It’s Still a (Sexist) Pig

QUOTE OF THE DAY: “The other side, suddenly, they’re saying ‘we’re for change too,” Obama told the crowd. “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.” Barack Obama, 9/9/08.

Yeah, Barack — we’ve had enough too.

So, WHAT DID OBAMA REALLY MEAN? Why did he chuckle and wait for the jeering laughter from his crowd of followers?

Obama, I think today even you are starting to realize that you have 99 problems and  a “bitch” certainly IS one.

UPDATE 9/10/08 AT 12:06pm eastern: In response to the furor over yesterday’s “lipstick on a pig” remark, today Obama told us, “Spare me the phony outrage.” Well, okay then. We’ll spare you the phony outrage Barack and give you the authentic variety on November 4th. That sure will be Sweet-ie.

Nothing On Top for Obama in 2008. 

Vote for Democrats for every slot you in good conscience can. But vote for Obama? After what he did to Hillary Clinton? After he didn’t even consider her or her 18 million voters when he chose Joe BoringBiden. After what he did to Alice Palmer? After what he did to his grandmother? After what he did to Geraldine Ferraro? After what he did to the Sweetie Reporter? After what he did to Sarah Palin? After what he did and continues to do to all of us?

I don’t think so. No matter what shrieking shade of purple or red lipstick the increasingly Desperate One tries to put on today to spin his way out of this one, IT IS STILL A SEXIST PIG.

Oh, and because I just can’t resist taking one more jab at these hate-filled demagogues who have used every slimy tactic in the Swamp Misogyny guidebook to get us to shut up, sit down, and do as we’re told, let’s put some lipstick on this Sexist Pig.

C’mon, you’ve got to be kidding I’m never in the top ten, lol. GREAT post Murphy, “as usual!”

TOPIC: “This just in” – in an email from Donna Brazile:

When Barack Obama says that change needs to happen from the bottom up, he’s talking about millions of Americans rising up to grab a hold of our nation’s destiny.

This is your chance to do just that.

There are only weeks until the election. Please renew your commitment to the DSCC right now.

Sincerely,

Donna Brazile

Hey everyone!

I wasn’t on Puma’s blog yesterday. Yesterday, Sept., 9th, I took some fun time for my birthday. What did I miss yesterday. Did we do a prowl?

Can anyone tell me for my list – besides Georgia and North Carolina
has Obama pulled his ads because he feels he will not win there – I
would assume he is not advertising in Arizona and Utah – Colorado and

Joe Biden’s comments about stem cell research and special needs children shows how low the Nobama campaign has sunk. Remember earlier in the primaries when Bo told people to lay off his wife?

i understand he has pulled from texas too
i don’t see any ads here in the north – maybe other areas cold chime in with the media in their areas. my info comes from the dem party peeps.

#15 Caracal Carrie on 09.10.08 at 11:07 am

Hills

I added a section for the Delegate situation this morning and I am right now compiling links for that into something understandable.

I have taken a second out on the caucus fraud part to hopefully receive a return email from Dr. Lynette Long.
If you have any delegate links send away!

#16 antifish on 09.10.08 at 11:07 am

Repost from downstairs:

#259 Gogandalf,

Good morning. Not sure if this is what you are asking for? This is the info on the states he pulled out of.

Barack Obama has pulled his TV ads from seven states that voted Republican in 2004, including the perennial swing state of Florida and two others — North Carolina and Virginia — he had been aggressively targeting as part of his 50-state strategy.

The move could suggest that Obama is returning to a more traditional game plan of focusing on key battleground states to reach the 270 Electoral College votes to win the presidency.

Obama’s campaign told Fox News Network, which first reported the shift, that it is a temporary suspension during the Democratic convention. The other states are Alaska, Georgia, Montana, and North Dakota.

Sarah Simmons, McCain’s strategy director, cited advertising spending and polling data that she said shows that in the states where Obama has spent time and bought ads, his poll numbers dropped.

Hey Pumas – some additional things -

I told my fellow judges yesterday about the ebay auction for the DNC – they thought it was hilarious – ;)

I unsubscribed and requested to be removed from the DNC list right after the May 31st mtg – didn’t get any more requests from the DNC for contributions – only from the MN DFL bunch – well, guess what was in my mail yesterday – yup you guessed it – a request for money – “I’m committed to Supporting Our 68_Day Drive to Victory” – OMG – the future of our country depends upon my contribution – party must be getting desparate – other unsubscribers get ready for mail –
I plan to print out some PUMA money & send it back – may seem petty but like the old sayin’ goes – payback’s a bitch……………..

Also saw a clip of MO dancing on Ellen’s show – boy – she is getting a BIG ass – sorry – whatever she had on really emphasized – she needs fashion help – but part of her little dance were little fingers flicks off the shoulders – now what does that remind you of? I’m beginning to loathe her as much as cupcake…………..

Back later………………….

#19 murphy on 09.10.08 at 11:08 am

thanks gogandalf!

mlhath — I agree. I am TOTALLY UNCOMFORTABLE with that picture.

I am TOTALLY UNCOMFORTABLE with Hillary being called a castrator, a nut-cracker, a harpie, and a bitch. I am TOTALLY UNCOMFORTABLE with another powerful woman in politics being indirectly referred to as a farm animal.

TOTALLY UNCOMFORTABLE.

And until the freaks from Swamp Misogyny, like Obama and Kos and the Democratic Underbelly STOP FEELING TOTALLY COMFORTABLE calling us Pigs, and Whores, and Sluts, and Dominatrixes, and Bitches, and Bad Mothers, and C**ts, and Ex-wives, and Avenging Girlfriends, I intend to fight back with every mocking, ridiculing, brash tool in the book to expose them.

antifish,
re your post:
Could Clinton have Palin-proofed Dems?
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0908/13317.html

They had the wrong headline, it wasn’t Clinton, it was sexism, pure & simple. Oh, and watch the next thing they do is try to get us to fall in line via Hillary. PUMA’s, when you talk to people be sure & communicate loud and clear the answer is no & it only makes us angrier when they pressure Hillary!

