John McCain: 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' Repeal Study Flawed

Thursday, December 2, 2010


Speaking of "flawed", out of the mouth of an HP favorite, Meghan McCain:

During an event at Manhattan'­s Time-Life building Wednesday night, McCain blasted Assange for publishing hundreds of thousands of classified documents pertaining to the wars in Iraq and Afghanista­n.

"I disagree with what he did. I think it's un-America­n," said McCain, characteri­zing Assange as a "creepy rogue Swedish guy.  He looks like a James Bond villain. He harbors a lot of ill will toward America. To me he's a villain."

FYI - Julian Assange is an Australian­.

McCain called the leaks "provocati­ve on every level" and said they had "changed the way Americans view the war."

If that's true, it's a good thing, and it's about time.

She was participat­ing in a panel discussion about who Time magazine's 2010 Person of the Year should be. Assange is one of the candidates­. On Thursday morning, he was leading a reader poll, with more than 10,600 votes as of the time of this posting.


Time convenes the panel every fall in advance of its annual late-Decem­ber issue recognizin­g the person, group of people, place, machine or idea that "for better or for worse ... has done the most to influence the events of the year."

And to whom does McCain think that honor should go?

"The tea party is definitely my big nominee," she said. "We're seeing a cultural shift from the likes that my father says he hasn't seen in his lifetime. What I saw rumbling underneath during 2008 has really come to the surface." Second choice: Glenn Beck. "He's very biased, considers himself a commentato­r, not a journalist­," said McCain. "These are the times we're living in. This is what journalism is today."

This young woman is an id-jit.  Why would HP ever help her remain in the public eye and host her articles?  What has she ever done, ever accomplish­ed, to have her opinions front and foremost on the most widely circulated news website?  

Serious websites need to take responsibi­lity for the dvmbing down of the nation and stop showcasing these mental lightweigh­ts.
