Was Her Joke Comparing Hockey Moms To Pit-bulls

with lipstick sexist? Something tells me if Obama would have told it, it would have been construed as such.

1. And doesn't it have the

"Lipstick on a pig" connotation. Y'know, dressing up a turd to be a dinner roll? Why did she make that comparison to herself, which is something everyone is already doing all over the internet?

3. Because she is not the brightest bulb in the drawer???

The elevator doesn't go to the top floor?
The light are on but no one is home?
A few sandwiches short of a picnic?
Not the sharpest knife in the drawer?

2. It was a good line. She's a barracuda and it fits her. I'd ignore it and concentrate on issues.

She still claims she turned down the funding for the 'bridge to nowhere' when in reality she lobbied for it.

She calls herself a "friend in the White House" to parents of special needs kids, yet as governor cut special education funding by 62%

She ignored abortion because she knows her stance--antiabortion and anti-choice even in the case of rape and incest

She lied saying Obama would raise taxes. Obama pledged to cut taxes for 90% of Americans

She said Alaska has plenty of oil and natural gas when in fact it's reserves would not put a dent in either America's energy importation needs nor the current high price of petroleum.

She said Dems want to surrender in the war on terror when Obama is specifically promising to go after the Taliban and al-Qaeda in Afghanistan--the central front against the terrorists who attacked us and who the Bush administration and John McCain have all but ignored.
