John McCain just canceled a fundraiser at the home of his Republican pal Clayton Williams, a Texas oilman, after word came out in his 1990 campaign against Ann Richards for governor of Texas, Williams said he would campaign against Ms. Richards as he would a cow on his ranch: “head her and hoof her and drag her through the dirt.”
During the same campaign, he compared rape to the weather, saying, “As long as it’s inevitable, you might as well lie back and enjoy it.”
Nice friends John’s got there. And while publication of the remarks prompted the McCain campaign to do damage control and cancel the fund-raiser, it hasn’t inspired John to give back the $300,000 Williams has donated to his campaign.
