Pigs and Pitbulls in Lipstick

So with the Kerry campaign, we had the Swiftboat Captains for Truth crap. Now, there's another swifty campaign against Obama, led by none other than...Swift--former Massachusetts acting Governor Jane Swift. This is McCain's new Palin Truth Squad.

Apparently she's been assigned the job of accusing Obama of sexism for everything that comes out of his mouth. The Truth Squad says everything anyone says to question Palin or say anything against her is automatically sexist. If Obama started accusing everyone of racism for every criticism against him, he'd be long gone. How come the Republicans get away with such sleaze? The Democrats have the integrity to avoid such ludicrous tactics, and how come integrity doesn't win elections anymore?

Obama says: "You can put lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig," commenting on McCain's claim that Republicans will bring change to the country. VP nominee Palin of course made the comment comparing hockey moms to pitbulls with lipstick. Swift says Obama called Palin a pig and is therefore sexist.

These are the Republican's devious and exploitative strategies. They play the gender card in a most egregious, dishonest, and insulting game. They are Jokers dealing the Suicide King.

McCain, by the way, has used the same expression when referring to Clinton's health plan released last year. Apparently he is sexist too.
