KSFO's Sussman suggested Obama's "lipstick on a pig" comment may be his Muslim father's "genetic DNA welling up inside of him"

Summary: On The Lee Rodgers Show, a caller suggested that Sen. Barack Obama's remark that "you can put lipstick on a pig; it's still a pig" was directed at Gov. Sarah Palin and said: "[I]t's a little indicative of a Muslim attitude towards women that's creeping up, you know, and he just can't help but say it, how he feels." Brian Sussman responded: "Well, there's no question that Muslims, at least the religious ones, look at women as second-class citizens. ... I don't know if it was his father's genetic DNA welling up inside of him or not, but I'll tell you something: It was stupid."

Well, there's no question that MMFA posters, at least the intelligent ones, look at Brian Sussman as a fourth-class human being....

Gee ... It's too bad Obama didn't even remotely call Palin a pig. ... Or call McCain an old fish.

He's how to  "talk to a conservative."

Lay out for them all the ways in which muslim countries are "bad," getting their eager agreement the whole way thourgh:

1) Treat women badly

2) People rights co-opted by the mullahs, no protection under the law

3) No respect for other countries / cultures

4) Intolerant of other religions (persecutions, even executions)

5) Hatred of freedom, progress, censored press, etc...

etc... ect... (it's not too hard, you get the idea...)

And just when they've agreed with ALL the BAD THINGS about Muslim countries ask them this:

"So why are you pushing so hard for US to become MORE like THEM?"

(This is not a war of CHRISTIAN vs. MUSILM folks.  It's about FREEDOM vs. THEOCRACY.  It's about PERSONAL LIBERTY vs. RELIGIOUS EXTREMISM.  I don't care what LABEL you put on your system of medieval superstitions, ANYTIME religion dominates government, it's BAD.)

I wonder how this talking sphincter explains Grampy's use of the same expression? Is Grampy a secret Muslim, too?

I always love the listerner comments with these mid-level shock jocks.  They make the jocks almost sound intelligent.  Only almost though and only by comparison.

I think PigBoy Limbaugh gets some kind of sick pleasure from exposing and demonstrating the utter stupidity of his listeners. In fact, this attitude seems to be pervasive among the High Command of the Republican slime machine. I keep going back to Karl Rove's complete and blatant reversal on the relative qualifications of Tim Kaine/Sarah Palin. He knows he's being a total hypocrite, but he does it with a sordid grin, because he knows the Republican Idiot Base won't even notice .....or care. This Pig Lipstick fake outrage is just the latest example of their cynical willingness to run on lies and nonsense.

This is why Republicans keep winning Presidential elections. Their bought-and-paid-for Media advantage is almost insurmountable. Plus, they don't mind lying.

" I don't know if it was his father's genetic DNA welling up inside of him or not, but I'll tell you something: It was stupid."

Oh yeah, I forgot. Obama's father was African.

That genetic DNA is the worst kind of DNA of all! And when you've got Moozlem DNA coursing through your cells, that's just a time bomb.

One of the trolls, possibly AnutterAmerican posted recently something along the lines of "Muslims run in Obama's family". Maybe he went to the same Jesus Science college as this guy.

You know, when John McCain used this phrase for Clinton's SCHIP, they never called him a sexist.

There's a rumor going around that McSame is a former P.O.W. Well, if so, then that settles it... you can't call a former P.O.W. sexist. It inoculates him against all criticism.

Listening for cogent political analysis on this show is kind of like listening for a discussion of high-energy physics on a cooking show.
