Meghan McCain stopped by American University yesterday to chat with the young college people of today. She is so hip to their jive—she even likes Gays, the most fabulous new store at the Phoenix Mall! She spoke with a reporter at the campus paper The Eagle, who surprised old Meg by asking her, immediately, why she is even a Republican. “I consider myself a Republican because of all the issues and conventional ideology and I just believe, you know, that my gay friends should be able to get married just like I can. I think the Republican Party has a long way to go when it comes to social issues, but when you go back to the ideals it was based on, social issues have nothing to do with it.” Right-o! Down the rabbit hole we go.
Everything Meg does, she does for the gays. You wouldn’t expect them to understand this, or even to like Meg, because she herself is not gay, merely a heterosexual Straight. But these gays, bi and large, they are a very open people.
“Well, you know, the gay community has been very accepting of me and embracing. And I have gay followers, which has been really amazing to be embraced as a straight woman and Republican. I just want to show that not all Republicans are against gay marriage. I say ‘gay marriage,’ I agree with marriage and not civil unions; I think they should be allowed to get married.”
They OWE U 1 M.M.

I’m sorry, but I can’t stop laughing at how stressed that left sleeve of hers looks.
Damn this should be NSFW, mostly because watching when I watch this is, I am naked.
Maybe it’s my olds brain, but I’m confused. I thought the GOP was against gay marriage because it interfered with their ‘down low’ trysting and glory holes. I should eat some more Metamucil and make a call with my Jitterbug phone.
Where is this GOP that you’re talking ’bout Megs and does it exist in the real world?
Is she gaining in bulk? She has reached that state I call the “ball park frank” look (they plump when you cook’em), like a hot dog about to burst its skin.
I was always told that black is supposed to make you look think…
I’d still H_t it..
A lot of fag hags are overweight so the acceptance of Meghan by gays is a given. Her voice is pretty annoying in a Valley girl sort of way.
She could be gay if she’s drop a few pounds.
The earrings are fab, but somebody totally misled Meghan on how much makeup you need to apply to appear on camera.
Unless she actually has a bad sunburn, in which case I apologize.
HA! Megs just said “I have a lot of respect for Republicans….. Senator Lieberman”
Ooops! Lieberman is supposed to be an Independent…. Freudian slip Megs
Plus WOWSERS!! Megs totally hit up the dollar store for big gaudy clashing jewelry……
How about the ripped denim fabric….. she’s a freaking kid of ooober wealthy beer baroness with more estates than they can count…
I bet her Stepford Wife Mom, Cindy Lou is cringing.
those cock rings dangling from her lobes are impressive. must have something to do with fucking elephants.
I feel dirty saying this, but the more of her I see and hear, the less I hate her.
Dare I say it, I’m nearly a Meghan McCain fan. Does this mean I am ill?
[re=418415]Scruffy_The_Janitor[/re]: thin…thin…thin
I just can’t pay attention to what she is saying, her boobs are hypnotic.
[re=418426]Godless Liberal[/re]: no but it might mean you are gay. Or a chubby chaser. Either or. Well, you might have swine flu too, this is true. So maybe.
She has gay followers? Where, exactly, is she going to lead them? To an orgy of binge-eating in her bedroom?
[re=418426]Godless Liberal[/re]: There used to be a lot more Republicans like her. Maybe she’ll reverse the trend of fanged GOP shouters and allow some ‘moderates’ back into the party.
Meggum, learn to use a seam-ripper and lose the shoulder pads. I know they’re part of your breezy grownup jackety look but very few girls over 100 pounds need shoulder augmentation, and they’re distracting me from your fundamental incomprehensibility.
i’d fist it. in an open and embracing sort of way. also.
what on earth happened to her right leg? It looks like a midget leg. If nothing else, that is some seriously unflattering foreshortening.
Hair extensions, much!?!?
I’m sorry I just can’t listen to her now that I know THE TRUTH.
“I think the Republican Party has a long way to go when it comes to social issues, but when you go back to the ideals it was based on, social issues have nothing to do with it.”
Oh, sure. Slavery? Totally an economic issue.
She is too young to remember the Republicans without the family values nonsense. So she is either a student of history, harkening back to the philosophical roots of the Goldwater small-government ideals, or else she is lazy, and a Republican because daddy is. Guess which.
[re=418430]Crank Tango[/re]: I guess I’m a chubby chaser because I would definitely contribute to her campaign fund, and it would not be soft money.
