    She's not even the first Repugnant daughter this last campaign cycle who has gay friends and has published a book.


    Still working on "multi-award winning website ..."

    Reading that was like listening to the douche bags I went to school with who used summer as a verb - painful and left me hoping that got genital warts.

    Having redefined the phrase 'proud family tradition', in three generations the McCains have gone from highly respected five star general to barely tolerable angry troll general to vapid self aggrandizing bloggeress. I am guessing that Megan's children will eventually star in a republican-themed 'reality' dating show. After that? Elephant v. Donkey bumfights.

    @GeraldineHyperion: Yeah, it's kind of a shame no one takes Meghan as seriously as Meghan does. *snort* It must be really hard making that transition from riding daddy's coattails to being remotely relevant on your own merit, something most of us will never struggle with.

    I feel the majority of the commentariat here have unfairly scoffed at the accomplishments of Lady Meghan. And had Meghan McCain taken a real job, we'd of likely excoriated her for taking a job away from the starving peasant who needed it. The solarium of the dynastic-born contains torments most of us can barely conceive of. While we tie-off and slam schadenfreude into our arteries, Lady Meghan suffers real injustice.

    Psst, Meghan, a little hint from your old pal Hydroceph. The louder you shriek, the less we believe you.

    @Hydroceph: Ain't it the truth. I've had salesfolk reassuring me of their honesty before I asked, and it is sort of unnerving. And I really have not experienced one single exception to the rule that whoever told me he was exceptional wasn't, else he wouldn't've had to tell me.


    From somewhere in The Rivals: "It's good I knew before you were a gentleman, for I never would've discovered it from this conversation."

    Whoa! Quite the potty mouth on that young lady!


    So...I read her "resume", and I still want to know what job she has held, cause there ain't none listed on there. Instead we get a whole heap of after school activities and internships, and writing some crap (or hiring others to do it for you, which is most likely the case with the books).

    @misslinda: She used her junior college application packet. Delivered flowers to hospitalized children. She needs that if she didn't have the grades or the SAT.


    Did postgraduate work in high school...

    @PrincessKashmir: You know you've arrived when there's a blog dedicated to your typos and grammar errors.

    At least Yglesias has a Preview button, so there's really no excuse.


    Funnily, Sullivan rarely has typos or noticeable errors- i know he has a few (proofreading?) interns, but pretty good for a stoner.

    When I saw the Twitter pic with the hat, I realized where I recognized her from. She used to Hot Dog on a Stick at Metrocenter mall.
