Ugh. We hate to add anything to today’s bullshit “THAT’S OFFENSIVE” fake outrage from McCain’s bizarre campaign, but here’s video of Ol’ Man Walnuts saying today’s “I am now pretending there is something unique or weird about this common phrase” saying, about respected woman Hillary Clinton, complete with some humorless libtard’s “Pop Up Video”-esque captioning. Whatever. [YouTube]

Why does John McCain have such little respect for Sarah Palin?
So you’re saying first wife leaving, skirt chasing, adulterer, family values praising, life loving JSMc is a hypocrite? This is NEWS?
I did not realize that McInsane could think, talk and wave those Mouseketeer arms all at the same time. Did he learn that in Manchuria?
Sarah Palin compared herself to a dog and everyone knows pigs are smarter than dogs, not to mention more delicious when licked, so it was actually a compliment.
Crocodile tears of a clown.
What I don’t get is why they’re even bothering with this attack? Doesn’t it seem kind of desperate? If you read the newspapers and watch the news on the television moving picture box, McCain has a huge lead, but this seems like the kind of tactic you pull when you’re 8 points down 6 days before the election. I can’t quite figure it out.
I want to throw up right now.
But,but, Ken, remember It’s Ok If You’re a Republican!
As a Muslim is Obama even allowed to say pig?
Wait a second… If Palin is the pig, and McCain’s economic policy is the lipstick, then it means that McCain owns lipstick, which makes him a cross-dresser.
I guess all presidential candidates at one time or another have uttered this phrase. For some reason, I can really visualize it coming out of Bob Dole’s mouth.
[re=91373]Dave J.[/re]: Check the electoral map. If you ask 1000 people, the race is basically tied, but if Obama can take Michigan, Nevada, and Montana (or some such combination of random states), he wins.

[re=91373]Dave J.[/re]: Actually, I think (HOPE) Walnuts’ bump is mostly in the red Southern states where all the fundies & racists reside. If he runs up his numbers there, meh who cares. Hopey was never going to win AL, MS, TN, etc. anyway.
I’ve read that the more moderate swing states (CO, NM, MN, WI, etc.) aren’t that impressed with Palin & Walnuts. So maybe there’s still hope. By all indications Hopey has a far better GOTV ground game going.
Also, Rasmussen has Hopey up by 1 & Gallup has Walnuts up by 5, I believe. So, until debates & October surprises, I don’t put a lot of stock in polls.
[re=91373]Dave J.[/re]: Because they don’t have a huge lead – they know they got a celebrity bounce and there’s not enough substance to last three weeks, much less eight.
[re=91373]Dave J.[/re]:
The ONLY thing the McCain campaign cares about is controlling the immediate 1-2 day news cycle. Their entire strategy is to get the cable news hosts hooked in, which subsequently forces the Obama campaign to spend that immediate 12 to 24 hours responding to the attack instead of delivering its own message.
It’s why I cringe every time I hear Dems bragging about their “response centers” or how they’ll respond to the latest swift boat-style attacks.
You can’t win unless you play offense. If Obama’s surrogates don’t start floating the “McCain is old” talk soon, they lose. Yeah, it’s kind of scuzzy, but it’s time to pull out the dog whistle. Stakes is high.
Why must Americans chuckle every time some politician compares something to a pig with lipstick? It’s getting kinda pathetic and Hopey (the plagiarist!) should find himself a new folksy metaphor quick-like. Get on the horn to Dan Rather or something.
This is pretty funny. My favorite part of this clip is pretty subtle. Watch WALNUTS! as the guy asks the question, beginning with “I noticed you avoided…” He has great body language right there. He’s somewhere between “Oh for Christ’s sake” and “Fuck you. Notice this, cocksucker!”. McCain has potential to LOSE HIS SHIT during the debates, if provoked! Oh please, oh please…
Must everyone be reminded that McCain had neither lipstick nor pigs FOR FIVE AND A HALF YEARS!!!??!!!
it’s time to pull out the dog whistle
or the pig whistle.
“I haven’t examined all the details”
It’s becoming more obvious everyday, Walnuts.
You can put lipstick on John McCains face raping pig balls. But you cant…fuck I don’t know anymore…maybe you can.
“You can’t win unless you play offense.”
YES, Botswana! The Rove/McCain people could call Barry a child molester, and he would protest weakly instead of saying that McCain is an ax murderer. Yesterday that little twerp Richard Cohen in the Post called Barry a pussy. Today’s it’s Friedman in the Times. Is anyone in the Obama campaign listening?
So now Obama needs to kiss a pig, and announce that if McCain won’t, he’s a secret Muslim.
Problem solved.
At this very moment, Sarah pyg-malion is being transformed into a vp who’s capable of answering delicate questions.
But will her lip stick tightly shut forever?
Ken, I hope we have a roving reporter up there.
But Hillary Clinton is a Democratic woman and thus not human. So it’s OK. Also, the rules don’t apply to John McCain and it’s nasty attack politics to use his own words to show him as a massive 100 foot neon hypocrite.

