Meghan McCain? You included in your article a quote from the endlessly self-absorbed, dumber-than-a-box-of-rocks Meghan McCain? That’s funny.
“this issue had already been broached by left-leaning Salon.com, and further advanced by ABC News. But what do Fox haters care about that?”

FOX News Haters Week In Review
http://homepage.mac.com/mkoldys/blog/ilc270329781.html
[...] News, Matt Drudge and their minions like Bill O’Reilly are trying to make political points by criticizing Obama’s nominee for the US Surgeon General post, Dr. Regina Benjamin. Sadly, Julie Deardorff of the Chicago Tribune [...]
I agree that the position of surgeon general is partly symbolic and that an overweight individual might not be the best choice for that role. But the question that becomes apparent after watching this clip is Why is Fox News putting this guy, of all people, to speak on this issue? Clearly they’re not looking to initiate or propagate healthy debate. A more reputable guest would have been allowed to opine if that were the case. Instead, they put this meathead, Carolchyk, who doesn’t even make any attempts to veil his ignorance, in front of a camera. Is this just an attempt to slander the president’s administration under the guise of a blockhead making fun of a fat person? Ummm, you think? But Neil-whatever his name is- objects, so Fox isn’t in the wrong here. It’s their guest who blindsided them with his ridiculous statements (including his claim of being an eexpert’). Carolchyk is a jackass. Neil ??? is a jackass. And most of all, since the two aforementioned individuals may just be acting, anyone who watches this clip and all the others like it without being able to see its actual intention, is a jackass. Lots of jackasses-nothing new.
