Lipstick
The thing is, if you listen to the whole quote you know he was talking about McCain’s policies, but this phrase was chosen specifically to harken back to Palin’s own lipstick comment. This man is supposed to be brilliant and a great orator, yet either he was too stupid to realize people would jump on this, or, did in fact want to evoke Palin with this comment.

Everyone seems to be missing that John McCain used the pig/lipstick reference way before Obama (you can find it on Youtube). John McCain used it when talking about Hillary but I guess that was OK! The McCain camp stated that any reasonable person would understand that McCain was not referring to Hillary Clinton personally. They said McCain was using a figure of speech, an idiom and the idiom was understood clearly by most everyone except Hillary supporters.
Well hello? Are we to believe McCain did not mean it personally but Obama meant it as a personal slam to Palin?
1. GROW UP!
2. You can put lipstick on all four of them but I don’t want any of them to be President of the United States of America.

I guess I should have been more specific. I meant to say that the ones that are carrying on and on about it should grow up and find something else to worry about.
