‘You can’t put lipstick on a pig’ is an old saying. It was used when I was a kid, long before full Metal Jacket was made.
He was NOT calling Palin a pig. I hate stupidity, even when it is on the right.
I agree with you after seeing the video.
It certainly was not a very bright thing to say. His audience seemed to get an extra chuckle out of it, obviously making the connection with Gov. Palin and her lipstick comment. Why that didn’t occur to Mr. Harvard grad, I don’t know?
He is only doing himself more harm....
