Meghan McCain 'Bratty' at DC Dinner

Political daughter brings extra guest

Share

(Newser) – Woulda-been first daughter Meghan McCain didn't exactly get the royal treatment she was expecting at Saturday's White House Correspondents dinner. She showed up to the exclusive event with two tickets and a party of three, prompting a security guard to question her. "Doesn't he even know who the fuck I am?" she responded, a source told the Daily News. "Meghan got bratty and nastily told him, ‘We’ll just stand here then,’ like an insolent child," the source says.

The evening didn't get better from there. McCain, who blogs for the Daily Beast, "was complaining about everything from the air-conditioning to the wait,” the source said. Wanda Sykes' roast, which included a line about Cindy McCain buying her hubby a helicopter, also got the thumbs-down. "I didn’t like the joke about my mom," Meghan said. "It really wasn’t in good taste.”

Those tickets were harder to get than gold dust and Meghan blatantly only had two and thought she didn’t have to follow the same rules as everyone else. - Inside source

Megham, whatever the hell you're doing. give it up. Your dad lost the election, which means that American voters-- at least those with brains-- rejected the thought of placing John McCain and his clan in the White House. Your reported snotty behavior, if true, only serves to demonstrate that the voters were correct in their judgement. Reply

Almost 50% of the country voted with McCain. You must be very smart indeed.
