Hold on to the mugs. Cindy likes to get the five finger discount.

Yes! A recipe stealing, prescription drug addict.
April 16th, 2008 at 2:36 pm
“Yes! A recipe stealing, prescription drug addict.”
ROTFLMAO!
April 16th, 2008 at 2:58 pm
Lisa, appreciated it. Shout out to Lisa!
I neglected to post earlier that she’s also a husband stealer. Around these parts that’s known as a slut.
Sluts are known to be drug addicts. She fits the description nicely.
April 16th, 2008 at 3:00 pm
If I were married to nasty old man like McCain I would also try to escape reality by munching on pills
:D Can you imagine what he must look like without all the make up caked on? Good Lord!
April 16th, 2008 at 3:01 pm
Yeah, just as horrible as she does will all of her makeup ON.
April 16th, 2008 at 3:04 pm
“I neglected to post earlier that she’s also a husband stealer. Around these parts that’s known as a slut.”
McCain didn’t age very well. The first wife is like dang! He’s looking like Casper the Ghost. Someone put that man in the sun

Again with the telling people what to say & not say. This isn’t your blog. You are not chairman of the board.
On the other thread you took a shot at people with washed up careers; something some of us have seen or been through & don’t appreciate. We don’t think that’s a laughing matter either. Some reacted negatively to your comments & corrected your falsehoods about Kelsey Gramer. But I don’t think anyone told you to not say it. There’s a big diff between the two. Learn it.
April 16th, 2008 at 3:07 pm
She’s not just a “drug addict she’s also a thief. Can we please get the labels right.
April 16th, 2008 at 3:09 pm
Boo hoo. This blog isn’t about you or your likes and dislikes. This blog is about The View.
April 16th, 2008 at 3:10 pm
P.S. to Bossy:
What a narcissist! Did it ever occur to you, whatever your name is, that you are not the only one reading this blog who has been affected with substance abuse or abusers?
April 16th, 2008 at 3:11 pm

Oh wait! I know what will make me feel better.

Now we definately agree on something.

Well said, Carmen.
April 16th, 2008 at 3:25 pm
Sounds like more than one person on this blog needs a pill. But I’m not sharing mine. Na-ah.
April 16th, 2008 at 3:30 pm
Once again, this blog isn’t about you. My comment #25 made no reference to you.
Btw, I agreed with your post #20. See?
April 16th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Back to the issue at hand.
Does anyone think that the Girls will ask about Cindy’s stealing?
April 16th, 2008 at 3:32 pm
#24: “I am so frustrated. I don’t know what I have to do to fit in here. Why can’t I express a differing view, and we can still get along? It seems everyone is teaming up against me…
*sigh*”
I’ve got my hankie out … Violins are playing in the background … sigh
Don’t fret “Abidage”. Your two enablers will shortly chime in and defend your indefensible way of discussing things on this blog. One will claim it’s just those nasty old liberals out to get you; the other will be in deep denial that you are indeed who we all know you are. …. Just like old times.
Thanks!

“You are very smart”
And once again we agree.

Sure enough
April 16th, 2008 at 3:39 pm
Word to the wise: no one on this blog is in denial. If you get my drift…
April 16th, 2008 at 3:44 pm
“Does anyone think that the Girls will ask about Cindy’s stealing?”
I’m sure they will discuss the recipe stealing, but I doubt they will bring up the drug stealing. But, it’s okay as TLB says,”CM helps kids.”
April 16th, 2008 at 3:54 pm
abidage
i know i should not even say this but abidage my dear you aked what might be the issue and for me today when you discovered kelseys “snub” of EH you went to a level 2 defence mechanism of projection i saw an issue. if you had said “you know what i do not know why guest are rude to any host because they agreed to come on the show they should play nice”intead of going fifth grade( as in useing low level defence mehcanisms) and say “there washed up anyway”. just though i point out what people migth be seeing at least what i saw
April 16th, 2008 at 3:57 pm
Erika, the old lady stole drugs? Do tell. I had no idea.
April 16th, 2008 at 3:59 pm
#37 is a sincere question. I’m not being facetious. I want to hear the dirt on that old bag.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:05 pm
she abused the drugs i do not think she stole them. but i do not know. she did an interview about it so they may dicuss it
April 16th, 2008 at 4:08 pm
yes, I think i’ve seen more than one that she did steal scripts or drugs from the very institution she was working for or involved with. which is part of the messiness. should be easy to find online.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:12 pm
That’s incredible.
Well, Republicans do like addicts in the White House. Maybe Cindy and George can share trade secrets.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:15 pm
oh wow sad face thanks for the correction clearly i have not been keeping up.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
Quick search under “pill popping mccain” revealed the following question:
“Is America ready for Cindy McCain, a pill popping, beer promoting, embezzling, adultress for a first “lady”?”
Someone responded with, “What is worst is that people talk about the charity work she did. She stole money from the charity to pay for her addiction & she is loaded with money.”
So STOLE for a charity? Oh no she didn’t!?!
April 16th, 2008 at 4:17 pm
:O Dang!

