Meghan McCain “The View” Video: “Kiss My Fat Ass!”
Almost First Daughter Meghan McCain pulled a page from the Book of Tyra, telling the haters to “Kiss Her Fat Ass,” on the March 16 edition of The View.
The 23-year-old daughter of Arizona senator John McCain–who has spent the last week feuding with pundit Ann Coulter– got fired up when the ladies of The View asked about her reaction to a plus-sized wisecrack conservative radio host Laura Ingraham made about her size 8 frame last week.
Meghan replied: “I’m a political writer on a blog and all of a sudden I’m too fat to write? … I work out at the gym and try and eat healthy, but I’m still a size eight.” She says she recalled when Tyra Banks appeared on her talk show in a bathing suit and announced that everyone could kiss her fat ass.
“That’s what I feel like saying right now: Kiss My Fat Ass. There is no place for weight criticism in 2009.”

Here's what Miss Ingraham posted on her website just after the show started, and after the blogs went crazy.:
“USEFUL IDIOT” WATCH…
Memo to Meghan McCain: Enjoy the media coverage while it lasts, but know you’re being used. You are the flavor of the month in left-wing media land because you are a Republican bashing the GOP. Likewise, your dad is most popular among the same people when he is slamming his Republican brethren in full-blown “maverick” fashion. At least he backs up his views with a lifetime of sacrifice and public service. What is Ms. McCain’s own political, business, or real-world experience that lends credibility to her argument that the GOP needs to “moderate” (read: abandon its core principles)?
Now the Left is seizing on one satirical line from our show to paint Meghan as the victim of a right-wing hate crime. This comes from the same playbook responsible for the ongoing demonization of Rush Limbaugh — where his take on President Obama’s economic policies are misrepresented as some kind of attack on America.
The left’s over-heated indignation over my throw-away satirical line in a five-minute monologue is totally phony. They look the other way when obvious personal attacks are used against conservatives. Remember when Al Franken was the toast of all media for his book “Rush Limbaugh is a Big Fat Idiot”? Last month The View’s Joy Behar called him a “fat guy”; and when I was a guest on The View a few years back she ridiculed Ann Coulter and me as “peroxide” blondes on Fox.
Next time, just for fun, Meghan should pretend that she’s had a change of heart and is now a pro-life conservative. Then she’ll really see how the Mean Girls treatment feels.