[re=418415]Scruffy_The_Janitor[/re]: Steve Jobs is getting thinner and thinner and Meghan McCain is getting thicker and thicker. Let that be a lesson.
Meg McCabe should take her Log Cabin pals and secede from the Republic Party. Found a new party devoted to fabulousness and the ideals the old party was based on.
Say what?
Oh, well, just fabulousness will do in a pinch.
[re=418426]Godless Liberal[/re]: well, she doesn’t seem horrible like most rethugs, and she seems more or less honest, so that’s different too.
Let’s see, Meghan McCain doesn’t agree with Republicans on social issues, which means she must be down with them regarding fiscal issues. Yet she doesn’t have to work a day in her life and she’ll still be stinkin’ rich.
As a guy, I wouldn’t trust Meghan as far as I could throw her. She seems like she has the ability to justify anything.
From your mouth to God’s ear, Meghan.
how many extensions has she got in that ‘do, anyway
*************LIVE MEGHAN ALONE*******SHE’S GAY OK???!!!
Is that a George Carlin photo in the background?
Is it weeping?
[re=418433]deutsch[/re]: Not to mention the product placement.
A very skeptical Rip Torn poster is not buying your Republican Party 2.0 bullshit, Meghan.[re=418433]deutsch[/re]: I think she just left them on after trying out for the Indoor Football League.
Cue Steve King calling Megs a trollopy cunt in 3…2…
[re=418414]Prommie[/re]: Girlfriend is bustin’ out!
Enough of this fag-haggery Megs, open your own BBW porn site.
Dear Meghan,
FYI, we actually aren’t too fond of the gays.
Yours,
Everyone else in the Republican Party.
Is Jim awake yet?
I like how 16 secs into it, the person being completely body-blocked behind Megs uses the opportunity to steal a laptop.
Looka dat frickin cleavage peepin out over the top!! Motorboat Meg!!!!
Why. Would. Anyone. Follow. MEGS?!?!?!?!111
[re=418426]Godless Liberal[/re]: No, it means you’re gay, silly!
[re=418439]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Constitutional issue, what with the interstate commerce clause and all.
[re=418426]Godless Liberal[/re]: I don’t know, but every time I hear Megs speak I think “bless her heart, she means well.”
And Meghan, honey, you might love Aaron Schock, but I have a feeling he’ll never like you as more than a friend. Which dovetails nicely with your “gays are people too” message, actually.
So why did Eliot take the 10:10 from Sidcupp? Because it was the only train leaving the station. And why is this young Ms McGoo a Repugnant? Because it was the only rail she could ride to notoriety with neither talent nor competence in any field. You think she could make it as a blogger writing as Anonymous?
[re=418432]chascates[/re]: Yes, this is a truth. Like back when her father interned under Abe Lincoln.
Did Bob Dole or Jack Kemp’s kids continue to plague us even after their loser Dads lost?
Oh, Meg. You make me so sad. You just… you just don’t have ANY idea what the Republican Party is really all about, do you? I mean, really, give me just one part of the platform that you understand and support.
And seriously, what is UP with the makeup? All that money and nobody to tell her she looks awful? I guess it’s in the same category as Donald Trump’s hair.
[re=418478]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Abolishing the inheritance tax?
[re=418478]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: Eliminating the estate tax, silly.
Why can’t people just say “I’m a Republican because I like money!!” JUST OWN IT!
On re-watching the scenes between Lucille and Lindsay Bluth in Arrested Development, was the joke about Lucille’s fat jokes that Lindsay weighed about 90 pounds soaking wet? Because if I imagine Jessica Walters’ lines instead bilefully delivered by Cindy McCain to her daughter, it would make more sense.
oh she is adorable. she will soon find her inner democrat/independent because the republicans will not stand for her support of teh gay. no never Meghan, they never will agree with you. but you go girl! defeat DOMA and DADT or bust!
SOMEBODY’s put on a few pounds. Is it the gayness?
A poem is in order:
I tell all you gayz, you blackz
You will have better dayz
‘Cos Megs got your back
And, yo, she’s hot in the sack
With an impressive rack
[re=418485]norbizness[/re]: This must be accepted as further evidence that Meg McCabe is gay, obvs.
Ha ha! Oh, these ‘ironic’ fat jokes are just hilarious, aren’t they? Keep up the good work, everyone. Great laughs today.
Sad. I just want to scrub all that crap off of her face and send all the fugly costume jewelry back to the swap meet in South Florida where it came from. Come on Meg, you are only 24! Why do you want to look like an Aged Republican Hag already?
“I’d bet my career…”
Career? Meh. Don’t trust Megs until she bets something really valuable to her; like, her entire Entenmann’s stash.

