Meghan McCain, always outspoken, says she’s got one big regret — calling Rep. Michele Bachmann a “poor man’s Sarah Palin.”
“That’s the one if I could take it back I would, because I just think it’s so linear and so nasty,” McCain said in an interview with POLITICO. “And I’m not a big fan of attacking another woman anymore.”
But McCain said she doesn’t regret the comments she’s made about Sarah Palin herself. McCain’s lamented the fact that she’s still connected to her father’s former running mate and recently referred to her as a kind of “crazy aunt.” In her book “Dirty Sexy Politics,” McCain slammed Palin for bringing so much drama and stress to the campaign, noting she may have been one of the reasons her father lost.
“You know Sarah Palin, some of the stuff I said, again I would maybe term differently,” McCain told POLITICO. “But I think the criticism I have said of her is fair. I’m surprised how much attention it still gets, just because people still talk about her all the time and I understand the curiosity, but at a certain point I wish it wouldn’t make as much news as it does, but I guess people will always love to hear about it.”
Yeah I have NO idea why McCain would regret insulting Bachmann (I guess they're friends now or something.), but I totally agree that the best use of Sarah Palin's name these days is to be used to as a measuring tool to determine the ignorance or incompetence of other people in the world.
And yes people will never tire of hearing people say negative things about Sarah Palin.
Why do you think IM is as popular as it is?
It's because of that gym-rat photo you posted once, Gryphen!
ReplyDeleteNo, but seriously. You are totally on point. People love IM because IM has the balls to say what the media knows but flat out refuses to say. (And I'm talking about much more than "just" Sarah Palin having faked a pregnancy in 2008)
Gryph has two balls and they're both brass. He sticks his neck out there every fucking day and never (rarely) complains. He's the only Alaskan journalist who sincerely talks the talk and walks the walk. Hats off to you Mr. Gryphen (probably not his real name) for all you do and be careful out there, its a jungle. grasshopper
DeleteRonald Reagan's 11th commandment was that Republicans should not say bad things about other Republicans. The ones who don't follow that rule are the Tea Party, who are angry at all of the RINO's, Republicans in name only. That includes anyone they don't like, the Bushes, Karl Rove, and Christie, for example.
ReplyDeleteBut John McCain is Old School, and he belongs to the world of not insulting other Republicans, despite what he might say in private. Meghan is only "famous" because of her father. She has seen what goes on behind the scenes, but she has to mind her manners, too. She had a ring-side seat watching Palin in 2008. She must know more, much more, but it's like the Omerta of the Mafia, she can't talk.
Love the photo you picked of Meghan McCain. She's got such lovely skin! And I say that as the utmost complement, afterall, it's not her fault "Daddy" picked "the Loser" for a running mate, and I mean that in the most linear way.
ReplyDeleteShe's still young and needs to learn to steer away from facts she's stated in the past and everyone knows exactly what she meant when she said it.
Wasn't she supposed to get her own dirty sexy reality show on Tee Vee? Wonder why it got scrapped?

ReplyDeleteMore audio clips TPM has posted including 911 call from neighbor:

Oh, lol. The Palins: disturbing the peace not only everywhere they go, but next door to everywhere they go as well. Can't imagine they (collectively) have a true friend in the entire state, and that family is all they have – disfunction, brawls, fights, anger, and all the rest.
DeleteTotal 8 audio clips of the crazy Brawl and in every clip one can hear Palin screeching in the background. LOL
ReplyDeleteMan! Trackmarks sounds really fucking creepy on the second soundcloud here http://go.shr.lc/1uCjaYZ
ReplyDeleteWhat a creepy ass family.
Willblow -a well practiced liar and vile mouth.
Bristolbitch a whiny little sniveling bitch.
And poor TRIP crying in the background.
Sarah trying to talk her way out of it. Trackmarks is creepy!
Palin on Hannity attacking Tina Brown.
ReplyDeleteResplendent in a yellow pleather jacket even.
While Twitter blows up over her white trash family!!!
DeleteBristol bitch is a whiner.
"My thong came out" "I have no clue" Whaaaaaaaa....
G she has to know this is blowing up on twitter?
And she wears the Vegan pleather?
I for one think IM is popular because of Gryphen's integrity, talent and variety of postings!
ReplyDeleteMaybe Tripp can use that picture of his barefoot mommie urinating in the street at his first beer party, for show and tell day Friday. That poor kid.
ReplyDeleteTripp is going to grow up a thug and bully like the rest. Look at his role models. Wait until he hits middle school.if not before. So much for your "I have a son" shit, Bristol, just you wait. No one to blame but you and your thug family.
DeleteKeep talking, Meaghan, speak your truth.
It gets easier!
ADN site has taken the trouble to post full written transcript of the crazy audio tapes.
ReplyDeleteOne of the recordings on TPM (audio #3) has someone talking to the police saying
ReplyDelete"I think Janice Schell has it on video"
police: "where is Janice Schnell?"
"Ithink she went home in a cab. I can call her. Let me call my wife real quick..."
$arah cooked her own goose by being the ID-0-T she is to this day. Yes, she had to be politically correct, people will criticize her every move or statement, and you think she would diss her dad who gave her the perks she has today? She readily admitted it. The best part was when Howard asked her if she thought $arah was presidential material and she laughed. Big time.
ReplyDeleteYou ARE integrity, Gryph. This must be such a stellar day for you. It sure is for me, being an anonymous nothing. Giants up 1-0 to boot!
Yon Dung has got to go! Now you can't even trust him around your teenagers with their teachers present.

And yes people will never tire of hearing people say negative things about Sarah Palin.
ReplyDeleteI'm waiting for the day Sarah Palin croaks so I can go piss on her grave for the way she has treated people.
O/T, but the Palin limo revealed! I especially love that it comes equipped with 8 (count 'em, 8) bar areas. Bet they saw a lot of use on the night of the now legendary brawl.

ReplyDeleteSPEAKING PALIN:
# You Sarah Palin
Translation; You stupid Son Of A Butcher
# Code Bristol Palin
Translation: Hurry up and pull up your panties, your parents are home.
I can't open links that some commenters have on their comments..Anyone have a suggestion.
ReplyDeleteCopy and paste the url into your url bar and click the go arrow. Url's are not clickable links unless the commenter has included the html code to "linkify" them.
DeleteAnd yet your dad chose her as his running mate, but you don't level a word of criticism at him over HIS major part in the Palin debacle, do you, Miss Thing? Your touching new friendship with old crazy eyes tells the world everything it needs to know about you.
