CNN

I'm certain the children from his first marriage to his injured wife whom he left for another younger woman were simply overlooked by accident...

How cute she thinks her dad is a hero...I wonder what his former family thinks about him and this book.

Oh and CJ, you seem to be an idiot for thinking Obama is some anti-christ or something...seriously people like you get on my nerves because you are sooooo ignorant. Last time I checked he didn't leave his wheelchaired bound wife and their kids to be with some young, rich bimbo. What about those Christian values???

Tim,

Nice try....typical Obamite, wannabe intellectual, LOL

Try again moron

That book should be called " John McCain and the Giant Prostate ".

Will this book include a chapter of John betraying his first wife, or his corrupt involvement with the Keating 5?

Sounds like the 2nd round of McCain kids has failing memory–must be a genetic problem.

The unfettered nastiness posted on these Ticker pages tells me a great deal about Obama supporters. It has definitely influenced my vote this year.

What child in this world would have any interest in reading this book?

I have one more point...did anyone stop and think that Meghan doesn't know her half siblings? So maybe she would have been uncomfortable writing things about their lives that was to he hearsay.

Just know that Carol McCain has moved on and actually supports John for President!!

my gi John action figure is not included.

hey Leslie,MD

obama threw his grandmother and his friend, mentor, pastor under the bus and you think he's the greatest. so your not a very good judge of character

You people are totally way off base.

Here is a daughter who loves her dad despite his faults. (Do your dad's have faults? Does Obama have faults?) She is conveying a story about her dad from her eyes and that is a wonderful sweet thing. How many dad's would be proud if their children took the time and wrote about them and then (not having to) donate part of the profits (remember her Mom is the heiress not Megan) to charity. That too would put a lump in most dad's throats.

So let's knock off the wisecracks unless your going to write how Obama made money off his books and has another one coming out. You know what's good for the goose is good for the gander too!

Laura, Boston, MA

I think it is in very poor taste for McCheater and Cindy McSkank to exploit their child in an effort to get votes. This is sick, sick, SICK!

McLooser left his first wife because he felt she had 'changed' since he returned from Viet Nam. REALLY? The fact that she was in a serious car crash and had numerous surgeries that left her 5 inches shorter?

McCoward filed for marriage with McSkank while still married to his first wife so he and Cindy are adulterers. He left his first wife for money and political ambition.

McSongbird sold out his wife for money, his country for special treatment in Viet Nam, and has sold out many Arizona constiuents with shady land deals, the Keating-5 shady land swap scandal, Viet Nam Vets with senate votes AGAINST their interest, and WILL sell out Americans for his own self interest.

I am an AMERICAN, Not Georgean!

Never vote for Songbird McWarmonger

looks like a really intense read... i hope i can wrap my brain around it.

hey obamanites
maybe when obama's kids get older they can write a book about why daddy didn't buy us christmas and birthday gifts like the other kids at church got

LOL ..... it must suck to be a Democrat !

I am hoping that John McCain's FIRST wife and his FIRST KIDS will put out a book about him – now that's a book that I'd read!

Obama '08

THIS MAKES ME WONDER ABOUT MCCAIN HIS DAUGHTER AND WIFE'S WHATS THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE OTHER CHILDREN?

Wonderful book, wonderful story, thank you CNN!. See, he is human after all, not the oger that you're pundits and Anderson Cooper are now trying to bias the american public against, of course, in favor of telling us that Obama is our next President.

This man, is a father, who loved his country enough to fight in a(nother) misguided War, raise a family (referring to you're report on how he dumped his 1st wife as a unconsionable article) and now who's daughter, not just wife, but who's daughter loves her father so much as to focus her talents on a most excellent book.

Now, you can waste your money on that book about Edwards, or the countless self fulling Obama falicies or you can spend value-added money on a book who celebrates her father.

Now that tells me more about the integrity of the man that all the world wind trips to Europe at the last political minute(referring to Obama's Circus Show of late)..and convinces me that much more to vote for Johnnie Mac...again, if he chooses Hillary over keeping the state of Virginia red versus purple or red.

WoW – As a Country we've reverted back in time (history) to the times of 1776!..the last time 2 sides of our then republic fought over the state of Virginia, with how (few) many delegates..

