KY Republicans want to send lipstick to Obama
The Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, KY. --Some Kentucky Republicans think Democrat Barack Obama smeared GOP vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin by using the phrase "lipstick on a pig" at a campaign stop.

Now those Republicans want to send 1,000 tubes of lipstick to Obama's campaign headquarters to get back at the Democratic presidential hopeful. The effort is being coordinated by the Jefferson County GOP.

The county's Republican chairman, Brad Cummings, said Wednesday it's Obama who has said that words do matter. Cummings says he considered Obama's comment a direct slap at Palin.

Cummings says Republicans across Kentucky are being contacted to join in sending the pile of lipstick tubes to Obama headquarters.

Obama made the remark Tuesday when talking about Republican presidential rival John McCain and President Bush - not Palin. And McCain himself has used the same metaphor in the past.

b. if these guys want to contribute to the world they live in in a positive way instead of their usual disgusting demeaning subhuman way, they should spend their time and money sending gift items to the troops in Iraq, not lipstick to a Presidential Campaign...

What does the title of your post have to do with what you posted here? Am I missing something?

Regardless, I agree with Randys. They should channel their faux outrage for some good deed, like sending packages to our troops...minus the lipstick.

He did provide a link, it's an AP story. All anybody has to do to verify it, is go to the Associated Press and look it up.

oik, well that isnt a link exactly, but good enough for now...you want to cut and paste the link that is in the window at the very top of your screen when you are on the page you want to link to

and yes it would help if you would title threads better

however, having said all that, please continue to post, we want you to feel at home here and we appreciate your contributions
