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."
If you want to further DIVIDE this country along social, economic, racial and gender lines....
an arrogant liberal elitist like Hussein,,,his anti-American, angry, bitter wife,,,,
his anti-American hate-filled racist mentor and spiritual advisor and ex-pastor,,,
and his TERRORIST friend (with his TERRORIST wife),,,
ARE THE RIGHT PEOPLE AT THE RIGHT TIME!!!
Hussein needs to apologize to Sarah, all women, and all Americans for PRACTICING 'GUTTER' POLITICS at a new low level that no one could have ever imagined.
No way. The audience knew exactly what he was saying and so did he. Undeniable.
You mean that MSM talking heads were already using the LIPSTICK/PIG comment?
Did they photoshop his ears for this cover?
Nah. They just used a stinky fish-eye lens.
The Dems know they have been out smarted and are behind. These attacks are right out the Saul Alinsky chapters, smear your opponent with lies and falsehoods. MCCAIN needs to fire back
WOW, I'm thrilled -- can't think of anyone better...... one day with him and she'll know more than all of the MSM and Demagogues put together (about what really matters). OK, she already DOES know more than all of the MSM and Demagogues put together about what really matters.... but she needs to maximize and perfect her verbal ammo before the debate.
Hope that also suggests that McCain may strongly consider Bolton for a top position..... Secy of State!! The libs would go crazy, though, and probably shut down the Senate. Then there's Joe Lieberman who can probably be expected to get either State or Defense, and most likely wants State. Who knows what will happen there, but I'm just delighted that John Bolton and Sarah Palin will be working together for awhile, at least.
Was there for 20 years..... Still have family there and we never want to go back. It’s too bad, the City has a lot to offer.
Pigs are particularly offensive to Muslims.
“Hugh Hewitt just said on his show that John Bolton has been assigned to Palin’s team. WOW!!!”
BRB!
What is amazing is how CNN, MSNBC, CBS, ABC etc. are giving this story a big push....NOT! Not one has any mention of this comment and thus the story. Unfreakenbelieveable!
At this point, I have to question his mental faculties.
I don't believe that any normal adult with ordinary cognition could have made the massive number of simple factual errors, such as his absurd geographical mistakes, that Senator "Coke-head" Obama has made over the last few months.
I was willing to grant him the benefit of the doubt with the first few blunders, but now with the utter confusion that he has displayed with "57 states", "New Pennsylvania", his absurd statement about the relative proximities of Kentucky, Illinois, and Arkansas, I think he clearly is not processing information in an ordinary manner. Further testament to some sort of mental confusion can be seen when in those times when he has completely lost his train of thought, such as this video at YouTube, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZxBX8sz3tO8.
For him now to engage in this type of disgusting bullying in front of a national audience demonstrates to me just how desperately unbalanced he must be.
To retain any political viability, I think Senator Clinton must immediately withdraw her support from the Obama campaign.
This is simply the politics of personal destruction with a touch of Chicago GUTTER POLITICS. Nothing new here at all.
Those are NOT the speechwriters I used to know...
Also, “Pig will find mud” and “Pig will find pig”
I dunno...he’s a dope.
I’m personally tired of listening to 40 years of Marxist crap. I wish Obama would stop retreading that busted balloon tire, and face reality.
Sara has FIVE, dude, and she is full energy. Wimp. Ha, ha!