[re=418493]Maxine of Arc[/re]: Twinkie?
And look, I have no problem with overweight people, everyone in my family including myself is overweight, but wearing black and that specific black jacket for every recorded appearance is a bit sad. Haha, she rolls her un-rollable sleeves up because it’s so hot and she doesn’t want to take the jacket off to show the flab! Come on Meghan, Laura Ingraham’s not watching.
Also, I would have bet every single dollar I’ll ever earn that Meghan was one of those girls who freaks out and feels old at 25, as she says.
Fat is the new gay.
That’s why teh gayzors embrace Megz.
Meggie, don’t you think you’d get more attention if you became a Democrat? It would have the added appeal of being more intellectually consistent with your stated platform as well. Win-win!
Just a thought.
[re=418495]MarSF[/re]: Have you seen who she emulates? Her mom?
More accepting of moderate Republicans? She’s a witch! BURN HER!!1!

[re=418448]Barry Jive &[/re]: “As a guy, I wouldn’t trust Meghan as far as I could throw her.”
Which isn’t far, by the looks of her.
>I say ‘gay marriage,’ I agree with marriage and not civil unions; I think they should be allowed to get married.
MM, try that line at Liberty University or the Heritage Foundation and get back to us on whether you’re still a Republican.
[re=418495]MarSF[/re]: 25. NEVER FORGET!!!!11!!one!!
Did she just say, “I’ve been drinking a lot longer than you” about an 18-year-old? AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
[re=418504]american mutt[/re]: I don’t think she has quite the Miserable Anorexic thing down yet.
I feel sorry for her. He dad is a grumpy asshole who sold his soul during the last campaign. She is clearly trying to break free of her shitty political affiliations but she is still too stupid to see the writing on the wall. She needs an intervention.
I think Schmegs is assuming a lot when she said she’s able to get married. The election looks like it hit her hard, quite the little land monster.
Doh! Megs said “The last election was so inspiring!!!”
Really Megs? Jack booted thug riot police in the streets bashing heads & busting into protest march organizers homes having them hit the ground at gunpoint & their computers seized as evidence is inspiring?
Or was it the fact that neither the President or the VP had the balls to even attend the National Convention of their own party- either because they were such an election liability, or they were scared of the 10,000+ people in the streets protesting their torturous regime.
Any way you look at it, Megs, the word inspiring does not capture the election.
If Meghan McCain had a personality that was in any way bearable, I wouldn’t notice her fatness so much. But because she IS hideously annoying, I DO notice the fat..a lot of fat. Looks like she’s about three pounds away from not being able to cross her legs.
If she isn’t one of teh gays, why is her father “very accepting” of her?
And what’s with that VERY annoying little head bob at the end of every answer?
Next up: Glenn Beck throws Meg into a very large pot of boiling water.
[re=418426]Godless Liberal[/re]: Don’t worry, we’d all hit it, repeatedly, we just don’t mention it.
You gotta admit that First Daughter Meg McCabe is a spunky little piece of ass
I would hit it.
And she would be traumatised for FIVE AND A HALF YEARS.

“And I have gay followers, which has been really amazing to be embraced as a straight woman and Republican.”
I guess she has never been to a hair salon in Beverly Hills.

Yo’ muh, muh, mufin’ top!
[re=418520]Go Figure[/re]: “the word inspiring does not capture the election.”
it does if you stand over to the left a little and look at it from there.
Every night must be 10¢ wing night at the Homo Tavern.
shut up meghan
Hey, at least she owns up to the fact that she is where she is because of who her father is. But she should also own up to the fact that being a female in the GOP pretty much guarantees that you’ll be pushed to the front of the line.
Those kids don’t twitter. Only old losers like you twitter.
A 24-year old independently wealthy blogger should be in much better shape. Get it together. It’s not genetic, I’ve seen your parents.
[re=418528]TeddyS[/re]: I’m not sure I would bet on Beckers being able to pick Megs up. There’s a pretty big difference between lifting a plastic miniature frog and Megs.
Besides, her face isn’t nearly as slimy and plastic looking as her mom’s. Now THAT’S the McCain you should boil with the frogs. For five and a half years, naturally. I’m sure she’d enjoy it, too, as long as Beck wore a gorilla mask.
And I thought my daughter had a severe case of “I” strain.

