RSSApplying Lipstick to Very Ugly Pigs
Gene Lalor | December 24, 2009
Sarah Palin’s great remark at the Republican National Convention that the only difference between a pitbull and a hockey mom was lipstick was funnier than then-candidate Barack Obama’s subsequent rejoinder that, “You can put lipstick on a pig. It’s still a pig.” 
Whether Obama’s comment was a bitch slap at Palin has been debated ever since. If it was, he obviously hadn’t seen the then-governor of Alaska upclose. 
Regardless, most pigs are generally funnier–and uglier and smellier–than most dogs even if Democrats try to gussy them up with various shades of lipstick.
One such effort was the try by Obama’s vaunted Senior Advisor and officially Assistant to the President for Public Engagement and Intergovernmental Affairs, Valerie Jarrett, to diss the prevailing wisdom articulated by Republican Senator Lindsey Graham that “seedy Chicago politics” pushed through the Senate’s version of Obamacare: http://bit.ly/62MbBn
You may recall Ms. Jarrett. 
Former deputy to Chicago’s Mayor Daley, corruption-insider, and long-time Obama-worshipper, Val took offense at the term “seedy Chicago politics.”
That’s like Daley taking offense at the term since Jarrett was almost as hip-deep in the seed.
Michelle Malkin details some of Jarrett’s involvement in “patient dumping” at the University of Chicago Medical Center and her profitable stint as a slum queen at Habitat, Inc. which Jarrett used to stuff her buddies’ pockets: http://bit.ly/rHZce
Jarrett never directly refuted the remark. Instead she responded with a non-response: ”It was definitely a cheap shot and completely unwarranted,” adding that we should all be focusing on being constructive, after which she defended the president’s intelligence, dedication, work ethic, and his sole accomplishment of 2009, Obamacare.
Thing is, Ms. Jarrett, Obamacare is still far from becoming law, which you could discover from reading the papers.
More to the point, deflecting allegations of the seediness of Chicago politics, which is a proven redundancy and actually understated, is a poor defense of your home town where Jarrrett herself engaged in seamy, squalid, malodorous–and yes, seedy–schemes.
That dawg won’t hunt, Val, and even an application of a vivid L’Oreal Paris red lipstick won’t make Chi-Pig politics, or you, any prettier.
Another shot at lipsticking one ugly pig was made by Senator Chuckie Schumer 
when he tried to sidetrack the obvious, that Senator Ben Nelson had been mightily bribed for his Obamacare vote.
In explaining the Nebraska Medicaid boondoggle negotiated by Big Ben behind Harry Reid’s closed door and with typical Schumerian disdain for the truth, Chuckie in effect whined, “But, Ma, everyone’s doing it!”
More precisely, he was intimating that every state had its hand in the public till and every state benefitted from the Senate bill. “That’s why we have a Senate,” advised Senator Chuckie. “Every state got something.”
That last part is true. Every other state will have to pick up the Medicaid financial slack that Nebraska avoids so every state did get something. Forty-nine got shafted.
New York’s Governor-By-Default David Patterson pointed out that, should the Senate’s bill become law, the near-bankrupt Empire State’s shaft would amount to an out of pocket billion bucks: http://bit.ly/4NCJiB
CBS reported that Iowa’s Dem Senator Tom Harkin felt all the multi-million dollar bribes going on to buy Obamacare votes are just “small stuff.”
That Democrat mindset, no doubt shared by Senator Chuckie, that hundreds of millions of dollars in taxpayer monies are a pittance, a mere bag o’ shells, “small stuff” is the chief reason this nation is on the verge of insolvency.
Painting bribes as “small stuff” is even worse than painting pigs with lipstick.
A final pig-lipsticking comes to us via India where cows may be sacred but pigs are fair game for the spit, assuming most of the billion Indians could find a spit, or a pig, or a roof under which to bbq any lil’ piggy.
Just in the nick of time before the COP15, the UN Copenhagen Climate Conference, was to be consigned to history’s scrapheap of useless, vain gestures, our prez staged a success of sorts on the very brink of failure by pulling off the Copenhagen Coup. 
Claiming concurrence by three-quarters of the BRIC block, Brazil, India, China, plus South Africa, the Obamaians, desparately seeking accolades, departed Denmark with a feigned modicum of achievement.
Not so, said other participants in the phony accord, as predicted here four days ago: http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=1378
. The Brazilian government labelled the accord “disappointing” and complained that the financial assistance it contained from rich to poor countries was insufficient.
. South African Envirnonment Minister Buyelwa Sonjica announced, “We are not defending this, as I have indicated, for us it is not acceptable, it is definitely not acceptable.”
. India and China, knowing where their environmental bread is buttered, offered muted praise for Obama’s semi-accord. That praise was more than tempered by the Swedish rep who called it an unmitigated “disaster:” http://bit.ly/8OEwWs
Accords by definition are friendly agreements. Phony “accords,” such as that Obama accord, are by definition fodder for disintegrative forces which have begun disintegrating and the most gorgeous environment piglet wouldn’t be saved by lipstick, or even eye liner.
President Obama, pampered and indulged and isolated from the real world, suffers from what the ancient Greeks called a fatal flaw: His domestic pampering, indulging, and tempering have led him to believe he is immune from foreigners’ disfavor.
Mr. Obama, your Black idolators may set you free from criticism but objective observers understand who and what you are.
Even with all that piggy lipstick do you really want to kiss or embrace porcines?
