(Newser) – John McCain isn’t a fan of his daughter’s new bosses. Taking a job at MSNBC, Meghan “went over to the Dark Side, I guess,” he told Don Imus on the Fox Business Network. Still, “I am very proud of her,” he added. “She's feisty. Being over there she is going to have to have quite a bit of that,” he noted. “I'm sure she will fight for the things she and I believe in over there and I wish her every success." The Huffington Post has video.

John McCain sold his principles and his soul to Darth Vader and became a Tea Party knuckle dragger in order to defeat challenger nutbag JD Hayworth in the 2010 Arizona GOP Senate primary. Welcome to the dark side John..........you can check out any time you like but you can never leave.

Somebody needs to point out to John McCain that in Star Wars the dark side of the force was the side that had all the military spending on death stars and imperial storm troopers.
