Straight Talk from John McCain

Three reporters from Arizona, on the condition of anonymity, also let me in on another incident involving McCain’s intemperateness. In his 1992 Senate bid, McCain was joined on the campaign trail by his wife, Cindy, as well as campaign aide Doug Cole and consultant Wes Gullett. At one point, Cindy playfully twirled McCain’s hair and said, “You’re getting a little thin up there.” McCain’s face reddened, and he responded, “At least I don’t plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt.” McCain’s excuse was that it had been a long day. If elected president of the United States, McCain would have many long days.

“At least I don’t plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt.”. That’s certainly some straight talk, but hardly the kind I think is appropriate for your brewing heiress trophy wife whose money has made your political ambitions possible. That kind of language isn’t appropriate for ANYONE. If I had been Cindy McCain, I would have belted the guy right across the chops: it’s not like her husband could fight back, given that his arms barely work as a result of his imprisonment and torture in Viet Nam.

Remarks like this make me wonder what McCain said as he walked out in his first wife: the one who raised his children alone while he was a POW, and who he left after she was crippled in a car accident.

Straight talkin’ John McCain.