#21 antifish on 09.10.08 at 11:09 am

I loved this part of the story. Seems wherever people get to know BO, they reject him. BWAAAAAAHAAAAHAAAA!!!!!!!!

Actually, I’m not entirely comfortable with that picture. Wouldn’t want that to make the rounds , IMHO.

I would agree with mlhath — this picture is over the top and could/will be used to dismiss PUMA’s as unprofessional (and, dare I say, bitter).

A tasteful head-shot of NObama with a lovely shade of orange lipstick would be a classier, more appropriate shot at the DNC’s smug, misogynistic Messiah.

Murphy — Subtle mockery is more powerful than the in-your-face brash approach, imho.

a coupla Re-posts, then I have to get to work:

TOPIC: Electoral Map

http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/06/10/electoral.map/index.html

If Hillary were running, she’d win in California, Texas, Ohio and Florida. That’d be 136 votes right there.

The Democrats could have it all, “if only” they would put Hillary back into her rightful position as Presidential nominee!

Nevada is up for grabs. The Rep and Dem candidates we voted for in our Caucus are no longer in the race. Nevada went for Bush in 2004 by 52%. I am not seeing as many BO ads here as before. We have 5 electorial votes.

#34 Asian4Hillary on 09.10.08 at 11:17 am

Good morning Puma Family!

IF DNC and NObama have enough brain cells alive they better stop using Hillary to campaign for NObama. Every time Hillary goes on campaign for NObama, it only remind voters how they were cheated and their votes are meaningless. Hillary is the BIGGEST reminder how votes of the people were SUBVERTED by superdelegates, and how corrupt is the primary especially in caucus state like Texas.

The more NObama shoot off his mouth without checking if his brain are loaded, the more he gets the ire of registered voters. His use of invectives to get a laugh from his audience is his OWN demise; it doesn’t bode well with the American people in both sexes. Men find it also insulting especially men who love their mothers or very protective towards their sisters or daughters. NObama due to his INEPTNESS have just called his wife and two daughters PIG.

IF Oprah believes in empowerment of women as she always spew on her show, she should stand up and speak out! Where is Gloria Steneim and other so-called founder of Women’s Lib.

I think NObama have lost supporters with his pig and lipstick yesterday from both sexes. You never call a mother of a person pig with lipstick eking out a living sending her son to college and expect that young man to vote for you! Every young woman should be appalled by this, especially those who love to put on their makeup every day!

#35 HP Boston on 09.10.08 at 11:18 am

Sarah, I believe Obama called you a pig.

I believe he called me a pig.

I believe Obama called all women pigs.

We will never vote for him, EVER!!

I emailed this to fox……………

#36 murphy on 09.10.08 at 11:18 am

just.words — I know what you’re saying, and I agree on principle. The shot of Markos, for example, is subtle but clear.

But we should all be OUTRAGED today, and it is NOT phony outrage, no matter what Obama says.

When he called Sarah Palin a pig he was calling me a pig too. He was calling Hillary a pig. And you — and sandipuma, and ipotter, and every single last woman who dares to stand up to him. If we let him call us pigs he will think it’s okay to treat us like pigs.

I learned A LONG TIME AGO that the ONLY way to deal with bullies who try to push you down is to punch them right back in the face.

So call it “phony outrage” all you want, Obama. We’ll just see how phony our outrage is on November 4th.

#42 Susie1945 on 09.10.08 at 11:22 am

#28 Thanks Murphy – was very interesting – another thing – we had a young man – about 16-17 – was an intern or judge-in-training which is something MN does to get people involved in being election officials – he was a very nice young man and didn’t seem to be too intimidated being confronted with 9 older women – he sat & observed the processes- from registering new voters, to signing in, to marking ballots, to putting in machine, to get your little sticker that says “I voted” – maybe he will be a judge at GE

One of my fellow sign in judges was 83 – sharp ole gal, retired a couple of years ago – had a lot of experiences in her life – loved listening to her stories –

As you can see, we had a lot of time to talk because the turn out was so low – but I enjoyed it – but, sitting with little to do really makes a day seem long………………….

#43 HappyGirl on 09.10.08 at 11:23 am

Sarah Palin owns the lipstick line. Just like Hillary owned the pants suits line. Just imagine Obama saying “You can put the pants suit on the pig….but it’s still a pig”.

#44 Grizzly on 09.10.08 at 11:23 am

Whoa! Just saw Obama’s explanation of his lipstick comment. He angrily denied it as any kind of attack, and remarked “SPARE THE PHONY OUTRAGE!”

No acknolwedgment that it may have offended some people, no apology. This man is incapable of owning up to a mistake, and is certainly unable to even understand how something he says MAY be taken.

I suppose “Phony Outrage” is his code for hysterical. It is certainly dismissive of those who see things differently.

#45 osaka puma on 09.10.08 at 11:25 am

the very fact that obama has done so well tells you that sexism is alive and well …obamas biggest supporters were blacks and WHITE MEN..what does that tell you

#46 slyt2 on 09.10.08 at 11:26 am

You know I wish there was a way to let BO know that McCain isn’t the only one thinking that and causing panick. We all heard it we all think it before McCain’s camp said one word about it.

he has 3 offices in fort worth alone. he is extremely passionate about getting voters registered. (i wonder if his newly registered voters will be able to finally return tx to a blue state ?) (nahhhhhhh…….. nice thought if anyone else was on top though.)
i have not seen one print ad, i get the dallas and ft worth papers, not one tv ad (although neither campaign has to with alL the reruns on the msm ! LOL)
nor on any am radio. like i suggeted though – perhaps other areas of texas have a different experience.

