Rick & Kathy Hilton (Paris' parents) gave $4,600 to McCain and he disses their daughter in an ad.

I'll bet that the Hiltons are not too pleased with their candidate now.

Paris' Parents to McCain: How Dare You
Posted Jul 30th 2008 3:59PM by TMZ Staff

This has gotta hurt. We did some digging and found Rick and Kathy Hilton gave the John McCain campaign $4,600 this year, and Johnny boy has now taken a shot at their lil' girl.

According to the Federal Election Commission website, the Hilton's contributed the dough last March. Initially, Rick put up all the $$$ but in April it was split between him and his wife.

Now McCain is taking a shot at Obama, using Paris as his ditzy weapon.

1. Serves 'em right, for having such bad judgment! teehee

[CottonBear]

4. I know!

I wonder if McCain's staffers checked to see if any of the Hiltons donated money before the ad was created and broadcast. I suppose McCain just doesn't give a shit who he insults. What an idiot.
This incident should serve as a warning to those who donate money to McCain.

8. McCain didn't think The Hiltons would see his paid film at the talkies. n/t

[gateley]

2. I hope they write new checks payable to Barack Omama. nt

[CottonBear]

7. Me too! n/t

[Ian David]

10. That would be so hot. n/t

[Ian David]

3. That is SO not hot. n/t

[CottonBear]

5. LOL! n/t

6. If they're willing to sacrifice their country for their tax cuts

maybe they won't mind mccain trying to marginalize Obama by saying he's more popular than Paris Hilton?

I haven't seen the ad that I'm sure is nausea inducing but isn't that the gist of it?

[CottonBear]

13. Here's a link to the video and some comments from the McCain campaign:

http://www.tmz.com/tmz_main_video?titleid=1701198643

In the ad, you see images of Paris and Brit flash across the screen for a split second, then Obama, as the announcer says, "He's the biggest celebrity in the world, but is he ready to lead?" The unspoken implication: another famous flake.

McCain's peeps just came out with this statement: "This ad obviously also addresses a unique facet in Barack Obama's campaign that is unlike any other campaign we've seen in modern political history. A campaign that is focused on the development of an enormous image of celebrity status."

The statement continues, "These images of celebrity status and the way he has conducted his campaign ... owe more to the development of an international celebrity status than it does to a traditional campaign for President."

Translated, McCain is comparing Obama to a woman who shaved her head in a fit of craziness and another who skanked up the screen with a sex tape.

21. Thank you! n/t

[DJ13]

9. Hmmm..... Daughter's reputation, or continued Bush tax cuts

I think they made their choice a long time ago.

[Ian David]

11. You think Mom and Dad will tell her, "Why can't you be more like that nice Mary Cheney girl?" n/t

[CottonBear]

17. Mom and dad don't seem to care as long as they get their tax cuts. n/t

[liberal N proud]

12. Doubt they care

They are supporting Senator McGoo. What ever it takes.

[CottonBear]

14. I suppose they're wealthy enough to not to give a damn about anything that's said about them. n/t

[muntrv]

15. McSame must be proud of his celebrity endorsements like Heidi & Spencer

from "The Hills."

[CottonBear]

16. I am so glad that I don't have TV. I have never seen those two except in photos. n/t

[Virginia Dare]

28. Heidi hangs out with Megan McCain now..

the McCain family ARE the Hiltons. Rich, arrogant and ruthless.

18. Rick Hilton's campaign contribution history...

[Ian David]

20. He donated to Joe Biden for President. Interesting.

Told you Joe Biden sucks ass.

[GardeningGal]

27. In 1987 - of course I'm sure that means nothing to you.

I'm sure you've always held the same opinions even as times have changed.

[my3boyz]

22. Hope they feel going knowing that their money paid for it. They don't care. Probably ready to donate

again to keep a Dem out.

[peoli]

23. I hope Paris and Brittney sue the fuck out him

[JackBeck]

24. Now these are the types of stories I love when a good dig is complete.

Another day, another McCain gaffe! He's such a maverick!

[samsingh]

25. you gotta love that.

[samsingh]

26. you gotta love that.

[kimbo fleiss]

29. I saw that and

I pointed it out when the ad first ran.