[re=418441]Godless Liberal[/re]: Tis nothing to be too ashamed of. I’d totally hit it too. Although the fatter she gets, it seems she gets less and less cute, and more like every other fat girl who used to be pretty. I just don’t get why anyone gives a shit what she has to say. Let me know when she “pulls a specter/sphincter”.
I see she inherited Cindy’s makeup trowel.
Poor Meghan McCain can’t stand Charlie Sheen’s 20 questions for Obama in his open-letter.
[re=418552]Gopherit[/re]: E.g. Lindsey Graham.
I begin to suspect that Meghan is revving up to pull a MACKENZIE, switch parties in a flurry of sympathy from all the victims of Republican sexual interference (THEY ARE LEGION), then run as an Independent candidate for POTUS in 2012. YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST.
Again………..I’d fatty chase the Megs. Once I had her where I needed her I’d drop a Cleveland Steamer on her lady chest and do the steam roller part. As well. Also.
She went from hot to not in less than a year.
The interviewer on the other hand. WOW!
i know she was speaking english, but very little of that got through my crap detector. who was the hobbit in the background?
and the megs is not fat, my dear wonketties, she is rubenesque and dripping sex. see the way she is bursting out of her pants? and those earrings, i know i’ve already mentioned them, but jeez louise, i could stick my fist through one of those. what fantasy may lay beneath the surface of that fashion statement?
as for the rock on the left index, last time i saw one like that was in k-mart more years ago than the megs is old. megs, you ain’t old. i don’t know what or who you’re feeling, but you want the genuine feel-old experience, you’re going to need to wait a few decades. it’ll be waiting for you, don’t worry.
Jaysus, Meghan, lay off the rouge a bit. You’re entering clown territory.
[re=418520]Go Figure[/re]: Actually, “the fact that neither the President or the VP had the balls to even attend the National Convention of their own party- either because they were such an election liability, or they were scared of the 10,000+ people in the streets protesting their torturous regime” was sort of inspiring to me. It’s one of the few reasons that I retain even a shred of respect for my fellow Americans.
“bi and large” won the morning so hard, it left an impact crater. Well played, Juli.
Um, there’s no Phoenix Mall. Most likely, Meghan would find her new favorite ghey store at Paradise Valley Mall or Scottsdale Fashion Square.
“American University”? That doesn’t sound very christian.
Gay marriage is socialism according to a GOP sage.
Why is Meghan McC a socialist?
Doesn’t she know that her daddy was forced to eat tasty pho for many long years to vanquish socialism, and then marry a rich cougar-in-the-making for capitalism?
Meghan is revving up … for POTUS in 2012 — That’s what I thought, too. But although apparently the Constitution is hazy about letting Kenyans be President, the paperwork clearly has a clause saying no damn punk kids can be President so Meghan can’t run until something like 2019 if I’ve ENIACed the numbers good.
I’m waiting for her to say “I’m for the fabulous gays, but I’m not for healthcare for the sick gays who get denied healthcare for those pre-existing conditions of non-fabulosity (and the other disease that dead Republican yoda Reagan couldn’t bring himself to say).”
Sorry for being the Debbie Downer on Missie Meghan’s parade, but some of the gays are still dying of the disease that dare not mention its name.
Do the gheyz put their cokks through those giant hoop earrings?

I follow people on Twitter just to keep tabs on how unbelievably stupid they are, so my friends and I can laugh at them. She needs to know that this sort of thing is possible, even among teh gays.
And by the bye, if she wants to get really historical with the GOP, and how “social issues have nothing to do with it,” she might want to Google “Republican Party” + slavery for the lulz.
Seems everything if funny to you, Wonkett

[re=418607]Buzz Feedback[/re]: Those aren’t earrings. They’re the Symbolic Cock Rings of Marriage.
I’m a little sad for her because this is SO not going to go down when she encounters the buzz-saw of Republican party discipline. I guess they’ve been nice to her so far because she’s John McCain’s daughter or because nobody takes her seriously. Won’t last.
[re=418613]JooJoo Bee[/re]: Yeah, that’s why I follow her. What other stupid people should I be following? I could use some more larfs.
I wrote her in the early stages of her blog(ette) basically thanking her for what I thought she was doing: bringing back liberal republicanism. Hey, we need all the liberal whatevers we can get if we want to stop teaching that all porn is gay porn? But no, apparenly she’s with them on everything else except the gays, which means she still might think porn turns you gay, but she’s cool with that.

Like most people, she has inherited her politics from her parents. At least she also has the humanity to see that scapegoating the gays is wrong. It’s just unlikely that she’ll ever see scapegoating the poors as wrong.
“I just believe, you know, that my gay friends should be able to get married just like I can.”
Witness this masterfully subtle stand against gay marriage: everybody knows nobody would ever marry Meghan McCain.
Great Republican, or greatest Republican?
[re=418641]Sharkey[/re]:[re=418621]gurukalehuru[/re]: See, this is why I can’t respect her no matter how “honest” and “non-thuggish” she seems to be. She has no career to literally bet on, and even if she did, she has “literally” made no bets whatsoever (unless she really did bet someone $64,000 just because she has that kind of money lying around). And her whole thing about why she is a Republican doesn’t wash at all. She has “literally” made no arguments whatsoever for the policies of the Republican party. I am forced to conclude that she is a legacy Republican only, a shallow fame-whore with a really annoying voice.
[re=418683]groove[/re]: Hey wait! Jenna Bush found herself a gross Republican white boy to marry so I am sure there is hope for Meghan.
Oh, fat joke. The most difficult, elusive joke of all. Proof of the utterer’s cleverness. How I envy thee.
I inherited my politics from my family too, but thankfully we were northern republicans and that is a ideology that no longer exists so thank jeebus.
what is the conventional ideology? does she think that’s what they decide at the RNC every four years?
Also, I forgot to mention that Editor Juli’s sentence, “But these gays, bi and large, they are a very open people” is an epic win.
[re=418700]urrca[/re]: Adipose your right.
She’s pretty cute for a thick girl, but that voice does not do it for me. I know it’s because I’m an old, but I prefer the word to be pronounced “yeah,” with a diphthong, not “yah” like an Ubergruppenfuehrer.
If she really did have as many gay “followers” as she says she does, they would not let her out of the house with Kate Gosselin’s hair and those ill-fitting clothes. Perhaps that’s why Log Cabin Republicans are not considered real gays.

Ja Ubergruppenfuehrer Meghan ist in der Mühe für die Herstellung eines Lampenschirms von der menschlichen Haut. Ha, ha, ha.
HAHAHA… Not to pile on, but I initially thought the aspect ratio was off in the video. Doesn’t she realize that nobody is going to listen to her if she’s phat? I hate to be the one to say it, but I’d rather boink her ancient Mom at this point.

Yes, I bleed for her. In fact, I bleed marzipan and razberry crème fraiche for her.

“when you go back to the ideals it was based on, social issues have nothing to do with it”
Actually, the Republican Party was based almost entirely on social issues, especially opposition to slavery. (Then, as now, the Republican Party was all about helping black people.) According to Wikipedia, they also, “put forward a progressive vision of modernizing the United States–emphasizing higher education, banking, railroads, industry and cities, while promising free homesteads to farmers.” (Free land for farmers? Isn’t that socialist?)
Like today, the Republicans also loved immigrants and/or Catholics and were opposed to nativism and xenophobia. Abraham Lincoln wrote, “As a nation, we began by declaring that ‘all men are created equal.’ We now practically read it ‘all men are created equal, except negroes’ When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read ‘all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics.’ When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty — to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy.” (Russia? Lincoln was a Commie!)
[re=418434]c-freak[/re]: I was about to post the same thing, no lie. I believe we have problems.
[re=418439]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Just to point out the obvious in case the kids these days don’t believe it – and it is pretty mind-boggling considering the current state of the GOP – but the Republican Party was founded in opposition to slavery.
Avoiding the softball of mocking Meghan McCain, it’s still a good sign that someone from her background can see that equality for gays and instituting gay marriage is obviously the right way to go.

The fat jokes are overkill only because most straight men lamely commenting here would love nothing better than to be bouncing off some juicy ass right now. But what else can they ridicule about someone who never says ANYTHING of substance? Since she talks, blogs, and tweets, but never says anything, we are left making fun of those sausage casings masquerading as blazer sleeves.

