fuck you john mccain

Feministing does this "feminist friday fuck you" and last friday it was a fuck you to john mccain. and today, albeit it's sunday i say, 'fuck you!' mr! there's an article in the NewYorkTimes this weekend that i was led to from, surprisingly, Perezhilton. supposedly mccain needs to show his conservative side to ensure that his republicans don't see him as some progressive leader, but continually so an ethically regressive leader:

"Mr. McCain, who with his wife, Cindy, has an adopted daughter, said flatly that he opposed allowing gay couples to adopt. “I think that we’ve proven that both parents are important in the success of a family so, no, I don’t believe in gay adoption,” he said."

first off, saying "both parents" doesn't mean necessarily "mom and dad". so buck up on your specific speaking points asshole. and second, "both parents are important in the success of a family" flat out states that single-parent households align with adoptions by gay parents and are therefore bad in his books. and what's "gay adoption". is that adopting gay children? these conservative fellas don't really know how to say very much very well.

bah! i'm so angry.
