At a campaign event in Virginia, Obama mocked McCain and his running mate for their effort to co-opt his campaign’s “change” mantra.”

“You can put lipstick on a pig,” Obama said as the crowd cheered. “It’s still a pig.”

“You can wrap an old fish in a piece of paper called change. It’s still gonna stink.”

Though Obama prefaced the “lipstick” jab by referring to the GOP ticket’s political positions, Republicans charged it was a thinly disguised slam on Palin, who famously described herself as a hard-charging hockey mom during her GOP convention speech last week.

“The difference between a hockey mom and a pitbull?” she joked. “Lipstick!” …[ more ]

————————————-

The speed with which the McCain and the evil GOP “PIGLETS” jumped on Obama, with such ferocious malice indicates clearly that they are not interested in debating issues, rather, they are full-throttle into desperate and despicable mud-flinging like they always do at the end of every presidential election.

As I noted in a previous post, Obama needs to shed the “Mr. Nice Guy” image NOW!

McCain is a well-schooled Republican — “A BIG FAT FILTHY PIG!.

He has been honing his PIG SKILLS for twenty six years in the Congress and the Senate.

Fight back Barack! Fight!

Find a ROCK somewhere!

McCain is in full “PIG KAMIKAZE MODE,” …. creating distraction after distraction — fodder for millions of IDIOT LOW INFORMATION VOTERS littering these United States.

Obama, you need to get NASTY now!

How? I don’t know — but I know one thing; John Kerry and Michael Dukakis never fought back — and they lost to Bush Senior, and to his semi-illiterate son Bush Jr., a war-criminal — a clueless moron who “speaks directly to Jesus!”

The Republican Party is overflowing with RACIST SMEAR ARTISTS — Nativist Political Prostitutes, who don’t care whether their “evil bottoms” are exposed or not.

Fight Barack! Fight Back! Ondoch Minyuru Palin!

Why Jesus Would Never, Ever Vote Republican

Product Description: This book constitutes a surgical dissection of the Republican Party, exposing it as the Party of Big Business, the POBB. Furthermore it is the Party of White Males, lacking even a single black member in Congress. (The Democrats have 44). The POBB’s Congressional ranks contain few women, only 27, while the Democrats have 64.

George Bush is quickly revealed as the Thief-in-Chief, after he purposefully purloined the 2000 election. Coupled with him is Dick Cheney. The two, plotting furiously, manufactured a cause for war with Iraq where absolutely none existed. Truth quickly became a casualty.

The ensuing debacle has caused the deaths of over 4100 of our brave lads, wounding another 31,000, many maimed for life.

Meanwhile George and Dick have steadfastly denied funds to treat these wounded heroes, withholding care or making it difficult to obtain it. They did however secure repealed tax cuts for their wealthy friends.

The Republican’s greatest President was Abraham Lincoln, who not long into office became known as “Honest Abe“; Can you imagine anyone, even a diehard Republican, calling Bush “Honest George“?

Bush has already secured his position as the nation’s worst Chief Executive. Working in tandem with Cheney, the two are absolutely at the bottom of the heap, even lower than Nixon/Agnew.

In January of 2009 we Democrats should view with great pride our first black President, Barack Obama, addressing Congress with its group of lily-white Republicans, sullen and resentful. Accompanying our new President will be a sense of exaltation as Democrats, Independents and even some Republicans, await deliverance from the gross incompetence and intense corruption of Bush’s reign of ruin.

Besides electing Barack, Democrats need to deliver about 32 new faces in the House and 8 more in the Senate. This will provide Congressional leaders with adequate votes to ram needed legislation through both bodies.

For Democrats who delight in persuing political history, this book will be a rewarding, enlightening read. It is presented in a felicitous manner, ever ready to reveal the perfidious nature of the POBB’s and their preference for white male candidates. As the author I warmly recommend its purchase, naturally enough.

   Columnist – John Sammon
The controversy over Reverend Wright and his torpedoing of the campaign of his parishioner Barack Obama proves how childish and paranoid the American people have become.

If this happened in Europe, Europeans being more sophisticated and somewhat more intelligent on average than Americans, there would be no controversy. Europeans wouldn’t hold Obama accountable for the statements of his pastor.

We’re operating under the allusion that if Wright says it, Obama believes it too. Guilt by association. It’s amusing to hear McCain call Wright’s remarks extremist, a few months after he sang a Beach Boys song, “bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran (sung to the tune of Barbara Ann).

Nobody called McCain’s sick joke extremist.

What has Wright said? Wright has the right to say it. He said instead of God bless America, God should damn America. In fairness. If the truth be known. Some of America should be damned. Such as the below.

1. America annihilated its Indian population and stole their land.

2. Americans kept others in slavery and then after a war to end it, kept African Americans in virtual servitude for the next hundred years with racist segregation.

3. Other crimes including Agent Orange for which there is not space here.

Wright called America an “imperialist” power. Well. We are. At times. We have a tendency to invade poor little countries much smaller than ours in an attempt to make them see it our way. We’ve invaded Nicaragua a half dozen times. Maybe instead of calling it “imperialist,” we should call it “concern” for Nicaraguan affairs.

President Bush wants the right to torture prisoners, and that’s not called “extremist.”

Wright’s statement that AIDS is a government plot to get rid of black Americans is a little bit far fetched and I can’t go along with that one.

That Obama’s campaign will go down the tubes because of statements made by someone over whom he (Obama) has no control is an abject lesson that to play the political game, you have to be foolishly optimistic and upbeat and never tell Americans very much of the unpleasant truths about their country. Thus, we can always feel superior, that we’re better people.

God only blesses America. God must be American and Republican.

Clearly, there is a price to be paid when you’re too candid.

It’s also another example of how the American people want to fixate on personality rather than issues. It has a long history from the Willie Horton episode that sank Michael Dukakis’s presidential hopes, to Thomas Eagleton, the vice presidential candidate who had prior mental problems, was replaced, but helped to terminate George McGovern’s campaign, or the Swift Boat right wing smear campaign against John Kerry.

You simply can’t be too truthful with the American people, if the truth is unpleasant. This is not new either. They forced Socrates to take poison.

I don’t believe America has sole ownership of morality, that we’re above reproach, that we’re God’s chosen people (especially white Republicans). Does that make me unpatriotic?

Wright is voicing frustration with a system that he thinks (with good reason) has treated he and his flock unfairly. He doesn’t speak for Obama just because Obama attends his church any more than commentator Bill O’Reilly speaks for McCain because McCain appears on his TV show.

The lesson here is clear. If you want to win office, don’t associate with big-mouth preachers, and don’t be too honest with the American people.
