The bad news: idiots all over America will read this and think it matters.
They will ignore McCain's record and his 90% pro-Bush voting recor and again, stupid voters will vote against their own best interest.
The good news: the GOP hate machine is a brilliant organism. It keeps the conversation diverted from what really matters and focused on trivial, stupid side-shows.
What matters? John McCain is 90% like George W. Bush.
Anything else is a skillful diversion. And that's probably why you people will win.
It's pure GOP, Lee Atwater, Karl Rove technique. And while it is brilliant and effective, it will ultimately destroy our country. |
|
The new PC police.
They are scrambling to abandon every principle they've ever had; first, they fall in love with a tax-hiking, big spending, earmark-loving Governor. Now they are quivering for anticipation at every offhand comment they can shriek offense about.
Do you want to play this game? Will republicans be considered racist every time they say 'black hole' or 'blacklist'?
you are truly pathetic people. |
|
|
You're right, that's what it comes down to. They are desperate to do anything to avoid talking about issues. Look at Palin! Supporters talk about how she makes them feel--they get irritated if you even refer to anything about her record. |
|
You liberals on this post - last time I checked Palin has an +80% approval rating in Alaska. That makes her the most popular governor in the country. Go ahead and try to attack her record. You will end up losing like you are now losing this Presidential election!
You can start calling you false messiah Barack Hussein Obama Dukakis! He is going to lose the one election you liberals thought under any circumstance you would win!

Jess: Let's imagine that you are right
and that Obama didn't mean to sound like he was calling Sarah Palin a pig. Just how does Barak expect to carry on diplomacy with the perpetually P.O.ed Islamists, if he lets offensive words slip accidently? Can you imagine if he had made that same statement about the President of Iran, say, especially if they manage to build a nuclear bomb under his nose? This is just one more example of Obama's immaturity and lack of judgement

What is worse? Pig or Macaca?
Why does using the word "macaca" disqualify Senator George Allen from running for President, and using the word "pig" does not disqualify Barak Obama? Both men claim that is was a slip. We all tried to point out that the use of the word was innocent on the part of Senator Allen, but the wild jackels on the left wouldn't let it go. Senator Allen probably didn't know it was an insult, or he wouldn't have used it, but Lefties have proven time and again that they have no tolerance, kindness and mercy over and over. Sauce for the goose, sauce for the gander.

you are so full of it, you need one. |
|
Camilia Paglia is the first. Read her article today. She is essentially accepting Governor Palin and turning on the elite media. Gently, but turning.
The Obamatanic has its first two compartments flooded. Three more to go.
http://www.obamaresearch.com while there is still time to get some of these into the hands of your misguided friends, relatives, and countrymen. |
|
Your talking points need to be updated; not just 'cuz they're wrong, but because they're old. Palin/McCain are going around the country talking issues, drawing contrasts, and solidifying the political middle, and you're still trash talking debunked talking points. The Palin campaign is so far ahead strategically that it is starting to get embarrassing...and it's only been a week and a half.
My advice is to start up the "world wants me" talking point again, and point to the poling in Jakarta and Istanbul. Maybe do another Eurotrash tour.
It's slip sliding away...and you know it. |
|
Hugh,
Thanks for you program and especially this week with you only taking first-time female callers. It has been great to hear their reactions to Palin and the attacks made upon her. Ordinary Americans have no doubt about the message of Obama in his lipstick comments. It's is obvious as the Obama's audience showed. Only the intelligentsia or Democrats doubt Obama's intent or the statement's impact on the election. Even James Lileks, whom I love, admitted not seeing what the big deal was. Lipstickgate might be a defining moment in the campaign as it clearly shows that Obama is petty, vindictive, self-absorbed, and definitely not the harbinger of a new type of politics. Change for him just means a Democrat, big government take over of DC to accomplish more of what has made a mess of this country's economy: elitist special interests at the expense of the interests of the ordinary American. |
|
you guys are stupid for falling for this crap...
give me a break...
Hugh, please... |
|
It has been down hill for Obama ever since he went to Berlin and gave that speech.
If the Democrats lose this one - which it looks like they are going to - Zell Miller will be correct in saying in 2004 "A National Party No More!"
In 2012 red states will pick up about 7 and possibly 9 more electoral votes! |
|
|
Looks like the intense coverage on all the of Obama's excellent speach in Norfolk, VA just smeared the egg all over the McCain campaign's face (or should I say snout??). Way to turn the tables on these hollow idiots Barack!!! The McCain camp will be reeling from this attack! Same old dumbed down politics from the failures in charge!! |
|
I see the little gears, powered by a gerbil on a little wheel, inside the cage that is your Leftie Loser brain.
You are already making up more lies about conservatives, that you can pass around to your Leftie Loser buddies, so you can all hogg the lines at CSPAN American Journal, and rant until everybody turns off their sets. |
|
|
|
I can tell by some of the liberal posts on this blog - you guys are getting more and more desperate everyday! Obama has run a TERRIBLE campaign!
His first big mistake was delivering that speech in Berlin. Then the liberals and the media tried to say Sarah Palin was not capable of being Vice President and/or President, and the attacks back fired BIG TIME! Then Sarah Palin CRUSHED him during her speech at the RNC. She made Obama look to be a complete fool! Now Obama calls an attractive very popular governor and the most popular candidate running for either President or Vice President a "pig!"
As I have posted before - this election has gone from the one the Democrats could not lose to the one the Democrats will lose. What are you liberals going to do in 2012 when red state pick up 7-9 more electoral votes?
You can start calling your false messiah - Barack Hussein Obama Dukakis!
|

