No more ignorant than telling a man in a wheelchair to stand up.
Actually....it's probably way LESS ignorant, considering she has nothing to do with anything.
Meghan McCain: ‘No one knows what war is like other than my family. Period.’»
In an interview on the Today Show this morning, host Meredith Vieira asked Meghan McCain about Sen. Barack Obama’s (D-IL) comments that Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) “doesn’t get it.” Meghan responded by pointing to her dad’s service in Vietnam and her two brothers who are currently enlisted. She then went a step further, however, saying that her family is the only family that understands war:

By all appearances, yes, she is that ignorant.
(I think she left out the words, "in this race")
..........um, probably between her family and the family of the man that accused her father of not getting it, perhaps. just a hunch maybe.
I don't think she meant it the way it came out. She's not running for president anyway, so I don't care even if she did.
Neither are Rev. Wright, William Ayers, or Mic e Obama but tell that to republicans.
I agree with Manny on this. Her opinions are completely irrelevant (but apparently they make for good news filler).
Then she really needs to stay off the morning talk shows.
Asbolutely agree. But you know the justification used on this board.
"If she/he is putting her/himself out there on behalf of the campaign....."
Its true to an extent though. The campaign would gladly take any benefits they get from family surrogates. So they should in theory take the flak too, right?
I don't get the need to have her out there to begin with, because of how little I value her opinion.
Typical Repug distraction.
The rabble much prefers to be roused by trivial, superficial than face the problems facing USA.
Repugs are absolutely brilliant at appealing to the Least Common Denominator.
Right, she's fair game as soon as she sits down for the interview, but she's not even worth going after.
Fair game, fair game . . .
I remember when that conservative senator (Italian last name) had his family beside him while giving some speach, and one of her daughters was crying, there were some resident liberals scoffing at her (I remember boutons being one) and claiming she was fair game simply for being in the podium.
A slip of the tongue works both ways.
Go ahead, beat up on another woman; see how that works for you.
Thats photoshopped or she has a remarkably small head.
Poor little rich girl. I don't give a crap what she has to say.
I don't understand why people are QUICK to jump on Mic e Obama and you never hear anything about this woman.... at all.
My first time seeing her was during the Repub convention.
Why does anyone give a what Meghan McCain thinks?
Because people jump all over Mic e Obama anytime she opens her mouth.
Ok, she's going on Larry King tonight. it, if the campaign wants to keep trotting her out then I say she's fair game.
I thought the McCain campaign declared Larry King Live verboten? (Larry King is such a savage, probing interviewer, and all)
Her interview with Larry King:
King: What do you like about her (Palin)?
McCain: First of all, she's really chill. She's really nice, really friendly. She's really up on pop culture, which I always respect. She's very smart. She doesn't act en led, which unfortunately sometimes you get with some politicians. She's just like your average girl, like just a mom. But she's very, very shrewd, very smart. I've heard her talking about issues.