#50 murphy on 09.10.08 at 11:28 am

Grizzly — can you believe that??

What tone-deaf nincompoops they are. Or maybe it’s more than that. Maybe it is after all just like what Maya Angelou (one of Hillary’s staunchest allies) famously said,

“when people tell you who they really are, believe them.”

#51 YesSheCan on 09.10.08 at 11:29 am

Obama’s camp screams racism at things like “fairytale”?
And uses sexist remarks left and right through out the campaign.

What would happen if anyone on the other side DID make a racist remark? I don’t think it’s happened, has it?
I think Hillary, then McCain and Palin, have all tried to be sensitive to the possibility of offending anyone.
“Lipstick on a Pig” when talking about a woman is as bad as “call a s—- a s—-” when talking about an A.A..
You could use his argument, that it’s a common phrase.
But his opponents won’t sink to that level (hopefully).

He has no class, and IS an ass.

#53 NoMoreInFL on 09.10.08 at 11:29 am

Here’s a little history of “Chicago Politics” from my family members in Gary, IN and Chicago Heights, IL…

They would be picked up and taken to vote, making sure they voted for who “they” wanted. My dad said in those days, the voter area had a curtain around them; he was allowed to enter while the “person” was outside and was not allowed to pull the lever until he opened the curtain and the “person” verified who they marked and then was allowed to pull the lever.

So how many buses does *61 have to do the same in 2008? We need to follow those buses with a video camera…here in Orlando, during one of the past elections they used school buses that is illegal and stopped to feed them all…also illegal…buying votes!

NO WAY NO HOW NOBAMA…NOW OR EVER!

#55 just.words... on 09.10.08 at 11:31 am

Murphy — I am with 100% on the righteousness of your outrage at NObama’s dismissive arrogance. I just think that, with the world watching, we would be well-served to keep things as classy and as clever as possible.

Remember:

To paraphrase Benjamin Franklin, “The honorable PUMA reputation that you have earned is like fine china, easily broken and never well mended.”

#56 osaka puma on 09.10.08 at 11:31 am

the DNC obama are placing their bets on the “Sexist” line..
they think americans are so fu..ked up in the head that sexism will bring them home the bacon come november 4th

#57 Asian4Hillary on 09.10.08 at 11:32 am

NObama actually is OUTRIGHT dismissive of women, he only wanted women if he has any use of them; but once he finds it tou cumbersome whatever he may have in mind, he’ll dismiss them like an old pair of shoes. NObama grew up raised by two domineering women, his mother and grandmother and married to a very domineering wife and never think twice of saying in public in February 2007 the Obama who lives in her house and her two daughters is less impressive.

In his home life, it is Michelle Obama wearing pants in the family, when she says “sh*t” NObama starts squatting. In his campaign, he have less women and paid less compared to men; with McCain he has a lot of women in his campaign staff and they received higher salary or the same with their male counterpart.

Sexism is not only spewed by NObama he also PRACTICE it! A person can’t hide their true nature from others, it will slowly leak out for others to see.

#58 Grizzly on 09.10.08 at 11:32 am

Murphy,

No I can’t believe it. And let’s not firget his one fingered salute he gave to Hillary during the primaries:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zhkq11UExcw

Obama has a genuine and overt disdain for women. He views their presence on the political stage as a laughing matter. Imagine, “Sweetie” thinking she can actually compete with him. `Perhaps it comes from his father – in Kenya, women were little more than chattel, and sometimes of less value than the goats in the herd.

I did not raise my two daughters to be treated this way. No way. No how. No Obama!

#59 murphy on 09.10.08 at 11:32 am

YesSheCan — exactly right.

So in Obama’s Version of Reality:

fairy tale = racist
elitist = racist
inexperienced = racist

periodically = A-OK!
sweetie = A-OK!
bitch aint one = A-OK!
pig in lipstick = A-OK!

I agree with you…uncomfortable, over the top.

The pig snout and lipstick makes an effective statement. Placing o’s head on the body of a ‘topless’ woman, reminds us of our ‘nothing on top’ election position, but, it also, inadvertantly, reinforces the sexist notion that ‘feminizing’ a male, demeans him, because of the widespread belief that women are inferior. Know what I mean? I think there ar ebetter ways to strike back at the pig boy without involving women.

I prefer the photo of the head shot (no pun) of obarnanimal with the word “sexist” written across his forehead in lipstick.

The poster that you made that says “NOT THE CHANGE AMERICA NEEDS” will still work here in my small town. It just shows what OB thinks about smalll towns. I am going to take some more to town this week-end.

Some of you have been listing reasons not to vote for OB on here. One of my resons is he is deceitful, dishonest and untrustworthy. On the day he was announcing he was running for President, he hid Rev. Wright downstairs, so the American people would not know that he was his pastor. He deceived us on the first day. But we have all learned who and just what he is.

#66 antifish on 09.10.08 at 11:35 am

This is what I sent :

As an American and a Voter , I used to be confident that I could rely on the news media for balanced and accurate information on the candidates in order for me to make an educated decision on election day . This is obviously NOT the case any longer . As a lifelong Democrat , I have been appalled at the way the media has painted such a corrupt and inexperienced candidate in such a glowing light ! Isn’t it YOUR responsibility to REPORT on corruption and deceit in politics ? If so , then why haven’t we heard about the Philip Berg case – that was NOT dismissed BTW- against Obama ? http://www.obamacrimes.com/

Or about the massive caucus fraud in Texas and other caucus states : http://wewillnotbesilenced2008.com/video/index.htm or http://www.lynettelong.com/caucusfraud/

Or about any number of corrupt Chicago style politics that has elevated such an inexperienced DIRTY candidate to one election away from the Presidency of the UNited States ? Http://puma-facts.com/default.aspx

I implore you as an American voter to PLEASE DO YOUR JOB .

Sincerely,

Love the picture! It speaks volumes!

Now, not that this has anything to do with anything but…I just asked a customer for her ID to run a credit card charge. Her picture on her drivers license from FLORIDA was taken so many years ago I wasn’t sure it was her! She said in FLORIDA you don’t have to go to the license bureau to renew your license. WHAT? Then how the heck do they know how you’ve changed? I said to her….sounds like a voting problem to me, she agreed!

FLORIDA residents, is this true? If so I think I would push for a change!

He sure is a pig.

#80 murphy on 09.10.08 at 11:42 am

yes middle age female — I did — thank you — going to fix it now.

dear lord — that’s even worse. Not because reporters are better than waitresses, but waitresses are often so friendly and personable, and you’re relating to them in a much more casual way than you are with reporters or politicians etc., that I can almost see calling a waitress “hon” or “sweetie” or “darlin” as friendly and down-to-earth esp if the waitress is a lot younger. . .(not that I do in his case since Obama has ZERO cred in that dept with me) BUT

calling a professional reporter who is trying to ask you a question “hang on there a sec Sweetie.” Yeah right.

Imagine if Hillary had put off a black reporter by saying, “Hang on there a sec Boy.” I dont even like typing the words.

holy smokes.

I said Obama would be finished by the end of September. I think I can smell burnt toast already.

#89 Silence Dogood on 09.10.08 at 11:47 am

I post this in the previous blog comments:

Good morning from NJ.

I just mailed a letter with just a lipstick kiss. I urge others to do the same. Image the message from couple 1,000 or more letters like this. I originally thought of a sending a tube of lipstick, but that would require a package. Then they could just start feeling the package and throwing them out. Put a letter with a kiss in a non see through envelope, and they have to open them all. Especially if you put Campaign Donations on the envelope.

Obama for America
Campaign Donations
P.O. Box 8102
Chicago, IL 60680

BTW the lipstick thing appears to be a theme. From yesterday:

“Earlier in the day, Missouri Rep. Russ Carnahan, appearing at a speech by Democratic vice presidential nominee Joe Biden, said that Palin is “someone with zero experience in national government, zero experience in foreign affairs. There’s no way you can dress up that record, even with a lot of lipstick.”

#90 PumaDuma on 09.10.08 at 11:47 am

??????????????????????????????????

#91 Grizzly on 09.10.08 at 11:48 am

Here’s one of my e-mail distributions I put out last week. We all knew Biden was a cheater, but no one has focused on Obama. The information was in bits and pieces in different places, so all I did was to connect the dots. But when you connect those dots, wow. Very telling about the man’s character and substance. Also shows that his history of not taking women seriously goes back before Hillary to Alice Palmer. Enjoy, and please feel free to use as you see fit.

“The Obama camp via David Axelrod has done and is doing their level best to assure that sexism is alive and well in this new century making it available as a weapon to use against a female VP candidate.

I for one do not buy Obama’s Pontius Pilate impersonation disclaiming responsibility for the attacks and smears and rumors. Looking back on his history, he has NEVER won a fair election. He fooled Alice Palmer by promising to step down from the position she held and to which he ascended with her support when he decided otherwise. He eliminated his entire slate of competition by waiting just before an election to disqualify them on the grounds that their nominating petitions were defective, thus depriving them of any time to correct the technicalities.

The Chicago Tribune leaked details from the sealed divorce records of his opponent in the senate primary in Illinois (Hull), who had a commanding lead before the leaks. David Axelrod was Obama’s campaign guy, and Axelrod had worked for the very same newspaper before joining Obama’s team.

In the general election, Jack Ryan found himself subject to an almost identical tactic, when the Trib managed to get his sealed divorce records in California unsealed. Ryan was forced to withdraw, leaving the Republican Party no time to muster any candidate of worth.

Obama destroyed Hillary Clinton by playing both the race and gender cards. There is an article in American Thinker that goes into detail of how Obama coerced delegates into his fold by threatening (community organizing) to use his war chest to support candidates to oppose them in the next Democratic Primary. It is also fairly clear that many of the superdelegates were bought off, as evidenced by the contributions to their campaigns from the Obama camp.

That is NOT running on the issues. And that is not “winning” an election – it is engineering a win through trickery.

Hull and Ryan had children, and the disclosure of the information that led to their fall certainly did not help their children. But it helped Michelle Obama’s children, didn’t it? And we are to believe he has had nothing to do with the attacks on Palin and her family?

This man will do anything to win an election, and has the record to prove it.”

in front of Bill O’Riley, he stammered and stuttered and wasn’t able to get a single coherent answer out of his mouth.
—–
If every person in the country could see that tape, we wouldn’t have to worry about this fraud being elected.

One interesting thing was that He kept trying to … knock on O’Reilly’s leg, or something, at a level which he probably thought was below the frame, presumably to stop O’Reilly’s line of questioning.

I was disappointed that even O’Reilly didn’t mention, during the Ayers discussion, that Ayers was Obama’s EMPLOYER for several years. Sheesh, the fix is REALLY in on Ayers.

I found this great post by Belle Starr over on ABC
she is wonderful with pointing out Obamas flaws, she has great insight and I always look for her input there. I hope she is a PUMA she is awesome as are all the PUMAS here.

#108 murphy on 09.10.08 at 11:57 am

what riverdaughter said,

“And now, the DNC and the Obama campaign are surprised that women are abandoning them and that Obama can’t raise enough money for the general. I’m surprised that they are surprised. What we have witnessed is an abuse of our caucus system, fradulent primaries and superdelegates substituting their will for the will of the voters. And all of this was done with Obama’s approval because it was more important that he win than whether the party survived his candidacy. He was even willing to let Congressional candidates lose if he couldn’t be at the top of the ticket.
Those of us who are holding out aren’t doing it because we’re racists. It’s not because we are wedded to Hillary. She’s right about never looking back to what might have been. We have to move forward. But we will never support a man who has so utterly destroyed our trust in him and the party apparatus that put him in power. Not only have they failed to exercise leadership and control but they have put victories for downticket Democrats in question as well. They have subverted the process to the point that we may lose the slim margins we hold in Congress while we end up with a Republican running the White House.”

NEWSFLASH

Obama and Axelrod are doing a purge of democrats in Congress who didn’t support them.

He sicced the IRS on Charlie Rangel, leader of the pack for Hillary; Charlie owed back taxes and has 4 rent controlled apartments – now the democrats on the ethics committee (oxymoron – we know the democrats under this DNC and Pelosi have no ethics) are demanding Charlie resign from the Chairmanship of the Ways and Means Committee.

What should we do ? What can we do ?

Let’s see: Tried to push Tubbs-Jones out
Sheila Jackson Lee
Representative Lewis

I’m sure there are others, but notice anything in common?

I LOVE OHIO too, will try my best to help out here.

UPDATE 9/10/08 AT 12:06pm eastern: In response to the furor over yesterday’s “lipstick on a pig” remark, today Obama told us, “Spare me the phony outrage.” Well, okay then. We’ll spare you the phony outrage Barack and give you the authentic variety on November 4th. That sure will be Sweet-ie.

Maybe today is the day to do a short prowl to let Obama find out that our outrage is not phoney and a heads up that we will not vote for him in November.
How about it being sent to Obama, Nancy and the DNC and some of us will continue sending it to the media?

Did anyone hear of the stump speech Biden gave yesterday, praising someone in the community and asked the guy to stand up for the crowd to see him, turns out the guy was in a WHEELCHAIR! Ooops, Biden then asked everyone to stand up for that guy? It was on the radio this morning so not sure if there is a link nor do I remember the name of that guy.

Biden and BO are quite a team and making it pretty easy on McCain to win this thing.

Although the post graphic does make me UNCOMFORTABLE, the caption in my mind is:

NOW, HOW DO YOU LIKE MALE MOCKERY, MR. OBAMA?

Murphy’s words:

“…calling us Pigs, and Whores, and Sluts, and Dominatrixes, and Bitches, and Bad Mothers, and C**ts, and Ex-wives, and Avenging Girlfriends…”

(… and “pigs”… as many women have also been called – over centuries I am sure – as Obama and his attackers know all too well)

… brings a deep pain in my stomach and tears to my eyes… and those that know that emotional response, know that the damage those “words” do, have done and will continue to do if not confronted head on…

… Hence, Murphy’s words… “I intend to fight back with every mocking, ridiculing, brash tool in the book to expose them.”

(Which make me want to stand up ans shout: BRAVO!!!)

Hey Barb-

I know your’e still on the fence and still angry about Hillary.
Believe me I am too! However, think about the supreme court. Think
about the damage to our country. Think about Hillary’s words here:

After someone in the audience yelled, “Tell us about Palin,” Mrs.
Clinton replied: “I don’t think that’s what this election is about.
Anybody who believes that the Republicans, whoever they are, can fix
the mess they created probably believes that the iceberg could have
saved the Titanic.”

#184 mlhath on 09.10.08 at 12:39 pm

Sorry, Murphy.

Because I am at work, only get to peek in occasionally, so all the comments about the picture happened while I was actually busy doing things they pay me for.

I am still not comfortable with the use of a women’s body to make a point. I don’t have any other issues. In the same manner that I don’t like to hear the term “girlyman”. As if somehow being more “girly” should be insulting. And like when my son’s football coach berates the team by calling them girls. Which I also protested.

I don’t want to be one of those people, including women, who cheered when Obama made the lipstick remark. We are better than that.

Or maybe I’m just overreacting.

#185 antifish on 09.10.08 at 12:41 pm

I just left the following email at Hillary’s site. I would encourage all of you to do the same. We need to send a message.

Dear Senator Clinton,

I am writing as a concerned Democrat who is appalled at the comments from Senator Obama regarding Governor Sarah Palin. To equate her with a pig or a stinking fish is disgusting on so many levels that I can’t even begin to voice my sense of insult.

That he would so flippantly dismiss the just outrage his words created this morning tells me much about his character. There was nothing presidential about his remarks and there is certainly nothing presidential about his reaction. Frankly, if he had any doubt that he offended just one person, he should have had the decency to apologize.

What has happened to the Democratic Party, Senator? How can we expect anyone to take us seriously when the man who purports to lead the party is out disparaging women in the most degrading ways imaginable? His words did not only demean Governor Palin, they demeaned all women.

Senator, I hope you will reconsider your decision to continue stumping for Senator Obama. He obviously doesn’t deserve the support of any woman, especially you. As a longtime supporter, I can’t help but see your continued high-profile involvement in his campaign as a detriment to your own political career and future aspirations. Please think about yourself.

#186 monap on 09.10.08 at 12:41 pm

Whenever they send off a letter asking for funds – we all get those – let’s write our comments inside and seal the envelope with a LIPSTICK kiss. Also when they call and beg make a kissing noise and tell them it’s FULL LIPSTICK!

