Think Progress is all over Senator John McCain today in his apparent non-defense of his daughter in the Meghan McCain vs Laura Ingraham “Kiss My Fat Ass” FLAP that I covered yesterday.

But, is it really a non-defense or simply disgust that his daughter is being USED by the LEFT as a TOOL?

Look at the Twitter interview of McCain and ABC’s George Stephanopoulos:

I am the father of three daughters and believe me that Senator McCain is disgusted with Meghan. He is not defending Laura Ingraham to curry favor with the right wing.

How stupid.

As I twittered yesterday, Meghan should smart up and stop being used as a Left-Wing tool. She might also try a REAL JOB instead of writing for Far Lefty Tina Brown’s Daily Beast.

Can’t her mom, Cindy McCain, get he some type of job in the Beer company?

Flap loves these cat fights particularly when the left-wing fools at The View WEIGH IN with a MORON like Meghan McCain.

Here is Laura Ingraham’s response:

Both have their points about calling/ridiculing a woman as FAT. But, it is also a stretch (a very large one) to consider Meghan McCain a Republican pundit.

Political Cartoon by Michael Ramirez

Jim Geraghty at National Review OWNS the Obama statements with an expiration date theme. But, this morning’s edition belongs to Bob Krumm.

The Obama statement: “Yesterday, Jim, the head of Caterpillar, said that if Congress passes our plan, this company will be able to rehire some of the folks who were just laid off.”

Obama: Caterpillar to rehire if stimulus passes

The “stimulus” passed, so here’s the latest news from Caterpillar:

Caterpillar to lay of 2,454 workers in 3 states

Oops is right.

But as Geraghty points out, it was not quite what the head of Caterpillar was saying at the time – it was what Obama wanted to hear and spin.

This is what the latest NPR poll says.

But when asked whether they’d vote for the Republican or Democratic congressional candidate if the 2010 elections were held today, the result was a tie: 42-42.

“There’s concern about the spending plans and other paths that Obama and Democrats in Congress are taking, so I think you’re seeing a little bit more move toward a balance,” Bolger said. “People still want the president to succeed. He’s got a 59 percent approval rating. He has a lot of intensity, particularly from his base. But that doesn’t mean that people want one side to have a blank check.”

Obviously, the American public is not happy with the Democrat’s dominance. But, the poll points out the dominance of the Democrats on a number of issues.

There is some hope for the GOP – but still a long way to come back.

Well, if the LEFT can do it so can the RIGHT.

Left Wing blogger Ben Smith over at Politico is whining because George Stephanopoulos over at ABC is interviewing Senator John McCain on Twitter.

Anyone else getting a little sick of Twitter-as-intriguing-and-shiny-new-toy?

Guess Smith prefers JournoList where he obtains his “talking points.”

And, which is NOT on a public timeline.
