STERLING, Virginia (CNN) – Firing up supporters at a women’s rally with Joe Biden in Virginia Friday, Sen. Barbara Mikulski told the crowd, “Democratic women, we wear lipstick too!” referring to Sarah Palin’s now-famous joke that the difference between a pitbull and a hockey mom is lipstick.
“You and I know that we women in America are mad as hell and we don’t want to take it anymore,” the spirited Maryland senator said. “I’m here today to say to you, we’ve got to get ready here, ok? Women, square your shoulders. Women, Democratic women, we wear lipstick too!”
“We don’t need another George Bush in earrings being the No. 2 spot,” Mikulski added.
Taking the stage, Biden thanked Mikulski, saying “They asked me could I handle Sarah Palin? I said, 'try debating Barbara Mikulski!'”
The Delaware senator focused his remarks on women's issues, saying that demographic is the most affected in an economic downturn.
“We're going to change that because here's the deal, we've got to restore both the protections and the dignity,” said Biden, “Because when the economy goes south, it's women who go, whether they're making minimum wage or working for a major corporation.”

When does the buffet open?
Boy does she need it. She would be better looking with a mask on!
I'm Senator Mikulski and I approved this message!!
If she has children, someone used a flag.
“Democratic women, we wear lipstick too!”
Oh I’m not even gonna go there. It’s too easy. Just too freakin’ easy. :)
Whoa! Another nasty hit by one of the most repulsive creatures in Washington, Mikulski! She says Palin is “George Bush in earrings?” Will this idiocy never end?
The question I keep asking myself is why are the deranged Dems so upset about Palin? Especially the so-called female Dems. Let them worry about their OWN candidate. They had no plans to vote for ours anyway.
I conclude that it’s fear, envy, jealousy and resentment against Palin all rolled into one. There is something very wrong with these people and they need psychological help, now.
You nailed that one on the head Tax-chick...
Take Helen Thomas...
Please!!!!
Amen to that. That is exactly correct. Ugliness manifests itself on one’s face. We have all seen that a lot lately.
Her “comeback” doesn’t even make sense. Oh, silly me, I forgot for a moment. I’m trying to understand an anti-American liberal.
I suppose, if Helen Thomas showed up on my doorstep, I would have to offer her a glass of lemonade, a muffin, and a prayer card. But I’d wrap the snake around my shoulders first to keep her from getting too close!
On the other hand, that might give poor Susan a conniption!
lol!!!!!!!
We hear this from Rush all the time when he talks about Liberals!
Bad Economic times, WOMEN AND MINORITIES HURT THE MOST!
Dignity? You, who along with your partner Obama and all your surrogates, have failed to protect and have destroyed the dignity of Bristol Palin, a girl, and who have slandered and attempted to debase every aspect of Governor Palin's very existence. YOU want to restore the protections and the dignity of women, Senator Biden? You are full of garbage. Keep your stupid minimum wage "dignity". It's cheap and meaningless when you act as you have toward a woman seeking high office.
This calls for an anti-dote:
Or
I hope that is a little better.
Don't do that again. Please.
Oh, yes. “Plain” can be the face you’re born with, but “ugly” comes from inside. For example, compare Laura Bush to any Democrat women.
It does make you wonder what their focus group testing was telling them when as a result they sent out the word to Democrats like these to get out and get in the faces of Republicans...
