So, I’m a mother to two children, my seven year old son and my one year old daughter. We’re currently in that weird cycle of sleep deprivation because school is out/toddlers don’t sleep 😂 Last night,

May the Domenech-McCain child grow up to be a radical gay socialist.

And how exactly are you and Joy similar Meghan?  Joy grew up working class.  You grew up privileged to the nth degree.  Joy is a self-made woman.  You have coasted by on your family's money and name.

Meghan says conservative men have better family values.  Fuck her. 

Yep, fuck her and the swaybacked nag she rode up on.

Now that she's got me riled at 4:30 am I will say what I see in that wedding photo. Her paws are at least 3.5 inches wide and likely are 4 inches. The true width of her waist is hidden behind the corner of the chair her father, her father is sitting in but you can tell, proportionately, that her body ends underneath her sleeve and not at the edge of the chair. Four of her paws will fit across her waist, her midriff. 4 × 4 = 16, double that and her waist is 32 inches before adding in her depth from front to back. Plus, we haven't added The Girls to the equation. Let us review the measurement of a size 12 waist: it is not 32 inches and The Girls would not fit inside a size 12 bust measurement. The photo is 2 years old, she got bigger after that and was claiming a size 12 as recently as eight months ago. 

This is not fat shaming, this is rebutting someone who boldly lies in public and expects people to eat it up, yum, and ask for more. I refuse. It bugs because of the constant claims that she's never had body issues because she's a rootin' tootin' hardass.

Absolutely fuck her! 

She loves to generalize. She dated losers in west Hollywood while she lived her party girl/trust fund baby lifestyle. And now wants to generalize about men she knows nothing about. Fuck her!

I'm really surprised that quote didn't get more attention.  I can think of quite a few conservatives that aren't good family men.  That was such a shitty thing for her to say.  And of course she says it on Shapiro's show where nobody will hear it. Let her say that on the View and see what happens.

What's ridiculous is that Meghan thinks, because she found that the most conservative man she'd ever met was ideal for her (which makes sense, as black and white as she sees the world - what took her so long to figure that out?), that everyone looking for a husband should choose someone conservative, because they have better family values, according to her. 

Well, first of all, does she realize how nonsensical it sounds to imply that men who aren't conservative don't have family values?  Second, with her all politics, all the time attitude, and as combative as she is about politics, I'm not surprised the less conservative men she dated weren't interested marrying her.

Meghan said last week that she really doesn't like anybody (when she was talking to Gretta Monahan).  She proves it when she says in the article that she "hopes every woman has the kind of husband I have".

ME-Gun has said that grief and miscarriage are "taboo subjects"  that nobody talks about.  I don't know where she gets this.  Maybe she thinks The View needs to give her a platform to talk about these topics, and they have not done so, so she says they're taboo.

I know MM's trying to make these (grief and miscarriage) a thing solely related to her faux-brave stance--when they've been around for years in print and media.

I have talked online with strangers and my book club friends, and family about these topics, read many books, and seen other--better spoken, credible, stronger women and men-- talk about these issues in the media for years.  

Just because she never noticed before, it's news to her--like almost everything else in the real world.

STFU, MM.

And this has nothing to do with politics.  Family values = honesty, integrity, loyalty, partnership, dependability, community, generosity, sharing...and so much more.  Conservative or unorthodox--most humans have "family values," and not in the sense of a buzzword phrase.

Does she not respect the "values" of those many she calls friends?

Exactly.  Doesn't she realize she's insulting all her democratic/liberal friends?

Speaking of friends, Clay Aiken is appearing again this year at Politicon at the end of the month.  It's kind of like Comic-Con but with politics.  Clay's appeared every year since it started.  I think this is their third year (or maybe fourth).  Meghan must be fuming that she's never been invited to attend.  It's a huge deal.  Besides Clay, this year's agenda includes, among others, Al Franken, James Comey, James Carville, Sean Hannity, Randy Rainbow, Ann Coulter, Donna Brazile, Rience Priebus, David Pakman, Sarah H. Sanders, Niccole Wallace, and......and....wait for it....Ana Navarro!  So Ana and Clay will be there but not Meghan.  I have a feeling someone's going to be feeling very sorry for herself that weekend. 😁

From the list you posted Gemma people who have worked in politics or ran for office was invited. What has Meghan done other than be born to a politician?  Which in her mind makes her qualified.  Which by her logic means she is qualified to be a beer distributor too.

It's shot in LA and I'm sure Meghan wants to be there for her asshole husband.  They can fly to Vegas after the show smoke cigars play poker and drink whiskey....job what job? Not that I'm complaining friday with Ana and no Meghan win,win.

I do now have to decide if I'll watch Bill Maher RT, and listen to above mentioned asshole husband.

