People in Detroit hate nothing more than the Toyota Prius, because it is made by the “Orientals” in awful Japan. And unemployed blogger Meghan McCain, it so happens, drives one of these vehicles because she is a close friend of the Japanese President, Hirohito. Last week, John McCain tried to denounce his “daughter” by telling the local media that Meghan bought the dumb car herself, which is of course a lie, because Meghan McCain has no personal source of income. [Detroit News]
She will own the car for 5 AND A HALF YEARS.
What about her turning tricks at McCain “fundraisers”? That’s not income?
WALNUTS and Fatty Meghan lying????????
That’s unpossible
” “I’ve bought American literally all of my life and I’m proud,” McCain said. He told The Detroit News editorial board in 2007 that he drove a Cadillac CTS ”
Way to be a man of the people, Johnny.
teebob2000: Nickels and dimes don’t count.
The speech in South Carolina has to be on tape. So then we’ll have him telling the truth in S.C., then lying in Detroit on tape. Somebody get to work!
To be fair, this is only one of her 7 cars.
teebob2000: That’s turning out the vote I can believe in
Your ignorance is appalling. Japan doesn’t have a President, it has a Prime Minister. And his name is Admiral Tojo. Or Charlie Chan, something like that.
Oh, and Meghan bought the car on EBay from an anonymous Inuit seller.
I’m glad the auto workers are getting mad at consumers for not buying the gas guzzling crap being put out by Detroit for the last 20 years. Good place to vent your anger.
jinmoom: Cindy proudly drives a stretch monster truck Hummer… that way when she’s coked to the gills she just runs over the other cars instead of getting hurt.
teebob2000: Yeah, that’s what I was thinking. “All the traffic will bear” as the saying goes. ‘Unemployed’ covers a multitude of ‘jobs’.
Didn’t anybody ask him how many cars he owns??
Her first road trip is going to be across the “Bridge to Nowhere”
Detroit, call us when you make a car that has better gas mileage than a Toyota Prius and a higher resale value than a Honda Civic. Until then, STFU and good luck not going belly-up in 15 years. Help us help you; don’t make crap cars and we’ll buy them.
John McCain is a billionaire and buys his daughter a Prius instead of a Hummer? Just admit McCain. It will make you seem a little more like Larry David and a little bit less like Mussolini.
This is what I can’t for the life of me understand about Rovian Republican tactics. If there is anything that could possibly make them look benevolent or even a little bit nice, they will instead threaten you with a gun and Jesus.
This is all a plot to make the Prius uncool.
Maybe he could have straight talked them with some “If any of the mongoloids that run your corporations had the foresight to build anything other than 2 mile a gallon tanks, maybe she would. As such she had to go to Japan to compensate for the failures of Detroit.”
But then that wouldn’t help him grub up votes in a swing state.

