Actually, I think the McCain campaign’s outrage *is* ersatz. However the outrage from ordinary Americans, esp. the PUMAs is quite genuine. Surely the McCain campaign recognizes that Obama wasn’t actually attacking Palin as a ‘pig’, but trying to be too clever by half, and as so often happens when someone tries to be too clever, falling flat.
If Obama were smart, he’d have avoided the ‘lipstick on a pig’ metaphor. It seem’s Obama isn’t smart. How much affirmative action was involved in his Harvard admission?
Is there anything Obama-related that is not phony? Anything at all?

Obama is just sore because he got out-phony outraged.
This from the guy who stated McCain’s ad criticizing him on energy was racist. The guy who used the phrase “typical white person”, etc.
Could that be why he couldn't win primary elections against Hillary???
Hey Hussein - YOU ARE THE PHONEY? Tell us who you REALLY are.
If Barry is an expert on anything, it is phony ness.
It’s a Democrat talking point. It’s not a coincidence that so many Democrats and their fellow Democrats in the media are repeating it.
While the reaction to the lipstick on a pig comment may be overblown, Obama’s use of the phrase was very obviously a jibe at Palin. He paused for the laugh because he knew his crowd caught the reference. The big difference between Obama’s use of this phrase and McCain’s use of the phrase is that McCain never had a political opponent who had recently made a lipstick reference to herself in a highly publicized high profile speech within the previous week.
careful now ...

“Obamas phony insults are an outrage.”
Obama’s phony denials are laughable, and don’t put him in a good light.
What would the Obama/MSM reaction be if McCain were to use an innocent phrase like “call a spade a spade” in a speech?
LLS
Obama is the true pig, though I bet he has never eaten pork.
It amazes me that some of the American people believe in him.
Let me be juvenile and just say YUCH!!!!
Never forget my friends, but with jerk, if does win, which I doubt, Sep 11 wil be attempted to be dismissed from the American minds.
NEVER FORGET~~~~~~
I’m surprised no one has tied Obama’s lipstick comment to dissing the hockey moms, and by projection, soccer moms and maybe all moms.
