Don't blame Meghan...
... remember, stoopid is genetic. Sure, Meghan McCain may be as self-involved as a black hole and and as clueless as Eric Holder investigating the New Black Panthers, but remember who her father is:
...the man who finished last in his class at Annapolis. Now, see, here's the thing — when the son of a distinguished naval family, heir to the traditions of a long line of serving naval officers, finishes dead last in his class, there's a pretty good chance that what he did was actually flunk out, only to be saved by a chorus of McCain family Academy rings knocking on the Commandant's desk like a hula dancer's rhythm section.
All Meghan McCain is doing is acting out her DNA destiny. What parent or party could ask any more? Look for her to be endorsed by the RNC in some future campaign...
Chinese Navy Steaming for Oakland!
A task force of the People's Liberation Navy has left harbor in China, heading for the US port of Oakland California following the blockading of a Chinese freighter by anti-Israeli activists and American leftists who apparently can't tell the difference between Hebrew and Chinese...
Under the guise of'anti-piracy operations, the Chinese fleet nears the California coast...
Spokesmen for the Chinese government declared the action was in defense of "legitimate national interests" and undertaking to defend the lives and property of millions of Chinese immigrants, documented and not, who have settled in what the PRC calls "Occupied America".
WH Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said that the President wanted to oppose the occupation of Oakland but was unable to do so, "because it would offer the GOP no reason to accommodate the Administration on comprehensive immigration reform."
Senator John McCain (Weathervane-AZ) said he would probably have an opinion on the invasion in a coupleof days when he saw how it was polling...

John McCain - “Doctors Make Too Much Money” (1984)/John McCain - 'Medicare Cuts...irresponsible...a price Americans should not be asked to pay." (2009)
HT: Take Back Medicine:
"My activism, such as it is, begins with those very words, on the very day they are uttered
The year: 1984. The Reagan Administration is at the helm. I learn that the newly instituted Prospective Payment System(“DRG’s”), which pays hospitals a flat fee based on theadmitting diagnosis of a Medicare patient, irrespective of length of stay or intensity of service, is creating significant problems with respect to proper medical care. A physician tells me he fears a patient died due to these novel cost control measures. I learn of a woman who cannot walk across her hospital room because she has not been provided with the oxygen she requires.
The Maricopa County Medical Journal, Roundup, mentions John McCain, saying he is a “friend” of Medicine.
In my untutored, apolitical, naïve state, I decide to alert this man to a problem I fear he does not - could not - know exists. (After all, I still believe the Government is here to help us.) Learning that McCain will speak at an open public forum at the Scottsdale Center for the Arts, I make my first foray into the public arena. Sitting on the balcony, one of my Medicare patients at my side, I express my concerns about the deteriorating care caused by this novel rationed payment system (for hospitals - NOT doctors) known as DRG’s.
John McCain, 2009 -- “Today I introduced my amendment to address the Democrat’s drastic and dramatic cuts to the Medicare program under their so-called ‘health care reform’ legislation,” said Senator John McCain. “My amendment would send this legislation back to the Finance Committee with instructions to report the bill to the Senate without these irresponsible cuts...Simply put, these Medicare cuts will impacts senior’s access to quality care. This is a price that American’s should not be asked to pay.”
Just say anything, Johnny... we'll never notice the difference.

''Out of Control Medical costs are “all doctors’ fault.” ‘Medical care is chewing up a larger and larger percentage of the national budget, hampering our competitiveness as a nation.’ He says ‘we need to solve the problem.’
I rebut, telling him I agree that we have to help control costs, which is why, from my first day in practice, I have told patients who inform me of a financial problem, to “pay what they can afford” of my fee.
The red-faced McCain shrinks one foot on stage. People ask me for my card when the meeting ends. Shocked and surprised by McCain’s unexpected vitriol, I plan a speech to the hospital staff, imploring them not to join the Health Plans that are just beginning to inundate Arizona. My ‘mission’ begins." -- Joseph Scherzer, M.D.

Are we still bigoted assholes, you old fool?
2008: "...The first [quote] is where McCain said that those who oppose amnesty for illegal aliens are "going to destroy the fucking party”.
"The second [quote] is in a call with Senator Lindsey Graham where McCain said in frustration at the rebuke he was getting, "Listen to these people ... Why would I want to be the leader of a party of such assholes?". Graham too called those opposed to amnesty bigots."
Old Man Grumpy Because Someone Won't Hold His Hand Anymore...
"Banish Sweet John McCain, and banish all the world...."
"I do not know you, old man."
John McCain, lifelong GOP backstabber for the Democratic party, calls for repeal of Obamacare...
So where was all this fire in 2008, you old fool?
They HAVE their majority, Johnny. The cameras aren't coming back. They don't NEED you anymore.
Neither, I think, do we.