Also that Detroit news station is WXYZ?
WTF.
She said “Theenks but no theenks to the Detroit lobbyists”
user-of-owls: All I know is don’t fuck with ‘em, or they’ll call Godzilla, Ultraman, Gamara, and a whole mess of obnoxious high-voiced kids to control them.
“Aieeee! The guns! They do nothing!”
grendel: Cindy drives a Lexus with the vanity plate “MS BUD.”
But her blonde hair color is made in the US and A, just like her mother’s.
Vanity Smurf: The 2009 Walnuts! model comes with every panel pre-dented, just like the war-and-cancer-scarred face of great leader!
Vanity Smurf: The family Hummer’s reads “BEERNUTZ”
jinmoom: Except for the FIVE AND ONE HALF YEARS when he couldn’t buy American…well at least without the help of his “captors.”
Johnny Zhivago:
Soon to be renamed the John McCain Memorial Bridge to Nowhere.
Vanity Smurf:
One would think OXY PPER
Cindy McCain killed research into a new engine that ran on prescription drugs… too much competition.
…kinda ironic that someone who flies around the country in a 10 mile per gallon personal jet then goes and buys his daughter a hybrid. And anyone who references Al Gore will get a round house bitch slap(he buys offsets)!
…and speaking of fuel, oil is now trading at 96 dollars a barrel. I wonder why? Maybe because we have an election in 5 weeks?!?!?!
Vanity Smurf: So does that mean Meghan’s plate is BUD LITE?
loudmouthredhead: ManchuCandidate: No, guys, that really is her plate. It’s been spotted around Scottsdale for years. I am not making that shit up. Although BFLO CHP might be a good one too.
loudmouthredhead: True dat. But you have to hand it to Tokyo. They have a unique approach to ‘urban renewal.’
“Meghan McCain has no personal source of income.”
I thought that cunt was a successful “writer” of children books and popular blahhhgs?
Repubs still use the terms “Japs” and “rice-burners”.
Hate is not a family value.
Hunter Gathers: Yeah, she doesn’t even make enough to tax under the McCain plan.
Japanese cars are often referred to as “Rice Burners”
The Vietnamese captors of John McBush ate rice.
Simple to see why he hates it.
AngryBlakGuy: al gore!
Isn’t budweiser made in Brussels now? Cindy’s selling foreign beer.
AngryBlakGuy: It’s because the refineries that buy and use it are shut down and can’t take delivery. Simple lack of demand. This is also why gas prices are increasing. Simple lack of supply.
I understand that if a website like Megan’s is so fortunate as to get one of those big, pink premium wallpaper-type advertisements, it really pleases the readership and could be worth millions.
MS BUD plate:
elitist nytimes article
Vanity Smurf:
(Jaw Hits floor)
Maybe it’s someone who’s either proud of her Pot growing abilities or named her car for her Clitoris.
AngryBlakGuy: Too bad the price of oil seems to have no relationship to the price of a gallon of gas. It’s up 40 cents here in the past few days.
he will throw his own daughter under the bus, so extreme is his lust for power …
user-of-owls: That’s anonymous Snow Arab, not Inuit, you filthy librul! Haven’t you learned anything from the Palin Doctrine?
If Cindy drives a Lexus with the vanity plate “MS BUD.”, then it only
follows that John’s Caddy will have the vanity plate “MR FUDD”.
ManchuCandidate:
After reading this post, spencer, I guess not.
ManchuCandidate: No, it refers to her standard reply back in the junkie days when someone would ask her why she was so twitchy.
“It’s because I have MS, BUD!”
I blame teh economiks, which is basically sound, fundamentally speaking.
He bought her car? That’s priceless. John doesn’t have any money. Cindy might have given him the checkbook, but Meghan probably has more money than he does, with her trust fund and all.
NoWireHangers: Didn’t McCain tell that bunch of losey whiners that their jobs aren’t coming back? Do they think that every thing he says is a lie?
Ah, Jim. I see someone besides SKS decided to drag their carcass out of bed this afternoon. Happy Black Monday part II: Electric Boogaloo!
God damn I love this site!
ManchuCandidate: I didn’t say it was clever. I just said it was hers. And the AZ DMV let her have it! Some bureaucrat has a sense of humor.
Slap a GM badge on that furrin car and it’s all good! How many ‘murka lovers are driving around in Chevy Aveos (Daewoo) or Pontiac Vibes (Toyota) and yelling about how you have to buy American?
They still make cars in Detroit?
don’t get me wrong. i’d hit it with meghan but i’ve seen photos with her with far too many I-talian and Frenchy handbags.
Why won’t Meghan buy American-designed Coach, because it is made in Mexico? That’s NAFTA working for you.
friendlynerd: Actually, the way things are going, sooner or later, the Japanese will own GM so will the unions complain then.
Actually the Japanese are too smart to buy GM. I’m guessing a “trophy buy” from Kazakhstan’s soverign wealth fund.
Borat: Even her Tiffany flatware was manufactured in Italy.
Actually, if you read the linked piece first McCain said he bought it and then he said Megan bought it.
Vanity Smurf: …yes it does have a relationship to refineries shutting down, however the price per barrel has been dropping for the past 4 months(before hurricane season). Lets not also forget that hurricanes also shuts down the pumping of oil as well not just the refining. The reduction in cost is primarily from speculators now short selling in the commodities market. Oil companies are allowed to speculate on their own product which directly manipulates the price of oil. The price of oil no longer follows any rules of supply and demand.
spencer: Good analysis, except that it seems to still be working.
spencer: Anyone else wonder if Cindy is donating the brews for Bris and Levi’s big day? I mean, they are almost family, right?
The Hummer’s been converted to run on buffalo chips.
This news makes me want to flash the hash in Prime Minister Tojo’s lap, just like Bush the Elder did, god bless him! This one’s for the Railway of Death! Hrrrrallllllph!
Whora! Whora! Whora!
I am surprised Tubby can fit in bucket seats…I thought she needed to drive cars that had bench seats….
Hunter Gathers: As a fatter fatty, I would like to say stfu with the Meghan McCain fat jokes and insults. Wonketteers can do so much better.
The more I hear about Meghan, the more I like her. Sure she’s a useless waste of carbon, but she’s a harmless and somewhat entertaining waste of carbon.
Vanity Smurf: I dunno, the Prius got a big awesomeness boost after Al Gore’s son was caught going 100 MPH in his Prius, and then arrested for drugs. I’m not sure one little Republican daughter can counter that.
Hey Detroit,
Eat a bag of dicks.
Last time I checked you ruined Saab, Volvo and Mercedes by buying controlling interests in each. Why don’t you just buy a controlling interest in Toyota, so you can ruin them, too. Oh, that’s right, you don’t have any fucking money. HA HA
Viva la Cynthia: Yes, but going 100 mph in a Prius can only be done when the car isn’t carrying 2 tons of WALNUTS!’s offspring. It’s a speed-to-power-to-weight ratio thing.
AngryBlakGuy: erudite blak guys make me cream my pants…….
Here’s Meghan’s Prius

itgetter: As a fellow chubbo, I am only making the comments in the hope that she sees them personally and ends up crying herself to sleep in a closet in on of her many bedrooms. I hate her with the fire of 10,000 suns. Anyone who hangs with those fuckfaces from the Hills deserves fat jokes directed to her. I know the irony is that she is actually only a little overweight, nothing a couple of weeks in a spin class couldn’t solve, but instead I like to portray her as somewhere in the neighborhood of 400 lbs. This is about the woman, not her weight.
mookworthjwilson: Well stated and understood, sir/madame.
Let’s see.. from my youth in Michigan I believe the appropriate bumper stickers are:
“Cold? Hungry? Eat your import!”
-or-
“Maybe you can go on Japanese Welfare!”
mookworthjwilson: I only wish she’d enable comments on her web page.
AzDownboy:
I remember from my Toledo youth “remember Pearl Harbor - Buy American!”
What was funny and ironic about it was that it was on a late 80s Dodge Caravan with a 3.0 V6 engine. Made by Mitsubishi.
Cindy McCain owns a race-modified Nissan 240SX and has been to Japan several times to learn how to drift it. It’s true:

StoneAge: I couldn’t imagine trying to figure out how Meghan’s mass would effect the physics of the car if she ever tried that….
ESPN: “Cindy McCain doesn’t remember all the details”
Yep, drugs and race car driving are a fun combination!
Well, I think the Prius is fugly so I guess I am in agreement with McCain on one issue.