When are we going to look FORWARD and FOCUS on our CHILDRENS FUTURE not our own egos....now, take a very important note from McCain's most intelligent daughter and let's all just get along.

While children under the age of 18 cannot vote, adults over the age of 18 can't think of the children under the age of 18. The candidate who focuses on FACT BASED Information and our CHILDRENS FUTURE – wins my vote....

Why is this news?

CNN – You've just been sucker punched by the McLame campaign!

A childrens book my butt – It's McLame campaign propaganda pure and simple – only dressed up with kiddy pictures and fawning prose for one of the candidates.

So here is the real story.

John McCain's first wife was the former Carol Shepp. Married in 1965 and divirced in 1980. Her children are Douglas (born 1959), Andrew (born 1962) and Sidney (born 1966). If you look close you will see that he only had one child with Carol. The first two were hers from a previous marrige and not they didn't have an affair, her husband died.

His second wife is the former Cindy Hensley. They were married in 1980. They have four children, Meghan (born 1984), John Sidney IV "Jack" (born 1986), James (born 1988), and Bridget (born 1991).

So that is the real story. Enjoy!

To the guy named HEADLINE NEWS

"95% Obamabots
3% McCain supporters

YEAH CNN YOU'RE REALLY UNBIASED…

This will never see the light of day like 150 of my other 152 posts…"
-------------------------------
Dude your an idiot and apparently you don't know math, 95+3 is not 100% you must get your math from Bush. And we "obamabots" post things because we actually support and like our candidate.

Everyone calls Obama a celebrity, and maybe he is...but so is McCain, and EVERY other candidate that has run for president. I hate to break it to most of you Obama haters, but this IS a popularity contest – on a huge scale. He may be the anti-christ, but I'd rather trust the first black president than another narrow minded, deficit-creating, bloodthirsty rerun of Bush.

Cool, Meg.... I was just on my way to the store for firewood.

SHE'S HOT

Jan,

Get a grip. Obama was blasted by the right wing when his kids were on TV as exploiting them for political purposes. But, he realized afterwards it may not have been the best decision.

No, his duaghter probably did not have to be convinced to write this book but isn't the timing interesting? And why whitewash the story?
Is that "straight talk"?

Luis....I think I just give up on you.

"One percent of the book’s proceeds will go to the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund" = A SLAP IN THE FACE of our veterans and their families!!!

This is the equivalent of leaving one penny on the table as a tip, letting the waitress know that you thought about a tip but they didn't deserve any more than that.

shows you family value, mccain was married once before and have children with his first wife, that would make them meghan half brother and sisters why write a book on daddy, and not mention them. that just half the story. mccain approved this book disregarding his first set of children. what every the personal family matters are, they still carry the name mccain and should have been mention. ( AND I DIS APPROVE THIS BOOK. )

Even if John's daughter did not mention his other children in her book at first, as a father he should have made certain that they were included. He want to be the president to all Americans but can't even acknowledge all of his children?!?!?!

Things younger than John McCain:
ALF
Howdy Doody
Area Codes
FM Radio
Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwiches
Automatic Car Transmissions

Vote for a presidential candidate NOT endorsed by the worst president in American history!

McCain was a traitor in Vietnam!!

His foreign policies are based on Wikipedia!!

Ask Cheney, Rumsfeld and Ashcroft how valuable experience is!!

Get off my lawn!!!

I hope it includes John McCain and Cindy (Hensley) McCain adulterous affair and drug addiction. That way kids would know to just say no drugs and infidelity.

----write a book???? why dosen't she go to IRAQ and be useful?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

Does she cover when he left his first wife?

You people are sick. You all need some help.

Obama has Kids-Have Seen Them
McCain has kids-Haven't seen them-He figures he must copy Obama

Which chapter list him leaving his "damaged" first wife for a beer heiress hoping to fund the rest of his political career with her questionable overseas investments and ties to rogue nations, warlords and foreign dictators?

Obama writes a book and he is criticized, McCain daughter writes a book that will reap more millions, no one find a problem with this.

CNN This is not news....we already had to listen to nothings about the two from the present president in the news (what ever they names are), now yet another one and her father isn't even president.

Obama 08

McCain 08! He does put America first!

The other guy hasn't a clue about anything but grinning and pay-back politics. He puts himself first always!

pukE

Thanks again CNN for erasing my post. I really guess you are as full as hate as most of these post are. Thanks for the bias.

