So why is lipstick on a pig so much worse than lipstick on a pit bull? |
|
I'm still trying to wrap my mind around this - Sarah Palin describes HERSELF as a pit bull in lipstick. That's "spunky."
Barack Obama describes McCain's policies as putting lipstick on a pig - that's sexist and demeaning.
:wtf:
I swear, if I keep trying to make sense of right wing hyperbole, I'll end up crazier than I already am.

But I still get amazed that they seem to think no one will notice that a couple of days before, she pretty much used the same phrase about herself.
Oh, and I'm not a dude. :hi:

2. They're trying to say Obama meant Palin was the pig in the reference |

which she was not even part of the Obama statement. He later said that if she where part of the comment she would have been part of the lipstick and not the pig, as the pig referred to policies.
McCain used the same analogy about Clinton's health care plan back in May, so the fake outrage is even more disgusting and stupid.

6. The pitbull image resonates because of Santorium's whole "man-dog love" thing |
|
Therefore it subliminally brings back the whole gay marriage is bad thing for their base. No doubt, Karl Rove is behind this. :tinfoilhat:
:spray:
