as a big proponent of same-sex marriage, said that her views have isolated her in Republican circles.
People dont think Im Republican enough because Im a big advocate of marriage equality in this country. But Im very proud to do it. My mother joined me. You know, I just its one of the reasons why I love being in politics. I just think this is my generations civil rights issue.

She never went to college. Barely finished college. Great credentials for a political pundit. WTF? She should think about going to beautician school.
Bleached hair, fake boobs, and back fat do not a Reagan conservative make.
Her beer heiress mama is bankrolling her otherwise it would be “Megan who?”
Oh, you're plenty Republican, Meghan...just not at all conservative.
Having two homos getting married, as absurd as that concept is, they can pretend they're married in their little make-believe world, and not use the force of government to make the rest of us comply, forcing us to give them the same benefits as real married couples, and impeding on religious freedoms and rights of association and free speech.
And that is the agenda of the gaystapo, to attack Christianity.
Ronnie Jr maybe?
This old nose would have to have a crack at both of ‘em before a decision could be rendered....
Calm yourself, Meghan honey, have another piece of chocolate cake. It will make you feel better.
She’s talking about the President’s tutu wearing moonbat son, no?
You are not a moderate. You support perverts and perversion Nothing moderate about that..........
“I am not sure that anyone can be as stupid as Megan McCain.”
You must have missed the clips of Obama when the teleprompter went offline.
Meghan McCain, you would not know Reagan Conservatism if it kicked you in the butt. Come to think of it, I’d kick it if that’s what’s needed.
I mean, uh, you know, like, um, ohmygod!, um, you know, like, for sure.
Guilty!
"... And then Meghan totally cleaned out the hotel fridge and minibar. So, you got any money to help out a vet?"
I could care less about McCain - but I have said on occasion when a Freeper pulls one vote, or one comment on a decent candidate and then calls the person a RINO - that I seriously think Reagan would have a hard time getting elected. Or at least getting total agreement by Freepers on the internet.
Lots of things Reagan did in his past and as president that wouldn’t have made the grade if taken individually.
As Governor of CA, pushed for ban on open carry of guns. (Black Panthers on the courthouse steps and all).
As former President, endorsed passage of the Brady bill.
Divorced. (gasp!!!!)
Turned tail and ran from Lebanon after the Marines were bombed.
God only knows what would have been dug up on him when he was a Democrat.
Reagan wasn’t perfect. None of our candidates are. And it gets frustrating when we rag on someone when they are only 80% “right”.
While some of these single-issue things ARE very important, I’m not sure that some comment, or a minor vote based on that one issue should turn the person into a “Rino”.
while everyone is figuring out what is conservative and what aint they could chew on this

I believe Reagan and the Federal gov played a part in un winding this ...
Question :
How conservative was that?
