why is McCain's daughter Bridget never on stage with him?

But the FACT that you continue to ignore.... HE did not have ANY of his kids on the campaign TRAIL that did not choose to be there. Not in 2000 (which I assume is what you meant) and not today. HE LETS HIS KIDS LIVE THEIR OWN LIVES AND MAKE THEIR OWN CHOICES. To continue to act as though this is a political decision by John is idiotic. If he really was using his knowledge on how to operate campaings and is "hiding kids that might hurt his campaign".... why wouldn't he also be "touting the kids that would help it"???

How many of you knew he had two kids in the military right now?

How many of you knew that one of this "warmongers" kids is in Iraq? Hell, I pay attention to him and I did not know that one.

He keeps his kids out of it, unless they choose to participate (as Meghan has done) ALL of them have the choice.


Because McCain is a smart polititian. He knows, like John Kerry did not know, that bringing an issue into a campaign makes the downside to that issue fair game. If McCain braged about his kid in Iraq, he would be open to questions about why he did not discuss his other kids. He would also be open to more questions about his support of a failed miserable mistake of a war in Iraq.

It is great political cover for the nieve to belive that he "let his children decide". We ALL know that kids are easily manipulated by parents. His kids may really belive they decided.
 
The young woman and the story of her joining their family would help him with democrats and you people all know that is true.

McCain himself was attacking Chelsea as of just a couple of years ago.

If he is so honorable he wanted to protect his kids from evil attacks on them then WTF is he doing attacking someone elses kid?
Really? What did McCain say about Chelsea? Do you have a link to it? I think you are making it up to bolster an argument that has gotten embarrassing.

Actually she is not making that one up. It was 1998, so a bit more than a couple of years ago.... but he did make a joke....

This is not exact, but close "why does Chelsea Clinton look like that? Because Janet Reno is her father"

McCain told this joke at some Rep event. I think it was around the time Chelsea had the extremely frizzy hair and people like Rush were tossing out the poodle comments.

Someone already linked to it earlier in this thread. Beefy responded to it with the correct answer – yeah he’s a jackass, but it has nothing to do with his daughter.
I didn’t know McCain engaged in that. I only remembered Rush Limbaugh. I guess it was more widespread than I knew.

Ooohh... Bad. I actually have less respect for him after that.

So you are calling his kids stupid? His kids aren't young. Hell his oldest kid is around 45. The only one under 18 is Bridget.

Nice to see you continue living in your race baiting fanatasy world. All his kids are hidden because of his "non-white" daughter. I take back what I said. I hope your daughter abandons you when she is old enough to realize what a waste of life you are.

Yeah. Seriously I didn't know. I just have less respect for a person who would do that.

I am not calling anyone stupid, I am pointing out that kids are easily mainpulated by parents. Man are you quick to read into almost everything I say. You really have an ax to grind.

Right, except that all but one of his "kids" are adults. THAT was the point.

It is not reading into it.... you said "His kids may really belive they decided. "
 
Even adult kids can be manipulated.
I think the quote is "easily" manipulated. Is it as easy for your dad to manipulate you today as when you were 7? Was it as easy when you were 16 for him to do it as when you were 7?

No, but it could happen. Even if I were not stupid.

Obviously your dad has manipulated you into believing that you are not stupid. Which he did quite easily because you are ignorant and thus easily manipulated.

You are a fool to think that his kids were all somehow manipulated into believing they made the decisions in their lives. The only one manipulated is you. Obviously you have bought into some moveon.org brainwashing that doesn't allow you to think for yourself.

A parent says, "I am in this campaign, you dont want to get involved in this mess do you."

Kid, (without really thinking about it) "No, I dont."

Kid, (Later when asked) "I did not really want to get involved in that mess."

ROFLMAO.... if you are talking about a 10 year old... maybe that works. But we aren't are we.

Keep digging that hole deeper and deeper. Racist moron.
 
Again what have I done racist?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why is McCain always with some of his kids, but Ive never seen him photographed with his daughter Bridget?

I bet once the nomination is secured with the Republicans he will unveil her.
