NewsBusters.org had an interesting article this morning, on its website,
“Did Obama Steal his 'Lip Stick on a Pig' Speech from a Political Cartoon?” The article cited as its source the FreeRepublic. Below is the video and transcript of the remarks in question, as well as the cartoon in question.
Here is the transcript of the YouTube video above:
"Let let let's just list this for a second.
"John McCain says he's about change too. Exce- and and so I guess his whole angle is - watch out, George Bush - except for economic policy, healthcare policy, tax policy, education policy, foreign policy, and Karl-Rove-style politics, we're really gonna shake things up in Washington.
"That's not change.
"That's that's just callin' sumpin' the same thing somethin' different.
“But you know, you can't, you know, you you can put, ah, lipstick on a pig, it's still a pig.”
Obama’s Plagiarism?
A Tom Toles Cartoon found in the Washington Post, 9/5/08
Notice carefully the content of the cartoon:
“Watch out, Mr. Bush!
“With the exception of economic policy and energy policy and social issues and tax policy and foreign policy and supreme court appointments and Rove-style politics.
“We're coming in there to shake things up.”
Besides the obvious plagiarism, which Obama's "ruining" mate, Joe Biden, is also known to have done in the past, was this attack personal?
Was Barack Hussein Obama referring to Sarah Palin with his remarks? To Muslims the pig represents uncleanness and all that is an abhorrent. Did Obama have in mind Palin when he made this wise crack? In another NewsBusters’ story this morning, “Mitchell Laughs Off the Lipstick: ‘He’s Not Talking About Palin’” the unabashed Obama-promoting MSNBC reporters-supporters ardently defended Obama as not making any pointed remarks at Palin. I am not so sure. I think that the audience knew that the lipstick remark was a clear reference to Palin based on their standing ovation (see the video link in the NewsBusters' story.) Obama is a hardcore political thug, he plays dirty, he will say and do anything to gain power. Chicago politics developed this radical power-hungry socialist.
The lipstick is Hillary Clinton and the pig is Obama!
ReplyDeleteHillary said that McCain's choice of Palin for VP was like getting iceberg to save the Titanic.
What are bunch of losers! They are all the same!
