The vapidity - it burns with the white-hot intensity of 1,000 suns.

Not that you needed any further proof that the "Tweeter I Love to Hate" is as dumb as a box of hair, but her latest "column" for the Daily Beast about a fellow narcissist is such a veritable paean to stupidity, ignorance, castle towers, and silver spoons that it took my breath away:

Let’s face it, it’s easy to preach to the converted and many people have mastered the art of the negative sound bite. If I want to hear the liberal bias, I will turn on MSNBC. If I want to hear conservative dogma, I will turn on Fox. But where do people go to listen to the Joe Liebermans of the world? Where can we hear voices that dare to cross party lines, think outside the box, and say what they truly believe? If this country wants to simply be a place of extreme partisan politics, I think we are well on our way. If people like Senator Lieberman are treated with such disrespect for daring to be true to their political beliefs, there will really be no hope for independent thinkers of my generation to be inspired to join the political process.

The entire "piece" (such as it is) is replete with the linguistic equivalent of styrofoam peanuts - no substance, just filler. It is written by someone who insists she is "in politics", yet has ZERO ability to recognize that "politics" is a rough-and-tumble place peopled with venal, self-important twatwaffles and douchemooks like Lieberfuck, people who relish exerting their power more than anything else.

I'm serious, Meghan. Get a fucking job. Get off your mother's teat and try living in this country without the support of your beer heiress mama. Then maybe you'll see why the rest of the country supports a plan your dear daddy's BFF is against.

But where do people go to listen to the Joe Liebermans of the world?

Um...pretty much fucking everywhere?

But where do people go to listen to the Joe Liebermans of the world?

and my question is: Why would you fucking WANT TO listen to the self-serving liar??? And the next question you've got to ask, is how much is Daddy or Lieberman paying MsTits to write ABOUT Holy Joe???

[darkblack]

'...people like Senator Lieberman are treated with such disrespect for daring to be true to their political beliefs...'

If by 'political beliefs' Ms. McCain means 'his wife's corporate machinations and his own overdeveloped sense of vengeance at having his entitlement threatened by the unwashed', d'accord.

The rest of this Polanski apologist-style screed ('dare I say maverick' describing Graham and Lieberman ought to qualify Meghan for steady wheelbarrow duty helping Lieberman with his ginormous balls while out and about the Beltway) was no doubt scribbled on a cocktail napkin whilst in transit to a fancy party where only people who don't have to worry about health care or mortgages are invited.

Some people think they don't have to try very hard to be the voice of a generation.

;>)

[wa ching]

independent thinkers of my generation ...

Like they even exist.

[watertiger]

the thing is - she doesn't even know what "independent thinking" MEANS.

[EvilDrPuma]

I get this feeling that WT doesn't like Meghan McCain. Or Joe Lieberman (but who does?).

[donna]

"But Uncle Joe always brought me candy when he came over to fuck with Daddy, he's such as nice guy..."

[Hecate]

Also gotta love the "wah, wah, wah" if you people keep being mean my generation will go galt and sit around and bitch and then that will show you. What watertiger said. Get a job. Go empty bedpans -- without your publicist -- at Walter Reed.

[pansypoo]

because the vichy were the tru heros.

where is her support for republikkklan 'traitors'?

[mothra]

Twatwaffle? Love it.

Meghan: But where do people go to listen to the Joe Liebermans of the world?

Try up your ass.

Oh how wonderful and insightful.

And to think that UMass is feeding the beast and I'm sure paying hefty speaking fees for her appearance. She doesn't need Mama's teat, she's latched onto the great wingnut welfare/pundit teat. She gets the spot that Novak had.

Its no sense wishing an idiot pundit be gone because they seem to reproduce as fast as lies fly on the teevee screen.

"The older generation needs to understand that my generation does not respond well to anger, hate, and personal attacks."

That's wonnerful. Tell that to Rush and Beck you simpleton.

[youjustneverknow]

"The linguistic equivalent of styrofoam peanuts" -- brilliant, WT!

[montag]

She certainly seems to have a crush on Daddy's Best Friends Forever, doesn't she...?

Lessee... Meghan McTwit as Dorothy... Daddy as the Tin Man... Graham as the Cowardly Lion... Lieberman as the Scarecrow... maybe Cheney as the Wizard....

Hmm. Has lots of potential for perversion and scatology, methinks. See Dorothy seduce a chunk of tin. See the Wizard torture the Munchkins, etc., etc.

Watertiger - Meghan McCain is not a conservative. She's not a wingnut. She's not a fundie. She's barely even a Republican.

Truth is she's just on her Dad's team, and she liked Lieberman because he campaigned for her Dad.

It's real hard to dislike someone who crosses the floor from the other party to campaign for your Dad. That's her perspective, and it's her perfectly reasonable excuse.

Now if anyone ELSE wrote a "who'll listen to Lieberman" column - and I'm sure there are dozens of cynical beltway hacks without the singular McCain household perspective doing that right now - they'd have no excuse and be deserving of all the barrowloads of snark and contempt the blogosphere could deliver.

[watertiger]

i might give her a pass if she didn't hold herself out to be a savvy youngster in politics. So long as she presents herself as the "new voice of the republican party", I will keep her in the snark crosshairs.

the only reason she has a forum like the Daily Beast is because of who her daddy is. She is the quintessence of "being born on third base thinking she'd hit a triple." (May Molly Ivins rest in peace...)

[moistenedbink]

Well luckily for Meghan, the world will always need beer. That will keep her in money and away from having to experience real hard work and being fucked over by the banksters.

Meggie, honey. Try giving up the money uploaded to your bank account each month from the magic Mommy fairy. Really, even for 6 months. Go without and go see how to pay rent, buy food, pay for health insurance and car insurance (as well as a car). That's if you can find a job in this economy. Do you have any skills? Without having to rely on family connections to put you on TV? How will you buy your fabulous clothes? How will you pay to go out to the hot spots at night?
Sucks, doesn't it? Well, that's the way it is for the rest of us darling. Word.

"Fabulous clothes"?

Her outfits look like they come from Walmart.

[HarpoSnarx]

"But where do people go to listen to the Joe Liebermans of the world?"

See the previous photo.

[Max]

I'd love her as the new voice of the Republican party! She's shallow, naive, spoiled, sure - but we can blame her parents for that.

But she is not an insane wingnut. That's not much of a qualification, but it makes her a stand-out on the right these days.

[watertiger]

on the contrary, max. I'd love the crazy wingnuts as the "voice" of the republican party.

that would guarantee them 40 years in the wilderness.

[tellybelly]

"Fabulous clothes"?

Considering Walmart's reputation for union-busting, out and proud violation of labor laws, sucking on the government teat (yeah, you can get health insurance, here's the forms to apply for government benefits) and their well-proven success at helping destroy rural America and small town businesses, I would imagine that those facts alone render Walmarts' clothing 'fabulous' to anyone who hates America and Americans as much as her daddy, his BFF Joe and, in fact, the entire wingnut universe hate America and Americans...
