OK, this whole Obama “lipstick on a pig” thing has gotten way out of hand. I mean, the McCain camp can cry “sexist” all they want, but the truth is, John McCain used the exact same phrase at least twice this year to describe Hillary Clinton’s ill-fated universal health care plan during the Clinton years.
Don’t believe me? Watch the video here. And if that’s not enough flagrant “Maverick” hypocrisy for you, check out this clip here.
What really kills me is that, apparently, it’s OK for McCain to use the phrase in the same sentence with the words “Hillary” and “Clinton”, but when Barack Obama uses the exact same phrase — as it was meant to be used, by the way! — with no mention of nutty old Sarah Palin anywhere in sight, he is branded a sexist? Jesus…what a bleeping joke!
Luckily for Christine and I, there was happier animal news to report this week in the form of these crazy cute pro-Obama political buttons we found on CafePress.com. Yay!
I mean, really, who even knew animals were interested in this whole presidential election thing? All I can say is that it truly warms my bleeding liberal heart to know that if they could, cats and dogs (and even llamas!) would totally vote for Obama. Rock on, animals!
Now, if we could just figure out how to pin these buttons on our cats without drawing blood, we’d be all set…
make. see. eat. do. 
Daisy has weighed in on Sarah Palin on my most recent blog entry…
I’ve heard that cats LOVE wearing sweaters, what better place for an Obama pin, problem solved. Can you just imagine the “happy claws” action!
Mistress of Slack: I always knew Daisy was cool, but your post on the Palin front totally confirmed it! Rock on, Daisy!
Danielle: Ha! Totally…I’ll have Christine start working on some kitty sweaters this weekend! 🙂
One of my cats kept going on and on about voting for a third party candidate, until she found out it was McKinney, not McKitty.
Ha! Hilarious! All I can say is that I’m glad Ross Purr-ot isn’t running this year or we’d all be screwed! 🙂
What’s with Obama these days? That guy is losing momentum fast.
Seems Sarah Palin has injected some new life into the McCain campaign.
Starting to get worried.