does distract us from remembering how much more
we pay now for food and gas, higher unemployment,
banks failing, government takeovers, living off
credit cards, Osama Bin Laden still not killed,
and all those unimportant facts.
This is all about plastic flags and lipstick!
Heckuva job Hugh. John McCain is definitely
not putting his campaign and ambition first.
Yes, sign me up for 4 more years... |
|
yup, we have a new celebrity Messiah now!
|
|
I think you are dead wrong here, and I am a McCain / Palin supporter.
Obama stepped in it with his poor judgement of statement, but it wasn't malicious. The commercial takes it too far by playing victim, when doing so is completely uneccessary. Furthermore, McCain would look much better to have made a quick statement about it and have returned to talking about the issues. That would have been impressive. This is childish and looks like a silly attempt to grasp at his opponent's stupidity. He would have gained from that already, more so if he had talked about the issues. |
|
Randy - I have not idea what you do for a living. I have a feeling you do nothing but sit in your dorm room and smoke pot all day.
However, I hope you become a Democratic strategist! If you think calling an attractive very popular governor and the most popular candidate running for either President or Vice President a "pig" is a good idea and a home run speech - your candidates will lose EVERY election!
I work as a trader - and the one token liberal and the foreigners on our desk even think Obama made perhaps the dumbest comment they have ever heard!
Scott - we conservatives have a messiah - his name is Jesus! |
|
|
I'm voting for McCain/Palin, but I don't buy the "lipstick on a pig" comment as definitely being a purposeful swipe at Palin as a pig. All this attention to this comment makes us look petty and willing to convict on scant evidence. It would be better to move on, be the bigger persons, and give the benefit of the doubt in this matter. There are many, many other things more suited to showing that we have the better ticket. |
|
believe it or not - most Democrats and Independents
feel the same way... |
|
Obama can't help it. He has to have a sheet of paper in front of him before he speaks.
The man must be lead my the nose or his mouth gets him into trouble!
Notice that no-one is talking about them homes he and Rezco had built for the poor, which are so bad people can't live in them.
It's called SLUM LORD. yep Obama cares! |
|
Hugh,
As a Republican it sure is fun to go "hog wild" over Obama's statement. As hard as the Dems try they'll never be able to make a sow's ear out of a leather purse.
|
|
Why if Obama wants to debate "the issues" he has an army of his attorneys parachuting into Anchorage like special forces on Tora-Bora?
I guess they are looking for "the issues."
Is that double-speak or what?
And this coming from the guy that while playing elections Pokemon with the Clintons pulled out the race card!?
Second; every four years the Democrats want to talk about turning the federal Government into Santa, like if character and credibility did not matter.
George Bush was elected to give "prescription drugs to seniors" but he ended up fighting two wars. Rarely, the next four years unfold like we planned, and that is why; judgement, and experience, and character is what most matter. Not, whatever "vote for Pedro" plan Nobama may say he has. |
|
|
Not about issues at all. What about McSame's use of the same phrase months ago in relation to Hillary Clinton's health care plan? Where was the phony outrage then? This is just another Rove diversion and Hugh falls in line with the rest of them. Those of you making a big deal out of this non-issue are no better than that pack of sheep following the head sheep dog off a cliff! |
|
|
The B-Rock and Slow Joe Express just keeps on gaffe'n along. |
|
Hugh - seriously, I'm as big a supporter of McCain / Palin as you get. The lipstick on a pig comment is an established saying, and a quick google search will turn that up in a ton of instances.
A stupid choice of words on Obama's part? Certainly. The guy is a moronic empty suit. Of course media and others would jump on that comment, and for Obama not to instictively know that and for him not remove that from his toolbox betrays his naiveté, but I can't see this as a deliberate malicious attack on Palin.
The smarter move for the McCain campaign is to let the media play that up and for them to stay out of it and quit putting out ads that play Palin as the victim. |
|
...Joe needed a seven-second delay wired in to prevent him from saying something stupid. Now it looks like both halves of that ticket need one.
Senator, it really is not that difficult. The best way to avoid wasting time defending stupid gaffes is to avoid making them in the first place. Failing that, you say, "Hey, I didn't mean it maliciously, but it was a stupid and thoughtless thing for me to say, and I apologize to Governor Palin," and you're done. Blaming your opponents and the press is weak. Very weak. The McCain campaign and the press wouldn't have it to talk about if you hadn't said it. |
|
A comment such as this can only be taken one of two ways; first, it was the lowest of cheapshots taken by a candidate for President, or second, It was the dumbest mistake made yet by the Obama campain. So which is he, dumb or disgusting?
Please tell me that this is not the best that the Dems could offer. |
|
Flag Mumon for her nonsense rumor mongering and let her
Go back to her KosKave.
Scott's no more a Republican than I am a Maoist. |
|
|
|
Dumb. He has always been an non-successful empty suit, hey BUT HE GAVE A GOOD SPEECH!!! As I have said all along DemocRats will regret not picking Billary.
They knew how to campaign with slash and burn success...they would have made Sarah Palin into Paula Jones patties for breakfast.What a sweet turnaround. |
|
Because nobody could possibly think Sarah Palin is a pig.
She is a cutie pie!
But did she refer to Obama as Sambo?
That's not very nice. |
|
|
|
I'm not a republican any more. Unplugged from
The Matrix... Too embarrassed by what the party
has become. I've already posted that before...
I'm still trying to figure out how you get from:
------------------------------------------------
“John McCain says he’s about change, too — except for economic policy, health care policy, tax policy, education policy, foreign policy and Karl Rove-style politics. That’s just calling the same thing something different.”
With a laugh, he added: “You can put lipstick on a pig; it’s still a pig. You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called change; it’s still going to stink after eight years.”
-------------------------------------------------
to "Sarah Palin is a pig"...
that just defies common sense.
|
|
but I already posted that before. I'm not a repub
any more. too embarrassed by what the party has
become and registered indy. this is just shameful
what it's turned into and who is running it now. |
|
|
Well as we write, Dennis Prager is defending BO and his comments. Well, let us say then that all the Kos, Moveon, all the 527 filthy, evil, slurs, lies about Sarah , W, and other GOP interests should be defended too Dennis. Of course, we should not do that. Those rats have smeared , lied, and maliciously made untrue statements daily about Sarah, John and anything which does not bow down to the Messiah! |
|
another flock of obvious astroturfers.
Scott, Doug, Fitzwdarcey- welcome, we look forward to reading your phony and laughable drivel.
But first, let's consider the deranged shrieks of animule girl:
"The bad news: idiots all over America will read this and think it matters."
Interesting strategy- calling potential voters idiots. It's just this sort of whipsmart strategery that has won you the White House so many times...oh, wait a minute...
"They will ignore McCain's record and his 90% pro-Bush voting recor and again, stupid voters will vote against their own best interest."
Again with the stupid cracks. I suppose it's you and your ilk that is best qualified to know what our "best interests" are? Elitist much?
Funny- I don't recall you talking about O'zero and his 97% pro-liberal voting record. Why is that?
Scott the astroturfer sez:
"you guys are stupid for falling for this crap...
give me a break..."
What a well reasoned argument, I see your uh, point.
"What happened to my old party?"
Your old party nominated an empty suit to run for president, that's what. Now run along, fauxbot.
mumuron, our most persistent obamadweeb sez:
"..it's because Sarah Palin *IS* the lipstick on the corrupt, wallowing in its own excrement that IS today's repub party."
Yes, and you're a yukky poopoo head. Go have your milk and nilla wafers, then it's nap time for you lil' fella.
"ALSO, besides pro-child molesting McCain
We find out that Sarah Palin is a child abuser.
I guess the lipstick's comin' off."
Nice work on the psychotic, unsubstantiated hooting. Guess the sanity's comin' off, eh drooler?
Our newest astroturfer Doug sez:
"Hugh - seriously, I'm as big a supporter of McCain / Palin as you get."
Of course you are, of course you are.
That'll do pinhead, that'll do.
|
|
"But did she refer to Obama as Sambo?"
I dunno...got any cites to back this accusation?
|
|
Keep telling yourself that, seriously.
I've just been to a score of puma sites, and they don't seem to share your opinion re: this "genius" move. And last I checked, they are pretty much all Democrats.
Yeah, McCain is the fool and Obama scores big.
Is the sky blue in the world you live in?
|
|
i'll hang out just to stir up the pot, just for u. |
|
|
. . . okay, not sure I'm likin' the ad. Loved Obama's big gaffe yesterday, but I'm thinking Mac and Sarah need to stay above the "fray." Everyone knows Obama made a major gaffe with the pig comment (as evidenced by his own Obamabots reaction in the audience, and the commentary on the Hilary forums). But let's stay on point with the issues. Mac and Sarah have the country's attention - now let's sock it to 'em with substance! |
|
But did she refer to Obama as Sambo?