[re=91396]sezme[/re]: how about, ‘that’s like putting perfume on a goat – a stumpbroke goat.’
[re=91369]Oscar Folsom Cleveland[/re]: I find McCain’s movements, like with all marionette motions, at first amazing but then it gets a little creepy.
[re=91371]spencer[/re]: You should dip your dog in peanut butter (or better yet, some of that Thai peanut sauce) before tasting.
They are trying to ride this wave of personality for as long as they can because come debate time it’s over…and I am not talking about Palin. Obama is going to wipe the floor with McSame’s stinky depends diaper.
Even with the bounce, McSame has not hit the 50 mark and he is still losing in key states where the Republican ideology of deregulating markets and shipping jobs overseas has finally broken through the cult of personality politics and theological nuttery that has held us captive to the beer drinking brush clearer and his minions.
McSame and VPILF are like those characters in John Hughes movies that are rich and popular and shit on all the cool people…they are bullies who literally live on other people’s money and good looks (well, at least one)…and they will go down just like James Spader always did. (Que montage with hip 80s music)
[re=91411]S.Luggo[/re]: These lipstick videos are making me feel better. Thanks.
Oh, man, that Cheney soundbite is Dick at his creepiest.
[re=91377]trophy(forparticipation)wife[/re]: as we are now in the blessed month of Ramadan, we are all cursing Allah by the mention of food during daylight hours. I suggest we stop, because the way I see if Moosilini is wrong about so many things, she may well be wrong about her choice of religion. Allu Akbar!
Does anyone remember the episode of Beavis and Butthead where Beavis claimed that he did in fact once try to polish a turd, and, it’s true, can’t be done. This seems about as relevant to the future of this country as today’s big story.
Anyone else think this is actually kind of a brilliant ploy by Obama’s camp? It accomplishes the following:
1. Takes McCain off message.
2. Points out McCain’s hypocrisies (they had to know he had said that same thing before. Who says that BESIDES 100-year-old douchebags?).
3. Puts Barry in his element–talking about the issues–while making McCain seem like a petty idiot and Bush-Rove disciple.
4. Lets Barry showcase his wit, along with his ability to hold a crowd in the palm of his hand.
Bonus: You get to subtly call that racist come-dumpster a pig, then make her look like a whiner (or identify herself with Hillz, which her base HATES) if she says anything.
“I’ll win this with my War Hero sword and my Everymom shield, so help me God.”
He of all people should understand the lethality of target fixation. Considering his demonstrated contempt for safe pilotage, it’s plainly obvious that his ego must be satisfied first and foremost. Aircraft/troops/citizens/country be damned.
“He a menace to himself and anything else in the air…birds too.”
[re=91446]BobLoblawLawBlog[/re]: makes an awful lot of sense Bob.
One time during “Love Shack,” there was a pop up that said, “The Lakers love Shaq so much they gave him a seven-year contract!”
This video’s pop ups aren’t as good as that one.

It’s even better. She gets her man to protect her, cuz that’s what all feminists really want.
[re=91436]YellowSnow[/re]: Astagfuralah.
Personally, I’m glad the “Sarah Palin is a pig” meme is getting firmly entrenched n American minds. Our memories are short, we’ll forget Obama is the one who inadvertently started it, but after all the media emphasis on “PIG!” next to shots of Palin’s face, we won’t be able to think of anything else when we see her.
[re=91446]BobLoblawLawBlog[/re]: Entirely with you. That was a Hell of a jiujitsu move Barry pulled. He keeps that shit up…
[re=91492]HopeNutz[/re]: Isn’t it obvious she’s a pig? Pigs are the source of pork.
Tell your friends.
I think we’re forgetting that in Alabama, putting lipstick on a pig is a sign that your intentions are honorable.
“You can put lipstick on a pig, my friends, and she’s still my little cunt-trollop.”
[re=91492]HopeNutz[/re]: Yes, Queen of Pork-Alaska is the winner in pork barrel politics. Yesterday she was the Queen of Welfare Per Diem since she got paid to stay in her own house!
Two-fer!

The NATIONAL ENQUIRER’S exclusive ongoing investigation of GOP VP Nom Sarah ‘Barracuda’ Palin’s goes far beyond a mere teen pregnancy crisis this week!
The Enquirer’s team of reporters has combed the Alaskan wilderness to discover the hidden truth about Gov. Palin’s family, which has become a central part of political identity.
The ENQUIRER has learned exclusively that Sarah’s oldest son, Track, was addicted to the power drug OxyContin for nearly the past two years, snorting it, eating it, smoking it and even injecting it. And as Track, 19, heads to Iraq as part of the U.S. armed forces, Sarah and her husband Todd were powerless to stop his wild antics, detailed in the new issue of The ENQUIRER, which goes on sale today.
THE ENQUIRER also has exclusive details about Track’s use of other drugs, including cocaine, and his involvement in a notorious local vandalism incident.
“I’ve partied with him (Track) for years,” a source disclosed. “I’ve seen him snort cocaine, snort and smoke OxyContin, drink booze and smoke weed.”
The source also divulged the girls would do anything for Track and he’d use his local celebrity to manipulate other guys “to get them to steal things he wanted.”

McCain and Palin are walking along together one evening when they noticed an old hound dog laying in the gutter, licking his balls. They stared worldlessly for a few moments until McCain exclaimed, “Gee, I wish I could do that!” Palin quickly responded, “Me too, but he looks like he might bite!”
[re=91414]rambone[/re]: Like the e-Trade Baby’s Clown. Exactly.