April 16th, 2008 at 4:20 pm
April 16th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
wow, she stole not only from an institute she was “involved with” but one she FOUNDED:
“She founded the American Voluntary Medical Team in 1988 to provide health care for impoverished children.”(cut & pasted from a CNN article).
See her entry in Wikipedia for all the dirt. I have to laugh at one thing in the entry: stress from the Keating 5 scandal that Mac was involved in was given as one of her excuses. don’t k now if that’s her spin or the wiki writer’s.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
She did it to through a charity for children
April 16th, 2008 at 4:23 pm
Addict is someone with an addictive disorder. If Cindy can’t pop the pills she used to without getting hooked again and if George can’t take a shot of whiskey or cocaine (whatever he is addicted to), then they are both addicts.
Remember, I’m the smart one.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:25 pm
Girlfriend has some real issues.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:26 pm
What kind of smack was she on? Was it hillbilly heroin?
April 16th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
If she makes it to the WH, her cause better be something other than children. She should concentrate on drug addicts who are in prison and didn’t have funds or the resources to keep out of jail.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:27 pm
#54 LOL
April 16th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
Why would some of you say such things about Mrs. McCain. She’s a very lovely lady and I can’t wait to see her on the 21st. Abidage, this is indeed very exciting!
April 16th, 2008 at 4:33 pm
This isn’t a matter of opinion. Recovered addicts will always be addicts.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:35 pm
Abidage, your family will be in my prayers.I’m so happy to hear she’s overcoming her addiction. Thank you for sharing that with us.
April 16th, 2008 at 4:36 pm
if god forbid mac & cindy end up in the WH, at least cindy has copped to her addiction & doesn’t pretend recovery programs aren’t necessary to kick it. GWB is a dry drunk; brags that he didn’t need no program, no sir, all he had to do was use his willpower and bootstraps; he has pussyfooted around the topic all these years, rather than calling it for what it is. i would think his example is pretty bad because it makes people think they don’t need to fess up to their problem, or get help other than those bootstraps. i’m sure GWB would never use the terms addict or recovered addict to describe himself. no, sir.

Mrs. Ford did not receive negative hurtful comments…. and neither should anyone else. IN MY OPINION.

Perhaps old geezers remember.
April 16th, 2008 at 7:09 pm

Thanks Lisa. This thread has cracked me up multiple times today. I’m glad I mentioned the stealing drugs earlier, because it got even more hilarious!
April 16th, 2008 at 7:21 pm
I wonder if the ladies on The View will be able to compete, next Monday with our blog comments. LOL
We sure drumed up some exciting stuff for Mrs. Cain. I hope we have not out-done ourselves and become disappointed with the show… comparing it to our rants and friendly banter. ha ha

YAWN ………………….. We can try for 100… Winnie will never believe it !!!! LOL
My clock at home says 11:11 pm. EST Our comments clock says 4 hours earliar ! What time zone is that? hee hee
April 16th, 2008 at 9:40 pm
Ok my two cents…
I never joke about addiction.. I have a few family members with addiction and its no fun. I divorced my husband for his which nearly bankrupt me. People do the most insane things for drugs or alcohol. Now I do not absolve their behavior because of diagnosis of addiction either. They always have a chance to rehabilitate based on intervention and ramifications. Peeps dont always get a bye on life waiting on their ticket to sober life. Its called accountability. I have the most sincere respect for peeps of family members who are addicted is some respect and the recovering addicts. But the addict who had bad behavior is telling in the behavior in itself. Some can get clean with a respectable mannor and some get clean with a non respectable mannor. Its all in the pudding..
I’m just saying…..
April 16th, 2008 at 9:59 pm
Prophecy is fulfilled!!!
Here I am, better late than never I guess.
I agree Abidage addiction is very serious, and very devastating to the entire family.
all of my best wishes are with your sister,..and your family. I know and understand as I have a niece with a drug addiction.
April 16th, 2008 at 10:02 pm
# 91,
I agree with this too. A much different setting.
April 16th, 2008 at 10:05 pm
and i would make another comment, however it is 11 o clock in my neighborhood, and I really have an early morning tomorrow.
good night all.
April 16th, 2008 at 10:08 pm
Your welcome, and thanks for your best wishes as well.
April 16th, 2008 at 10:11 pm
Yes Cindy is lucky, and hopefully the same will be true for my niece and your sister. My niece has been out of rehab for 6 months and is so far doing real well. So far. It. was her second time in rehab.
What 3 are we on?
April 16th, 2008 at 10:13 pm
We made it to 100.
Yes I’ve read all the comments.
Good Luck Abidage, and good night.
April 16th, 2008 at 10:49 pm
Abidage/jen also has a serious addiction.. close to EH.. changing peeps point a view with a beating of messages into submission with overblogging to the point peeps had enough.. ENOUGH!!!