Well if I were a Democrat and all I had to choose from was an African Socialist, A lying lawyer with a scumbag husband, and Another lying lawyer who's his own scumbag.....I might complain about a child's vision of her father too!

is she from the first wife or from the lobbyist concubine?!

— "but the children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned."

Wish McCain would write a book:
"My life as a terrible pilot obsessed with living in my dad's shadow"
"How to leave your first wife for a beer heiress in 7 days"
"If you wife gets crippled get a newer model"
"Penthouse True Confessions: My trophy wife at Sturgis"
"Russian Empire: Nuke Em Now, or Nuke Em Later?"

He doesn't even know how to purchase his own book online. Is this a president for the 21st Century? I don't think so.

Obama 08

Is an action figure of GI John included?

Yeah, what a joke! Um, Meghan... his first family, his ORIGINAL family- little Sidney McCain- SHE is the little girl that was left behind when your father left for Vietnam- and didn't see him for the next 5 1/2 years. SHE and her brothers were the children left behind when your father dumped his first wife. I've noticed on your blog, you act as if your half sister and step-brothers do not exist as well. But WE notice, part of the reason I will never vote for your father.

Can you believe the title illustration? I mean, even if you were crazy enough to _want_ the 50s back....

He's a loser, end of story.

Obama 08

It's a good idea. Apparently McCain realizes that adults are not buying it (figuratively and literally), so he's hawking his spin to children.

Amazing you go through 5 years of captivity, and you can't even support your wife and kids. You didn't run out on your buddies, but you ran out on your wife and kids. It’s shameful that the real story can’t be told, but no matter. I'll vote for a real hero in November, someone one who stayed with his wife and kids.

O/08

Booo, more insults to the first set of kids. Buy the book if you want to teach your kids to grow up and leave your spouse and kids. Great lesson for the kids.

Buy the book if you want a close encounter with a loser.

Obama 08

Good for you, kido. Did you mention that your dad constantly tries to paint Obama as a non-American, non-patriot when in fact McCain was born in Panama (non-US State), and Obama was born in Hawaii (US State)?

Who cares about this book,,,this is not a news.

Why don't you put this article up after the book has been released. Then people can have a chance to read it and make an informed comment about it.

It's a great fairytale. We know the real truth. He had an affair with Cindy Lou while his wife was sick with children. Then he ditched for a beer fortune and a barbie doll.

Obama 08

The ironic part is that books weren't invented yet when McCain was a child.

1 percent is a lot of cash to a Republican.Can we write it off my income taxes?

I wonder if she told the story about the time they tried to play charades. McCain was trying to be a grizzly bear but couldn't put his arms over his head, so everyone thought he was Frankenstein.

All my friends are overcome with emotion and will commit to giving their iphones to charity now.My dog and cat are even sniffling.I recomend all dittoheads to buy as soon as they can to keep along side Rushs news letter for the poor.

Bad idea....should have waited till after the election to release this tale

This book will help pull the economy out and cut the deficit in half by years end.

Not even good bathroom reading, unless you use the paper as tissue!

So based on the cover, did he have her when he was 60?

My presidential candidate can beat up yours
Obama '08

please don't mention that your dad loves war.. that is not good for children.

Oh how cute megan but he does have other children with his first wife that he left for your rich barbie doll mommy so even with your cute little book I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR YOUR DAD!!! SORRY SWEETIE!!

What will they stoop to next?????? It's nauseating.

Phil Gramm started crying when he read it,but he didnt whine about it,hes to tough for that.

I hope that he autographs a copy and sends it to his first wife and children...who waited for him while he was captured...only for him to kick them to the curb for a beer heiress.

Is she still dating that Ron Paul supporter?

Wonder how the children who were left out from the previous marriage feel?

You even have Rush crying on the air now,this book just gets to the heart strings doesnt it?

What an opportunist. Like daddy, like daughter!

This is gratuitous "feel good" press for a 72 year old man's daughter?

Am sure that it is a very nice book for children, but we're talking adults here. And of course, what everyone's blogging about is how his first family/children have been left out.

