'Ridiculous'
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 09/10/2008 6:57:43 AM PDT by governsleastgovernsbest

We now know the official Obama talking point on Lipstick-gate.

In the course of her Morning Joe appearance today, Obama spokeswoman Linda Douglass used the word "ridiculous" no fewer than six times to dismiss the controversy that has arisen since Obama said yesterday that you can put lipstick on a pig but it's still a pig.

This ridiculous woman and her husband were big Web Hubbell pals back in the day when Hubbell was under OIC investigation; her husband giving Hubbell 'jobs' to make ends meet and taking the Hubbell family on a trip to Greece.

It doesn't matter what Obambi meant; it matters how his audience took it.

McCain is running such a 'civil and gentlemanly' campaign--that he won't even allow his supporters to use the "H" word (shhhhh,,,,,Hussein)....

while Hussein stoops to ugly personal attacks,,,,

taking the gutter POLITICS OF PERSONAL DESTRUCTION to a new level.

No one practices gutter politics like that better than Chicago politicians. No one.

I guess I watch too many crime dramas:

I’m imagining Obama being offered a plea deal.

“You realize that you’ve been charged with sexism, a very serious offense in the political arena. We’re willing to let you plead guilty instead to the lesser charge of rhetorical stupidity. It’s a good deal, I suggest you take it.”

Of course, rhetorical genius was supposed to be Obama’s strong suit. Hmmm. . .

I think that McCAin needs to say something like, “Its the pot calling the kettle black!” and see how fast obama and his staff in the MSM jump all over it!

Reference Hussein's 'phony outrage' at the uproar over his lipstick/pig insult,,,,

Given Sarah Palin's repeated use of 'lipstick' as humor and as a visual prop for her campaign,,,,,

only a complete idiot would believe that his use of lipstick/pig was JUST A COINCIDENCE!!