[re=418879]El Pinche[/re]: Meghan’s thread and Beck’s thread are crushing all other threads but right now Meghan and Beck are neck and neck with each other and it is unclear who will be a head I mean ahead at the end of the day.
[re=418819]sezme[/re]: Yes, however the Republican party was also considered the liberal party at the time, while the Democrats were considered the conservatives of the day. The parties have basically flipped since. Think about it – the states’ rights over federal government (traditionally a conservative stance) people were the ones in favor of slavery, while the ones trying to abolish it were all for government regulation and control (a liberal stance). I often hear Republicans bring up this point as a redeeming factor for the party, forgetting that their party was actual very liberal at the time and has very little to do with the party today, and pretty much nothing to do with what the party CLAIMS to be today (since its claims and its actions are so wide apart, Megs McCain could stand in between them).
Though to be honest I think they’re in the beginning stages of flipping again. Not entirely, granted, but Republicans (traditionally the conservative, hands-off government party) want the government to control marriage, abortions, etc, not to mention monitoring phone conversations, google searches and library book selections. Meanwhile, the Democrats (the government program/regulation party) think religion, marriage, abortions, etc should be individual rights (or at least states rights) and think big government has compromised individual rights for the sake of security. Granted, their stances on health care and some issues are still more traditional, but which party honestly sounds conservative and which sounds liberal now?
So if we want to get technical about it, the way-back traditional republican party values, back to Civil War times, were about preserving human rights, but also about government regulation. She’s not as far off as she thinks, just for entirely different reasons – which I’d love to see someone explain to her, as the dimensions of her head exploding would be epic.
[re=418870]problemwithcaring[/re]: Speaking (if I may) on behalf of the men commenting, I think way more than half of us would rather be pulling up to Meg’s bumper than goofing around on the Interwebs at work.
She’s overly made-up, so I’m envisaging a neatly mowed airstrip and some anal bleaching….
So Meghan McCain and Meghan McCain’s hair are right up there with Barbara Streisand and Lady GaGa?
I’d still hit all of that, but only if Babs was like 30 yrs younger.
She like totally gets this democracy because, like, she’s the daughter of John McCain, and like heir to his political fortune, just like she’s heir to mommy’s money. Don’t you get it? Why do all of you hate America’s inherited democracy so much?
That chick is one hottie!
Meanwhile, the interviewer has totally nailed the “When I was in bandcamp” look. I bet she could suck the hubcaps off a Volvo at 30 paces.
I’m sorry Ms. McCain, Wonkett is not equipped to handle a woman of your … ahhhh… carriage.
( [re=418870]problemwithcaring[/re]: astute observation.)
I just wish she was the only blithering female idiot John McCain had unleashed on the world.
[re=418915]shadowMark[/re]: And no wagers? WTF ..there should be a separate thread on the Beck and Megs thread war. Then that thread will be neck and neck with both, and then OMG!
i am glad she has hope for famous republican Joe Lieberman. Bummer he caucuses with the Demcrats
I love chubby blondes. Unfortunately Megs wouldn’t make my hit list, because in addition to being chubby blonde I do appreciate a big brain. Are my standards too high?
[re=418917]Redhead[/re]: Just hold up an electoral map of 2000, 2004, or 2008 next to an electoral map of 1864. Then ask her, who is the party of Lincoln? Really?
Actually, Lieberman is not an independent — he is an “Independent Democrat”
who caucuses with the Democrats — part of the 60-vote cloture vote is the
Lieberman seat. Also, he’s registered in Connecticut as a Democrat.
So, he’s actually a Democrat. And little McCainy is even dumber than she
looks.
Poor Megs. So earnest, but so dumb.
At her best last year, on stage with Bristol, Willow, Piper & totally blowing them off, in that rich-girl, ignore-the poors way.
[re=418703]sezme[/re]: EPIC! “Extremely Prescient, Impressive Comment.”
[re=418700]urrca[/re]: You are absolutely correct that, generally speaking, fat jokes are low-hanging fruit (sometimes too low-hanging, but that’s another story).
I use the “Richard Pryor Rule.” If the person telling the joke is (1.) Self-deprecating; and (2.) Insults everybody (don’t just pick on any one group) then it’s probably ok. As long as it is genuinely funny (see Don Rickles, who had a 50-year career and was probably funny for the first five years of it; or Jay Leno). Actually, don’t see Don Rickles. That’s my point.
I do have limits. I draw the lines at jokes about people who recently passed away. Just me.
