All day long, today, 9/11, the Main Stream Media is sponsoring an Obamapig roast in lower Manhattan, in the pit where the Twin Towers used to be. After seven years, the New York real estate developers have decided the space should be use for something.
Participants will be able to slather the pig with lipstick, called "Old Guiliani Fire Engine Red". Rumor has it that the pig is a 40 year old Vietnamese bore that was shot recently by Sarah Palin. George Bush will be on hand to lie about the entire event to a Fox News reporter and the Dept.of Homeland Security will be on hand to serve Kool-Aid to everyone. Everyone will be required to remove their shoes and donate them to the TSA.
All political backstabbing and mudslinging has been suspended until tomorrow, when John McCain is expected to announce that Sarah Palin's pastor has spoken to him tongues, healed his cancer and granted him eternal life...at the rest home of his choosing in Arizona.
Praise the Lord.

This has taken all day
First of all, "Shoulda Stood In Bed" got published on OEN today. The rest of what is here is stuff you might have missed. I was, of course, compelled to comment. As the say, take a deep breath.....

We are not stupid, we are manipulated.
I had something to say here. I sort of agree. I hate it when that happens. Your turn.
This is really good. And I got my two cents in here, as well:

Sarah Palin Pisses Me Off
Catchy title and one among many on the same subject.
This is some good news:
http://thinkprogress.org/2008/09/10/maddow-king-beck/
She has her own show (right after Olbermann, weeknights, MSNBC-TV) now and is off to running start. Kicking everybody's ass. Whoopee!
This is fun, too ( I got this third hand):
www.salon.com/opinion/Keillor/2008/09/10/palin.
This is the awful truth, told straight from Minnesota. The only thing he doesn't call her on is calling Eskimoes "Arctic Arabs".
Then we have this:

I can't think of a better place for the General to unload a batch of carefully worded bullshit than on Fox. Earlier this week, he said, "I did the best I could". I think that means, "We screwed up".

McCain/Palin Campaign Relies on Lazy Thinking and Prejudice to Win
Dave Lindorff is a remarkable guy and I don't always agree with him. But this piece says it all, well. "Lazy thinking" is a big problem. As I said, the only thing worse than lazy thinking is people who think they think. Pass me over that there six-pack and gimme two quarts of earl.
The news today has been all about a remark Obama made yesterday, about the "changes" McCain claims he will make in Washington, if elected. Obama used an old phrase, one used earlier by McCain himself, in the primaries: "You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig". The McCain camp went nuts! Just a few days ago Sarah Palin had been mouthing off about pit bulls and lipstick and the GOP decided this Obama remark was a terrible implied insult to Palin (actually a few days ago, lots of peole thought HER remarks were insulting to pit bulls). Anyway...
The debate has been raging since early morning on MSNBC and is still on now (4:45). By now, everyone knows that this phrase is common , especially among hog farmers and even more especially in the south. What everyone has carefully avoided is mentioning what you get when you combine the elements of lip-"stick" and "pig", which is "pigsticking". If you didn't grow up on a farm with pigs, or don't know many hog farmers, you won't know what that is, and, trust me, you don't want to. But suffice it to say, that it's time for someone to get Obama a good, sharp knife and let him get down to business.
And did you know that, by an official count, Sarah Palin has lied about earmarks and the Bridge to Nowhere 27 times since the nomination? She may not be counting, but everyone else is.
Hurricane Ike is coming. All hell has not frozen over but is coming this way and we're doin' the best we can.

Shouda stayed in Bed
Lipstick, pigs and pit bulls, race cards and sexism. Bridges to Nowhere (and the moose she rode in on), sex ed in kindergarten, wheelchair gaffes, change, Obama's change, McCain's Obama's change, loose change, no change. "Country First", "USA,USA!". Pathetic plastic patriotism. Useless emotional orgasms. Palin rumors and pregnant teens, lies and rumors of lies. Then more lies, dead wolves shot from airlanes and even more moose jokes. Questions of age and mental stability, abuses of power, maligning of community organizers and leaking swift boats. Lobbyists feigning to demean lobbyists, Rovian manuevering and Obama gone centrist and bland. McCain piles one preposterous myth on top of another and everyone swallows it or publishes it, hookers, one-liners and stinkers. Someone said today that "Obama is in the faculty lounge", thinking about it. Maybe sad, maybe true.
America is daft. America only wants to know about Brittany's underwear. America can't pay attention (does EVERYONE have ADD?). American can't stay on topic. America thinks this whole election is an TV reality show. If it isn't sensational, it won't make the news and no one will talk about it. The biggest irony is that John Edwards finally proved he had some balls and we promptly forgot about him. Life is hard and then we all will die, dead from over-tittilation and lack of substance. America is asleep (except for Kucinich). The Russians are coming. But America is happy as a pig in @#^*. So is Joe Lieberman.
McCain will win, the Repubs will have another hooker and a beer, and the Democrats will act surprised. Palin will become VEEP and gut the environment, announcing it in tongues. Nothing will change we will still have two wars (maybe three), a sinking economy, no health care, higher unemployment and the gap between the rich and poor wil get bigger by the day. We will continue to socialize more programs like Fannie and Freddie, making it harder for the poor and middle to use them. We will go on privatizing everything else and helping the rich own more and control more. The media will approve all of it. Murdoch will buy more media. No one will object.
And everyone will wake up next March and be shocked.
Have you actually listened to Sarah Palin? She sounds like your shrill, abusive mother, your crazy old aunt or your whiny, troublesome sister-in-law. She prays to God. I pray FOR God: he has to listen to her.
Oh. Sorry. I forgot about that oil thing. But that is OK: we have T. Boone Pickens.
