Last week Palin dismissed the Bush family as “blue bloods” but Meghan McCain, who admits she's one, says the media star is a playing a dangerous game that will tear apart the Republican Party. Welcome to the echo chamber! This week's (or possibly month's) latest rhetorical talking point is "blue bloods." And guess what? In the way it has been used I am probably considered one and so is the entire Bush family, not to mention countless others. And who else would deliver such a catchy media talking point than, yes, Sarah Palin. The reference to "blue bloods" was made after former President George H.W. Bush and his wife Barbara said in an interview that they thought Mitt Romney was essentially the man to watch in 2012, followed by an extra zinger from the notorious straight talking former first lady Barbara Bush who said she thinks "Sarah Palin should stay in Alaska." Sarah Palin responded on the Laura Ingraham radio show saying "of course they think that, the Bush's are blue bloods."
I actually had to Google what the meaning of "blue bloods" was, although I could surmise that it was some kind of knock against education and coming from a family of some success. Yes, in essence that is what this statement meant. Families that work hard and achieve a long line of successful people are "blue bloods" and thus, she implied the opinions of said people are jaded and elitist, even if that family lineage has a long history of public service and leadership within Republican

blue blood = establishment
.. as in, “Sit down and shut up. We know what’s best for you, and we will do what we deem best whether you agree or not.”
Only difference between establishment RINOs and demonRAT leftists is how they would divide The Pie and who they hang around with.
Meghan, fat and stupid is no way to go through life.

If they ever re-create The Muppets using real people, I know which role she would be perfect for!
My mother is a “blue blood.” New England heritage. Father was richer than god. The best schools. White glove parties. “Help” at Christmas dinner. She spent time in college and in Boston with people who’s names you would equate with “Boston Brahman.” I cannot tell you how many times I’ve heard that the Kennedy’s were “prohibition” money. My Grandmother actually referred to blacks as “Darkies.” When she was in the nursing home, she thought she was back at the Breakers, and tried to tip the nurses and aides all of the time.
My Mom’s family pretty much disowned her when she married my country bumpkin Vermont Farmer Dad. She did not care. But I grew up around these people.
I know Blue bloods.
Meghan McCain is no blue blood. She is the nouveau riche. Buffy ain’t fat, baby.
The true blue bloods are laughing at McCain for her pretension. They are also horrified that the rest of the world might think McCain is one of them.
I believe you are right. It seems these uh...ladies are purposefully trying to engage Palin in a low level pissin’ match.
You win by ignoring them.
I disagree! Even with her last name, she is still nobody!
Supposedly the commoner's response was along the lines of: "You are indeed a descendant - but I am an ancestor."
They just don’t seem to get it -
we don’t care if they are “elite”, have a long line of wealth and education behind them. We have no problem with people of this “class”.
We DO have a problem, though, when these people see it as their duty to impose their “superior vision” on the rest of us.
Jefferson was elite. He was not elitIST.
Use him as your example, “blue bloods”.
Chunky Einstein there had to google “blue blood” lol. Gosh, how would we survive without her opinions and wisdom. *gag*

I get a kick out of the “blue blood” phrase. Crustaceans have blue blood. Vertebrates have red blood. Insects have white blood. : )
You are right, Joe, Nicole, Meghan etc. are trying to get in a pissing match with Palin. She needs to ignore them it is obvious what is going on. Palin’s last post on facebook was perfect. TAlk taxes and quote Sowell. You cant argue with stupid.
Her comments are just to poorly thought out to bother commenting anymore. She did pic the right blog to write on. The Daily Beast pretty much sums her up.
Mehgan’s HDL/LDL ratio is too way out of whack to be a blue blood. Her bad cholesterol appears to be off the charts.
This is the picture on the Daily Beast.
This is a news photo from Washington D.C.
I don't know about you. But it doesn't look like the same person.
Are we really sure this is the same Meghan McCain?
You know John McCain's daughter?
OMG! I can’t stand this girl! What a complete idiot she is!
This McCain girl needs to get a life. She makes all of these nutty statements about people of accomplishment while she is still wiping her nose on orders from her mother.
