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.

She’s the daughter of Senator John McCain, and as such, considers herself fairly important to the future of the Republican Party. Others disagree, and her appearance on “The View” was used to promote her political point of view, which is “moderate republicanism” (whatever THAT means).

McCain got into a scrum with Ann Coulter, basically telling her where she could put her message (where the moon don’t shine). Coulter parried back, and then Laura Ingraham, a talk radio host, joined in the battle, on the side of Coulter. Insults were hurled, and McCain said Ingraham called her “plus sized” (a euphemism, if ever I heard one).

Now I’ve listened to Ingraham before, and I think she was trying to score two points with one shot, with the insult of McCain. I think she meant McCain’s criticism of Coulter was off the mark, and she meant that McCain was a big fat a$$ (as in donkey.) But I could be wrong, and either way, after watching the video of “The View,” I’m more inclined to think that Ingraham and Coulter came off as brighter, wittier, and more fun.

McCain looked as though she fit right in with Joy Behar, Sherrie Whoever, and Whoopie (and that ain’t a good thing). Jay Leno had already called the sneering Behar “fat,” among other things, on his show a few weeks back. McCain, with her own sneer and sense of entitlement, told all who could hear that they could kiss her fat a$$ (just like Tyra Banks, who was starting to look like Oprah Jr.).

Looking back at her father’s campaign last fall, I have to say that I don’t remember Meghan McCain at all. But it now seems that she believes that the successful future of the Republican Party is her responsibility. Take a look at her blog and you’ll see what I mean. And after viewing the clip from “The View” we can safely say that she is like her father in at least one way: her temper.

If she is thinking of running for her father’s seat in Arizona anytime in the near future, I would strongly advise her to stock up on some fish oil.

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.

There have been a few studies in Britain that showed that young adults who were prone to “hooliganism” and were given fish oil showed a marked improvement in the reduction of their destructive behavior.

What I am suggesting is that maybe the young Miss McCain might not have been so quick to drop the hammer and insults, had she been taking Dr. Bill’s Powerhouse Omega Formula. It’s just possible that the omega-3 fatty acids might have facilitated a better choice of response. Clearer, more precise thought processes…are just one of the many benefits enjoyed by those who take pharmaceutical grade fish oil, on a daily basis. That’s one reason why I do, 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.
