In Defense of The Other McCain: Go ‘head Kinsey! Shake what yo mama gave ya!
It looks like Stacy over at The Other McCain has gotten himself in some trouble, again. He thinks the women aren’t going to defend his latest blunder, but I will. I think the common sense reality of what he says speaks for itself: people like to look at young attractive people and Stephen Kruiser over at PJTV was smart to hire 25-year-old HOTTIE Kinsey Schofield. Stacy is not arguing that her attractiveness is the ONLY reason she was hired, but there isn’t enough evidence of her supposedly superior writing capability to judge her writing talent. Her looks on the other hand are right out there for all to see and judge. It goes without saying that this played into the decision to hire her.
I don’t understand why everyone is getting all worked up about this. Based on her publicity picture the girl recognizes her own hotness and markets it well. What’s with the upset? It reminds me of that old joke, to get a pretty girl into bed you tell her she’s smart, a smart girl that she’s pretty. Perhaps Stacy’s comments is perceived as an insult because he said she’s pretty and people think he is saying she is not smart, but there are smart and pretty girls out there. Although rare, those qualities are not mutually exclusive.
In college, I remember at the beginning of the year Jason (AKA Big Sexy) and I would get a table outside of the cafeteria in the Student Union to attract new members to the College Republicans. I would dress in heels, some fitting jeans, and a nicely fitting shirt with my hair and make-up did. our professor thought that this was absurd and was yelling at me and Jason for it. She asked Jason, “Is that all of you think of Monique? She’s just another pretty face? What about her intelligence?” To which, Jason responded that the male freshman walking through that door weren’t going to stop by the table to check out my brain. But, once we got them to the table based on my looks we could hook them into going to a meeting and becoming a part of the club from there.
I know that Jason respects me for my intelligence. But, I also know boys and marketing. Boys want to hang out with hot chicks, even if that means attending a College Republicans meeting! And, girls want to associate with cool, hot girls because they either a) think they are a cool, hot chick themselves and will demand equal quality in their friends, or b) they have always wanted to be with one of the cool, hot chicks. And, to be fair, Jason isn’t so bad looking himself and I’m sure some of those young women were just as willing to attend a College Republican meeting to meet him as they were to hang out with me.
I don’t know how smart or talented Kinsey Schofield is. But, her publicity photo speaks for itself. The girls is HOT!!! Clearly, this played into her getting hired for the job. How is that insulting or degrading? I’m not saying it’s the only reason she got the job, but I’m sure it was a factor. I think Stacy is just acknowledging this obvious truth.

