Meghan McCain's Breasts Exposed on Twitter

Almost first daughter, Meghan McCain, threatened to stop sharing her private moments on Twitter after a picture she posted of herself in a cleavage-revealing scoop neck top had conservative followers calling her a slut!

The 24-year-old Daily Beast blogger and moderate Republican, who sports a tattoo and is not afraid to share her opinions or evidently, her downtime attire, let her ire rip after an innocent enough tweet about her evening plans stirred up some heat with followers. "I can't even tell you how hurt I am," McCain tweeted.

The tweetroversy started as McCain was planning on spending the night reading an Andy Warhol biography and ordering take-out (according to her Tweets).

Perhaps her political judgment was having some downtime too when she posted a photo of herself wearing a casual tank revealed much of what lies beneath (read: her breasts!). Probably not the shrewdest idea when you've got 60,000 followers in red and blue states.

McCain quickly summoned all that political savvy she picked up on the presidential campaign trail with dad, Republican U.S. Sen. John McCain. She threatened to close her Twitter account writing, "What was fun now seems like a vessel for harassment."

And she defended her attire. "When I am alone in my apartment I wear tank tops and sweat pants. I had no idea that makes me a slut." It doesn't, but maybe when we Tweet to such a wide audience we need to analyze our base more carefully!

Still, her swift, firm response deserves a cheer from both sides of the political aisle. And she doesn't just stick up for herself. Her Daily Beast column this week defended Jessica Simpson after a cruel parody of her weight on Fox NFL Sunday. "Stop the cheap shots," she wrote.



By day's end, McCain was thanking supporters for their words of encouragement and offering to "sleep on" her decision to quit Twitter.

I couldn't agree more... if she was Pamela Anderson, no one would've has said a word, and maybe they would've said it was one of Pam's more conservative outfits! She wasn't appearing on a cover shoot for CONSERVATIVE TIMES: the life of a daughter of a political conservative...

I can wear whatever I want or need to when I create my art, but she isn't doing anything but posing with a book! Omygosh -- hello, the camera setting on black and white makes her cleavage stand out more. That's no reason to insult her entire character online, and this really makes everyone who said anything look foolish and judgmental.

My advice to you Meghan, it to learn how to say: "F-CK YOU!" and live your own life. People will always be this way, no amount of you going out of your way to be politically correct will change them, as they will always find something or someone else to criticize, and no amount of you whining about it will stop them, as they thrive off of DRAMA. Don't give them what they want!

All through my teenage years I was tormented for having a flat chest. All my friends began growing boobs and received all the attention from the guys, while I was just teased and nicknamed “surf board”. My mum always told me to ignore it; I was just a late bloomer. By my 17 birthday I had had enough. I begged my parents to let me get breast implants, to which they refused. Eventually my mum realised how much this issue was damaging my self esteem and let me begin using Max Bust ( Http://cli.gs/MaxBust ), after carefully researching it online. Within 3 months I had the beginnings of a bust for the first time ever! My school prom came around and everyone was gob smacked when I arrived in a low cut dress, and newly acquired cleavage! Cleavage!!! Something I had only ever dreamed of!

After having two children my breasts had become a sorry sight, they were deflated, stretched and saggy. This greatly affected my self esteem and it got to the point where I would wear a bra at all times, even during intimate time with my husband. Surgery just wasn’t an option for me, it was too pricey and I’m terrified of the thought of going under the knife. I came across the advertising Max Bust Website ( Http://favstore.net/maxbust/?id=page01 ) and thought I’d give it a go. After 5 months of taking it the change in the appearance of my breasts is incredible. While they haven’t greatly increased in size, they have regained the lost vitality. They’re back to being supple and rounded, rather than droopy and flat. I can’t believe that something non-surgical could produce such pleasing results. My confidence is back and I’m back to wearing halter tops with no bra! Unbelievable!

Then why does America idolize Paris Hilton types? It is a double standard. Any dumb loose girl especially blondes. Megan is immature and this has to do with self image. It was a thought out picture and a conscious choice to leak it to the world as she knew it would be picked up by the media.

She could take lessons about intelligence from VP Cheney's daughter. Better to be known for brains than boobs.

Why is it that so many women (not all, thank god) just have to flaunt their titties somehow at some point? This was an obvious posed picture meant to "tit"tillate or else Meghan is totally naive. One would think young women such as Meghan who had access to the best education and the best of everything, would not be compelled to showcase her tits. I'll bet she'll get a lot of dates now, but her callers might not be the kind she's looking for.

Why? You ask, why? Because they're there. Most men and more and more women appreciate a fine rack accompanied by that 'come hither' look. As far as her political opinions; who really cares what a woman's opinion is? Just spread your legs and smother me with those tats. Please, bring cab fare.

I agree. If you are having to crane your head down to get your face i the shot, then your aiming the camera wrong. if i were taking a picture of myself with a book, I would be holding the book by my face, and chances are, nothing below my collarbone would be in the pic. I'm not a prude, nor do boobs offend me, but I see these kind of pictures on facebook all the time..head craned down at a completely awkward angle, clearly trying to get face and breasts in same shot...like "oh, I didn't realize my boobs were in the shot?" Give me a break.

Why do we listen or give attention to a spoiled privileged child of a failed politician.

Meghan Mccain is not relevant in the mainstream media, isnt it bad enough that people spend time paying attention to the loser Kardashians?

There are many more important issues to be concerned with in this country.

I'm sure michelle obama would have gotten nothing but compliments for the same picture. It's just so obvious why the liberal mainstream media makes a big deal about nothing when it comes to a high level Republican's daughter.

The article said Conservatives were calling her a slut, not liberals. When she put that picture on twitter, she had to have known that she would get comments like she did. To pretend she is offended just makes her look stupid.
