[MeMi] The Pig Remark

I had a discussion this morning with @ewhitten, and while we did both agree it was wrong… I just can’t get over how juvenile of an attack that was. Its like when your parent’s would say “Would you just shut up and listen to me for a second?” and then you would sit there with your mouth closed until “Why aren’t you speaking?”. “Well, because you said shut up!”.

The same thing goes for Obama’s defense. You know he said it so that the John McCain camp would point a finger, and then he would go “But its an expression!!!” ::points thumb at nose::

I just can’t vote for someone that tries to play dirty politics. Yeah, McCain and Palin go around saying stuff about Obama…. but I don’t see Obama defending himself on any of the claims besides “Well… I’m the real profit of CHANGE??!??! Look, they are calling themselves the real changers… but I am!!!”.

Sen. Obama… EVERYONE in this country needs to make a change starting with whomever is elected into office.
