Lipstick on a Pig
By Lynnie Gal

It is appropriate that Palin refers to herself as a pitbull--an ugly, snarling, threatening animal. But we all know that the lipstick she talks about isn't on a pitbull. She is lipstick on a pig, the pig being the Republican party in general, John McBush in particular.

We've all heard the joke that Washington is Hollywood for ugly people. I get that. But we need to push back on the cynicism that McSame is pushing, knowing that signing on a sexy grandma will get white men to vote for him because they want to sleep with her. You know it's true!

Let's send out a steady stream of Democratic women on the news show circuit NOW, and capitalize on the fact that they can't send Palin out there because she KNOWS NOTHING. The repuklicans know that the hard questions the press will ask her are going to destroy her, and that's why they have to keep her locked in her dressing room All we will see are the sound bites from the solitary speech she gave that was written for her by a Bush speech writer, and the press will have to play them over and over and over ad nauceum until it gets drilled into the head of the common folk that she really is lipstick on a pig.

She was probably so proud when she heard that he used her line of attack on Palin.

[John Robie]

Unbelievable. This is a new kind of politics. I cannot recall a candidate ever using attack this personal.

[dragonblustar]

I wonder how long before they remove that from Obama’s site?

[snarkytart]

It was clear to everybody there, the PIG with lipstick was Palin, and the OLD FISH was McCain.
Nice, huh?

[John Robie]

This is a big mistake. They are already going down, but the could be it.

[John Robie]

I suppose it does not matter now.

[snarkytart]

We'll see, the media seem to be poo pooing it.

[ari-freedom]

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[John Robie]

They tried the same with all the other scandals also, but this things have a way of getting press. It will be in a lot of papers tomorrow.

[snarkytart]

True. I think it’s already on the front of the New York Post.
Rush and Sean will definitely talk about it.

This is gonna seriously hurt the Obama campaign. Irony is, I think he really is too thick to understand what he was saying. He was merely regurgitating what someone told him would be a cute line to throw out to his supporters.

The guy is just plain dumb - a man of presidential fiber with any political acumen would have said to his cronies - "are you kidding, I'm not saying that! Don't y'all see how that could be taken?". But instead dumbass throws out the derogatory line (and adds a old-man metaphor to boot) in his jive-turkey voice.

I hope it hurts him, because it was uncalled for. It was definitely meant as a personal insult, it was not about their agenda/issues.

THANK YOU FOR THIS!!! Great work!

[Caipirabob]

Spreading it so the world will see it...

[HowlinglyMind-BendingAbsurdity]

Not even original. With reflection, calculation, and forethought, deliberate.
PRE-PLANNED.

Some Obama staffer surfing passed it along.

[John Robie]

You should send it to McCain.
