SeattleUte has a little shameless behaviour in the past
Default Has the outrage here been phony?

Not at all. Lipstick is serious business.

First time I read it, it seemed clear to me he was calling Palin a pig. Am I outraged that he called Palin a pig? Not particularly. It was juvenile and something I'd expect from a second grader but I didn't think it was particularly outrageous.

It's not that outrageous. This probably is.

Obama needs to send a message to all his supporters: Shut Up!

Pretty much all phony.

Now that Tex has changed his avatar to a pig with lipstick, that almost proves it is phony.

This youtube clip of McCain talking about Hillary's proposals is pretty outrageous. I am offended.

After Palin's speech at the convention, "lipstick" is our word. You best not use it.

Of all religions that I know, the one that most vehemently and persuasively defies and denies the reality of death is the original Mormonism of the Prophet, Seer and Revelator, Joseph Smith.

I saw a sign that said, "Read My Lipstick..."

I thought that was pretty good.
