Meghan McCain: Of course conservative women face a double standard
posted at 10:00 pm on November 12, 2009 by Allahpundit
C’mon, you know I had to post it. Meggie Mac — on the Factor? Talking about Sarahcuda? If O’Reilly had worked in an atheism angle, this would be an out-of-body experience.
I hope/assume she’s going to get some (very grudging) respect for defending right-wing women. Don’t let me down. Exit quotation: “Through it all, the example both Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin set is so admirable.”

Hillary? What example would that be? When the tough cookie act didn’t work, turn on the tears in New Hampshire?
Wethal on November 12, 2009 at 10:04 PM
That was my first thought. Goodbye postage stamp. Hello Widescreen.
lorien1973 on November 12, 2009 at 10:04 PM
How would she know?
Jim-Rose on November 12, 2009 at 10:05 PM
Conservative women get the most harsh and disgusting attacks. Hillary was badly attacked too, but not to the extent Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann are.
Kudos to Meghan! It was a pretty good discussion.
cubachi on November 12, 2009 at 10:05 PM
Who does she like in the Crist / Rubio match?

I thought Meghan looked very nice tonight. It looks like she may have lost some weight too, good for her I know how hard that can be.
I wish she would grow up a little and quit sounding like a brainless twit. Even if she says something intelligent, its hard to tell because of the way she talks.
Lily on November 12, 2009 at 10:06 PM
I’m sorry I posted that Allah.
As an apology, I’m going to get you a T-Shirt that says “In a a parallel dimension somewhere, I’M too good for Meghan McCain.”
Kasper Hauser on November 12, 2009 at 10:06 PM
Off Topic
Did anyone else catch the twisted logic of the so-called “College Professor” on Hannity’s show tonight?
vis-a-vis, Carrie Prejean, paraphrased…
College Professor: “Carrie Prejean made a bigoted statement.” (anti-gay marriage)
Hannity: “She held the same position as Obama.”
College Professor: “Obama is a politician.. He doesn’t REALLY believe that… He’s just SAYING it.”
Hannity: “That you’re a College Professor scares me.”
Heh,heh,heh
franksalterego on November 12, 2009 at 10:06 PM
“Through it all, the example both Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin set is so admirable.”
Comparing Cankles Testicle LockBox HilRod to SarahCuda is
an outrage,and slap to any Conservative women!!(Sarc).

Doesn’t your mother ever ask you why you’re spending so much time on your computer in the basement?
You’ve just disgustingly confirmed the perceptions of both women on that O’Reilly segment.
Drained Brain on November 12, 2009 at 10:11 PM
I have to say: she is a really beautiful-looking woman.
OT, but awesome: Newt declares healthcare dead.
John the Libertarian on November 12, 2009 at 10:11 PM
She is cute, but that doesn’t make her credible.
TXMomof3 on November 12, 2009 at 10:12 PM
I see what you did there……
BigWyo on November 12, 2009 at 10:12 PM
Its STILL Megan McCain…who cares!!!
Vigilante on November 12, 2009 at 10:12 PM
I think Meghan has definitely matured over the past year…maybe she’s learned from some of her past missteps? She did a good job here.
Skt510 on November 12, 2009 at 10:12 PM
Megan needs to hook up with Levi Johnston .
borntoraisehogs on November 12, 2009 at 10:13 PM
When I need the 411 on what the Conservative movement needs I turn to Meghan McCain.
Fur sure.
NeoKong on November 12, 2009 at 10:13 PM
Oh, I see the specific comment on which I commented has been deleted. As a conservative male husband, father, and grandfather, let me just offer my opinion that there is a double standard.
Carry on.

She actually did pretty well except for her “bobble head” routine when Gretchen Carlson was speaking.

Why didn’t she wear the dress she has on in Jim Treacher’s post on his web site. That would get the comments going.
Dire Straits on November 12, 2009 at 10:17 PM
How would she know? she is not a conservative, as a matter of fact I believe she may have been a contributor to the double standard.
shar61 on November 12, 2009 at 10:17 PM
Say something positive about Megan McCain.
Hmmm…
…
Ooh, okay, in this clip she didn’t say anything that I would want to kick her out of the party for. Go Megan! Personal best performance ever!

Can we get some muslim psychiatrist to “take care” of all those nasty McCains?

MegaMac has been losing her RINO cred. She’s got to do some conservative time on FOX to get back on the View. Nothing more.
ROCnPhilly on November 12, 2009 at 10:23 PM
Why, after reading this, did I have a “Bond-ian” flashback of AP leaning back in his chair and stroking his…

Great, so she has a new audience aside from the thousands of prepubescents on twitter and the 16 people who watch the View. Factor audience, welcome to our hell.

Anybody know what that “female double standard” stuff they were speaking of is all about…?
JoeinTX on November 12, 2009 at 10:28 PM
There are certain times where Megan actually does look cute, but this is not one of those times. Her hair looks flat and it doesn’t help her face in my opinion.
MobileVideoEngineer on November 12, 2009 at 10:28 PM
Her dad has the record for most unsuccessful runs for POTUS.

The new memory hole is almost up and running.
I approve of women losing the baby fat.
BL@KBIRD on November 12, 2009 at 10:30 PM
She has boobs, and flaunts them. There are a lot of women like that, but she has money also so she can show up a lot of places to flaunt them. Places like…Larry King or clubbing with Tila Tequila.
Spirit of 1776 on November 12, 2009 at 10:32 PM
OT, but awesome: Carly kicking butt on Greta tonight. She’s got my vote.
John the Libertarian on November 12, 2009 at 10:36 PM
Yup. I’d take her over Prejean.
MadisonConservative on November 12, 2009 at 10:36 PM
I liked most of it…but she needs to read Thomas Sowell’s Economic Facts and Fallacies. That 70 cents to every dollar thing made me cringe.

