Meghan McCain fires back after conservative body slam
Meghan McCain, daughter of former presidential contender Senator John McCain, is involved in a hot conservative cat fight right now. McCain, a right-wing youngster with a daily political blog of her own, apparently said some nasty things about Anne Coulter (who hasn’t) and Coulter’s mean-girl BFF, Laura Ingraham, fired back and not in a particularly constructive way.
Recently my not-size-0 body has come under fire again by the conservative pundit Laura Ingraham. On her radio show recently, she sarcastically commented that I was “too plus-sized to be a cast member on the television show The Real World” and needled me about my weight with a comment about Barbie’s 50th anniversary. Instead of intellectually debating our ideological differences about the future of the Republican Party, Ingraham resorted to making fun of my age and weight, in the fashion of the mean girls in high school.

McCain went on to discuss how she’s been heavy her whole life and admitted that she constantly battles her fluctuating weight. I may not see eye to eye with Meghan on many issues but I definitely understand where she’s coming from on this one. And it’s nice to know that looking like an amaciated scarecrow isn’t a prerequisite for female conservatives.
