Obama infers Palin is a pig?

I saw another question with no source on this so I thought I would provide one.

Do you think this is an idirect reference about Palin? The crowd seemed to think so.

    WOW!! Thanks for the link. What a freaking A$$HOLE. I just can't stand that AntiChrist Spawn of Satan. The more he speaks, the more I hate him. There he goes, using 'good judgement' again and hanging his self. He's a piece of $hit and he keeps proving it.

    It is definately a reference to Palin.

    Not important though, we've heard remarks like this from politicians in the past. Same old politics, nothing new or different here.

    WHERE IS THE REST OF IT?

    He actually said- verbatim:

    "You can put lipstick on a pig. It's still a pig. You can wrap up an old fish in a piece of paper and call it change. It's still going to stink after eight years. We've had enough."

    No, he didn't. That was a creative editing job on the video. He was clearly talking about the REFORM RHETORIC of the McCain-Palin, not the people themselves.

    As aside from that, he's not the kind of person to make those types of personal insults, especially in public. He's too measured with his words.

    Get real people. Thats a famous quote, you dopes. Did you even grow up in America?? Obama was making an analogy through quotes. If you think it was intentional you have some severe security issues.

    I try to warn Obama's handlers. If you let this guy keep speaking without a teleprompter and a carefully crafted speech (written by someone else besides him) he is going to keep sticking his foot in his mouth, alienating women and just shrinking in stature.

    Great title for a Sci-Fi Movie:

    Wow, no.

    The pig metaphor was in reference to her record, that she may doll it up and say she's just like McCain, even though she accepted $27 million in earmarks for her town alone and was for the bridge to nowhere before she was against it amongst other things.

    Obama didn't call her a pig lol.

    He is totally Obnoxious. The more I hear his insults and the more I learn the real truth about Palin, the more I'm determined to vote for McCain.

    You know that's an old expression. My grandfather used to use it. Still, it is timely. Oh, well. If the shoe fits...