You know the Edward's scandal brings something to mind other than the obvious McCain leaving his first wife. Edwards has a challenge here in that he has the opportunity to do what McCain apparently did not. That is work through his self-delusions/selfishness and compulsions, to name a few, by working through this terrible time that can be the crucible for the good of himself and his family. McCain on the other hand just moved on from one family to the next without any time to look at himself, and I believe to this day he is still compensating for what he should have reflected on many years ago. He still projects his lack of self-knowledge, and lacks wisdom for this time in history in this great nation of ours.

We want a signed copy for our library,and one for our history teacher.

How many advance copies did Bush order?

I find it harsh for the other children of John McCain not to be included. Given he was married and had children before Cindy, it should be included in any biography. Was there never any contact between the first set of children and the current group? If there wasn't, that might explain things, but I still find it rude and questionable. It almost denies their existance and the previous marriage McCain had.

I told all forty of my Aliases to read it.

Some artistic liberties were clearly taken with the cover of this book, I don't see Mccain in any of those illustrations. The str8 talk express should be all over this, asap!

Good thing it's a children's book...

Adults aren't as forgiving when it comes to selective amnesia! I feel SO sorry for McCain's 1st wife and his children from that marriage....... Forgotten, ignored, and written out of history - how convenient!

That said I am sickened by such propaganda and I feel such a book shouldn't be written until dear old Dad is pushing up daisies...

Inappropriate...

It'll be relegated to the bargain bins in no time!

Luis? You don't know that the Manhurian Candidate reference fits McCain do you? What an idiot!!!

Get out the handkerchief people ! Simon and Schuster are also publishing a book smearing Obama. No surprise here ! Except that the little children will fight and die in Iraq for the next 100 years.

Can we see that photo with Nixon again?

anotjer political stunt from mccain for a push to get more votes,, wonder if she knows the real story about mccain on how he decieved us while he was in the service,, this can be checked out on doin searches about mccain via military:mccain,, check it out ,, i have,, very interesting if you click on the right link,,,,

So a childrens book about McCain........ I really hope people won't waste their money in this waste of paper.

Where the hell am I, in Sparta?

Wanna teach the kids the glories of war and military service, do ya?

So, if he can't bring his own children together as a family how is he suppose to help our country?

What a nasty bunch of democrats–cutting up a children's book. I did not hear the repubs slicing and dicing Obamas for exploiting their children and them deciding it was a bad idea, and then continuing to exploit them. I believe it was the daughter's own idea, not exploitation by her Dad--unlike the Obamas.

I approved this book and it will help my election chances,plus more money for my campaign.

What a Load of Crap. Totally for political gain.

Was this book written by GW Bush? Like all childrens books I'm sure its cute but also a fairytale.

95% Obamabots
3% McCain supporters

YEAH CNN YOU'RE REALLY UNBIASED...

This will never see the light of day like 150 of my other 152 posts...

This will give George something to read as soon as hes done reading "My Pet Goat".

CNN what about the first wife and where i shes

It's to bad this sweet little children has become a person that encourages war and spreads false information on the campaign.

ONE percent, that's it...these guy's have some nerve, one percent just to say its going to donations to help it sell, what nerve...

We're missing about 10 years of philandering in this book.

Did she really write it or is it just more propaganda to try and make McCain look like a good father? I remember Cindy McCains recipes– those weren't hers, maybe this was just written by someone else trying to make McCain look good.

I can see thru all of the GOP's lies and distractions. A positive book about McCain is released, and a negative one about Obama is released all at the same time. We are sick and tired of the old politics that distract and distort the truth. Not this year, not this time.

OBAMA '08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

C'mon CNN it's time to do a story about his first wive, do some research, do some journalism!!!

When McCain is elected–this will be just as important to enriching our children's lives about the benefits of leading a purpose filled life, trust in family and country, and proof that keeping ones faith in yourself and your ideals can result in very great things.

My salute–a good work that should be up there with other childrens books about our nation's heros–from George Washington, through Knute Rockne and Jim Thorpe, John Marshall, Martin Luther King–and on to John McCain, Hillary Clinton, and Barrack Obama.

It should be titled "Dear OLD Dad"

1% is better than what "My Dad, John McCain" is giving to the troops.

OK...2 books Bashing Mr. Obama and one that says "My Daddy's GREAT!!!" YAY!!!!!