This just popped into my head - As you said, Meghan does not like John Heilemann.  I don't know if they've ever met, or if so, if she's been around him since Game Change came out, but if not, maybe she went to L.A. to give him a piece of her mind.

What was the tweet to Jon Cryer about? 

Megun accused Elizabeth Warren of being a liar when she said she was fired from a teaching job when 6 mos pregnant. (At the time contracts were automatically cancelled when teachers looked like they were 5 mos pregnant). Jon Cryer simply asked MM if she could remember things exactly from 48 years ago.  He could have said, "I know you weren't born yet, but can you remember exactly how things happened 48 years ago?" 

MM told Jon to not to disagree with her on Twitter or she would stop watching his shows/movies.

OMG. Why is anyone asking her to speak about grief?  She isn't moving on. She is wallowing and using her grief to keep herself relevant.  And she is so fucking wrong about lack of resources for dealing with grief. Books have been written about. Most hospitals offer grief counseling. Many therapists have grief counseling.  And there is conversations all the time about grief. They are however done privately or when appropriate.  My husband died seven years ago and after he died I talked about him to my family and friends. I did not bring up his death to everyone I met.  I didn't go to the grocery store and buy milk and tell the cashier my dead husband used to drink milk.

She really is wallowing in it. Grief is not taboo as she says. Unfortunately Everyone will experience it, it's very common.  When my mother died I grieved I read books about losing your parents, I spoke with my siblings, and friends,   reminisced about my wonderful mother. I still miss her but we move on that's life. My sister lost her teenage son to suicide and that was more than she could handle she went into therapy and still has days that are hard. But she has to get on with things because,  that is life. Meghan capitalizing on her father's death is bizarre.

Tickets are $100-250. Dinner is included. It is not a fundraiser for the hospice agency or whatever it is. There are no provisions for those who wish to attend but can't afford a ticket, unless/until a sponsor donates tickets. 

So if you're grieving on a fixed income go ahead and cross this off your calendar.

As I said before, it is absurd that an organization that can choose to hire an expert on grief, instead hires Meghan. There are therapists who have counseled people going through grief, there are experts who have written books. Meghan's "expertise" is that her father died.  She  is constantly tweeting TO her dad. That is not a good coping strategy, that is just a public display, asking for attention. She's giving a speech about grief, based on her experience being "stuck" in one stage of grief. That's not helpful to anybody. 

The best way to honor her father would be to find a cause that was important to him, and do some actual good in the world.

I don't understand how MM can say grief is taboo.  It is true that some people might not know how to react/support a friend when he/she/they suffer a loss but I don't think that's taboo. I think that is just discomfort.

And for her to say there are no resources - Uh, I don't think she's right.  When my mother died last year we were offered grief support for a year (without cost) from her hospice care plus our church also offered grief support.  Same thing when my father died this year.  We, as a family, also had "the ear" of friends and other family to talk, share, laugh, and cry about them.  

It seems to me as you said, Coffeewinewater, MM is wallowing in grief.

My father died from the same cancer in 2011. As awful as it sounds, I was praying for his death before the end because of his suffering. No, I didn't want him to die, but I didn't want him to live that way. I remember a coworker told me that was the most loving prayer I could say because I felt so guilty for praying for his death.  Before this happened my dad never met a stranger, he would talk to anyone about anything. He lost his ability to speak and that was so hard to see. He would also sometimes walk out to his fishing boat but knew he would never be able to go fishing again. He looked "lost" (that's the best way I can describe it).   I know now he is no longer in pain.

After he died I went to GriefShare and it did help  (I'm a believer but not overly religious).  There was a woman there whose husband had died. We did help each other because she was able to see what her daughter went through while talking to me and she helped me understand what my mom went through. But of course Meggie wouldn't/couldn't be that self-aware because she is the only person to ever have lost a loved one.  Meggie needs to move on. She is not destigmatizing grief, she is  wallowing in grief. There is a difference.

She’s milking this grief thing for all it’s worth. She needs to stfu about this. She’s doing more harm than good. And she’s also needs to stop saying that miscarriages and the death are taboo subjects. She’s only saying that to make herself look extra special, superior and having the balls for taking on such subjects. Gimme a break

Yep that’s pretty much the truth. At the live tapings I’ve been at, they pretty much ignore her. 

And it is not because she is a Republican, but because she is an annoying narcissist who behaves like an entitled and tempestuous toddler when she doesn't get her way.

She may think talking about grief and miscarriages is taboo because people don't want to talk about her grief because she wants to do all the talking and not listen to others' experiences.  As mentioned above, there are other resources and some are free.  A therapist and listening to others' coping mechanisms would be more helpful than her going on a lecture tour.  And how old is that promotional photo? - 10 years?
