Obama: Lipstick on a Pig (Did he just call Sarah Palin a pig and a stinky fish?)
Politico ^ | Tuesday, September 9, 2008 | Ben Smith

Posted on 09/09/2008 3:36:33 PM PDT by kristinn

Amie Parnes reports from Lebanon, VA:

Obama poked fun of McCain and Palin's new "change" mantra.

"You can put lipstick on a pig," he said as the crowd cheered. "It's still a pig."

"You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called change. It's still gonna stink."

"We've had enough of the same old thing."

The crowd apparently took the "lipstick" line as a reference to Palin, who described the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull in a single word: "lipstick."

“Barry’s intro was taken from this cartoon, originally published 9/5/08.”

Ramadan started on Sept 2, and lasts until Oct 1. The timeline makes sense, since Obama has started making major-league gaffes around that date.

Has anyone seen Obama eating or drinking in public during daylight hours???

He’d fit right in with the rest of their moronic line up.

Search Utube for:

Obama Smears McCain-Palin As Lipstick On A Pig

The remark was IMPLICIT. He did not have to mention any names to get his point across.

The only other time the word ‘lipstick’ was used effectively in the campaign was by Mrs. Palin. He knew EXACTLY what he was doing.

Your point is well taken. I have been told Muslims are VERY irritable during Ramadan. For obvious reasons, this would be a good time for a debate and make it just before dark.

“This isn’t a slip of tongue moment.”


Slip of the tongue. Slip of the tongue.

Yes. Obama throwing out that comment at a rally reminds me of the UNCLE getting a sweet little kiss from his NIECE, and he tries to SLIP HER THE TONGUE.

Obama was ‘frenching’ the audience at that rally.

NEW TERM FOR OBAMA’S CAMPAIGN STRATEGY: FRENCHING.

I’m not a big fan of these gotcha type political attacks. Little substance, pure rhetoric. The energy expended in these efforts should be put into educating the public about the dangers of socialism, IMHO.

I think he was calling McCain an old, stinky fish. As far, as Muhammad was concerned, Jews and Christians are the sons of apes and pigs.

New Political term: FRENCHING THE CROWD.

John Kerry’s deer hunting photo op.
Dukakis’s Tank photo op.
Obama’s Lipstick joke.

When a candidate thinks they are really, really ‘smart’ in doing or saying something, to take advantage of the crowd and situation.

Based on the Uncle trying to slip the tongue to the niece who is trying to give him a sweet kiss on the cheek.

FRENCHING.

I bet Michele is real happy about those comments that her “anointed one” spewed out today. NOT!!!

If she finds that behavior acceptable, she is as sick as he is. I can’t help but wonder about that crowd sitting there listening to that crap. Now that is scarey!!!

A lot of very smart motivation specialists believe that people subconsciously self-sabotage all the time. Frankly, I think BO wants to win too bad. It overrides his common sense.

You may be right about that.

Personally, I think that Obama is a very confused person, who really doesn't know himself. He can't ever seem to take a principled position on anything of substance. He flip-flops and dissembles at the drop of a hat whenever he's challenged on anything.

Look at his record going back to his college days. There's just nothing there. It's as if he were shuttled through school, then into politics, and up the ladder without even showing up.

All of this is curious for a presidential candidate. I don't think we've ever seen a presidential candidate about whom we knew so little. He seems to have cruised through life without leaving a wake.

What we do know about him can mostly be inferred through his nefarious associations, and what legislation he signed on to.

He's like some indefinite, hazy picture that you have to squint your eyes to make out. A puzzle of sorts, with lots of pieces missing.

The point I'm trying to make, is that it appears that he's actually worked at being invisible and indefinite. So much so, that he's even a mystery to himself.

This is why I brought up the theory last night that he may be the product of a Pain-Drug-Hypnosis deep op of some kind. I'm talking about a real life Manchurian Candidate. Someone who was selected to be programmed and groomed to be exactly where he is today, and poised to be the instrument of a covert takeover of our government.

I know it sounds like science fiction, but government intelligence agencies were capable of doing this sort of stuff a long time ago. It's entirely conceivable that a long-term operation of this sort could have been begun decades back, once the operative was selected.

There are just too many dots that don't connect about this guy. And those dots that do connect, come together in inexplicable and suspicious ways.

I don’t think he would tank knowingly. But maybe in the back of his mind a little voice has told him he bit more than he can chew—and it’s time to spit it out.

It may be a dash of all these theories thrown together and all mixed up. Just like Barry.

It could all come down to the fact that frankly, he's in way "above his pay grade", and is now so mentally vapor-locked that he bumbles and stumbles no matter how hard he tries to get it right.