You people are so angry. Geez, count to 10 and breathe deep. Obama and his heard of unicorns will ride in to save the day.

To ignore the children of McCain and his first wife- is disgusting!!!
McCain had an affair with Cindy- while still married to his first wife.
McCain eventually left his first wife and children- to start a new family with the very rich Cindy.
A hero in war (as a result of being a prisoner)- who was a cheater in his personal life!

Good for you, Meghan! I hope your book does well! I won't be buying it but I'm sure many others will.

It's a children's book, based on her love for her dad. Of course she doesn't include his first marriage's family, it's not her family, it's from her perspective. Now if John McCain wrote an autobiograhy and left out his first family... that would be bad form.

so the other day was about obama's book now it's about meghan mccain's book. i guess i'm playing the disgruntled member of the opposite party...

WHAT?!?!! she wrote a book???! how arrogant is that!?!?!? she must be lining her pockets!!!! blah blah blah blah...

so what?

Part of the book should try to explain why McCain commited adultery after his wife had a car accident.

propaganda!?!

Further proof that the MSM isn't in Obama's pocket.

Well, I can't imagine too many 5 to 10 year olds reading this book. And, Ms. McCain, if you and your family are so patriotic, why are you only giving the Intrepid Fallen Heroes only 1% of the proceeds? From what I hear, you people don't need the money yourselves.

Yuck

It will be, partially, the absolute mean-spirtedness of so called progressives that will cause yet another loss. They will be inconsolable, and there will be much laughing among the productive and wealthy. Do you realize how ludicrous you people are to Americans who take advantage of being Americans?

Oh VOMIT!!!!!

McCain = Affirmative Action at its WORST. How did a loser get a coveted Navy pilot job when he should have washed out?...You guessed it, he is the son of a politician. JUST LIKE BUSH

McLame = Bush Another dumb @ss well connected kid that got a free ride.

writing children's books while her mom is doing bis. in cuba........tsk, tsk.........

And my Daddy the WAR HERO and PATRIOT defeated the media created, empty suit, Manhurian Candidate and saved America from his cult of Liberal, Socialist, tree hugging, ugly videographer banging, anti-American inbreds......

THE END!!!

Vote McCain or join the insane....

Should be interesting since McCain is a decorated war veteran with many years of public service. The other candidate is lacking .

one percent? wow, how generous!

My Pet Goat, part 2

So, daddy's life didn't actually start until AFTER he dumped his first wife and committed adultery with lil' Meghan's drug addicted mommy??? God, give us a break from this nonsense ... your dad IS NOT an honorable man my dear and why would any child be interested in his tired old story misrepresented by you???!!

This is what we get any time we vote men into office. They can't keep from cheating on their wifes. I have no respect for any woman who would cheat with someones husband much less for the man who cheated. Edwards is done. Why are men so stupid. This is exactly why we need more women in politics. Get these stupid men out of politics.

CNN if you have the balls you need to report John Mccain relationships truthfuly, but you woun't your are a bunch of whimps who are afraid to lose your jobs.

Remember Giuliani and his children from his first marriage, McCain is no different than him. It also surprises me that there is a gap between McCain's life as a POW and then to the Senate, the pieces of the puzzle don't fit.

Book is good thing for Kids. But if one ties that to Politics then this book means McCain is OLD. Time to retire. All his ideas are OLD, his energy plans are OLD, his NO PLAN economy policy is same OLD as Bush failed policies.

GO OBama-08

Wow...kudos to all the comments. Reality bites eh JMac?

This is children's book?? What is she going to teach to the children? Forget about mom? I cant imagine how Meghan can forget her mom. It must be McCain's home school policy. I wont suggest my kids to see it.
Aron

Yawwwwnnn....whatever! I want to read the book from his first wife who waited for 5 yrs. trying to hold the family up when he was in prison, but who came home and cheated on her with his mistress Cindy who he left her for because Cindy was a billionaire heiress!!

So now he is being painted as a saint?

The repubs will find a way to justify his behavior. Had this been Obama, they would have moved the election up to August....what losers and hypocrites those repubs are....