Maybe it was Freudian. I don't think it was brilliant. Sure, everybody's talking about it. But it either makes BO look boned-headed or sophomoric, but definitely not presidential.
The libs and their LSM have shot themselves in the foot. Those 30 people scouring Alaska for something on Palin may come up with something substantive against her, but it will get drowned out with all the lies and gratuitous attacks they have barraged her with.
What a soap opera! |
|
|
Looks like the press is starting to pile on the old man again. Palin's Lies are taking the headlines now, Erin GO Blah! Maybe Hugh can have another blame the press woe is me show today. McLame cannot hide under the empty skirt forever. Palin is wilting and becoming tiresome to the voters. Looks like the honeymoon is over! |
|
|
All this is much ado about nothing, Hugh. In a couple of weeks, if not sooner, it will be a non-story. |
|
Try the dem website. That pig is there about Palin.
But Obama wasn't talking about that. YEAH!!! |
|
|
I think we've all gotten the message about BO by now. Let's get back to issues. We've got almost two months to go and we won't be able to make it on lipstick alone. It seems most of the stuff being talked about right now are gender issues which could backfire on us as male voters are going to get tired of many of us females going on and on as we sometimes do. The point has been made. We're right on lipstick and issues, too! |
|
Palin's Lies are taking the headlines now,
Really????????????? Care to back that up. So far you guys have struck out on every made up lie.
But, please go for it! (-: |
|
Given his lies about Trig's birth, Andrew really is in no position to call anyone a liar. Especially hypocritical given how Democrats do this to Republicans and Conservatives all the time (and Team Obama does it all the time too). Now they cry foul? I am calling BS on that nonsense.
http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2008/0 9/pigs-and-lipsti.html
As for Obama's incredibly sloppy and stupid comment about lipstick, it was an incredibly sloppy and stupid comment. Was he calling Sarah Palin a pig? No, not intentionally. But he said something that his audience took as a dig on Sarah Palin. So if Obama's own supporters thought it, it is fair game for Team McCain to raise the issue.
But I agree it is a minor point and it is time to move on. There are plenty of substantive issues to challenge Barack Obama on. Perhaps Andrew will realize that he hurts Obama more than he helps with this crap. Perhaps another visit to the beach is in order?
And linking Sarah Palin with Audrey Hepburn is probably something Team McCain will welcome. Perhaps you forget how My Fair Lady turned out? Eliza Doolittle won the hearts of all the elites at the ball. http://andrewsullivan.theatlantic.com/the_daily_dish/2008/ 09/sarah-palins-fi.html |
|
|
I just cannot imagine that anyone thinks this guy (Obama) sounds Presidential. Seriously he sounds like a night club act or an 8th grader. |
|
not that I should care what you think, but I feel like I have to set the record straight.
I'm guessing "astroturfer" means some kind of thinking that I'm a fake or something? Whatever it is, clearly it isn't something you like.
Fine if you disagree, but I'm no pinhead, and yes I'm a McCain/Pailin supporter, again, not that I have to defend myself to you, but for some reason I'm doing it. Probably because I instinctively recoil at the thought of being thought of as a lib-dem.
Obama's comment was either direct insult or him showing us he's just plain stupid. I am seeing it as he is stupid. Either way Obama Hussein is a doorknob. |
|
I think we can agree that the one word which best describes Barack Obama is--vicious.
Only a naturally vicious person would call a woman a pig in lipstick when he needs women's votes. But if there's one thing we know about Obama's political dealings, it's that he's a no-holds-barred a** kickin' sonofab****. The stories of the politically dead and wounded who've taken on Obama and left the fray legless and armless are legion.
We can't let the Democrats treat our women this way. Men! Stand up to this bully! The righteousness of our cause and the power of our protests cannot be withstood! We must complain loudly. It's the only way these vicious Democrats will learn. |
|
So the gist of the trolls here is that BO made an intentionally incendiary, juvenile remark to goad the McCain campaign into overreacting. Then, in true Pee Wee Hermanesque glee they scream "I know you are but what am I" over and over as if their guy somehow looks better in the exchange?
From the, ahem, quality, of the trolls here I can see how this would appeal to them. |
|
Barack does not even come close to being presidential, and Michelle is not remotely close to being first lady material.
See a clip of her on the Ellen Degenerate show dancing onto the stage to rap music. That paints a nasty picture in my head of a woman who would be first lady going onto the show of a leftist loon who is pro-choice, anti-gun, anti-war, governmental controlled health care, consorting with our enemies, big business supporting, lobbiest promoting, bigoted, "lesbian" comedian. Talk about selective acquaintances! Degenerate is not a good choice for a first lady to be hangin' wit, ya know what I mean? |
|
Apologies if in fact you are not an astroturfer.
Definition of astroturfing- the process whereby obama drones show up and claim to be conservatives, then spew carefully crafted noise from b.hussein's propaganda machine in an attempt to sound like real "grassroots" people. Fake grassroots, hence the term astroturfing.
We've been overrun here for the last few weeks by them, and I've apparently become a bit over-zealous in weeding them out. Believe I've caught a few, as evidenced by scott's response.
Again, sorry for the mistake, assuming you ain't one of these drones.
|
|
Misattributed the condescending tripe dribbling from ex-pat to animule girl.
Ex-pat, what a persuasive argument you make, calling everyone stupid. That's sure to get your party a whole bunch of votes. And gosh, I'm ever so glad you've appointed yourself the arbiter of what my best interests are. You so smart.....
Any comments on nobama voting the lefty line 97% of the time and then blabbling about post-partisan change? |
|
"All this is much ado about nothing, Hugh. In a couple of weeks, if not sooner, it will be a non-story."
Correct.
But by then, b.hussein will have spit up yet another stupid statement, causing the whole cycle to run yet again. And every time this moron serves up the stupid, he sheds voters.
Rove, man. What a frickin' genius. |
|
got it. Yeah, they're a bunch of tools (literally I suppose :-) ). So astroturfer = stealth seminar callers to talk radio...
Good luck - keep the pressure up. Appreciate your note. |
|
The same as Obama!
I will not cede the battle ground to you!
This commercial is built for one thing, to peal the voters from a very small group into the Republican fold for this election.
We may all wish it was not so, but the libs have made every word an offense to someone. We just have to play on their ground at this time. YOU made the rules, now live or die by them.
Why is it, every time we use the same tactics forced on us by the Dems, we are accused of not being the "big boys" we are supposed to be? Only to pull the reigns from us another time! NO. I will not be held to one standard, as the other side slimes it's way to another election victory.

