Lipstick, Pitbulls, Pigs… and a Fish

by: Alegre

Wed Sep 10, 2008 at 16:00:00 PM EDT


I don't need to replay everything related to BHO's ill-advised comments and hand-gesture on Saturday.  George Harris, of the Kansas City Star has a very interesting take on Lipstick-on-a-pig-Gate...

Lipstick, pitbulls, pigs...and a fish

Whatever. The uproar made me wonder when the pigs, pit bulls and fish are gonna take offense.
...

"Now you've crossed the line, Porky. I know a pit bull with five kids, and people are standing in line to get to see her."

"Oh yeah?"
"Yeah, Fishface."
"Don't call me Fishface! Unless you mean like a dolphin 'cause they're cute. And don't mix your metaphors."
"You probably mean don't confound the similes, you illiterate slime dog."
"Well, lipstick on your collar tells a tale on you."
"Huh? What does that mean?"
"If you can't figure that out, you're dumb as a post."
"Don't you dare call me a post."
"Oh, never mind."

And this is what we call political discourse.

Go read the whole column - it's hilarious!

For the first time in this whole train wreck, I'm really enjoying it. (0.00 / 0)
Animal rights is really important to me, and it is about time someone addresses it.  I don't think they should be putting lipstick on an animal at all. Especially not fish.

Or using them to gain political advantage. (0.00 / 0)

Thanks for the fun post! (0.00 / 0)

On a more serious note, Roger Simon may be a candidate for the next Tweety.  He was just on a cable news show saying that Hillary should have been on every show today defending Obama on the lipstick thing!  Homestly! And he was absolutely serious.  He kept asking "Where's Hillary?" "Where's Hillary when you need her?"

Give me a break!

What are people thinking? Some men, too many men, really don't get it.

she did defend him (0.00 / 0)
she said it wasn't sexist. It isn't, it's folksy, he didn't see it coming. If anything the fish one was the one he meant to say. If he's that crude.  which I suppose he is, but no one is calling him on that.  also, you can only use one finger to shoot the bird.  She's not going to scratch Sarah's eyes out, that's what they want to see.  I think this guy's a winner, in the blame Hillary for not fixing things so Barack's honor isn't impugned by making herself unattractive to foster Barack love.  Remember when Bill failed to add Barack when he was speaking for Hillary and said she was patriotic like John, to a bunch of John-lovers? And he was supposedly well aware he was calling into question Barack's patriotism?  I've said it before and I'll say it again, irony is not dead.  

Hillary - alternative energy

exactly. (0.00 / 0)

 she did defend him, but that wasn't enough for Roger.  He wanted her on every cable show in strong attack mode.  Guess he wants a cat fight.

 I don't think he even deserves minimal defense for his stupid remark.

Let his VP do the dirty work of covering BO's behind.
