People please...

Sure John McCain called his second wife a "Cunt"*. But Michael Scherer and the rest of the fawning McCainiac press corps will tell you it's just evidence of what a stand-up guy McCain is.

McCain's Wife (formerly known as Cindy McCain, she legally changed it this February to "McCain's Wife") has a pet name for him, "Maverick". Pretty unique, eh? It's a new one, hope you haven't heard of it. The Press Corps is all gaga over it.

But McCain too has a nickname for Cindy McCain's Wife and it's adorable. "Cunt".

The man's a born romantic. Only John McCain is so capable of not objectifying women that he has the courage to be bold in using Pet Names to teach us about intolerance, by using it as a sword to cut through the bullshit. He really is a 'Maverick'.


*Little known fact, he called his First Wife "Chester Chestless".
