Beastly Miss Meghan Says, 'Don't Call Me a Slut!'

By Robert Stacy McCain on 10.16.09 @ 11:44AM

Meghan McCain would be well advised to stop exercising her First Amendment rights and instead invoke her Fifth Amendment right to remain silent, as determined under Miranda v. Arizona. Everything she says can and will be used against her in the court of public opinion.

The title of her latest column for Tina Brown's Daily Beast is "Don't Call Me a Slut." Well, one can't prove a negative, so if at this late point in her juvenile punditry career she has decided to stake her claim on a reputation for spotless chastity, perhaps she'll call character witnesses to attest her non-sluttishness. And good luck with that.

As to the other memorable claims of her Daily Beastliness, Ms. Meghan suggests that she is being criticized merely "because I have breasts," a trait she shares with 51% of adult humanity. This absurd assertion requires correction:

It was not Meghan's possession of large breasts, nor her display thereof, which has been the object of criticism. Rather, it was her childish online tantrum -- "getting the f**k off Twitter," she whined -- in reaction to online rudeness that enhanced her laughingstock status.

Excuse the asterisk-starred obscenity, but Ms. Meghan's online ouevre involves quite a copious output of epithets. Don't worry about those nasty blog commenters, sweetheart. I've warned them repeatedly: NO FAT JOKES!

And also, DON'T CALL HER A SLUT!

(Is it my fault they don't all obey me?)

It would be nice to live in a world where everyone treated others with respect at all times but that fantasy is a fanciful as the Utopia many leftists wish to create.

I'm much less well known than Ms. McCain but I received plenty of hate comments in the wake of my appearance in the You Tube GOP debate. I merely urged the candidates to stay in Iraq and people went nuts.

They best way to deal with this stuff is to laugh it off. I chronicle my favorite hateful comments and put them on display here:

A bit of levity in the midst of the storm! Thanks for the chuckle.
It would be nice if all of the idiot sons and daughters of the political class stayed off the stage and out of the light.
Who cares comes to mind at the utterances and actions of most if not all of them, or possibly get a real job, but that would be asking too much.