Nice try on the misdirection.
But this thread is about obama's stupefyingly boneheaded move yesterday, and how he has enraged a looooooot of people.
And besides, your stuff isn't even good. Can't you go back to the townhouse and get some better lines?
You, like your empty suit candidate, are a failure. |
|
I am stunned Obama responds to PALIN... EVER...EVER
WHY? It gets him nowhere. |
|
|
|
See a clip of her on the Ellen Degenerate show dancing onto the stage to rap music. That paints a nasty picture in my head of a woman who would be first lady.

Barack Obama: He's our man! No, I mean it. This cat is the best candidate the Democrats could have given us Republicans. Thank you, Democrats.
John McCain was not the favorite candidate for the base of the Republican party so we appreciate the Democrats apparently taking pity on us and sending in Barack Obama as the booby prize. In fact, Barack put the "boob" in booby prize. He certainly is, you know, good for a laugh, um, you know, anytime he opens his mouth. (BTW, I am told that if you put your ear to his mouth when he yawns, you can hear the ocean.)
(The Troubled Democrat Nominee)
Lately his campaign seems to be unraveling faster than a roll of red tape at the IRS. First, the driveling droves of drones in the Big Media have stopped lapping up every word of his cliched babble to pay attention to the Republican Convention and rising star VP nominee, Sarah Palin. And now he's been hit (h/t: Ben Smith's Blog) with McCain's campaign coyly using a play from the Democrat playbook and feigning offense at Barack's ill-timed "lipstick on a pig" comment.
This has become quite an amusing election season. I can't wait to see Obama-Biden further implode in the days to come. As Hugh has said, "If it's fair, we'll win."

