Tony on Lipstick on Pigs

Uncategorized — September 10, 2008 at 7:15 pm

My old friend Tony has it right when he says:

Some commentators have suggested he straightforwardly implied that Palin was a pig. Which would be insulting, but doesn’t sound sexist to me. A more subtle (although more sensible) jab would be the following implied argument:

1. A pig with lipstick is still a pig
2. Palin (according to her acceptance speech) is a pitbull with lipstick
3. Palin is still a pitbull

That’s arguably unfavorable, except that Palin made the comparison herself.
