Dont blame Brandon for posting the facts.

I bet there are many in your audience that have differing opinions than you. To me, your continued snide remarks are a complete turn off. You probably could care less, which is certainly your right. However, it seems that it would be a waste to offend readers who are interested in your work, but don't share your ideology. If you have an "everything but politics" feed, I'd be happy to switch. Otherwise, I may have to consider unsubscribing at least until after the election. Sincerely, Kiliman Brandon,

Then if you listen to the audio of the speech in PA the audience alughes when Senator Obama uses the line. Draw your own opionions on it.

Odd how the GOPers didn't pick up on that. Isn’t “lipstick on a pig” a phrase first used by McCain about a year ago? Odd how the GOPers didn’t pick up on that.

I put the entire quote into the post. There is CLEARLY no association to Palin. If you have evidence of a video or transcript where Obama made such an association, please do provide it, instead of being spoonfed out-of-context quotations from the RNC. Huh?

In fact the quote from Mr. Obama has gotten a huge reaction from his party that it wasn't a sexism comment, although if you listen to the tape it seems everyone understood exactly what he said and meant.
