A husky with a private jet. And a license plate that says "MSBUD."
Wednesday, July 16, 2008
So, you ask, when I go to Kansas City, Wichita or Salina, how do I get there? Doy, loser - I fly my private plane. Obviously, god... how do you get there? It's the only way to get around the state.
Just one of us.
This made me laugh at a Katie Couric joke, maybe first time ever. Couric was being taped in between segments during the New Hampshire primary, and captured in there was her comment about Cindy McCain's freaky blue eyes: "She looks like a husky - those weird blue eyes," she said. "Cindy McCain has the most intense blue eyes . . . They were so intense, I couldn't stop staring at her. She must have thought I was weird."
Also, on Olbermann last night Rachel Maddow revealed that when Cindy McCain stoops low enough to drive, she drives a car with a vanity plate that says "MSBUD". Keep it classy, Cindy.

For a while this year, there were a series of photos that came out, where Cindy McCain looked like the bouffant lady from Mars Attacks. It just kept getting bigger and bigger!
Here's an example:

i'm out of it ... what does "MSBUD" refer to?

Nah, I shoulda clarified. "MSBUD" is her reference to her being heir to a Budweiser distributorship.
And fally, did you see Tim Gunn's take on Cindy hair?
I actually don't really have anything against Cindy McCain. She's just about as much as 'one of us' as Teresa Heinz-Kerry.

Yeah, well. I almost had MRBUD tattooed on ma belly. Almost.

And here I thought she was championing medical marijuana for MS sufferers. Shows how much I know.

Money quote:
"Michelle Obama. Absolutely. She looks so comfortable and relaxed in her style, in her fashion, and she exudes that. She has a presence that gives you confidence in her...Cindy McCain looks like someone has twisted her ponytail into a knot and tried to give her a face-lift."

My husband live in Arizona... he says they didn't have a private plane...
I LOVE HARRY SHEARER!! Thanks for that!! He writes some of the best stuff for the Huffington Post.

Well, I guess it's not technically theirs - it's Cindy's corporate jet that is owned by her company. There are dozens of articles that refer to them using it and the thing about it being the only way to get around in Arizona was from an interview she gave last week.
I'm a Shearer fan too.

Oh, no, that's not what I meant... never mind. I just meant you don't *need* a private plane to get around in AZ. It was a half drunken attempt at making fun of her and well, I'm not funny when I'm stone cold sober, so.... oh, never mind.
;)
