I just watched Obama in Norfolk explain away the complaints about his “lipstick on a pig” remark yesterday as “swiftboating” and “phony outrage”. I couldn’t help but chuckle.<\/p>\n
The same guy who complained about jokes about his jug ears, the same guy who sees racism in every word spoken against him, the same guy who uses John McCain’s “100 years” crack and his joke about a $5 million-a-year income making an American middle class. The same guy who trots out the supposed McCain coded quote “…and did I mention he has a funny name?”<\/p>\n
The same guy who doesn’t want us to question his patriotism. The same guy whose middle name we can’t\u00a0 mention.The same guy who complains when we ask questions about his relationships with criminals, terrorists and racists.<\/p>\n
The same guy who complains about all of these things has the unmitigated gall to defend his own words against a candidate by blaming someone else for phony outrage – and claims this turns people off from politics and distracts voters from real issues. He must’ve practiced the speech in a mirror.<\/p>\n
This year’s King of Phony Outrage is outraged again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