Palin does not change one single thing of what the Republicans are offering which is four more years of George Bush. All that McCain did was to put lipstick on the Pig (the Bush Administration whose failed strategies have wrecked our nation). Nothing has changed except for an exciting and sexy dash of lipstick to freshen up their tired old face of more of the same.
The same people who do not like the Bush Administration for what it has done to this nation are not going to be fooled by the lipstick on the pig. And it they think that the American public are so stupid that they will rush over now and kiss their pig of a platform because it is wearing a fresh touch of lipstick, well I think they will be surprised. Economically, the majority of Americans are at the breaking point. Most American families literally cannot stand another four more years of the same.
That is exactly why we had so many Republicans giving testimony at our convention as to why they were crossing over. The message was the same: They simply could no longer afford to vote Republican. Palin does not change that message. She is more of the same.

"Correct.
But by then, b.hussein will have spit up yet another stupid statement, causing the whole cycle to run yet again. And every time this moron serves up the stupid, he sheds voters."
Maybe, maybe not. But my prediction is that, come Nov. 4, y'all will be wringing your hands over the outcome of the election, just like you did during the last two.
Enjoy your buoyant mood while it lasts, however. After all, we *are* in the "silly season."
|
|
Are you really this willing to be manipulated?
I'm astounded by the levels that you are able to gin up some fake outrage. Well done.
Republicans probably WILL win this election after all. They definitely can WHINE louder than Democrats. Republicans can dish it out (shots at "community organizers!") but they sure can't take it.
Dems are not above racing to the bottom. It can happen; it will happen again. But in this election season, Republicans are stone guilty of playing gutter politics. They are able to draw on the power of the uneducated rabble, the lowest common denominator, the weak-willed, by avoiding facts, obfuscating the issues, throwing in the red meat ("He cawled our purty Sarah a pig!") and passing out pitchforks and torches to the masses. Repeat a lie loud and long, and it will become a slogan.
No wonder so few good people of either party will run for office. This process degrades everyone. |

Defeatism, arrogant elitism and nihilism, all in one short post. Bravo!

If you are honest, You know, Hillary, was the better candidate.
Obama, his bumptious egotistic arrogant behavor, will be his downfall. |

Wow, I think McCain should have let the pundits roll with the lipstick pig stuff and taken the high road instead of giving Obama something to talk about today, and I am an astroturfer?!?!? Really?
If I am in with Obama simply because I believe this commercial was a mistake by the McCain campaign in the sense that it is whining and unnecessarily making a victim out of Palin (much like K-Lo wrote at National Review), I'll take the title.
I really think you jumped the gun with the labeling though Erin. |
|
Uh, Obama voted with the recent 9% approval, do-nothing congress 97% of the time! Who's worse.
It looks like youtube has pulled the ad. as soon as I saw katie couric in that ad, I knew it would only last about 2-3 hours. |

The only thing this really proves about Barack is that one of those big ears is made of tin. |

No thanks! |

Toooooooooo Much FUUUUUUUN!!
K.G....Me'thinks they be shootin' themselves somewhat north of the feet, Babycakes! :-)
I haven't seen a train wreck this dramatic since "The Fugitive"! And the Nutter-Leftoids are squeeling, whining, 'No Fair!', 'No Fair!', and looking like the total Fools that they are. Baby Bammy is humorless and grindingly self-serious and DOESN'T get the joke. No timing. A Fool. Think of our own HH-Thread Fool, Patriotic Lib'rul (aka-The Bloviator / Blovie Boy..)and you will feel the gears meshing with that, "Oh" thing.
Gotta credit Rush with this query to his staff on the air today: Anybody know the difference between Obama and an Empty Suit? (Silence...)
Answer: Exactly. :-)
Too Much Fun, Too Much Fun...I be Havin' Tooooo Much FUUUUUUUUUUUNNNN!! |

for years the marxist / leninists have been posting at hugh's telling us how stupid republicans and conservatives are.
we've been told that the marxists will crush us in 08.
now the marxists tell us how brilliant our campaigning is, and that the republicans probably will win because the electorate is so stupid.
yet last week when their god was in the lead we were told the public was too smart to elect mccain.
so the public has gone from being the brightest people on the earth to the most stupid, all in one week. |

The whole lipstick thing aside, including whether or not it was an intentional reference to Palin, Obama's response to the whole thing is one that demonstrates his primal anger that is always lurking beneath the surface. It's patently obvious, and not a presidential quality, it's a tantrum waiting to happen every time the world fails to conform to his view. An attitude like that is one we cannot afford in our nation's highest office. |
|
"can dish it out but can't take it" what they really mean is that they're hacked that we're pushing back.
and now that we have the equivalent of clinton's war room fighting bimbo eruptions it's a new ballgame.
get used to it, marxists.
you'll take it, and you'll like it. |
|
I honestly don't believe that Barry meant the lipstick on a pig remark to be a direct reference to Palin.
But in watching and listening to the crowds reaction after he said it, they sure as hell took it that way. It was simply a poor choice of words on his part given the short period of time that has elapsed since the Palin speech. Barry should have simply offered an apology to those women who most certianly were offended by his remark, and left it at that.
|

I noticed that too. I guess the lib's forget. They run the schools and if the nation is "stupid'. Well guys it's your fault!
But typical of dem's. They always say the (other) people are stupid, that is until we learn their leaders and even dummer.
How low can they go. (-: |
|
McCain Palin will not win by taking the low road and blowing a comment like this out of proportion.
1. Distracts from main message - Obama lacks experience and has zero track record of change. McCain Palin is the agent of change. Let Obama Biden gaffes and tactics speak for themselves. The voters are not stupid.
2. Turns Obama into the victim "falsely accussed" b/c by and large everyone understands a slip of the tongue or unintended references. |
|
can go real low.
if they could pull it off i am convinced they would turn the country into one giant marxist gulag.

