wreckless sociopath coming to town

roberta It’s always so cute when the elderly mow down innocent bystanders, don’t you think? Mark the date — August 25th — and make sure that your loved ones are nowhere near Newport. Roberta McCain kicks off two days of GOP fundraising with a private $10,000-a-head reception to be held at the New York Yacht Club. Her sorry carcass will then be dragged around to lesser venues where smaller checks may be written. This narcissistic old gargoyle is famous for what is euphemistically referred to as her ‘lead foot’. This includes a citation only a few years ago for going 112 miles-per-hour, but according to The Washington Post, she has been pulled over more recently,

Nothing, not even skyrocketing gas prices, seems to slow down Roberta McCain, the indefatigable 96-year-old mother of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and a notorious lead-foot behind the wheel. She’s still speeding around like a NASCAR driver on the last lap.

Mrs. McCain told us at a recent cocktail party that she got a $40 speeding ticket in Chevy Chase a few weeks ago. “Don’t speed up there,” she warned with a wry smile.

Her latest citation is about the umpteenth she’s received. “I know she has gotten a bunch of speeding tickets,” McCain campaign spokesman Brian Rogers acknowledges.

Isn’t that just a hoot? If we were talking about an 18-year-old, do you think we would be using words like ‘wry’ and ‘indefatigable’?

  2. no, i don’t think they would use the words “wry” and “indefatigable”. Because if it was an 18 y.o., it wouldn’t be funny.

  3. Roberta is a sweetheart! That’s pretty pathetic to pick her like that

    The next time you are driving down the highway and someone passes you going 112mph, see if the first thing that pops into your mind is “What a sweetheart.”