Don’t blame Washington, political parties, and politicians. Voters need to start blaming themselves!
Unfortunately, due to work travel, I was unable to get on a computer, yesterday. That might be a good thing because I was pretty worked up.
I live in DC and I am disgusted with the whole city, as are the couple of people I talked to at the bar yesterday morning at the airport. And, people wonder why airports are one of my favorite places? It’s the only place that makes it completely acceptable to be drinking no matter the time of day. An airport bar always has patrons and Patron!
All of the DC incumbents were re-elected. My boy Jim DeMartino, who I’ve met a couple of times, was defeated. And, of course he was. The few people in DC who actually go out and vote just click whatever box has a D in it. They probably don’t even know half of the people on there. They just vote for the party that they rely on for their welfare benefits. It’s disgusting and disappointing. As I tweeted to someone, yesterday, if ignorance is bliss DC is the most blissful city!
Speaking of “Tweeting,” I’m finally starting to catch up to this technology. I know, I’m a little slow and behind the times. My boy Jimmie Bise says he’ll show me the ropes, though, and I look forward to working with him in the future. His is one the five blogs I read on a daily basis. Good stuff! You should go check it out, NOW!
And, I started following Meghan McCain on Twitter. She was getting ready to go on Leno last night to talk about politics and the election. With the exception of one race, which is still in question, every single one of her predictions was wrong. My 3-year-old niece could have randomly predicted those races with more accuracy. This leads me to question, why is Jay Leno having Meghan McCain, of all people, on to talk about the election and politics? She clearly doesn’t know anything about, either. Oh yeah! That’s right. I forgot, she got booked on the show the same way she gets everything else in life: By being John McCain’s daughter!
What ever happened to The Other McCain? Well, I checked him out last night to see where he is in Florida, since my own travels have brought me to this glorious state that apparently doesn’t believe in Splenda. Well, at least the hotel I’m staying at the convention center I’m working at doesn’t seem to. I know it’s a little pricey, but it’s not that bad if you buy it in quantity at the local Sam’s Club. WTF?
It appears Stacy is on the other side of the state from me, so there will be no late night partying for the two of us down here, but we will meet up on the other side when we return to the swamp that is our nation’s capital. Fun times ahead!
So, to the election. I’m not surprised by the O’Donnell loss. As much as I don’t like polls, she had been trending downward for weeks and the actual numbers confirm that trend. She had high name recognition but not a high “like” factor. I wanted her to win, but it is not shocking in the least that she didn’t.
As I watched the returns coming in on Election Night and polished off a bottle of vodka, while smoking a pack of ciggies, and yelling at the TV I was once again reminded of the importance of the 10th Amendment. See, if our Congress did their jobs and stuck to what is specifically their jobs, I wouldn’t have to worry so much about who these morons in other states are electing. But, since our elected officials have taken it upon themselves to obliterate any restrictions on their powers as granted in our Founding Documents, I have to worry about the fact that idiots in Nevada voted in Harry Reid.
I understand that major gains were made, but I just don’t get what some people are thinking when they vote. These are the same people that want to vote for change for the sake of change (think 2008), yet when they have an opportunity to really vote in change they go for the person who has been screwing them and the rest of us for decades. No one likes the current situation and it’s not one party or the other that has screwed us. We have screwed ourselves because we continue to elect the same people who have created our current situation.
When is it time to hold the voter’s responsible for their votes? I mean, we can blame the system, or Democrats, or Republicans, or whatever, but when does the time come when we look in the mirror or we look to our left or right and blame ourselves? We hold the power and we lavish it on these undeserving, power-corrupted morons and then complain, complain, complain about the results. They only have the power that we grant them. Yet, we keep granting them more. I just don’t get it.
I’m sick of hearing people say that politics isn’t their thing or they just don’t have time. That’s bullshit! Politics touches every aspect of your life. You can’t make time for that? The government regulates EVERYTHING, down to the zippers on your jeans and the water tank in your toilet. How did the government get so much power? Because, all of these people who “don’t have time” to pay attention. Perhaps they are getting what they deserve, but must they take the rest of us down with them?
I understand that people have kids, work, school, and a million other responsibilities, but it is your number one responsibility as a member of this great nation to become informed about the candidates not through 30 second political ads paid for by someone’s opponent but by doing some research yourself. I didn’t vote for anyone that I didn’t do some research on. If that’s how you’re going to be, then don’t vote. And, while you’re at it, shut up!
I’m sure you have time to watch Dancing With the Stars or baseball or football every week or whatever else numbs your mind, but you can’t set aside one hour to hop on a computer to find out more about who you’re voting for? About the person you are choosing to represent you and wield power over every aspect of your life? That’s taking laziness and stupidity to a whole new level. Everyone has time for politics! It is your duty as a member of this society to make the time because when you vote your choice doesn’t just affect you, it affects us all because that is the power that we as a society have unwittingly allowed our elected officials to take, in direct contradiction and in direct violation of the limits placed on them in our Constitution.

I formally apologize to Meghan McCain.
My friend Steve had a talk with me, yesterday, about my trash talking to Meghan McCain. He has convinced me that calling her fat, slutty, and a whore isn’t helping my argument against her. He told me, since I so succinctly take apart everything she writes, says and does intelligently that I shouldn’t let my point be lost in my over-the-top insults. Now, one could argue that my insults are earned by her, but I tried making that argument and no one was buying it. And, as you can see from the comment of last week, apparently Meggie Macs has a fan out there who thinks I’m just some fat chick projecting my own insecurities onto Meghan. Although one might be convinced I’m halting my vicious attacks because of that one commenter, it’s actually as a result of Steve who was confirming what my friend Mike had already said to me earlier in the week. With that said, I am calling a truce, of sorts, with Meghan. From now on, I will intelligently disagree with her and refrain from making ad hominem attacks. I apologize to Miss McCain for jumping into the gutter and making fun of her weight and rumored promiscuity. Now, onto other news.
I met Jim DeMartino, today. He’s running DC Council in Ward 6. I’m hoping to go to an event tomorrow night with some of the candidates, including Vincent Gray, where I can talk to him and ask him some questions. The best part about Jim DeMartino is that he’s a Republican and the person who told me about him and convinced me to check him out is a registered Democrat. I was talking to my friend about it last night and, basically, he expressed that it’s just not right that the Democrats have such a monopoly on DC and that nothing is ever going to change that way. I would have to say, when a black public school employee in DC is voting for a Republican in DC the Democrats are in some serious trouble.
And, that’s not the only sign things are going badly for Democrats. My irredeemably liberal mother told me that she hopes the Republicans win. Yeah, my liberal, New England, Connecticut resident mother is hoping that the Republicans win. Her reasoning? Things are pretty bad right now. Let the Republicans win. If they have better ideas and can improve things, good for them. Things are so terrible they can’t continue this way, if it takes a Republican to fix it then let a Republican fix it. If they fail, then it just confirms for her that she was right all along and Republicans suck.
I know these are only two personal anecdotes, but if you knew these people like I do you would know this is serious. Life-long, full-fledged Democrats are looking around and saying “This sucks!” And, they are looking at their Democrat representatives and thinking, you suck! Republicans have a real opportunity, here. An opportunity not to just win an election but to stand for something. People are listening and looking to them. Republicans need to get out there and explain their policies and the realities of the situation and turn this economy around. Obama might veto everything they pass, but I don’t think being the “Party of No” will work for the Dems as well as it worked for the Reps.

