Meghan McCain flip-flops on paid family leave

(Editor’s Note:  This is most-definitely not a story on “The View,” the fodder of erstwhile media reporter for TheShill, Joe Concha.  This is a story on a political personality flip-flopping on her policy view because suddenly, the opposing position benefits her.  In its six-plus months of existence, NatZero is proud of the fact that we have never covered a daytime chat show as a news event, let along given it daily coverage–like someone named Oey-Jay Oncha-Kay did when he had a regular gig.)

Daytime talkshow host Meghan McCain, a newly-minted mother of a daughter whom she named Liberty Sage (a type of name right-wing sociopathic “patriots” are wont to use, like Justice, Freedom and Bristol), has done a 180-turn on her position of paid family leave, ABC News reports.

The daughter of long-time senator, the late John McCain, Meghan McCain has made a career of being the token aggrieved self-proclaimed conservative on television programs.  She would often spout the Party Line of Republicans espousing self-reliance and limited regulations on companies to provide for the well-being and financial security of employees.

But like all conservatives, that opinion quickly changes when the regulations positively impacts them.  Like Fox News personalities Megyn Kelly and Kristen Nichole before her, McCain is now a fan of family and maternity leave.

“Motherhood’s insane,” McCain said, after explaining that she experienced postpartum preeclampsia after giving birth. “After I gave birth, I was like, ‘Women do this. This is what women do. We give birth like this.'”

McCain said that she recovered from the severe birth complication with the help of her husband and mother-in-law, who were able to help with her care and the care of her newborn.

“It really, really kicked my butt,” she said. “I was planning on coming back to the show for the election in six weeks after I gave birth and I was physically unable to. … As I thought about it, the more angry I got that there weren’t women in the rest of America that had the same kind of luxury that I had working here at ‘The View.'”

So once again, a conservative changes her opinion only when it impacts her, further demonstrating that Republicans are incapable of empathy, but totally capable of supporting self-serving policy.