Chapter 1: Found out McCain cheated on his first wife!
Chapter 2: McCain voted on getting the Ford Pinto! Once it exploded on him(he backed up into another car), he said it exploded because it had WMD!
Chapter 3: McCain has a bad temper
Chapter 4: McCain can’t help his kids with computer work. He doesn’t know how to use a PC
Chapter 5: McCain’s kids found out that he is NOT smarter than a 5th grader! Remember he was at the bottom 5 at his school! (895 out of 896?)

I think it is repugnant to use a children's book as propaganda.

"But the children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned ". Mccain no mention of his first wife and chidren tells it all he is a selfish old man . How can one have a true biography by not telling all the truth.

"Oh, my dad, Exxon John, is running for President, a perfect time for me to take advantage of the media by promoting and selling my book."

Just why didn't she mention her other siblings? Could it be because if she did it wouldn't make for "family values" reading material for those between 5 and 10?

I guess then I can write about my father being Santa...

I guess the press needs to do a stupid story on John McCains family since the liberal press did so many goofy stories on Obama's family to cover up his anti- white american stances.I don't really care about their families. As long as they are well and safe it is no news. Now that big mouthed Obama mama "who for the first time is proud of america" she would be news if she spoke her true mind like she did in her written thesis about how sorry the "White America" is and how we should socialize the goverment to help the poor blacks we so badly abused.

wow, a whole ONE percent will be donated to charity.. how generous. and how sweet that the the children from mccain's first marriage (which would be meghan's half-siblings..) are left unmentioned. i see that she's really trying to go a long way to hide the fact that her father abandoned those children and his first wife for cindy. not exactly the qualities i'd want in a president..

I don't think I need to say anything more than has been said. Well done people!!! You hit all the right points! Lack of mention of first family that waited for him to come home, how he cheated on his first wife w/Cindy to continue to fund his political career!!

OBAMA '08 Someone w/family values who puts people first.

She should be giving all the proceeds to Childrens charities.
The ones who will be hurt if her Daddy is elected.

This is nice, but why is it news???

This book reminds me of my daddy, Rush Limbaugh,but I havent got a chance to meet him yet.My mommy met him in Vegas I think.

HOW SAD! THE LEAST THAT MCCAIN'S FAMILY COULD DO IS SHOW CONSIDERATION & APPREICATION FOR THE FAMILY THAT MCCAIN LEFT BEHIND. . . TYPICAL OF A UNITER!!!

This is B.S. Who is the audience for this book? sounds boring to me.....and not to mention his kids from the FIRST marriage is B.S. I wouldn't buy it if my life depended on it!! At least by mentioning them, it shows he's a good dad but a lousy husband!!! and now we now he will make an even lousier president (hope we never get the change fo find out)

OBAMA '08/'12

Uhhh...."Abbey" I think the phrase you're looking for is "young heiress".
I don't even want to think what a "young hairless" might be...

Oh please!
Isn't the timing just a little bit suspect?

Overheard in a bathroom stall on the [R] side of the capital: "a peek at Meghan's book, or a peek at Cindy's panties...its doesn't matter, as long as we get a peek at something."

Way to get 'em while they're young. I feel like I might vomit.

I think I just threw up a little bit. Disgusting.

GIVE ME A BREAK !!!! THIS BOOK SHOULD BE SET ON FIRE !!!

Who Cares!

Pure propaganda. What a joke.

Completely weird. If you're a diabetic, don't read this. If you're prone to nausea, don't read this. McCain, as usual, the facts and what you and your family are publishing as your story are somewhat in disagreement. This book is the McCain campaign equivalent of Hillary's tears. Total theater, and complete BS.

Naval Academy students are NOT cadets/they are midshipmen.

I WONDER IF IT WILL SHOW HIM WITH HIM DOING HIS WIFE WHILE HIS EX IS IN THE BACK GROUND IN A WHEEL CHAIR

"The book is recommended for children between ages 5 and 10". Well that's great. It means the book is readable by the people who are most likely to vote for McCain.

Im not voting for McCain, but its nice to know that his daughter thinks he was a good father...

MCCoward doesn't want anyone to talk about his first marriage. The wife he abandonned when she was still in a wheel chair is a secret.

He cheated on her with many women until he married one, with lots of money, so he paid her off and off he went, leaving her to fend for hersel.

"Cindy McCain, along with Meghan's siblings Jack, Jimmy and Bridget, are described fondly in the book — but the children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned."

What a snooze.

