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."

Umm, he said that in front of reporters?

Interesting. Does he deny it or is it a false story?

From the article:

John McCain's temper is well documented. He's called opponents and colleagues "shitheads," "assholes" and in at least one case "a fucking jerk." . . .

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.

The man who was known as "McNasty" in high school has erupted in foul-languaged tirades at political foes and congressional colleagues more-or-less throughout his career, and his quickness to anger has been an issue on the presidential campaign trail as evidence of his fury has surfaced.

"The public certainly has to know what this guy might do as president," Schecter says. Examples like the ones in his book "should worry people, quite frankly."


Huh.

Oh, and I suppose no one else ever does or thinks that...


Sounds to me like a normal guy. :)

I'd never call my wife a cunt. (not in public, anyway)

If this is true, then I will reconsider my opinion of JM. If he treats his wife that way, no matter how tired, wow.

I have to research and see if its actually true now.

I can only find this on "Hater" sites.

Didn't this incident occur like twenty years ago?

Check out his daughter's blog. If his wife is holding any grudges, it doesn't show. She's got my vote for first lady...she looks a WHOLE lot better than the other two contenders. hahahah

Admittedly that was extreme...but I've seen guys say a lot worse...and somehow get away with it...hmm.

Besides, she did call him bald. ;)


Either way I'm not a Republican so I couldn't care less.

Can we say 'bullshit' children? Now let's use it in a sentence.

Dont worry. The NY Crimes will publish it soon enough. Just because of the "seriousness" of the charges, not because of any evidence to the fact.

This is a non-story, even if it's true, but it is kind of comical. What people do in their personal lives isn't indicative to what they'll do in office. McCain lying about the situation in Iraq is a far bigger story but that has been ignored by the mainstream media. Instead, the big story is Obama's wife saying that this is the first time she has ever been really proud of her country with the word "really" edited out.

I went to the county rodeo to see Bubba, my first real love in an even month. He looked so rugged and handsome I couldn't help myself so I ran as fast as I could. In my hurry for my rodeo man I stepped in a big heaping pile of steaming bullshit. Bubba didn't care though, he swung me around and around so it would fly off my feet. I love Bubba!:LOL:

How is this news?  We have war criminals sitting in the white house.  They spy on us.  They don't care that you know that.  Furthemore, what can we expect.  He spent years in a prison camp being tortured.  I'm sure he's had to deal with significant effects.  PTSD, depression, agressive behaviour.  These are things he has likely dealt with that no one ever speaks of.  He did his time as a soldier, I salute him for that, but it doesn't change the fact that he may just be an angry fella.
