Imagine if Obama had suggested Michelle participate in a topless "beauty pageant"?

Honestly?

This should be an ad.

McCain's suggesting his wife be in that pageant. And then footage of the actual pageant.

Someone please photoshop Cindy's face into a Buffalo Chip gal poster or something PLEASE.

Family values?

1. We all know the bar is set lower for McCain
It's gettting so obvious that it's lower for him that only a fool couldn't see it.

2. One big difference. Michelle >>>>> Cindy.
I'd gouge my eyes out if Cindy McCain took her top off.

4. It's nothing until the media decides to pick it up and examine it--
but they're propping up and protecting McSonuvabitch, so they won't. If Obama had said this, you know what would happen: Simultaneous shrieks from the GOP and the media about his "family values", about his attitude toward his wife and all women, and much worse.

6. Not to mention what Michelle might do to him.
(and rightfully so). No woman should put up with the kind of disrespect McCain shows for his wife - I'm beginning to feel sorry for Cindy.

7. The right-wing would throw a fit
If Obama said something like that, it would be all over the news with pundits saying how wrong he was.

10. Barack shows his wife the respect that every woman deserves.
A pity McCain cannot do likewise.

12. Better yet: Imagine Ronald Reagan saying that with Nancy on stage!
He is, after all the patron saint of greed.

15. Cindy loved the joke: She'd probably like your VHS box, too!
And Gramps can't even complain about it, since the whole thing was his brilliant idea.
