Pigs in Drag
By Pake Shlake BandIt was poetry time in our last Game Time, with presidential hopefuls as the subject. The votes are in, and Sid’s poem about Cheney in lipstick wins. I hope the infamous pig in lipstick was not offended.
Speaking of make-up-wearing porcines, we thought we would let you all weigh in on the debate. You get to make a headline for the “lipstick on a pig” comment and the aftermath. What’s that? You don’t know what I am talking about? What have you been watching the last 3 days? Certainly not the cable news networks! Well, I guess we should help you out. Here is a recap, courtesy of the AP:
Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama is accusing John McCain’s campaign of “lies and phony outrage and Swift-boat politics” in claiming he had made a sexist comment against vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin. Obama on Wednesday called the Republicans’ criticism of his use of the phrase “lipstick on a pig” a “made-up controversy.”
Here is our headline:
