A Little Bit of Fish Oil Could Go A Long Way For Meghan McCain
I received three video clips from a friend of mine yesterday, one showcasing Meghan McCain’s appearance on the talk show “The View.” At first, I could not remember exactly who she was, but then it dawned on me.
It dawned on me that her father is Senator John McCain, recent Republican candidate for president. As his daughter, she is convinced that she is valuable to the future of the party. There are certainly many differing opinions on this, so her appearance on the “The View” was an opportunity to promote her politics, which include something she calls “moderate republicanism.” I have to say that I don’t understand the concept at all.
Ms. McCain got into a verbal tussle with the ultra-conservative Ann Coulter, the upshot of which involved McCain telling Coulter that she could basically put her political message out to pasture. (And I am cleaning up the language and tone a bit here.) Coulter held her own and was joined in solidarity against McCain by Laura Ingraham, a talk show host. The battle got heated, and McCain accused Ingraham of calling her “plus-sized,” which is personally insulting to McCain, but I don’t see where it fits in politically.
I have heard Laura Ingraham speak before, and it’s my belief that the insult she hurled at McCain served two purposes. Ingraham wanted everyone to know that she backs up Coulter’s political views, and she also wanted to try to discredit McCain by calling her fat. After all the dust settled, my view is that Coulter and Ingraham came off better than McCain — they just seemed smarter and more humorous.
If we are judging in terms of the size of the ladies on “The View” McCain is quite similar to Joy Behar, Sherrie no-one-can-remember-her-last-name, and Whoppi Goldberg. I’m not saying that as praise. Jay Leno had called Joy Behar “fat” on his show a little while back, along with a few other negative comments. McCain, on “The View” was not shy about telling everyone within hearing range that they could kiss her fat a#@ — as Tyra Banks did when some unflattering shots of her appeared in the media.
It’s funny, but I don’t seem to recall Meghan McCain during the fall campaign, and now she is fighting for the soul of the Republican Party. Oh, and she has a blog. And she seems to have Daddio’s temper, too.
If she wants to run for her father’s seat in Arizona anytime soon, I suggest that she look into taking some fish oil on a daily basis.
My suggestion that Ms. McCain take fish oil has to do with recent behavioral studies that show fish oil can be very beneficial for the mind, with some studies pinpointing that fish oil can be helpful in decreasing occurrences of anger or violence in those that take the supplement.
I recall a couple of British studies that showed that “hooliganism” (a lovely British term) rates among young adults dropped considerably, when fish oil was added to their diet.
Tying this in with Ms. McCain, I do believe that she might have refrained from being so quick on the trigger if she had been on a regimen of Dr. Bill’s Powerhouse Omega Formula. It’s quite possible that the omega-3 fatty acids contained in Dr. Bill’s Formula might have helped her hold her temper. One of the benefits of taking pharmaceutical-grade fish oil is having a clearer mind and the heightened ability to focus one’s thoughts. It’s one of the reasons I take it myself.
One thing I must add: I don’t believe it is a good idea to call oneself “young, fat, and proud of it”, whether you are Meghan McCain or Tyra Banks. I would be willing to bet good money that after proclaiming on national television that their critics could kiss their fat a%$ they went on a diet. And I think that’s part of the problem.
If they just followed my advice: good food, moderate consistent exercise, proper rest, and a daily dose of pharmaceutical grade fish oil, things might go a little better for them. And their behind wouldn’t be on the frontburner.
