Laura Ingraham Labels Meghan McCain 'Plus-Sized' (Audio)
Meghan McCain has been making lots of enemies within the Republican Party. And Laura Ingraham certainly counts as one of them.
McCain, the 24-year-old daughter of former presidential candidate John McCain, grabbed headlines this week for taking on conservative author Ann Coulter, who McCain described as "offensive."
She kept up the attacks in a discussion with Rachel Maddow, when she intimated that Coulter’s comments make it difficult for the Republicans to court younger voters.
Well, none of this pleases radio host Laura Ingraham, who yesterday employed a Valley-girl voice to describe the 24-year-old McCain as "plus-sized." Here’s the transcript, via Think Progress:
"OK, Meghan. Do you think that anyone would be talking to you if you weren’t kind of cute and you weren’t the daughter of John McCain? Or do you just think that they would just think that you were just another Valley girl gone awry?
…
OK, I was really hoping that I was going to get that role in the Real World, but then I realized that, well, they don’t like plus-sized models. They only like the women who look a certain way." C’mon, Ingraham! McCain’s simply saying what she thinks about the party — no need to take on her weight, which, we think, is perfectly lovely. Now, ladies, can you kiss and make up?
