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."

Lets see add that to the sweetie comment and the time he was flipping-off Hillary in a speech. Speaking of Herself... I wonder what her unguarded first reaction to this was?

Its torture to hear him talk. Im starting to think his first language is Arabic....
I am so used to muting him on TV that I actually listened to him speak tonight...cringing the entire time. What a thug!

Pppffffttt...Huckster is useless. He put it in context- which was fine- but as Hannity pointed out- look at the way the audience reacted- they knew EXACLTY what he meant.
Meltdown..he looks awful.

If I remember my schoolyard taunts, McCain will call Obama a belly itcher and Amtrak Joe will return with the rubber and glue response.
To: PennsylvaniaMom
Freakin’ A...they won’t touch it because how hot this subject is. They don’t know how to handle it because guys have never had to defend this crap in the political arena.
It’s going to take someone like Ann Coulter or Michelle Melkin to deal with this because the males are clueless on this stupid crap that women have had to put up with since
h Christ was a corporal.
Why won’t the media show the whole thing? They don’t know how to deal with it...

Hes little more than a bad stand-up comic playing to the room. I made the same observation yesterday after hearing a clip of his last whistle stop "speech".

Note to budding political cartoonists:
Draw a picture of Obama grimacing with a giant lipstick protruding from his backside.
Show Biden saying “I think you are supposed to use it on the other end.”

At the top of Drudge, they already are. Did you look at his hits just in the past 24 hours? Tomorrow this will be the 'bomb'. Where can you see the stats on his daily hits?
Does he publicize them?
Or are you talking about something like Alexa?

Speaking of bitter — the crowd cheered BO on with that ‘pig’ crack. I think that cheering crowd speaks louder than BO himself. Did any of them ‘faint’, I wonder? A joke like that could have inspired a few fainters I would think. / sarc

Because, as a woman myself, I find the lipstick-pig-fishy smell trully offensive. Dont the men understand that?It was a very NUANCED attack.
That's why the MSM will try to ignore--as it reeked with loads of NUANCE....lol
Actually, the NUANCE angle will give Hussein 'plausible deniability' (where have we heard that before...lol),,,
and the MSM will back him up on that! Just ask Andrea Mitchell--Hussein's comments are always so NUANCED--only the liberal, elitist left is qualified to interpret his comments for the rest of us. /s

Mike Suckabee is on Hannity & Colmes right now saying we should cut Obama some slack, that it wasnt a reference to Palin.Huckabee is done - THANK GOD! He got a payoff - a gig on Fox. But make no mistake, he has no future in national politics. This is just another example. Just like the attack ad he claimed he would not air and then moments later proceeds to show a room full of press folks the very ad. For me that dishonest Iowa press conference was enough for me to not even consider Huckabee.