What a sellout! How about mentioning the truth about Mccain's first marriage? EVERYONE wants to know about his first marriage and how he dumps her for someone younger. Talk about being a hypocrite! His whole campaign is full of hypocrisies. Why can't the media like CNN interview his first wife? Is she still alive? And her kids? Why can't CNN speculate what John Mccain's first marriage was really like? John Mccain is not better than Edwards right now when it comes to cheating in their marriage.

Daughter will always love their fathers. Shame the title isn't How I felt when daddy cheated on his x-wife while dating Mommy? or better yet, How daddy dissed his other family and gave all his love to me

Did it mention anything about the 5 planes John crashed before being shot down in Viet Nam?

How nice mom and Dad were able to pay to get her book published. It shows what a tight faily the McCains are, or did Meghan forget she has step-siblings. Oh, I forgot, McCain walked out on them for the heiress!

The children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned, just like her daddy, don't let facts get in the way of good story. Only one percent to charity Miss Trust Fund, I guess the math should be easy 1% of zero is still zero. Have mommy write a check an call it a day.

Gee, another celebrity story.

Guess it's the old "Oedipal" thing.
By the way, Carol does not support John. John probably supports Carol with Cindy's money. Guess Meghan learned her ethics from her parents.

You all are idiots. Just accept the fact that the biggest celebrity Obama will not last until November when people wake up and realize he is the second coming of Lenin. Do not vote for NObama... Obamanation=Abomination.

He is the antichrist (look at the similarities) and will ruin America

Okay moral base, what about his first family? Or are we brushing that under the table just like his current wife's pill addiction. I wouldn't want the book even if they gave it to me.

Cindy McCain, along with Meghan's siblings Jack, Jimmy and Bridget, are described fondly in the book — but the children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned.

___________________

You THINK???

Meghan doesn't want the public to know the true John McCain. I doubt that SHE even knows the true John McCain.

hillary for president

Will she mention how he dumped his ex-wife for a young blond?

Why of course the McCain book neatly omits anything that doesn't "fit" with crafting a fictional story. First wife, first children, immoral conduct, ignoring his marriage vows, signing confessions for the North Vietnamese. McCain is synonymous with fake.

Doesn't it seem strange that there is no mention of the "other" siblings? That is a red flag. At lease Obama is not throwing his own family under the bus. And people say McCain is a Maverick? I guess so.

Good for his child but I REALLY hope McCain will give half the proceeds from the sales to his first wife's children..This is just McCain copying Obama when he let his kids speak to the press..following again McCain..as you will always do.

I bet the mother of McCain's first two children isn't mentioned either!

The situation with the kidnappings in mexico, please help! I haven't heard the campaigns talk about it, please please address this. I'm begging you guys if anyone take's notice please have Mr. Obama or Mr. Mccain, or any politician for that matter address it. Please!

Well, here is another man that was married and when he spotted this raving beauty in Hawaii I believe it wash he had to get a divorce so he could be the husband to heiress beer lady. My point is It is in both sides of the political party dems and repub. They just can't seem to keep their zippers up. They must think it is the american flag being raised.

"but the children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned"

nice one.

How does she know anything about him as POW? That is part of his first marriage. Stop trying to create an image that does not exist. His childhood and first marriage are part of the man. Period.

how to produce propaganda for tots

WHY DOES CNN ALLOW MCBUSH ADDS TO PLAY WHILE IT ONLY GIVES A TEXT FOR OBAMA ADDS? JUST CURIOUS!!!!

I SAW THE ADD ONLINE, AND I LIKED IT, THOUGH, I like to see ADDS THAT DEBUNK MCBUSH'S FACTTUALLY INCORRECT/LIE ON OBAMA TAX PLANS. AND I LIKE THE OBAMA CAMP TO HIT MCBUSH AND HIS CAMP FOR SUGGESTING SAYING OBAMA DOES NOT PUT COUNTRY FIRST. LIBERTMAN SAID YESTERDAY, MCBUSH PUTS COUNTRY FIRST WHILE OBAMA DOES NOT.

