To dismiss this as nothing more than vitriol from Democrats is to lie to yourself. It shows an enormous lack of integrity within a group of people when they not only tolerate but support people who are proven liars.

John McCain says he’s about change, too. Except — and so I guess his whole angle is, “Watch out, George Bush, except for economic policy, health-care policy, tax policy, education policy, foreign policy, and Karl Rove-style politics. We’re really gonna shake things up in Washington.” That’s not change. That’s just calling some — the same thing, something different. But you know, you can — you know, you can put lipstick on a pig; it’s still a pig.</blockquote> He didn't even refer to her indirectly in this statement. You can lie to yourself if you want to, but lying to us about this is a waste bandwidth.

It's a race, for goodness sake. The one with the most supporters wins. Aren't we running around the world shoving democracy down everyone's throat so that they too can have a race where the one with the most votes... whether you like it or not... wins?

I don't care what the media says, if you connect the dots, it's obvious that Obama's lipstick/pig comment, which came just days after Palin scored points with her pitbulll/lipstick statement, was an ugly sexist response from Obama. Now, Obama is crying that he was misinterpreted, while the media, once again assists him in playing the victim. The deck has been so stacked in favor of Obama, whether it's the media's refusal to vet Obama in the first place, to giving Obama free rides with Wright, Farrakhan, Rezko, Ayers, etc.. The media, as well as shows like The View, are continuing to show extreme bias against Senator John McCain, while kissing Obama's ass.
