Very good, HO! That is true! :thumbsup Obama did too! Hehehehehe!

I'm not for Obama in any way, but let's at least be honest and not be so appalled at something he says when 'our boy' has done the same thing! LOL!

No, not the same thing and Obama used it on the heels of Palin's comment. That was not wise and it looks intended.

Let's listen to McCain. There is no way you can take that statement in the same vein as Obama's.

PO, McCain was referencing the health care plan that Hillary dreamed up and made the pig statement. There are those who believe he was referencing Hillary and others say he was speaking about her health plan. Who knows?

I don't disagree about Obama's intent that most here seem to share. But nobody except MikeinAR mentioned McCain making the same statement and being appalled that Obama said what he said.

I'm not shocked. He's an idiot and proving it more and more. He talks and talks and doesn't say much of anything but attacks and insults. Does anyone know what he's about, other than 'change'? LOL!

Totally different. McCain just said it like a "saying". Obama said it, then paused for reaction.....which lead me to believe he was digging at what she had said about the pit bull.

I guess it's all in the perspective. I haven't listened to McCain saying it, but did read comments even from conservatives that said he seemed to be referencing Hillary and/or her health care plan.

I do agree with you about how Obama said it. I don't think there's any doubt about that.

Would have been better if he called her a pit bull with lipstick....LOL!

You are right on the last statement. Obama is not that stupid to say something like that when her "lipstick" clip gets played over and over and over and over and over and over on the Internet and every time you turn on the television.

That was not an oversight on Obama's part. I am completely convinced that they knew or thought they could buffer their way out of that. It was too easy and they took it. It backfired though.

Exactly and calculatingly saw how he could explain himself out of it. Totally so obvious.
