Cindy McCain is on the cover of Newsweek. Here's what went through my head, in this order, when I saw it:
1) Hooray! I get to write a list!
2) Oh look! It's Cindy McCain and her crazy eyes.
3) Maybe the article will contain clues as to how old this woman actually is. Is she 70? Is she 35? Who can tell!
4) Why doesn't she have friends who are loyal enough to take her to Mary Kay to get an eye makeup Make Under?
Then I read the article and felt sorta bad about thinking snarky thoughts about Cindy McCain. Newsweek isn't Fox "News" by any stretch of the imagination, but it certainly isn't MoveOn.org either...George Will has his own column for goodness sakes. Did I just write "for goodness sakes"?? Something must be wrong with me...mesmerized by icy blue stare...black eyeliner swirling in psychedelic circles...I...like...Cindy...McCain.
But I do. I like Cindy McCain. I think her politics probably suck...oh sorry, too biased? I'll revise: I think her politics are probably vastly different from mine and, THEREFORE, they suck. I also could have predicted the part about her attending USC, being a cheerleader and a sorority girl, and driving around LA in a gold Mercedes. Still. And Yet. She seems like an actual person. She loves her kids, she loves her husband (yeeps...move along...don't dwell on it....), and after I read the article, I felt kind of sorry for her because she has more money than God and openly and embarrassingly dealt with a drug addiction, and she appears to practice what she preaches about service to others and maybe she can't help it that she looks like a fembot. By the way, her hands and neck indicate that she is WELL over 35, she does tend to wear the vacant stare of a fembot when she's on television with her awkward sell-out husband, and her eye makeup is a travesty.
All of this I was glad to snoop out in the article, but I was also moved by an account of a missed phone call from her son fighting in Iraq because, even though she sleeps with her phone so she won't miss a call from him, she'd handed it to an assistant during a campaign rally while she went up on stage with McPain. Plus, she clearly thinks George Bush is an ass and lets us all know without actually coming right out and saying, "George Bush is an ass."
So Cindy. I'm the WRH. It's nice to get to know you. I adapt mostall of my recipes from other sources, I don't know diddly about eye makeup, and I, also, think George Bush is an ass.
Peace.

Ok, another comment from me, but on the photo this time. I love this photo of Cindy McPain! First off, she has the bang sweep that I longed for when I had bangs. Second, she's all edgy weird looking and while I can't remember hearing her voice I really want to believe with my whole heart that it's edgy too. Edgy and whispery at the same time. Possible? Then thirdly, yes, there is the makeup thing. And in support of full-disclosure in America I'd like three minutes to study her visage super close up (with a flashlight) in order to see just what is happening there. And how it happens. And then we wash it all off and see what she looks like al dente. (I know that's the wrong word, but it just seemed to fit)
