"Well in that case, th' USA election has got me entirely stumped.  As far as I can see, one side is campaignin' on th' novelty o' a (half) black lubber sayin' vague thin's about change an' hope, while th' other side is campaignin' on th' novelty o' a wench who isn't even th' presidential candidate while sayin' vague thin's about...change!
Oho!

So thar is yer choice, change an'/or hope Vs change."

Its sad...  but it is th' reality...  an' even if ye watch debates they allways talk about change, tax cuts, war an' some foreign country,

Re: OBAMA, "When you put Lipstick on a Pig, its still a pig."

I am not upset with the terms usage, I believe Obama had used it in the same reference as McCain has used it in the past.



I am upset with his followers who took it in the context of an attack upon Palin, as seen by the applause. Obama needs to fund a womens conservative group 10 million for his followers actions imo, to make things right.

Everything bad in the economy is now Obama's fault. Every job lost, all the debt, all the lost retirement funds. All Obama. Are you happy now? We all get to blame Obama!

Re: OBAMA, "When you put Lipstick on a Pig, its still a pig."

yell, i know you'd like this a lot but not everything is about Palin

anyone who's stupid enough to think it is sexism after seeing the whole clip, shouldn't vote imo tongue wink

and so by what you're saying, or what i understood of it... the word "lipstick" now can not be used because it would be referring to Palin and oh that would be sexist now wouldn't it

the way i see it is, this is another christmas for democrats. just wait till people actually wake up and think "oh the McCain campaign is talking about lipstick, golly gosh they'll do great for this country"
this is playing right into Obama's hands, he's probably laughing it up right now, all he has to do is keep doing what he's doing, keep saying and prooving with these foolish statemenst from McCain that McCain doesn't want everyone talking about the issues, because he can't win on the issues, he can't win on his failed policies, he can't win cuz all his views, policies are the same policies and views of THE MOST unfavourable president in american HISTORY

this is great stuff, and great stuff for the debate aswell

Re: OBAMA, "When you put Lipstick on a Pig, its still a pig."

Im sure he meant t' turn th' auld lipstick thin' aroun'..., Dance the Hempen Jig

BUT....  t' be fair....


I didnt know that shortly after th' "Lip stick on a Pig" quote, he shortly after said that McCain's Politics is like an fish wrapped in News Paper opened a period o' time later.....It still stinks.



So, maybe...  just maybe....  th' Democrat Pres, Ya swabbie!  Nominee is actually out on th' attack dog track ??   Maybe because his VEEP is not up t' it ??

Re: OBAMA, "When you put Lipstick on a Pig, its still a pig."

The last McCain ad is just fantastic: with wolves roaming in alaska forest symbolizing the "army of lawyers to dig dirt" and the odd off voice stating "dropping in the poll... he'll try to DESTROY her" Stallone-style. Come on.

McCain strategists are high... I don't think this will work.

On the other hand, if Obama strategists don't get it that now is the time to counter-attack efficiently... Not sure the "quiet" rebuttal is enough.

Why is that?"



Generally lines like that garner applause.  When ye say this administration sucks an' our opponents suck because they're just like this administration....well, fer mobs...'tis a cheerable line big_smile  Haven't you noticed that people who go to rallies are whacked and cheer at the stupidest of things? I mean they'll cheer anything so long as it attacks the opposition or makes their party look good...regardless of whether it makes sense or not.  big_smile

Re: OBAMA, "When you put Lipstick on a Pig, its still a pig."

Err...I honestly dern't know what ye're talkin' about.  Load the cannons, I'll warrant ye!  Both Obama's index finger an' middle finger be extended (his middle more than his index).  From that camera angle, th' middle finger covers th' index finger so ye can't see it, but as he pulls his han' away ye can. If he had been giving her the finger: A] It would have had to have been deliberate (highly unlikely) and b) His index finger (and other fingers) would need to be down...which wasn't the case.


That's th' problem with America.  You're so partisan that it blinds ye t' what's really goin' on an' everythin' becomes about how so-an'-so moved his finger because it might constitute an insult t' yer point o' view instead o' about th' actual issues that affect how ye live.

you forget we are the country that invented "read between the lines" and "look into my eye"

i think it HIGHLY LIKELY and it shows a pattern Barack takes with Enemy #1 of the moment that he continued wtih Palin

I saw a clip of McCain using the same expression (not sure if it was recently or in the past some time).

Re: OBAMA, "When you put Lipstick on a Pig, its still a pig."

yeah, and if McCain just happened to say "that's the pot calling the kettle black" what would happen?

Re: OBAMA, "When you put Lipstick on a Pig, its still a pig."

I dunno.

I was just making an observation.

And frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.

Re: OBAMA, "When you put Lipstick on a Pig, its still a pig."

Yell, you're pushing your partisanship a bit far I think.

Obviously if McCain had used such an expression, it would be an uproar among black communities, the leftist media would have a field day, etc.

That's not the point here. Obama would not have followed it, just as he did not follow the Palin smear, nor anything that could damage him. If only because going the "racist" way would present him too much as a black man trying to make a point for afro-americans, and he knows it would do serious damage among the white voters he needs.

The point here is that the McCain campaign is trying to say he did a sexist attack, and does everything it can to link him to the smear. It is just groundless.

I think there are much more interesting things to attack him on and that this strategy is weak and unfair. I mean when even BW acknowledges tongue

Just my 2 cents though.

Re: OBAMA, "When you put Lipstick on a Pig, its still a pig."

it is the point, knowing what would happen, McCain will not use it.  Obama knew what would happen and used it.  Check the tape.  The tape of the incident is the grounds for saying it.

and nobody thinks BW is infallible, he chooses to live in NY

and I'm not partisan because I don't like either party, too namby pamby