Moron Meghan McCain versus Coulter Sarah Palin Bristol Palin O’Donnell
Looks like Meghan McCain is up to the tricks that made her famous in the first place–calling out people who have built their own careers rather than riding daddy’s coattails in order to succeed in life. First, she targeted Ann Coulter. For the past year, she’s been targeting Sarah Palin and the whole Palin family. I mean, wasn’t it just last week she was talking about her “Palin Problem”? The problem being that no one cares about her book or what she has to say unless it/she is in some way bashing Sarah Palin? Well, as Jay Z would say, she’s onto the next one. This week, she went after Christine O’Donnell.
Apparently, she was one of four “powerhouse guests” featured on ABC’s this week. No wonder the show is failing. There is nothing “powerhouse” about Meghan McCain, accept for her over-sized waisteline and her Twitterrific breasts. Unless they were calling her a house as in “she’s as big as a house,” but I don’t know the plausibility of that because I didn’t watch the show and I haven’t confirmed if the other three guests were fat enough to be compared to a house.
Apparently, she thinks Christine O’Donnell is “making a mockery of running for public office,” she said. “She has no real history, no real success in any kind of business…[the message] that sends to my generation is: One day you can just wake up and run for Senate, no matter how [much of] a lack of experience you have. And it scares me for a lot of reasons.”
I’m going to refrain from the obligatory Obama joke that is typically owed when someone references a candidate’s lack of experience disqualifying them from being able to run or fill a certain political position. He’s supposed to be running the country, and not into the ground as he and his cronies seem to think. What kind of experience do you need to be a Senator? The experience of Meghan McCain–that of being a spoiled child who has been afforded all of the luxuries possible in life as a birthright rather than as meritorious reward for hard work, dedication and sacrifice?
I can understand why Meggie Macs is upset about O’Donnel’s anti-masturbation campaign, because we all know when she can’t get a guy drunk enough at the bar to take her home at the end of the night she’s forced to partake in some self-loving. But she claims her bigger problem is with allegations against O’Donnell made by the Federal Elections Commission about misuse of campaign funds, failing to pay taxes, and possibly having lied about attending certain colleges. And, of course Fatty-fat-Slut-Slut would have a problem with this because as a trust-fund baby she’s never had to worry about not being able to pay anything and was granted a spot at Columbia University in spite of lacking any intelligence and solely on the basis of her last name. Not all of us were so lucky. Then again, I would have rather lived my life and worked hard and know I am where I am today as a result of me, but we all know she’s too dumb to really take a hard look at herself and her own “accomplishments.”
“Not to mention the fact that she has not had any real success in business, government, or public service,” she wrote in her most recent blog post. This, once again, coming from the (fat) chick whose only “real” success comes from her being John McCain’s daughter. And, then she goes into taking shots at the Tea Partiers. And, then she does what I have come to expect from her when she writes anything, making a claim and following up with a sentence that proves the opposite of what she just claimed:
I am not sure what I find more infuriating, the fact that I am being crucified by many in the media for daring to speak negatively of a woman who has given more than enough reasons to question her candidacy, or the fact that this is something many people are saying off-camera—and then once on, switching their tune to prevent any backlash. Lest we forget Karl Rove himself originally came out publicly against her, only to backtrack on his comments after he was attacked from the right.
I’m not sure what I find more infuriating, the fact that Meghan McCain is fat, stupid, or both and still gets to be on TV and get paid way more than me. But, going back to what she says in that quote, she claims to find it infuriating that people are scared to speak out against O’Donnell unless they are speaking off-camera, and uses Karl Rove who was very publicly against O’Donnell as the evidence to prove that this claim is true because he “backtracked on his comments after he was attacked from the far right.” Did it ever occur to Fatty that Rove backtracked because, I don’t know, he’s a Republican and like it or not, like O’Donnell or not, if you’re a Republican in this election cycle you shouldn’t be bashing your own party’s candidates until all of the votes have been cast?
Moron McCain then proceeds to misunderstand the O’Donnell campaigns response to her idiotic utterings by thinking that they, the O’Donnell campaign, are accusing her, Moron McCain, of not being qualified to run for Senate, which she responds by saying that she’s not running for Senate. Yes, Moron, we know you aren’t running for Senate, but the O’Donnell campaign was insulting you on a much higher level. They weren’t just saying your unqualified to run for Senate, but most Delawareans probably won’t be influenced by what you have to say because of your lack of experience in politics and running for office. Being John McCain’s fat slutty daughter doesn’t make you some political or campaign expert. Missing this point, Moron once again proves how dumb she truly is.
Finally, she gets to what is ultimately her problem with Christine O’Donnell, saying, “But for me, Christine O’Donnell is just not good enough of an example for my generation.” Meghan McCain: YOU ARE NOT A GOOD ENOUGH EXAMPLE OF OR FOR YOUR GENERATION! You are the most frustratingly ignorant tool. Democrats and liberals just use you to take down the political party you claim to be a part of and your father was nominated to represent. To borrow a term, you’re a useful idiot. Nobody, except those who hope to use it against Republicans, cares what you have to say. No one thinks you are intelligent. No one thinks that you are qualified to do anything. Eff, you’re not even qualified to sit there, shut up and look pretty because you fail on the pretty part and can’t seem to ever just shut the eff up!

