Good for you Cindy!


" Even as Sen. John McCain leads the effort to keep the military gay ban in place, his wife is appearing in a new video criticizing anti-gay laws for what she says are their role in bullying and gay teen suicides.

In a new video from NOH8, a gay-rights campaign started after Proposition 8 passed in California, Cindy McCain takes a direct swipe at the "don't ask, don't tell" law.


"Our political and religious leaders tell LGBT youth that they have no future ... they can't serve our country openly," McCain says.


The video features rapid cut-aways of various celebrities highlighting the disproportionately high rate of attempted suicides among LGBT youth, and blaming anti-gay legislation in part for the phenomenon. McCain's parts in the video are spliced with many others. The script states, in part:


Our political and religious leaders tell LGBT youth that they have no future. They can't get married. They can't donate blood. They can't serve our country openly. They're not even allowed to adopt in certain states. What are these kids supposed to think? They're being shown by the adults in our country that here are no solutions to their problems. What's worse, these laws that legislate discrimination teach bullies that what they're doing is acceptable. Our government treats the LGBT community like second class citizens, why shouldn't they?

McCain's gay-rights activism comes at an inopportune moment for her husband, who is currently leading the effort to keep the military gay ban in place. As the highest-ranking Republican on the Senate Armed Services Committee, Sen. McCain led a filibuster in September of a defense bill that includes a repeal of "don't ask."


"The woman basically accused her husband of sharing the blame for gay kids killing themselves," writes John Aravosis at AmericaBlog.


The New York Times explains how the tea party movement pushed McCain into taking a stance against the repeal:

Trying to share just one might be difficult for them.

He has won re-election - the tea party can do absolutely nothing to him. Even if his age and heath did not make a 2016 run unlikely, 6 years is an enormous amount of time. The only real power he could have is to be what he was when he was most successful - a maverick.

Even if he kowtows to every tea party insanity, they will never like or respect him. But, in spite of overwhelming evidence that he is not the hero they wanted him to be, his former media fans would likely welcome John McCain, the maverick back with open arms. Not to mention, as a maverick in a Democrat Senate, he could be the one who gets credit for crossing the aisle - most especially in the lame duck session - as the House will stop everything after that.

He has a choice - be seen as the failure the tea party casts him as or be seen as a media favored statesman.

On this - he needs to listen to his wife and daughter.

to listen to.

:rofl: :rofl:

runs." And what's with these pictures. This woman is at least 56 years old and a former (?) drug addict. WTF are her wrinkles?

Unless they're divorced, this is all for show and publicity. Who gives a fuck what the McCain family thinks about this or anything else?

did this:

1) It was a slam against our current Government (aka Obama) with intention to cause more friction between the GLBT Community and Obama/Dems

2) $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

3) She is a front. An act. Publicity for her husband or her. Otherwise she would denounce her husband's position openly instead of siding with it off camera.

4) Drug addict, messed up.

5) The only thing that might ring true in her warped mind is the "bullying" part. Does she actually say bullying is BAD or does she just say "they experience bullying".

She is a real piece of work. Love her new look to promote an image. blech*

Someone who does one thing with money involved and then off camera does another is a phony.

WTF?
