    McCain Calls Hillary a Pig?

    Posted:
    09/10/08
    What's good for the goose is good for the gander. If the McCain campaign really wants to play this intellectually dishonest inference game, then how do they explain this?



    Andrew Sullivan is right:

    We are being asked to believe that he [Obama] called Sarah Palin a pig. If the people making that accusation have half a brain they know it's not true. This is not a question of interpretation. It is a fact. So now we find out again that John McCain is prepared to tell an absolute lie--in public, verifiable, uncontestable.

    He does not have the minimal public integrity to be president of the United States.

    Never mind the fact that McCain has a history of telling overtly sexist jokes about Chelsea Clinton's looks and women enjoying rape, he and his surrogates have the chutzpah to call Obama sexist for using the exact same phrase he used about Hillary. I guess McCain figures, damn the truth, whatever works. His presidential ambition knows no bounds.

    CBS has also asked the McCain campaign to stop running its ad featuring Katie Couric because it is just plain "misleading." Yeah, you could say that.