When was the last time you laughed at SNL?
Monday, October 11, 2010
Saturday Night Live was making fun of Christine O’Donnell, again. Here’s what I don’t get, why do they care so much about this woman? I mean, her campaign is such a long shot, right? Then, why pay her so much time and attention? Like I said last week, her first campaign ad left me unimpressed. And, I don’t know what kind of crazy stuff she’s done in the past. But, I know this much, she is better than her challenger, tax-hiking Chris Coons. I don’t care if they want to make fun of politicians, but at least spread the love around. Or, maybe they don’t waste their time writing jokes about Democrats because the Democrats themselves are already a joke.
And, getting to their non-political skits, they aren’t any funnier. I mean, the whole “Gilly” character sucks and I have never found any sketch involving her even remotely funny. In fact, every time I watch one I am just amazed that this made it to the actual show. That means the person or people writing it thought it was funny, the decision-makers on what gets in thought it was funny and, presumably, the actors acting in it thought it was funny. But, it’s not funny. For a while I kept hoping that SNL would become funny again, but I’m starting to hope that just cancel the show and put us all out of our misery.
Today is National Coming Out Day. It’s being hyped more than usual because the media is blaming the sensationalized suicides by a couple of gay people, recently, on bullying and the public’s general hostility and homophobia toward gays. First of all, there is no sudden epidemic of people killing themselves because they are bullied, whether they were bullied because they are gay, fat, ugly, poor, or whatever other reason a bully might choose. The media is just hyping it in the publics’ mind so that they think there is some pressing epidemic. Also, many studies have shown that gays have higher rates of suicide…even in some European countries traditionally viewed as open and accepting of homosexuals and the homosexual lifestyle, like the Netherlands, for example.
People who commit suicide have issues. There are plenty of people who take their own lives who were never bullied and there are plenty of people who were bullied who never attempted to take their own lives. Bullying, harassing, or demeaning another person for any reason is wrong (with the exception of Meghan McCain, of course!). With that said, harassing and bullying another person does not make you responsible for their decision to end their own life. This is just garbage by the press to exploit normal people’s compassion in order to insulate the homosexual agenda and the homosexual lifestyle itself from any criticism or objection.

Michelle Rhee is supposed to announced her resignation as DC school chancellor this morning, according to my local news. That is a shame, but we all saw this coming. Parents in the District decided to vote against their children by casting a vote against mayor Adrien Fenty, who had appointed Rhee to do whatever it took to turn around DC’s dismally failing public schools. Rhee has been aggressive, fired useless teachers, taken on the teachers unions, and DC public schools have shown signs of life and improvement. For this, Fenty was voted off the Democrat ticket in the primary and now Rhee is leaving, too. Way to go DC residents! You really showed them! Too bad your kids will pay the price for your poor choices, but they’ve been paying that price, anyway. What do you care?

Happy birthday to my older brother, Tom! Wish I was up in CT so I could do the TK’s run with everyone. I can’t remember the last time I was able to spend a birthday at TK’s. I must work on that in the future. Maybe for my 31st? I’m planning on hitting Vegas for my 30th…
I saw some peeps updating their statuses last night in response to the Chilean miners being rescued. A lot of people were praising Chile and saying how awesome Chile is. Um, do that not know that it was an American who rescued them? In fact, everything about this successful and miraculous rescue was American. Nothing against Chile, but this whole episode has just reminded how exceptional and awesome America is. At least, that’s what it did for me. But, I’m one of those pesky people who thinks America is exceptional and awesome, anyway, so what would else would you expect?

To wish Robert Stacy McCain, of The Other McCain, a very happy birthday! I know, I usually don’t post until Friday, but this occasion warranted a midweek post.
Happy birthday, Stacy!!!
