		<description>Who&#039;s the more ignorant?  The person who holds the discussion when it is relevant or the idiot who decides to chime in nearly THREE MONTHS after the fact and is potty-mouthed to-boot.  Hmmm.</description>

		<description>I listened to what Senator Obama said, in context. I don&#039;t believe he called Governor Palin a pig. The expression he used is as old as dirt. I think the cry for outrage is calculated and contrived - and rather lame at best.

This having been said, I would not vote for Barack Obama even if his was the only name on the ballot.

I just feel we have plenty of reasonable arguments to make based on the substance of Senator Obama&#039;s policies, resume, and voting record (or lack there of). Why waste time on this non-story?</description>

		<description>Obama knew there would be a connection. Perhaps he was testing boundaries with &quot;Plausible Deniability&quot;. I&#039;m very disappointed that Sen. Obama would stoop to such a low class attack.

He can attack her on issues or for attacking him on unreasonably. Just as Palin is doing. For example, Palin would not have been able to attacking Obama&#039;s record as being a community organizer(an admirable thing) had she not been attacked for her &quot;lack&quot; of experience and the percieved slight toward &quot;small town America&quot;. (clinging to religion and guns etc. etc.)

Their polling data should show that gratuitous insults, to include ones with plausible deniability, end up being a loss for his campaign rather than being effective damage to McCain&#039;s campaign.

I&#039;m telling you now, I can&#039;t stand McLiberal. I fear his election will in effect be rewarding &#039;Borrow &amp; Spend&#039; tactics used by Bush. I&#039;ll tell you I LOVED Bush during his first term but, can&#039;t wait for his departure now. I disagree with Obama on many issues but, recognize change for changes sake would be a good thing at this point and also I think Obama as president would offer healing to old wounds of the past. I do REALLY like Palin. She is a big plus. Also, I&#039;d like to see two mavericks try to get along in the White House.

I am seriously undecided. I could vote McCain, Obama, or Barr. Honestly. I see positives and negatives on all sides. Obama just erected another negative. Although it is a negative that could easily evaporate should the remainder of the campaign be dedicated to the issues and issue oriented jabs. 

The race looks like it could be a tight one now. The fance sitters might end up being moved based on who self-destructs and who performs with class.</description>

		<description>OF COURSE HE DID! Made two analogies, one for each.  It is plain as day! What? You don’t think he heard her line of “lipstick on a bulldog?” It only played on every news station in the country 100 times! He even went on to make a second analogy obviously aimed at McCain about his age how his policies would be the same as those for the last 8 years comparing him to an “old” (smelly?)fish. How in the heck could you NOT conclude he was speaking about his two opponents? How? HOW? Be honest with yourselves. Of course the two analogies were aimed at his two political opponents. Of course they were!</description>

		<description>Sorry about my earlier comment (sort of), I&#039;m really going to try to make it more politically correct by saying that if he (Bareack) has to resort to these kind of comments that they are getting pretty desperate, do you all remember  the torments of gradeschool?</description>

		<description>Jeremy,
1) You are being much too literal.  Lipstick is the connector.  By using lipstick he is able to call her a pig and then plausibly deny it, or use logic, analogies, his law degree, etc. to claim he was misunderstood.

Palin called herself a fierce dog with lipstick.  Obama disagreed with her and used lipstick to call her a pig.  And coincidentally what kind of pig would wear lipstick? A female pig or a sow.

And I’m not the only idiot; the audience seemed to catch the insult clearly enough.

Insult a foreign dignitary (or your wife), and I don’t think logic is going to be enough to smooth hurt emotions (I know, I’ve tried it).  Cos when we are angry, we human beings are oh, so logical. 

2) But if we were to use pure logic, McCain of course is the pig, and Palin is the lipstick.  Before Palin, McCain was W’s third term.  Add Palin—the lipstick—which makes McCain pretty and energizes his campaign, and you still have a pig—AKA W3.  Palin is actually the fish (isn’t her husband a fisherman) who is wrapping herself in the change mantra, and she still stinks.  Sounds like a case of sexual harassment there!

You are right Jeremy, if you look at them logically his comments appear SO MUCH BETTER!!

3) I wish the general public was as logical as you are, cos if it was there is no way Obama would be the Democratic nominee for President.  He is clearly the most experienced, intelligent, knowledgeable, ideological Democrat who vied for the nomination.  That’s sarcasm; you may want to look it up.  

Obama’s campaign is and always has run on emotion. Which I am for by the way. It is nice to see people fired up and interested in Presidential politics.  But there should be a balance.

Frenchy, it’s called balance.  Whenever W’s says something moronic, it is shouted from the mountaintop by the media and left wingers.  But Obama says something moronic, and it’s explained away.  Sounds fair.  As far as worst gaffe, I kinda like it when he campaigned in more than 50 states.</description>

		<description>So basically what you&#039;re saying is, Sara Palin has a copyright on &quot;Lipstick&quot;.  

Any use of said word is solely owned by her.

Wow.

For a guy who&#039;s been making non-stop speaches for the last year and a half and this is the worst gafe he&#039;s made makes me think that America wouldn&#039;t have too much to worry about.

Unlike our current president who can barely speak with out sounding like a complete moron.</description>
