“Who would you let babysit your kids: {MaCain/Palin} or {Obama/Biden}?”

You just came up with a great campaign ad for McCain!

Okay, Obama has said that he wasn’t calling Palin a pig. Well, that is what it seems like. Many people are offended. No matter what he “meant” to say, the fact is that he insulted Mrs. Palin.

This shows that Obama isn’t smart enough to be President, if he said something this stupid, and then doesn’t apologise for insulting women. He just doesn’t have enough experience in life, to be President. He and Biden, who insulted Indians, (and if you know the story, about him hosting a middle eastern group, being late, serving them ham and offering them booze, while his wife arrives in a low cut dress....all against Muslim beliefs) just can not be trusted to represent us to the world, where they will make these kinds of mistakes all the time.

Remembering that Gov Palins nick name is Barracuda and ACORN's Community Organizer made the fish joke right along with the lipstick joke there is NO doubt in my mind. ACORN's Community Organizer, obama did it deliberately. Crying foul when he was caught up in it is his mo.

I hope they use it, then! Compliments of their good mate from New Zealand.

On Television - before he went on David Letterman’s show - Barack Obama said “enough” about “lipstick on a pig.”

Then he goes on David Letterman’s show and talks more about it - and for quite some time.

Why didn’t he tell Letterman “enough!” ?

You see, Hillary never said anything close to “What’s the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick.”

Sarah Palin did. Obama’s comments were an attack on Sarah Palin, and his “cold fish” comments following these were meant to attack the part of Sarah “Barracuda.”

When Obama said “enough,” it was for everyone else - not for him.

That’s why some call him Barack Obeyme.

As Dennis Miller put it, Palin has gotten into Obama’s head.

I don't believe Obama knew what he was saying - but if you watch all the dems sitting there - dems who starting cheering and whooping it up - THEY “got it”.

And they were tacky.

Obama should have reacted quickly and said, “no, I'm not talking about Sarah”. But he was taken aback by the uproar too. Obama does classic Freudian slips - like his “muslim faith” comment - he gets rattled - and the "slips" break through his cool.

Along with giving Hillary the finger and the lipstick remark, it just shows is an out and out liar. And I don’t respect anyone who sees it otherwise and makes me question their honor if they continue to lie for him or lie to themselves. It was quite obvious with the pauses, on the Hillary/finger clip and the lipstick clip exactly what he meant.

He makes me sick and I pray we don’t get this lying loser in the White House.

Thanks! I hate to misquote - unlike the MSM ... I like to get things accurate when I pass them on.

”Let's just be thankful that McCain or Palin has not been prone to common phrases such as "Let's call a spade a spade" or "Black (or Dark) Humor"..., etc.”

Did you know that according to the latest liberal ruling that the use of the term ‘community organizer’ is now considered a racial slur? I kid you not! McCain and Sarah really need to mind their P’s & Q’s.

The best thing for the McCain team to do is not express outrage but to make a joke out of it. Humor at Obama’s expense will go a lot further than trying to exact an apology out of Obama. Just have Palin carefully bring out her lipstick at the next campaign stop and apply it while asking “I hope this is good enough for Barack” or some sarcastic comment like that. Humor wears a lot better on voters than anger.

You can give a dipstick a Harvard law degree, but it’s still a dipstick.
