All kinds of nonsense today over a comment about a pig. Namely, when Obama called McCain’s claims to be an agent of change and a maverick a “Pig with lipstick on it.” Now, the media and the GOP are having a field day, because apparently Palin now owns the word ‘lipstick.’ Or somehow they think she’s a pig. I’m not sure which is right…but they’ve made the assumption its Palin, even though he nowhere alludes to her. Wanna know why they’re squealing? Because they’ve got nothing else to talk about. They have no policies that change anything from the way they are. They talk change, but how exactly do you change a system that you’ve been in control of for 8 years? They know they can’t compete on the issues. Their polling clearly tells them that. They know that the longer Obama stays on message, the worse it is for them. So mantra #1 for the GOP will be “Get Obama off-message.” Why? Because the more time he spends talking about stupid things like if Palin’s a pig, the less time he has to actually show voters what Change really is. The media eats this stuff up. The GOP decided that Palin is the ticket to winning–so any time the media spends talking about her, especially where the mean old man is attacking the woman, even better! For a self-described pitbull, she sure likes to play the victim a lot! Comments1 Comment so far |

I have been a Republican for 30 years before switching to independent a few years ago. I have been in the Navy and I am white. I give a brief history before I make these next statements.
I am ashamed of this country and it’s political process, we have a corrupt government and a naive country, when politicians boldly go on national news and lie to the people and make then believe that this is the truth even though the facts clearly state the opposite, I am embarresed. I am speaking currently about the commercial against Obama on teaching of sex education to our children when plainly it was education about inappropriate touching. But yet people will believe it.
We also, as a country have stated in the past before Obama was elected as the Democratic choice for our President that race was not an issue, but yet we have a country that clearly is heading in the wrong direction but people are still are unwilling to vote for a man who could make a change, just because of his race? So who was right? Reverend Wright or the white people in this country that protested his statement about America, when he stated God **** America. It looks like race is still an issue, we have just have to stop lying to ourselves.
The white women of this country who vote for a party just because a party chooses a women as vice president are very ignorant and selfesh, grow up.
Next, we have clearly lost our direction on who the true terrorist are that destroyed the towers in New York City. We are in a war that we should not be in, we were lied to by our politicians and again this was clearly documented. We have the largest deficit in American history partly due to this war, the world is against us but we seem to ignore it. We try to impose on another country our corrupt form of Government and we think that it is alright, that it is somehow a God given direction.
We have a real problem in this country were the wealthy are getting more influence and support by our current government and the poor and middle class is losing ground. We need to change the direction and I truly believe that this is our chance in history to turn it all around, but we have to get smart.
So ask yourself are you really proud to be an American?
We can be proud again!
