John McCain’s Hypocrisy Regarding Women

Stephanie Cutter on John McCain’s hypocrisy on women.

“I have never heard such a circular argument in my life,” said Cutter. “This is a completely fabricated controversy and I have a hard time believing women are offended by this. People use this saying all the time. I have to wonder why John McCain would want to raise something like this. And maybe [former Massachusetts Gov.] Jane Swift [who appeared earlier on MSNBC] doesn’t know his record but I wonder where her outrage was when John McCain said he was going to beat Hillary Clinton like a drum. Or participated in an event where one of his participants called Hillary Clinton a bitch. Those are direct comments targeted at somebody’s gender. And I didn’t hear any outrage then… They are having a false offense on putting lipstick on a pig, when John McCain doesn’t even stand for equal pay for women, doesn’t stand for children’s health insurance, thinks the economy is just going fine when millions of children are going without health care. I mean where is the offense at that?”