Michelle hit the nail on the head perfectly regarding hi-powered women. It's ok if they're libs but taboo if they're conservative!! |

my friend - I quoted that right off the transcript from Obama's speech yesterday. not filtered through
commentary. you can't be for real. when did your
mind close and you lose all your remaining objectivity? |
|

You can always count on the left to attribute the entire Republican rank and file as a bunch of uneducated, back-woods, rednecks who are just sheep that cannot make a serious and informed decision with someone holding thier hand in the voting booth. Further, the Dems seem to assume that just because we are also tired of politics as usual and haven't been happy with a lot of the current President's policies and decisions that we automatically would fall for the least qualified Presidental candidate of all time. We can't help it that in your fever to win the election that you chose such an empty shell to represent you. We can't help that because he was such a big hit all summer within your party that you didn't bother to think about the rest of the country nor that you wouldn't be able to sell him to people who totally disagree with you. Obama is now the albatross hanging around the necks of your party. It's not that we don't know the issues. It's that we don't agree with your man on how to fix them. You put all your bets on one man. That man picked a bad running mate. His first demonstration of poor leadership. He preaches change and then picks one of the most inset polical figures of all time. So go ahead and continue to bash us as stupid, uneducated, uninformed, whatevers. It doesn't matter. While you stand around stomping your feet and shaking your fists.....we'll be winning an election. See ya'll at polls. |

So Wile E. Coyote, too clever by half, Super Genius! Obama has found a gaggle of rubes he can fool every time--MSM rubes. |

the markist paratroopers dropped into alaska will find a palin comment or association made sometime in the past 44 years, and blow it out of proportion?
just maybe?
the marxists are out to win. they'll cut republicans no slack, none.
many republicans have gone down over a slip of the tongue.
this is a battle.
obambi is easliy rattled.
i believe the republican campaign should keep the marxists and him on the defensive. |

South Carolina Democratic chairwoman Carol Fowler sharply attacked Sarah Palin today, saying John McCain had chosen a running mate ” whose primary qualification seems to be that she hasn’t had an abortion.”

But I'm just spinning, right Cicero?
You say:
"Maybe, maybe not. But my prediction is that, come Nov. 4, y'all will be wringing your hands over the outcome of the election, just like you did during the last two."
Uh, we won the last two presidential elections- and I thought you were posing as an objective, unaligned "intellectual"- did I misunderstand you?
Anyway- the last one I didn't sweat at all, and made a lot of money off bets with my lefty friends. Lurch was a stiff. Thanks for sending up another one- except this one is even LESS qualified.
"Enjoy your buoyant mood while it lasts, however. After all, we *are* in the "silly season."
I shall, in much the same manner that you and your obamlytes did when he won the dnc nod. And your guy? Adding everyday to the silly season- which is what I was talking about.
bradkz:
"...They are able to draw on the power of the uneducated rabble, the lowest common denominator, the weak-willed.."
Excellent strategery, that- insult voters' intelligence. That always works. Elitist much?
fitzwdarcey:
"I really think you jumped the gun with the labeling though Erin."
If I incorrectly labeled you as an obamadrone I apologize. Pretty much every site I go to has been overrun with them, and it gets annoying. If I misspoke about you, I apologize.

Yeah, just mail it in. You guys won. What a joke.
Lipstick on pig is gonna backfire. You overplayed--even for the compliant creeps in the media. Everyone now sees what a phony game you're playing. You are going down, Reeps. Americans will not allow you to turn America into a "not great" nation. You are not going to get elected on a tissue of lies and dishonor. As old Abe said, you can't fool all the people all the time. |

Wow, this is really, REALLY smart. We're doomed I tell you:

Key quote:
"Told of McCain's boost in the new ABC/Washington Post among white women following the Palin pick, Fowler said: 'Just anecdotally, I believe that those white women are Republican women anyway.'"
Wow, not patronizing and condescending to women at all. You guys need a new shovel? You've been digging pretty much nonstop for a couple weeks now.

is the public smart today?
or stupid?
with mccain ahead your fellow marxists on today's thread say the public are ignorant hillbillies.
last week when supposedly the god was ahead the public were all rocket scientists.
just wondering. |

WRONG again.
One person say's they heard something when NO-one else did, proves "ZERO" Nice try. |

okay....
A piece of media called "LA Progressive"? That's convincing.
And this, from the article:
"According to Lucille, the waitress serving her table at the time and who asked that her last name not be used...."
Well slap my bee-hind and fax me from Kinko's, we got us a bona fidee scandal!
Somebody call mary mapes, she ain't doin' much these days, mebbe she can bring her skills to bear on this.
Briggsy, c'mon. How is this different than the shabby "evidence" that brought Rather down? This is weak, even for you.

