Obama Lipstick on a Pig Comment a Cheap Shot at Sarah Palin ?

Last week Sarah Palin joked that the only difference between a 'hockey mom' like herself and a pitbull was lipstick. Today on a campaign rally in Lebanon, VA, Barack Obama made these comments to his fans: "You can put lipstick on a pig," he said as the crowd cheered. "It's still a pig." This is a sly dig at Palin as it has been made whilst Sarah Palin's comment of last week is fresh in the public mind. There appears to be a subtle subtext here that Sarah Palin is like a pig. The crowd appears to have taken the "lipstick" line as a reference to Palin. Finally the cat is out of the bag.

There is a vicious Democrat campaign afoot-aided and abetted by supporters in the liberal media- to demonise and smear Sarah Palin. As far as Obama himself is concerned subtle hints can suffice. Barack Obama has already had to apologise to a Michigan TV reporter after he called her "sweetie" and dodged her question about autoworkers.
WXYZ-TV's Peggy Agar shouted a question to the Democratic presidential candidate during his appearance at a Chrysler LLC plant in this auto-making suburb of Detroit.
Agar asked Obama what is he "going to do to help American autoworkers." "Hold on one second, sweetie," Obama replied. "We'll do a press (availability), thanks." He did not reply to Agar's question.
Obama has problems with powerful women who get in his way. Just ask Hillary Clinton.

Obama calls reporter Sweetie and refuses to answer her question on how he would help Detroit auto workers

Here Obama patronizes a female reporter who asked him how he proposed to help autoworkers in Detroit, Michigan. Barack displays his usual smugness and arrogance which puts him at odds with blue -collar voters.

It is an echo of his bittergate comments in San Francisco "You got into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing's replaced them," .................................they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations."

Obama as usual avoided the hard question. He has no solutions to the problems of the Michigan autoworkers.