Murphy – I totally agree the toast is starting to burn – notice his angry stance and unsmiling face in Norfolk this morning – he knows he’s starting to sink – pretty soon all we’ll see is the hand above the mud pit he’s created!

McCain’s comment came before Palin used it as a self directed joke about Hockey Mom’s and Pit Bulls. BO’s use of it at this time, left it open to personalization. At a minimum, it shows poor judgment. He claims he is going to avoid war with diplomacy? That is sure not believable now.

Obama pulling ads in Red States
Fox News:

Barack Obama’s presidential campaign has put the brakes on ads that were running in seven states carried by the GOP in the 2004 presidential election, FOX News has learned.

Of the seven states — including Alaska, Georgia, Montana, North Carolina, North Dakota — Florida and Virginia are considered key battlegrounds this year. Obama’s decision to stop advertising in those states is raising eyebrows.

Aides to Obama told FOX News that the changes are related to the convention next week but they wouldn’t discuss the specifics of their ad strategy.

#203 mimi1020 on 09.10.08 at 12:55 pm

Hot on the heels of his explanation for why he no longer wears a flag pin, presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama was forced to explain why he doesn’t follow protocol when the National Anthem is played. According to the United States Code, Title 36, Chapter 10, Sec. 171, During rendition of the national anthem when the flag is displayed, all present except those in uniform are expected to stand at attention facing the flag with the right hand over the heart. ‘As I’ve said before about the flag pin, I don’t want to be perceived as taking sides,’ Obama said. ‘There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. ‘I like the song I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing. If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.’

This is the first time I have seen this answer. I already thought he was a light weight, but from his own mouth he says, he doesn’t want to take sides for the USA ? How can he be President if he thinks of the American flag as a symbol of oppression and he can’t respect our national anthem and what the words represent? I do not believe that this radical liberal is in touch with the American people if he believes the American people would EVER consider changing the national anthem to his choice of ‘I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing’ He apparently wants to sal ute a song but not the country’s flag. What an idiot. This guy is a danger to all!!

I will be honest
I have tried my very best to give Obama every benefit

But, I listened to his explanation of the ‘pig’ thang
and the ‘fish’ thang, he enjoyed the laughter like any great commedian would…he was relishing it, that is until this am…with the McCain camp striking back…

what did he expect, for McCain camp just to let that right, my problem with his chosen phrases, were the timing, of all the worst time to use that, even if it werent directed to Palin, I mean i saw it live yesterday,
he knew exactly what he was doing and saying.
He also expected to make McCain mad, he finally did something that got results

#207 murphy on 09.10.08 at 1:01 pm

via southjersey:

Missouri Rep. Russ Carnahan, appearing at a speech by Democratic vice

#218 Alice1943 on 09.10.08 at 1:09 pm

We live in a building for seniors, and last night a gentleman in his 70′s was boing berserk pounding on a picnic table outside. I asked him what was the matter .
His face was red and he looked like he was about to burst a vein in his forehead and he practically yelled, ” The bastard’s not getting elected now. He called her a wh*re. It took a second to realize he was referring to Obama’s ‘lipstick on a pig’ comment. But that’s what the comment meant to that old guy and he was really steamed.

And now, today, Obama wants to get away with it by getting mad and accusing the Republicans of making a big deal about it. Apparently there is just no end to his audacity of ignorance.

Funny how in all the ads, the way they want us to show our commitment is by sending them money. Like ‘please pay me to annoy you’.

Could Clinton have Palin-proofed Dems?
The Obama campaign has denied that it has a serious problem with female voters.

On Monday, campaign manager David Plouffe told a Washington Post reporter, “Your poll is wrong,” adding, “We certainly are not seeing any movement like that. Polls, time to time, particularly on the demographic stuff, can have some pretty wild swings.”………

WAY TO GO, BO!! Keep up the good work.

#242 TexasTigress on 09.10.08 at 1:23 pm

This is what I sent to americas-talking@foxnews.com

Obama is a MASTER of making veiled smears , like when he was ‘scratching his cheek’ and NOT flipping off Sen. Clinton . This was a BLATANT attempt to refer to Palin’s Lipstick comment . As far as the “feigned outrage’ he is attributing to The Republicans , does he mean like what HE did when Sen. Clinton mentioned Bobby Kennedy or when Former Pres. Clinton mentioned that Jesse Jackson won S. Carolina ??? As a lifelong Democrat I have a message for Sen. Obama , ” It’s too late to Apologize” . Sounds like SOMEONE’S chickens are coming home to roost …

TEXAS TIGRESS:
I FEEL FAIRLY CONFIDENT THAT TEXAS WILL REMAIN A red STATE. I was living in Brownsville, TX, teaching French to 97% Hispanics, when our most esteemed Ann Richards became governor. The tied turned towards her when the Republican (very rich man, backed by very rich people)
refused to shake Ann’s hand. Big mistake!
Obama is making the same kind of mistakes now, and we will witness his continued failure because he can’t seem to help himself.

I’m off message as I just wanted to tell you that I will contact all those Ohioan newspapers.

I am interested in all things Ohioan. My paternal grand parents and their grandparents etc are from Ohio. Toronto, before it was Toronto, was named SLOANE’S STATION after my gt gt uncles who donated the land for the new railroad. There is at least one famous Sloane from Ohio.
John Sloane, one of my gt gt uncles, was a U.S. Representative from Ohio and later U.S. Secretary of the Treasury. He was, btw, a Republican.

I believe that with the entry of Sarah on the scene, that my brother has now stopped turning in his grave at the thought that I am considering voting Republican for the first time in my life.
Sorry for all this biographical info, I’m just very proud of it.

I just checked this out on factcheck.org – it’s false.

