    Sarge,

    The key word there was "thoughtful", not "creative". The law of parsimony suggests that Obama meant what he said and not what he didn't say.

    Helter Skelter,

    Thank you for your permission to spin this any way I want. But I neither need your permission nor do I need to spin anything.

    Everybody does not know that Obama was making reference to Palin. In fact, thoughtful people are more likely to understand that he was…

    Helter Skelter,

    That's nonsense. One will assume no such thing. Some people will assume that and most of those people will have done poorly on the Miller Analogies Test.

    People with something on the ball might assume that he had picked up on Palin's rework of the lipstick/pig quote either…

    RomeoRamenII,

    Keep on beating that drum. I think the concussive shock has impaired your judgment, however.

    The only conclusion that analytic folk can arrive at is that McCain is so bereft of things to say that he has to make things up. After what he went through with Bush in…

    RomeoRamenII,

    I think it is very probable that Obama supporters were aware of Palin's previous remark. No doubt it enhanced their appreciation of Obama's comment. However, they are very clear that the remark applies to McCain's empty promise of change--which you can grasp if you really listen to what Obama…

    RomeoRamenII,

    Obama's claim doesn't pass the smell test if you have some nasal pathology or if you haven't listened to what Obama actually said. Otherwise, it passes just fine. It is McCain's comment that stinks to high heaven.

    Hmmm.... Let's see now....

    Major Premise: The difference between a hockey mom and a pit bull is lipstick. (Palin)

    Minor Premise: Calling the continuation of Bush's policies a change by making minor tweaks is like putting "lipstick on a pig". (Obama)

    Conclusion: Obama has insulted Palin. (McCain)

    I'm hoping for…

    TonyUS,

    Don't be insulting. I think I have an understanding of borders, sovereignty and separatists. But you are right that I do not like the term "big bad Russia". It is pejorative and meaningless.

    As far as the issue of genocide in Kosovo is concerned, that was not an issue…

    adaydream,

    I don't think of George W. Bush as being a strong asset, either--at least, not to the country. And I basically agree with what you have said in your post.

    My point was that he can fail and still be an asset to his party and McCain if he…

    RomeoRamenII,

    When did Obama call Palin a pig? Do you never tire of making things up? of attempting to divert and distort?

    The expression "to put lipstick on a pig" is at least 20 years old, probably older, and the clear meaning is "to make a meaningless, prettifying change". That…
