So with all the false Brouhaha over the lipstick wearing pig stirred up by the GOP...
Does this mean they think Palin is a pig?

Seriously, they are the once who immediately pounced on the long used bromide as being somehow a sexist attack on Sarah Palin.

So that only follows that they think Palin is a pig or worse, that when pigs come to mind, they envision women.

Unless of course you are McCain and talking about an issue near and dear to a woman, HRC.

This is just getting me ill.

Republicans can lie, cheat, steal, have sex with barn animals and young boys and oh well.

But Obama makes a casual comment about dressing up an old, tired idea up with lipstick is somehow sexists.

I expect thesis will be written on this subject. It's being given that much importance by the media.

Today's Anchorage University Doctoral Degree in Pig Smear Polemics goes to Sarah Palin, VI.

2. back in my waiter days...i approached a table of several women and men...and said my usual:
"What's going on, guys? (one of the more casual places i've worked)...

one of the guys said: "Do you think my wife looks like a man?"...

i realized what was happening and looked at the lady, who was getting embarassed by her husband's comment, and, being the might-as-well-take-a-shot-at-it kind of waiter i am, said:

"Sir, why would you ever think i would think your wife looks manly?"

Everybody laughed...well, everybody but him...but his wife laughed the loudest and longest....

and when it had calmed down, she said to me: "Don't worry, I'LL leave the tip."

those who know, know they know...