Did Obama say the National Anthem conveys a “war-like message” and should be swapped for something such as “I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing”?
April 22, 2008

No. That’s false. The quote was one conservative writer’s idea of a joke, which has been picked up and repeated as though it were true in a chain e-mail.

Sometimes it’s hard to know what to believe!!!

#257 taylorgrob1 on 09.10.08 at 1:34 pm

This is just another example that they don’t get it (a friend sent it to me from CNN):

“Barack Obama was again compared to Jesus Wednesday, but this time not by Republicans claiming the Illinois senator has an inflated view of himself.

Speaking on the House floor, Tennessee Rep Steve Cohen sought to defend recent attacks over Obama’s stint as a community organizer by picking up a recent blogger refrain, that ‘Barack Obama was a community organizer like Jesus.’

The comments come days after that part of Obama’s resume was belittled at the Republican convention.”

My input to Americas-talking@foxnews.com

Based on the way he seemed to savor the laughter he generated, I am convinced that Barack Obama knew exactly what he was doing when he smarmily introduced his “Lipstick on a pig” comment yesterday.

Today’s “Enough!” response, in which Obama’s fails to apologize and blames everyone but himself for the firestorm he is in the middle of, depicts a glaring lack of character.

Completely un-Presidential behavior, in my opinion.

#266 oscarp on 09.10.08 at 1:39 pm

good afternoon, my PUMA family.
By calling Sarah a pig, meaning that women are pigs, Obama also called me a pig, because I was born from a woman. Perhaps he wasn’t born from a woman, so he believes he is superior. By insulting women, he has insulted the greatest human being in the world: a woman. If it weren’t for women, all of us could not be on this Earth. Nobody knows how hard is to carry a baby for 9 months like a woman, and the more I try to understand that feeling, the harder it is for me to feel it because we, men, were not born to carry babies within us. God, Alah, Jehova, Budah, whatever name you think of, gave WOMEN that GIFT, and nobody can give women such insults. I am still trying to find an adjective that fits Obama, yet no adjective can resume his negative qualities.
It is time that women fight for women, but it is also time that we, men, respect and value women !!!!

hey all, a great quote by Sarah Palin

NY Times sept 8, 2008…in response to critics in governors race..

“She assured them she would not take much time off: she had returned to work the day after giving birth to Piper. “To any critics who say a woman can’t think and work and carry a baby at the same time,” she said, “I’d just like to escort that Neanderthal back to the cave.” ”

#313 annabelle on 09.10.08 at 1:59 pm

#315 murphy on 09.10.08 at 2:01 pm

did obama really say this back in October?

“As I’ve said about the flag pin, I don’t want to be perceived as taking sides,” Obama said. “There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know, the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial and less bellicose. I like the song ‘I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing.’ If that were our anthem, then I might salute it.”

Murphy – I can’t access this at the DNC web site. How did you get into it? I ask because there has been more than one situation pertaining to all the candidates I believe whereby fake sites were set up by computer savvy individuals. What do you click on to get to this page? I wasn’t able to do it. Just want to make sure we don’t “respond” to or “take action” on something fake.

RE: the “WAYS & STRATEGIES TO DEFEAT BO” action list

Anna7000- Did you see my post to you late last night? (I can re-post it if not). I was out when you posted your posts to me with suggestions for my “WAYS TO DEFEAT BO” list… some of which I’ve already incorporated. Also THANKS! to others yesterday who contributed to, or complimented, my efforts.

I have the revised the ACTION LIST and it’s ready for posting. Some of you have suggested that I post it at least twice a day, so I’ll try to do that.

I am also working on taking some of the ACTION items and expounding & detailing them in separate posts… for example: the one on contacting the media… fleshing it out with details, contact addresses, etc.

Murphy, I’ve found no evidence that Obama said that in October last year. I looked it up and did find suggestions that it was originally published as satire on a conservative site and has since gone viral in e-mails. I could not substantiate it. http://wok3.wordpress.com/category/rep-bullet-dem-gun/

#332 WolfmanJack on 09.10.08 at 2:10 pm

There is no reason to be “frustrated and angry”.

Obama is sinking his own ship.

I say give him a microphone 24/7.

I think he just likes the sound of his own voice so much that he doesn’t filter what he says.

Murphy—————–I love the picture, and I am glad it is over the top and in your face. I wish the media, DNC and the BO campaign had acknowledged how offensive and contemptuous their behavior has been earlier in this election cycle, but instead they have continued to insult and attempt to marginalize women, especially those who dare to compete- as Ms. Ferraro so aptly stated. Unfortunately, it has come to this. We must club them over the head and kick them in the b@lls until they get it through their thick skulls-we are taking this one to the mat and will not be deterred.

Simofish sent me this:

To paraphrase the words of one blogger who said it best over the weekend: We will defend Sarah Palin against misogynist smears not because we like her or support her, but because that’s how feminism works.” (take notice Gloria !!)

Another Simofish-at the end of her video of he 18million voices march she says this:

Starring:
Every woman. Some are bitter middle ages ladies-but they have gusto. These women are the very fabric of our society. they are the one’s who stand by the kitchen counter with their plate at Thanksgiving because there are no more chairs. Who give up their own dreams for those of their chidren-who until now have fallen in line. This time is different, one of our own has been left behind and we don’t leave one of our own behind.
This one is for Hillary!!!

#337 Lorey on 09.10.08 at 2:15 pm

Well it is simple he is calling Palin a pig and MCcain and old fish. Well is this the new style of making politics he promised or more of the same corrupt chicago style politics where everything goes.

Keep it on Obama I love your combination of mouth and foot. You sure will be President, but of the Woman Haters Club… LOSER……………..

