- WHO IS THIS DEPENDENT CHILD? Now what is this we see in the Senate financial disclosures: “Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and his wife, Cindy, owe more than $15,000 on a joint credit card that is charging 25 percent interest; Cindy McCain owes between $15,000 and $50,000 on another charge card; and a dependent child has racked up between $15,000 and $50,000 on an American Express Card as well.” [Politico]
such mavericks!
Certainly not megs, cuz she’s got a job!
And I’d hit that, regardless.
Meg McCabe vowed to earn her way on her own, without her famous war-hero father’s help, using only spunk, raw talent, and an unlimited Amex card.
Doesn’t a dependent have to be under 18?
How does anybody with that much money get whooped with a 25% interest rate?
WALNUTS! is claiming MEGHAN on his TAXES as a “dependent”?!?!?!?!?
That bitch child is like 25 years old!!!
Suck it you little brat. GET A REAL JOB! FEEL MY PAIN!!!!!!!!!!
Oh yes, and of course Politico leads with Ted Kennedy and buries Meghan’s credit card spree at the bottom. I THOUGHT WE WERE A WAR BLOG NEWELL.
Could it be… McCain’s BLACK BABY???
NoWireHangers: But she’s intellectually 15, so he might have a case.
queeraselvis v 2.0: They keep her in a crate in the garage, silly.
Clearly he or she is a patriot! Like all good prominent conservatives, this podling is deep in debt, because that stimulates the economy as long as a Republican holds the White House, and they are in debt to a company clearly labeled “American”. It’s right there in the name!
Also, how many illegitimate children could John McCain’s scattered safe houses (mansions) hide, anyway? I say a dozen.
Looks like Sarah went to Nordstrom’s again!
Well fuck, looks like they may have to sell one of their houses, (like WALNUTS!), I can’t remember how many there have….
queeraselvis v 2.0: Or maybe you’re right and I should step away from the Caps Lock. It never leads anywhere good. But still, Meghan McCain sucks. Let’s not confuse that fact.
Why won’t the Obama administration act to curb these predatory credit card companies from preying on the elderly? They can’t be expected to understand complex financial things like credit card interest and find themselves a better deal. The Government Must Act!
Manos: Hands of Fate: No, I thought parents could claim you at any age as long as you were sucking at their teat. Bridget is 18 anyway.
queeraselvis v 2.0: ILLEGITIMATE Black Baby
What kind of glass pumpkin is worth $675, Senator Feinstein? Sounds like some fancy west coast un american Hollywood thing to me. You can get a real pumpkin for $5
So glad this noodlehead didn’t get elected. He can’t pay off a credit card that’s charging him 25% interest with his wife’s gazillion dollars. Between $15 & 50K is quite a spread–more of Politico’s crack ‘win the day’ journalism!
What I took away from that article is that Senator Feinstein’s friends give shitty gifts.
Spoon fed? Check. Diapers? Check. Prone to gibberish-filled temper tantrums? Check. The dependent child is obviously WALNUTS!
NoWireHangers: No confusion here. Besides, we all know that Meghan gets most of her money from giving headjobs to Matt Yglesias.
Twenty-five fucking percent? Wow. I know WALNUTS confessed to not knowing that much about economics, but that’s just embarassing.
Oh, and it’s good to see the Megs is exactly as responsible as we all figured her for.
It’s not Meghan. John McCain is the one who really knocked up Bristol Palin (not, as reported previously, David Letterman).
x111e7thst: That’s only because Maxine Waters disputed the paternity test results.
Prolly his youngest son splurging on liquor and body armor after graduating from the Naval Academy. Can’t say as I blame him.
Can we have an itemized list of expenses? I would like to know what percentage of Meg’s charges are for male escorts and dildos. I’m guessing it’s big.
Why wouldn’t you just pay the bills rather than carry the huge interest rate payments, unnecessarily? Beer Heiresses elude me.
my guess is that they’re so loaded, they barely noticed the bills or interest rate jump.
NoWireHangers: did somebody say WAR???!?!
Does McCain qualify for another credit card, or is he too risky? If he does, he should think about a balance transfer on the 25% rate. I guess when McCain voted against capping rates at 15% he was thinking, “Losers like me and Cindy should subsidize savvy consumers.”
Or maybe street dealers now accept amex?
That dependent child is not widely known because it goes to school year-round. Or else it lives in the garage, ready to pull the family car. Mush, baby, mush!
25% interest? I’ve got a bridge (and another war) they might buy.
a dependent child has racked up between $15,000 and $50,000 on an American Express Card as well
Her life, in a fucking twitter nutshell.
Expect to see an angry Twat from Meg sometime today.
His son just graduated from the Naval Acadaemy and his youngest daughter just turned 18 and is still in school. They are probably supporting both.
Gopherit: You have some type of bat signal don’t you?
It’s for Bridget. For that book she’s not writing.
NoWireHangers: He is pretty skilled. I think I shall pay Politico a “visit.”
facehead: Yeah, and do the banks know that this is a Senator they’re screwing? I heard that Joe Biden used to have a card with 0.08% APR.
NoWireHangers: I was hoping shorts would want to go…..but he’s dead silent so far
Yeah, it might very well be Bridget, who Meg is currently ragging on twitter for not having a crush on Eminem or Travis Barker.

What kind of diot is worth more than $100 million and doesn’t pay off their credit card every month? Does Cindy take lessons from Paris Hilton in stupidity, or is she just a typical GOP Stepford wife? “Oh, silly me, I can never remember to pay those bills.”
Gopherit: shortscubed is dead??!?!1?! Who will write funny blogs now!!!?…
Walnuts paying the 25% rate makes me happy.
Naked Bunny with a Whip: Not dead, but he might as well be. He’s probably……working.
Gopherit: *screams and screams and screams*
ManchuCandidate: Especially since she’s at Sturgis this weekend. I wonder if she’ll twat about the biker train…
Who knew that you could run up that much hookers and blow on an AmEx card?
I would gladly loan all the Walnuts at 25% interest. I promise to be brutal with late payment charges and other ‘extras’
Next Megan twitter rant: “My mother would not be cutting up my brother’s Amex card, but obvsly because I’m female, she takes it out on me. Sad, sad, sad and so unfair!”
What child is this, who, Amex maxed
On WALNUTS’! largess, is mooching?
Whom Politico greet with schadenfreude sweet,
While Shep Smith’s watch are keeping?