I remember that fine food place too. Ahhh the good old days of cheap food and plenty of it.
Now if your new kids here really know what SAMBO stands for. |

Mccain 50.5% / Obama 49.5%
Just last week, it was 60/40 Obama.
Incredible. No doubt a result of The Master's incredible implosion over the last couple of days.
Of course, George Soros will shortly rush in and dump a few million on Obama, as he always does (did the same thing for Kerry in '04 -- the man doesn't care how much he loses), which will wing the Intratrade margin back to Obama. But it's revealing to look into this window and see the market's REAL perception of The One's chances. |
|
Were we to accept that Obama's comments were indeed not about Sarah Pallin, then his poor choice of words will foce anyone to seriously call into question his ability to conduct foreign policy by diplomacy.
How can someone so often "misquoted, or "taken out of context," talk to foreign leaders? Which he has made the corner-stone of his foreign policy agenda.
Given his long record of alleged misquotes, one can probably expect Obama to made improper use of the word pork, monkey, dog, and shoe, while talking to Muslims, then refusing to apologize only to finally claiming, as he always does, that he was "taken out of context."
And he expect us to make him President? |

Amazing...after earlier questioning (1:25pm) why he would EVER...EVER..... respond to Palin..... HE RESPONDS AGAIN .... blaming the other guys for returning volley..... Is Obama going crazy? He has to be emotional unhinged right now to continue his response and has no idea on how to get back on offense.
BTW, keep it up Barck cuz' you know I'm pullin for you! |

Obama voted with the Leftists in Congress 100% of the time, do you think America is for that? What is the Congress's approval, 20 points below President Bush's?
Just wait till the 507's roll out the Nancy(natural gas is not a fossil fuel)and Harry (the war is lost)ads tying Obama to their Doofus Congress. Most radical Leftist ever nominated in the history of America and you don't even need Karl Rove to make mincemeat of that.

When I first read about the "lipstick on a pig" comment, I thought it was a bit of a stretch to insist that it was an allusion to Palin. Then I saw the "finger for Hillary" video which Hugh helpfully posted, and then I heard B.O.'s "lipstick" line.
The parallel in the two situations in terms of the interplay between Obama and his audience is *unmistakable* -- Obama's dry, all-but-winking gesture or comment, and the crowd's immediate catch-on to The Mellow One's insulting import. (People pointing out McCain's previous use of the same phrase should compare crowd reactions in the varying situations.)
In this light, there's no honest way around the fact that he was taking a potshot at Sarah Palin. The only serious questions to ask are (1) Did he really mean it to be insulting, or (viewing it more charitably) was he just giving in to some "cute" wordplay? and (2) How big a deal should we make of it?
Given the vehemence and disingenuousness of his denials, I think it's fair to play this one up somewhat -- AND take this opportunity to remind Hillary's crew of his previous uncalled-for conduct.
Obummassiah: By his snipes he is not healed.

Erin bleats in response to my:
"...They are able to draw on the power of the uneducated rabble, the lowest common denominator, the weak-willed.."
"Excellent strategery, that- insult voters' intelligence. That always works. Elitist much?"
Excellent strategery... exaggerate their intelligence and pat their bellies 'til they'll follow you anywhere.
Me, elitist? Well, maybe... in that I think most people aren't really that engaged or are that actually that intelligent or paying that much attention beyond the stuff that rises out of the white noise, and these are the people who will be casting deciding votes. Unlike you, Erin, I actually would prefer someone SMARTER than the average person be in the White House. No aspersions on McCain, who I respected as a leader. (It's just that he's a Republican who sold his soul.) But your assault on "elitism" is a way of knocking smart people (Obama, Gore, Kerry) off their pedestal. For some reason, y'all find smart people so threatening. It's an easy lever to pull to make "average" people react negatively. "I want someone just like me in there!" It's why Palin is such a big hit: she's so "average"! Yeesh. |
|
I agree that McCain/Palin shouldn't have responded with the sexism card because that is low-brow (i.e used by Democrats). A better and more biting response would have been, "We sure Sen. Obama didn't mean to call Sen. McCain an old fish and Gov. Palin a pig. We realize his only mistake was trying to be a regular guy without a teleprompter."
Checkmate. |
|
Obama made three "comments" in a row, all preplanned and premeditated about three GOP leaders, Sarah, John, and Pres. George. Certainly not an accident!!
First, the pig-lipstick joke comment with a long pause for calculated audience response was a clever reference to Gov Sarah...
Second, an old joke about a stinky fish wrapped in newspaper still stinking is a less than subtle reference to "old" John McCain as being stinking-old. Of course Obama wrove in his 'change' chant into the punch line.
Third, and most telling that this whole sequence was calculated, deliberate, and cunning, Obama slamped President George Bush's past 8 years of keeping this nation safe and slimed the three "joke comments" together to present himself (OB) as the true agent of change.
I say Obama IS changing our perception of him and that is the significant change happening to the American electorate: waking up to a US Senator who is changing before our very eyes, dropping his verbose disguise, and appearing as a power hungry, calculating politician--chanting about why he is our answer to the challenges of this nation.
I am happy to see this CHANGE in the opinion of the American public.
Casual acceptance of abortion is not the change that the American public wants, contray to the illustrious lady from So. Carolina. Sarah is the real heart of American women. We love our country, our children, and want our voices to be heard this election. It is Rosie, the Riveter (sp?)in our time.
Feminists historically went left--and left the majority of caring American women on the sidelines with their harsh politics. Sarah picks up the fallen banner of balance, family values, and common sense to successfully march along side Senator McCain to lead this nation. She is an American Woman. |
|
Obama stated "Americans aren't stupid etc.," Well,
he better hope enough of us are dumb so he has a better chance to win! I didn't hang in there with Obama, so did I get lucky? Ha! Ex Democrat |
|
I think right now its Obama who is exploring his "Eagleton options". He has himself to blame for disenfranchising the women voters who came out for Hillary. Many have asked: "Why didn't he choose Hillary?" For me the answer is simple:
EGO!
Ego is Obama's Achilles heel. For example, Obama can't simply go to Europe and meet quietly with the leaders of France or Germany. No, he needs to have large crowds greet his coming (most of whom are there for the free music and BEER!). He can't have his acceptance speech in a 5000 seat civic center. No he needs a football stadium complete with fake greek columns and large screen TV's on each side. If Obama chose Hillary the question will haunt him for the rest of his life. Who did they vote for more? Obama or Hillary. No ammount of polling will EVER suffice or answer that question. But instead, by NOT taking Hillary (and taking a Senator who will help him carry ZERO states) that question will never be asked.
Now it's too late. He never thought McCain would choose Palin as he saw as too inexperienced (blinded to the fact that he himself has no experience for the job). McCain also gave him a political "head fake" by suggesting Lieberman was on his short list and that the 2 of them would have a large amount of foreign policy experience. He assumed and he was wrong. Now he is stuck with "Blowhard Biden" and it's too late to make the call to Hillary. Unless he can make the case that Biden is mentally "unstable" (and there is evidence of that).
It also shows that this JUNIOR senator is TOO junior for the presidency. Choosing your running mate is your first "presidential decision" and is a glimpse into how you will be in office. If he can be out-faked on something like this (which should have been a "no brain-er") how will he handle the likes of the leaders of Iran or Russia when the stakes are even higher. |

