Obama on Palin: 'Lipstick on a pig'

Obama's cage has finally been rattled, attacking Republican VP nominee Sarah Palin and calling her -- I kid you not -- a pig.

In Lebanon, Virginia of all places:
The crowd apparently took the "lipstick" line as a reference to Palin, who described the difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull in a single word: "lipstick."
What is it with Southwest Virginia and gaffes that end political careers, anyhow?

UPDATE:  The offending remark on video.

The theme of "lipstick" has been an obsession with Democratic boosters attacking Palin over the last week. Obama staffers are denying a comparison, even though Obama followed up his comments with several sharp, direct attacks on Palin.

According to reporters there in Lebanon, the crowd certainly got the joke (at Palin's expense).

Did that field double as the neighbors yard?

Has anyone heard about this apparent lesbian affair that Governor Palin had in college? You'd think that a little thing like having a gay relationship with a professor would come up during the screening process but maybe McCain needed a woman to be on the ticket so badly that he wasn't as thorough as he should have been?? Now, the press is going to have a field day, and other Christians like me are going to be just as disgusted by her behavior. Those are most certainly not values I share.
