Meghan McCain to Laura Ingraham: "Kiss my fat ass!"

[Cash_thatswhatiwant]

Meghan McCain sat down with the ladies of "The View" Monday, railing against Laura Ingraham's insult about her being "plus size," commenting on her parents' visit to the show last year and speaking about her father's feeling of vindication at Obama calling some fundamentals of the economy strong.

McCain, who said she'd never even heard of Ingraham before the "plus sized" comment, called it "terrible" and added, "When Tyra Banks went on her show in a bathing suit and said 'kiss my fat ass,' that's what I feel like. Kiss my fat ass!"

Asked by Sherri if her parents had been treated fairly when they were on the show last September, she hedged and said, "Obviously when you see the difference between my parents being on and President Obama and Michelle, I think it's obvious." But, she added, "I think we should move forward."

Elisabeth then asked if Senator McCain felt vindicated at having called the fundamentals of the economy strong during his campaign, only for President Obama to use similar language recently. "Yeah, I think so," Meghan responded. "It's ironic it's the exact language and the exact terms he used earlier. I am sure he does feel vindicated."

However, Obama did not use exactly the same language as his former rival. "If we are keeping focused on all the fundamentally sound aspects of our economy, all the outstanding companies, workers, all the innovation and dynamism in this economy, then we're going to get through this," Obama said last week. McCain simply stated that the "fundamentals of our economy are strong."

1. I hope the McCain camp and the rest of the bozos tear themselves to pieces

as a Democrat, I will sit and watch.

2. I love this.........

The young woman who represents EXACTLY who the GOPigs need to recruit in order to survive, and who doesn't know a whole lot, but who is willing to learn - she's very young - gets her ankles gnawed on by the older harpies who cannot understand that they are already irrelevant and insignificant.

Color them green, not for St. Patrick's Day, but with jealousy.

And, Meghan, you can come and play in Tangerine's 'way left sandbox any old time. You might find that your beliefs are much more in line with ours than you expect.

We're nice. GOPigs like Ingraham and Malkin and Limbaugh and Buchanan and all those old farts - they're not nice.

Come to the light, Meghan........

4. Meghan, you seem somewhat rational. your fat ass is welcome here.

Come and join us. We won't bite. Ask Ron Reagan!

5. These wingnuts are going to turn that woman into a Democrat, if

they're not careful.

Seems to be their plan - push out all the moderate Republicans, and totally own the rabid right.

6. I'm starting to like that girl more and more... n/m

8. She's a political strategy of the GOOP. Remain detached.

7. I wish that I had never heard of Ingraham before

That said, John McCain can kiss my ass too, because he made a rude joke about Chelsea Clinton when she was only a teenager. Maybe he can read Meghan's Daily Beast article and reflect on that.


Also, I remember Obama going on The View and getting grilled by Elisabeth for a ridiculous amount of time of Rev Wright, so whatever to that comment. Though it's normal that she would want to defend her father, and probably saw the media treatment through a daughter's prism.

17. Why is Chelsea Clinton so ugly?" "Because Janet Reno is her father". that was the joke

so now maybe he knows how the Clinton family felt.

Coulter and Ingraham are both idiots.

9. I don't think McCain's particularly chubby...

but I hope she's overly sensitive and develops a complex.

10. Big Fucking Deal...

Who gives a shit about Megan McCain or Laura Ingraham? Lets see her daddy stand up to Rush...

11. I couldn't believe that Elisabeth was gloating over the 'fundamentals' deal!

In the first place, when McCain uttered those infamous words of denial, we were just begin to tank on a massive level. I knew years ago that things had been going south, even while Bu$hco touted how peachy keen everything was. Obama was slammed two weeks ago for being too "negative" and when he mentioned that it was a great time to invest (if one has the luxury of years to see a profit), the markets perked up and so he probably feels that being positive (in addition to actually trying to solve this mess) is the way to go. Soooo not the McCain strategy, which was basically to phone everything in.

I saw the show this morning. I don't know all the details of this brouhaha, but I think Meghan shouldn't have even defended anything about her weight. Plus, hello! She's not fat! Jesus, anyone who's not anorexic these days is called fat! How sick is that?

Greatest dis on Laura I.? Meghan said she had never heard of her. Mwah! Total pwnage!

[OneGrassRoot]

13. Welcome! Great screen name :)

erin go bralass....love it! :)

You're right, she slapped Ingraham good with the "I've never heard of her."

:rofl:

14. Hi there! Isn't that the greatest diss? N/T

[Dr. Strange]

16. Who is Erin?

[KillCapitalism]

15. Meghan McCain = hottie

Laura Ingraham = hag

[Jennicut]

18. Meghan is NOT fat. Not anywhere near it and Laura Ingrahm is a real snooty

jerk. I don't agree with Meghan on everything, I think she is over protective of her father. But she is a moderate young Republican and she should be the face for getting young repubs involved. Instead the right wing pundits call her "fat". She needs to just become a Dem and give up on Daddy's party.
