Remember back in the election when people were pushing what a stand up honorable guy McCain was/is? Well, he’s so stand up he won’t even defend his own daughter from being called a fat ass by the nutjob Laura Ingrahm:
You would think that John McCain would stick up for his own daughter against the right-wing kook fringe like Coulter and Ingraham after she was attacked not over her ideas, but her body composition, right? I mean any father would say to knock that off. It’s out of line. The Limbaugh National Committee already hates him. And he still couldn’t do the fatherly thing. What a guy. What a dad.
Digby explains.Today, in his “Twitterview” with ABC’s George Stephanopoulos, Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) shied away from condemning Ingraham’s gratuitous attacks on his daughter. Stephanopoulos asked McCain, “What do you think of Meghan’s feud with Coulter and Ingraham?” McCain first said, “I’m proud of my daughter and she has a right to her opinions.” When asked if he agrees with his daughter, McCain did not say, simply stating, “like any family we agree on some things and disagree on others.”
What a pussy. Honor, conviction and courage…