Intellectually, I think Dianetics is more her speed… and a ‘probable’.

As matters stand now, with a Congress poised to severely curtail our political and economic liberties, what purpose is served by paying the least bit of attention to Mega Meghan? She is irrelevant.
ya2daup on November 12, 2009 at 10:39 PM
You’re moronic, hateful spew does not deserve to be quoted. Go fornicate with a bag of rusty razor blades.
ynot4tony2 on November 12, 2009 at 10:41 PM
She is quite pretty, and she seemed nervous.
Mmmmmm…chicken parm sandwich! I wonder if Hardee’s (the Southern version of Carl’s Jr…) will have it.
SouthernGent on November 12, 2009 at 10:41 PM
Crazy, man, crazy.
Spirit of 1776 on November 12, 2009 at 10:41 PM
Are conservative women treated fairly in the media and politics?
The point they were making too was that some of the most heinous things to be said about Sarah Palin came from women. And Meghan pointed out that it seems one can only be considered (by the left and the MSM) a feminist if one is a democrat.
Annietxgrl on November 12, 2009 at 10:41 PM
That’s not funny, not even in sarcasm. Jesus. One week ago today and you try to use that as a joke? What’s wrong with you?
Annietxgrl on November 12, 2009 at 10:43 PM
Yes, but…a clock that is one minute too fast is never right.
I never cared for that broken clock analogy.

Doorgunner on November 12, 2009 at 10:45 PM
Just to add a touch of substance to my stupid comments, if McCain’s running mate was a man with a pregnant daughter, yeah he would have been ripped. It would have been Quayle like. But the conservatives get it much worse then liberals.
Spirit of 1776 on November 12, 2009 at 10:46 PM
I wonder if Megan is going to Obie’s job summit?
Dire Straits on November 12, 2009 at 10:48 PM
Sure…it may look like I confused “you’re” and “your”…but re-read. It works either way.
Whew! Just a little CYA on my part…
ynot4tony2 on November 12, 2009 at 10:48 PM
Sorry guys…but WTF? “she’s cute, she’s pretty, she’s got big boobs”
Her looks have nothing to do with the fact she’s labeled a RINO. I thought she presented her points well tonight and kudos to her!
I know you mean no harm but pluuuueeezzeee! : )
Annietxgrl on November 12, 2009 at 10:48 PM
shes not a rino
people misuse rino all the time
blatantblue on November 12, 2009 at 10:50 PM
How she can include the name Hillary Clinton in the same sentence as Sarah Palin and the word admirable is beyond me.
The Ugly American on November 12, 2009 at 10:50 PM
When I think of a RINO I think Dede Scozza. The RINO label, frankly, confuses the hell out of me. I guess I’d be labeled a RINO since I’m a fiscal conservative/quasi-social liberal.
Annietxgrl on November 12, 2009 at 10:54 PM
Annie, you took my comments litterally. Go back and re-read my earlier post and you’ll see something you missed.
But, the boobs are a nice throw-in………:)

God strike me dead……..I never, ever thought I’d say that but dark times yada, yada, yada….
JoeinTX on November 12, 2009 at 10:57 PM
Hillary Clinton was hit with some smarmy sexism during the primaries. It was sickening to see how her own party treated her: O with his middle finger salute, O with his “I’ve got 99 problems but a bitch ain’t one of them”.
Kinda like how some in our own party have treated and continue to treat Sarah Palin.

The democrat McCain gave us the civil war we are in now. I hope no harm comes to you or anyone you value, but people most certainly will die because of garbage like McCain, Gingrich and Scozafozza.
noblejones on November 12, 2009 at 10:58 PM
You think I’m a Democrat, littlebrain? No, far from it. Not even in my youth.
I’m a civilized conservative who has a low tolerance for rectums like yourself who make “jokes” in such bad taste that you drag down the rest of the conservative movement be associating yourself with it.
STFU and realize you’re not helping.

Again, your drivel does not deserve to be quoted. Just because I take offense with your joking about mass murder and realize the damage it can do to the reputation of this website for even temporarily hosting your hateful comment, that does not mean I’m a McCain defender.
Logic is not your strong suit. Neither is class. Neither is humor.
But if you’re going to do as your told, then go find that bag of rusty razor blades already…

Yeah, the “joke” was in poor taste. I apologize. It was in poor taste in relation to the fine folks at Fort Hood, though. As for McCain, no low is too low.
As such, I apologize to you as well. I just loathe the McCains for what they have done to what was once the United States. McCain will have blood on his hands.
noblejones on November 12, 2009 at 11:13 PM
Hillary let every woman on the planet sleep with her husband so she could one day secure a position of political power. I don’t find that admirable.
But it’s good to know that Meghan McCain gets a perpetual free pass while Palin posts come anchored with a compliment/defense + “BUT…” or some snarky, convoluted put down. But hey, that’s where the commenter comes in. Yay!
Dongemaharu on November 12, 2009 at 11:16 PM
I really, really do not like MMcCain. Having her next to Gretchen Carlson just made it worse. YUK.
ORconservative on November 12, 2009 at 11:35 PM
She keeps talking about “My Dad this…” and “My Dad that…” but she is Liberal to the core with an Uber Rich Mother (nothing wrong with that)…
I think her next move is to be a guest star on
The Love BoatEntourage.Seven Percent Solution on November 12, 2009 at 11:48 PM
In other words, Hillary is a dog, and Sarah is beautiful.

I agree, John. She is pretty, and I would hope that most of the posters here at Hot Air are above making demeaning comments about her looks.
Her 8th grade writing level though…. well, that’s fair game.
Nonetheless, I’d definitely hit it.