"Uh, we won the last two presidential elections- and I thought you were posing as an objective, unaligned 'intellectual'- did I misunderstand you?"
Well, I certainly wouldn't characterize myself as an intellectual, even though I'm more well-read than many of you. Whatever that makes me, however, is irrelevant. The main thing is that I remember the last two elections, and the GOP's candidate just barely won them, especially the first one, as I'm sure you remember.
Unless you followed different elections than I did.
"Anyway- the last one I didn't sweat at all, and made a lot of money off bets with my lefty friends. Lurch was a stiff. Thanks for sending up another one- except this one is even LESS qualified."
Well, I remember that one like it was yesterday, and there was a whole lotta sweatin' goin' on, especially early, when returns appeared to indicate a rout in favor of Kerry. Bush ended up getting the big electoral states he needed, but that didn't occur until relatively late in the evening.
"I shall, in much the same manner that you and your obamlytes did when he won the dnc nod. And your guy? Adding everyday to the silly season- which is what I was talking about."
Obama's not my "guy", dearie.

Somehow, get your hands on the first hour of O'Reilly's broadcast tonight, 9/10. Have a look at what objectivity looks like.
Bill played the *entire context* of the Obama remark, and clearly - clearly - you people have taken the remark out of context for political gain.
And if I'm not mistaken, Hugh and many of you call yourselves "Christians." And secondarily "conservatives" - who are supposed to have cool heads in order to compensate for not having warm hearts. You are neither, when you engage in this type of behavior.
O'Reilly made the distinction between Obama haters and McCain supporters. He referred to certain talk show hosts. You were clearly on his mind, Hugh, as are the mindless "Obama haters" who follow you.
His recommendation to Mrs. Palin: go public, and make clear what is clear to everyone who listened to the full context of the Obama remark: Obama was not calling you a pig, and we should move on to discuss the *issues*.. If you do this, you'll only solidify the support of independents. If you don't, you run the risk of driving independents to Obama.
O'Reilly: "If you truly think Obama is stupid, you're stupid." Amin.
Hey Hugh, you're one of two things: 1) a moron; or (as I suspect) 2) a cyber-demagogue. You excite the emotions of the "base" in hopes of ensuring a Mequeno victory. But you'd be more moral, more Christian, if you were simply a moron. |

Because I could never live with myself.
Got that, arch? Clearly?

Of course not dimwit! You are a libtard against prosperity for all who earn it. Have you ever been a constitutional law professor or on the staff of a sitting president? Didn't think so my friend, Cicero.

The whining of the McCain camp looks childish. One of the most appealing things about Sarah Palin is her ability to warm-heartedly dismiss vicious and relentless attacks against her with a smile and a clever turn of phrase. The pompous indignation in the ad is a big turn-off. I'm glad they cancelled it--too bad it was a few hours too late. |
|
Becoming "very successful" has no more negative connotation than profit does. I suspect that it is not in your being to be successful because you are too filled with vitriol which will always be an obstacle to being successful. Your attack on Hugh is completely without merit and just plain mean. He is a fine and accomplished man, lives his faith, and does more than talk about helping his fellow human beings.
I think the whole lipstick thing is much ado about nothing. Obama is an empty suit and is nothing more than a 60s type radical. If the liberal ideology were something that most of America would embrace they wouldn’t have to go to the trouble of hiding their true beliefs. Alas, most of America is right of center. Once Obama’s true lack of accomplishment and character is revealed McGovern’s loss in ’72 will pale by comparison.

"Of course not dimwit! You are a libtard against prosperity for all who earn it. Have you ever been a constitutional law professor or on the staff of a sitting president?"
Ah yes, one more sterling example of the heights to which this comments box aspires.
But if you're going to call me names, arch, at least get it right: it should be "tradtard" or "truecontard" or "paleotard". Something like that.
By the way, law professors, like all academics, are capable of spewing the worst kinds of ideologically-driven, fact-deprived claptrap. Think, for instance, of all the anti-Second Amendment "scholarship" generated by the legal academy within the last several decades - happily ignored by the 5 justices in the Heller decision. Think of all the claptrap you regularly hear on Hugh's show from the very accomplised scholar Irwin Chemerinsky. If that "smart guy" can be so dumb, so can any so-called "smart guy", Hugh included. I have enough of an academic background myself to know that academes can make total fools of themselves.
As Hugh has done here. |
|

Cicero. Your attack upon Hugh is feeding the libtards. Why don't you just switch parties and help them out that way? Maybe you can dance for Obammy's pleasure while you are at it. If you disagree with Hugh, then do it like a man and don't vote for Hugh. Reagan always said to never speak badly of a fellow conservative but you do not take heed. You instead diminish the work of a good man to the benefit of the libtards! Who are you? |
