"You can put lipstick on a pig," he 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."
Like hell the mainstream media will make a stink over this. After all, it's ok for ultra-far-left-wing extremists to say such things. As far as the Left itself is concerned, of course!
What, does Barack Obama hate women and older folks? To whom else but Sarah Palin and John McCain is he referring? A veilled slur against a woman as a pig wearing lipstick and against an older man as a fish wrapped in paper? Implying that older folks necessarily "stink"?
He's now outdone himself and his earlier "bitter", "cling to guns and religion" slur against a group of folks for whom he obviously harbors some degree of disdain.
You know, this sounds like something Mahmoud Ahmadinejad would say... you know, the tyrannical, Islamofascist president of Iran, the guy who promised to wipe out entire nations and races of people... and with whom Mr. Obama has indicated he would be willing to sit down and talk with....
And what kind of president would say words like "gonna"?
This guy is the best the Left has to offer?
If so, bring him on.