Can we add music clips to the comments? Does anyone have the theme from “Psycho”?
April 17th, 2008 at 6:20 am
Cindy McCain shouldn’t be applauded for breaking the law. If she were Cindy Johnson from the trailer park her ass would have gone to jail. She’s a criminal who got away with a crime. :O
April 17th, 2008 at 7:06 am
It’s funny that you all are more concerned about hopefully our future President’s wife than Obama’s drug history. OBAMA ADMITTED TO USING COCAINE AND MARIJUANA. THAT SHOULD BE MORE OF AN ISSUE THAN CINDY MCCAIN’S PAST!www.iht.com/articles/2006/10/24/news/dems.php
April 17th, 2008 at 7:08 am
After the shameful performance by ABC during last nights debate and the buzz that Hannity was author of some of the guestions, it is clear why EH is not going to lose her job, no matter how ridiculous she is on air.
Cindy McCain joining “The View” is just same same same. This woman appears brittle and could fracture into a thousand pieces easily. I feel sorry for her, as I don’t think her life has been easy and she has never paid the consequences for her actions. First Lady will put her under a microscope that she may not be able to handle.
April 17th, 2008 at 7:15 am
“Abidage/jen also has a serious addiction.. close to EH.. changing peeps point a view with a beating of messages into submission with overblogging to the point peeps had enough.. ENOUGH!!!”
Perhaps a disorder of some sort…Troll like in it’s love to see it’s posts tally up to 100.
April 17th, 2008 at 7:33 am
What’s wrong with her posting? That’s what the blog is for…TO HAVE A DISCUSSION WITH OTHERS ABOUT THE SHOW! DUHHHH…You all have found a problem with everything she’s done. She’s even tried to joke with some of you and you still trash talking her. I think some of you don’t like having discussions with others with different opinions. Anybody with a different perspective on things are automatically disliked.
April 17th, 2008 at 7:50 am
Hot Damn! It looks like the real Jen is back. So Obama stepped up and admitted his drug use. Cindy got caught and Obama didn’t have children at the time and he didn’t steal from poor children. Big difference.
April 17th, 2008 at 8:08 am
UMMMMMM….HELLO!!!!!!!!! HEY LISA#112–CINDY IS NOT RUNNING FOR THE PRESIDENCY OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! BIG DIFFERENCE!
April 17th, 2008 at 8:20 am
Cindy cheated with McCain when he was married too. This goes against conservative’s moral values. Wonder if EH will ask Cindy if McCain is a good dad?
April 17th, 2008 at 8:24 am
yeah, lisa BIG DIFFERENCE. can’t you tell?
Cindy is a slutty drug addict thief who may become first lady. Obama dabbled in drugs, like most of us, and he may become president.
Get with it Lisa.

“Obama dabbled in drugs, like most of us”—–LIKE MOST OF US??? LMAO! That speaks volumes!
April 17th, 2008 at 8:30 am
Yes, it does. It speaks volumes about slutty drug addict McCain. So many people dabble and this idiot couldn’t handle it. She’s weak I tell ya! Weak!
April 17th, 2008 at 8:39 am
EH said Cindy has done a lot for children. She failed to mention that Cindy stole drugs from her own children’s charity.
April 17th, 2008 at 8:44 am

April 17th, 2008 at 8:50 am
Joy should ask Cindy about McCain’s record on civil and women’s rights. Laura Bush is pro-choice I wonder if Cindy is too.

#120:
“Laura Bush is pro-choice ”
Let’s not get carried away. She might privately be ok with abortions being legal, but there’s no way she’s gone to bat for the cause. All I heard LW do is mutter “no” nervously when someone asked her if she thought Roe should be overturned. I can’t imagine Cindy being more outspoken than that.
Someone mentioned Betty Ford in yesterday’s installment of Watching the Bell Jar. Now Betty Ford did go to bat. She said loud and clear she was pro-Roe. I don’t think she waited to be asked, either. She proclaimed it. Betty was the real deal.
April 17th, 2008 at 9:01 am
Her husband calls her the C word. In public. Boy, oh boy. It would be hard for her to stand up for women’s rights when she’s belittled that way. But, if one spreads their legs to a married man I can understand the lack of respect he has for her.
April 17th, 2008 at 9:01 am
Sorry, that should have been LB, not LW.
By the way: LB in her twenties, pre-involvement with George Bush, was a Eugene McCarthy supporter. So back then she probably was outspoken about women’s reproductive freedom.
April 17th, 2008 at 9:01 am
I’M NOT ABIDAGE but I agree with many of her statements but it doesn’t matter, you can call me whomever, whatever, it doesn’t really matter to me..BUT.to respond to your comment, #19-Lisa…WHAT DOES PASTOR WRIGHT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING? This post and the comments were about Cindy McCain and her past. Hello???????

True.
April 17th, 2008 at 9:54 am
I saw how many comments this had and I thought that has to be a mistake…then I check it out and it looks like the crazies have run amok.
To hear Obama has used drugs in his past doesn’t bug me. It’s in his past. I used pot when I was younger. My husband has used many kinds when he was a kid. You experience, you learn, you grow up. It doesn’t matter to me at all that he experimented with drugs, most people have. What I care when it comes to the candidates is who they are now, what is their position on the issues, what are their plans for the future.