I AM AMAZED THAT MCBUSH IS UNDERMINING OBAMA'S SERVICE TO THIS COUNTRY AS SOMETHING LESS BECAUSE O DID NOT SERVE IN THE MILITARY...MCBUSH, DOES THAT MEAN ALL THOSE WHO CONTRIBUTE TO THEIR COUNTRY IN THE FORM OF VOLUNTEERISM AND IN OTHER WAYS ARE WORTHY LESS......WHAT ABOUT OBAMA'S CONTRIBUTION AS A CIVIL RIGHTS LAWYER, AS STATE LEGISLATOR, AS COMMUNITY ORGANIZER, AS A PROFESSOR, AS USA SENATOR, AS A TAX PAYER......REALLY MCBUSH, SHAME ON YOU!

DAD IS TOO OLD TO BE PRESIDENT. AND NOT SMART ENOUGH.......

VOTE OMAMA..........08

One percent of the proceeds to charity - I am overwhelmed by the generosity.

As to Abby's comment at 1:02, did you mean "young heiress" as opposed to "young hairless"?

IM STILL NOT VOTING FOR YOUR DAD!

Mccain and the republicans talk about morals and values but his first wife and children stuck by his side!! But he sure did not stick by their side or their mother's side!! CNN since you want to report things personally about the Obama's why don't you report or dig on Mccain!!

Family Value's people take note.

"Cindy McCain, along with Meghan's siblings Jack, Jimmy and Bridget, are described fondly in the book — but the children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned."

What does that tell you?

This is just one book.... but the phrase "the children from McCains first marriage are left unmentioned" tells all of us that there is more to this story.

Right the first wife is not alive or human.
She was part of his life and were her kids. Mabe less sanitized books will do him more justice and make it straight talk

McCain's a true American hero... The Obama followers who dispute this need to rethink what is important to them in life.

Their first response will be a "warmonger" comment, yet little do they know he has a son fighting in Iraq, and another in the Naval Academy.

He puts AMERICA FIRST... Unlike his counterpart who puts the POLLS FIRST.

I'm proud to vote for this man... He's experienced more in his life than many can ever hope or fear too.

McCain '08

Being a good parent should involve all of the children that have your DNA. He left his first wife for Cindy and I just don't buy this whole great daddy thing.

Creepy!

WHAT ABOUT MCCAIN'S FIRST FAMILY WHY ARE THEY NOT MENTIONED IN THE BOOK? OUT OF SIGHT OUT OF MIND I SUPPOSE.....OBAMA 08

" but the children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned."

Well no one can argue that McCain is unAmerican

Why doesn't she have a chapter about how her daddy cheated with her Mommy while he was leaving his first wife? Propoganda at its finest.

Yup,

A real American who can't account for ALL his children. He also hides his elite up-bringing.

I THOUGHT THE CHILDREN WERE OFF LIMITS THAT TO ME INCLUDES POSITIVE PRESS.

SOOOOOOOOOO what, there trying to court 10 yr olds? What relevance does this have for anything????? Look too at the fact that JUST 1% of proceeds are going to charity. Their worth like 1/2 a billion dollars and all they can muster is 1% come on, pathetic Mr. I'm a veteran and fully and whole-heartedly support them!

OBAMA '08

I hope the book ends with...

"And then my dad lost the Presidency and moved back home. President Obama said my daddy gave it a good try but just couldnt keep up. The End."

Talk about historical revisionism....

"One percent of the book’s proceeds will go to the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, which provides support for wounded military veterans and their families."

ONE percent? Wow, how generous!

Very touching stuff, not a single mention of his other children. Not a single mention of the family that was waiting for him while he was a prisoner. I come from a similar split up family, and there is no way we could ever ignore each other. I think that says a lot about his values.

Also, i think this Beer family (more great values) can afford to contribute more than 1% to charity.

Good Timing!...But it still won't help your Dad, Mr. McBush get into the White House.
We do not need another, war mongering wealthy Oil man in the office

Did she include the chapter where he leaves his "damaged" first wife for a beer heiress hoping to fund the rest of his political career with her questionable overseas investments and ties to rogue nations, warlords and foreign dictators?

I hope she writes the truth in there... that she is a part of his second family after he dumped his first aging and ailing wife for a young hairless. Talk about family values that children can look up to.

......."but the children from McCain’s first marriage are left unmentioned."

oh,, that's just cold....

Hmmm . . hope it Sells . . Good for you, Meghan .. Not Supporting Your Dad though ...
