“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”

I suppose you’re right if you use an eight foot wide paint brush to do the connecting. And some super-dooper fill-in-the-blanks paint.

Even McCain has admitted he lied about Obama calling Palin a pig.

I will agree that the media is beginning to show a bias against McCain. But you need to realize that he has earned that bias totally by himself. He started with a very supportive media and threw that advantage away with a series of lies that even the most die-hard right winger has had trouble swallowing.

(The Bridge to Nowhere lie has now been repeated 35 times on the campaign trail since it was demonstrated to be false.)

I can understand that some people like you, Howard, would like a right wing/Republican president. But please ask yourself how badly you want that outcome.

Here you’ve got a guy who has abandoned most of the positions he held as Senator McCain and embraced positions 180 degrees from those as Candidate McCain. Elect him and who might President McCain be? He has demonstrated no commitment to his positions. Will the Senator, the Candidate, or someone entirely different show up for work?

And you can’t ask him what he might do if elected. He just doesn’t give truthful answers since the Straight Talk Express crashed and burned.

Sorry, Howard. You’ve got a very defective candidate this time out.

It’s interesting how the dems continually slam Karl Rove, until his statements reinforce their vitriol for the republicans. 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.

I am having Sarah Palin nightmares. And so it seems are many others…

“Drill Drill Drill.” I think of teeth when I think of drills. I think of rape. I think of destruction. I think of domination. I think of military exercises that force mindless repetition, emptying the brain of analysis, doubt, ambiguity or dissent. I think of pain.

Joe, you should hire Eric Roston Pretty good ones. Not ever watching TV, I have no comment on “mousy”.

(I’ve actually got Roston’s book on my reading pile, but that pile a bit tall still. Tottering in fact.)

“I welcome similar zingers from readers.”

* This is like being called dogmatic by Phyllis Schlafly.
* This is like being called corrupt by Jack Abramoff.
* This is like being called mousy by Sarah Palin.
