Here’s a follow-up to a story we posted on Sunday regarding Cindy McCain’s seemingly contradictory statements regarding her position on the repeal of “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell.”

Last week, Mrs. McCain, wife of U.S. Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) spoke out against the military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy in an anti-bullying campaign produced by the NOH8 Campaign. , only to seemingly perform an about face just one day later.

Just one day later, Mrs. McCain made this statement, via Twitter: “I fully support the NOH8 campaign and all it stands for and am proud to be a part of it. But I stand by my husband’s stance on DADT.”

In spirit of his “keeping them honest” approach, CNN’s Anderson Cooper’s launched a new accountability segment, the “Ridicu-List,” and guess who made the list? Watch here:

But Sen. McCain offerend an explanation on an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” saying rs. McCain supports a “complete and thorough study and review of the effects on battle readiness and morale.”

Still no clarification from Mrs. McCain herself.
