Preach on

It's about time someone brought up McCain's lack of character, especially with regard to his treatment of women:

"Well, I don't know a lot about John McCain's family history, I do know, however, that as recently as last week I think it was, the Senator made a comment in South Dakota regarding his wife entering some Buffalo Chips contest which is this topless deal and if she were to enter she would probably win it and my personal opinion and based on my understanding of the Christian faith, that's not not, N-O-T, not the type of expression that a presidential candidate, or anyone for that matter who is a follower of the Christian faith, ought to make," said the Rev. Kirbyjon Caldwell. "I don't know if that is a perfect case in point, but it surely does help to juxtapose the DNA of Senator Obama, if you would, versus the DNA of Senator McCain."

The Rev. Caldwell then goes on to refer to McCain's documented history of adultery. I think leaving your crippled wife for a younger heiress does say a little something about your character.

Meghan McCain's new book about her father's life

This is an interesting fact about the book:

Cindy McCain, along with Meghan's siblings Jack, Jimmy and Bridget, are described fondly in the book — but the children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned.

We wouldn't want any children to know that daddy likes to run around on crippled mommy with a younger blonde, now would we?

More nonsense from Michael Crowley

His new post about the Edwards affair includes this statement:

P.S. The coming wave of debate about the relevance of a candidate's extramarital affairs may be an unwelcome development for the McCain team (although the Iseman allegations were of course denied and never proven).

Putting the Iseman allegations aside, John McCain clearly cheated on his first wife numerous times, most notably with his current wife.
