I disagree. Sarah got in a lot of good one-liners that were clean and funny. The lipstick/pig joke was tasteless and was name calling.....for nothing. Add the stinky fish joke and that’s a double shot at our lady. I do not buy that Obama, who has spent plenty of time on the streets of Chicago did not KNOW how offensive those remarks were. He is just surprised that WE understand exactly what he meant and are sick of his style politicing. The remarks were crass and uninspired.

Speaking of his delivery... I watched his presser and the man could NOT say two words without looking at his script. He read the WHOLE time. And when he glanced away from his notes, he actually look scared. This guy can not speak extemporaneously at all. The debates should be a hoot. Look for the “Wizard of Uhhhhhhs” to have his butt kicked!

Sorry to say, but the left has been very successful in defining exactly what the Swift Boat ads were. And this should be corrected fast, or it is going to do damage. Maybe a Fox or CNN (ha!) special report recalling the 2004 campaign advertising episode and examining just what the Swift Boat ads were.
The first one, as I recall, was the testimony of the 3 other Swift Boat pilots on the river that day in Vietnam with John Kerry, and they had a different recollection of events than Kerry did. Question their version, if you like - but it was not a “lie” or “misrepresentation.” And the second ad was all about Kerry’s videotaped testimony before a congressional committee on the supposed “war crimes” committed by US soldiers in Vietnam. Again, his own words!!
This needs to be cleared up.

“What a condescending prick”
Now that is a great quote. Thanks for sharing what I’m sure is your honest thoughts.. And, a statement of fact...he is a condescending prick !!
To: flyfree
Made up story and all the fact remains that SHOULD Obama be elected POS that world wars have been started with a single mistaken word spoken.
Anyone without the common sense to think first and speak later has no business being in command of the nuclear arsenal of the US!

It would have more impact if it was brief and sincere. He again missed an opportunity. IMO, he came across as arrogant and snide.

Obama just can't help himself. As his campaign searches for an effective way to counter Palin, he just keeps on stepping in it.
Every lost day for Obama, is a day closer to losing the election. This is about the 12th or 13th lost day in a row for his campaign. Usually great Democrat fodder such as unemployment went up last week, was barely mentioned by the media. Instead they are questioning whether or not Obama meant to call Palin a pig.

I do not buy that Obama, who has spent plenty of time on the streets of Chicago did not KNOW how offensive those remarks were.He knew. And so did his audience. I saw the video again this morning. The audience instantly knew that Obama was making reference to Palin's lipstick joke. Now the guy holds a press conference in which he can't even own up to his own remark.

When my daughter was about 4, she had two stuffed pigs. We named them Link and Patty.

Why oh why did they have to make a stupid ad.
To goad Obama into saying or doing something really stupid, and to remind Hillary supporters inclined to give Barry the benefit of the doubt why they didn't vote for him in the first place.

I'm voting for McCain because of Palin and because I still believe he is the lessor of two evils. But let us never forget how McCain slimmed the Swifties..For that, I will never ever forgive him.

Oh yea. we hadn’t notice that your campaign has been sliming Sarah. Calling her a pig is one of the nicer things you’ve said.

They're actually protecting him! But for someone with no class, its always about him. What the Messiah wants, he gets!

He could have composed a much bette statement. But I think he thinks he’s “cool”. I don’t want a cool president, I want a competent president.

Uh, ok. 55 days before the election, I'm sure Obama really wanted to spend the day lashing out at the press.