#338 chrissieD on 09.10.08 at 2:16 pm

hi guys I was reading up on civil rights leaders yesterday and I found this interesting quote that I modified slightly “You’re not to be so blind with patriotism/Obamism that you can’t face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or says it.” This was said by Malcolm X and I thought it was interesting since when chatting on other blogs and asking some questions a lot of people defended Obama even though he had contradicted himself a lot….and one user replied that Wrong is wrong and Obama is all wrong for the US…neways

#339 Missy on 09.10.08 at 2:17 pm

*189 SilenceDoGood

BTW the lipstick thing appears to be a theme. From yesterday:

“Earlier in the day, Missouri Rep. Russ Carnahan, appearing at a speech by Democratic vice presidential nominee Joe Biden, said that Palin is “someone with zero experience in national government, zero experience in foreign affairs. There’s no way you can dress up that record, even with a lot of lipstick.”
****************************

This quote is not getting as much spin on the news as Obama’s but I think it is more than coincidence that “lipstick” was used more than once yesterday. Guess Obama “thinks we are stupid” — can’t see the connection. Fraud that he is.

#340 YesSheCan on 09.10.08 at 2:17 pm

Regarding his lipstick/pig/fish/stinky. I just don’t understand what’s going on.
This was on a teleprompter. He’s a smart man, has smart advisers. Why did they DELIBERATELY go there?

And to not apologize? Is he trying to draw out sexist things McCain has said in the past?

Maybe to throw the discussion off of issues? To get support from men who are sexist? The young people who follow him seem to think ignorant and ugly is o.k..
But I thought he was wooing Hillary supporters….

Sorry for the rambling, I just don’t get it. It was obviously planned. What was his goal???

I’m so confused.

#347 LandiPUMA on 09.10.08 at 2:21 pm

(REVISED version… newly *UPDATED*!!!)

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
:idea: WAYS & STRATEGIES TO DEFEAT BO IN NOV. :idea:

>> * Points to consider:

• This is a close election, esp. in the critical swing states!
• If BO wins, Hillary’s future presidential hopes likely END.
A big BO loss will shake awake the DNC, forcing reform… AND will allow Hillary to run & win in 2012!
• A lot of the focus should now be on the crucial battleground SWING STATES that will decide this election!!!
• We have less than 2 months left!

———————

:!: ** POSSIBLE TACTICS & ACTION STEPS: ** :!:

:arrow: – Make phone callsorganize phone-banks –> • Talk to others –> • Canvass door-to-door –-> • Give TALKS to groups. –-> • Throw Anti-BO PARTIES or ‘get-togethers’ (w/snacks, handouts, speakers)

:arrow: – Distribute flyers, brochures, info-handouts, etc –> • Put up FLYERS/posters all over (esp. where they’ll do most good). –> • Also: bumper stickers, buttons, yard/window signs, etc (“Stop Obama”, “Dems for Mac”, etc) w/web addresses on them of PUMA/JSND/Anti-BO sites.

:arrow: – Write Letters to the Editor & put ADS in major newspapers AND in local ‘free’ papers & mags. –> • Start & spread Viral Emails –> • Forward persuasive articles & links –> • BLOG… post comments & links in all good Websites (like news-sites) that reach many people (Let’s list their addresses here!). –-> • Vote on Web polls –> • Start your own Blog or Website or submit articles to existing ones

:arrow:Contact LOCAL media (TV, RADIO, NEWSPAPERS), in key SWING STATES, to encourage coverage of whatever can help our cause. –> Send them relevant info, stories, etc –> • Also, contact NATIONAL media, esp. those pundits & reporters NOT in the tank for BO who are more open to report our views …–> • To the MEDIA, in general: pass along any good anti-BO &/or PUMA-related info or news for them to report… –> • Also: Give TV & radio INTERVIEWS (like Murphy & Will do).

:arrow:Reach out to key voting blocs that can make a big difference in Nov., such as LATINOS, SENIORS, YOUNG PEOPLE, HRC-voters, WOMEN, Vets, gays, etc… ->> • Some ways to reach these groups: — Latino & Senior Centers (put/drop flyers, give talks), — publications geared to these groups (put ads, articles, Letters to Editors), — Hispanic radio & TV stations (ads, send newsworthy items), — Hispanic food markets (flyers), — College campuses (flyers, give talks, etc).

:arrow: – Many here agree that the most effective protest-vote strategy to defeat BO (esp. in SWING STATES) is voting McCain/Palin (though ALL non-BO votes help!). –> • Inform others RE: effective options & to consider how close the race is in their state… and that writing-in Hillary is NOT advisable in some states (etc.)

:arrow: – IF you’re voting Mac/Palin, and are enthused enough for them, DO CAMPAIGN for them… Sign up at their Website to volunteer… & DONATE !!! (they need $$$ to produce those great anti-BO ads, etc)… –> Help put BO well behind his opponent!!!

:arrow:DONATE to (& get active in) PUMApac… –> • and also DONATE to (& help out) any effective group (such as 527s) working to defeat BO through TV, radio & newspaper ADS, etc (and any JSND group working to defeat BO).

:arrow: – Let’s compile a running LIST of “Reasons Why You Should NOT Vote For BO”, • not only for use in FLYERS & handouts AND to help us present our case when talking to others, etc… • but ALSO for anyone to copy portions and email off (to friends, to undecided Dems, among key groups [translated to Spanish for Hispanics]). – • CREATE YOUR OWNVIRAL EMAILS!!!

:arrow: – Gather & organize your favorite TALKING POINTS; the most cogent & powerful ones. • Write, carry them w/you & review them… so you’re always ready to persuade & convince!

:arrow: Drive anti-BO people to polls (on Nov 4) &/or • help them get their absentee ballots in on time. –> • Be a Poll Worker http://www.eac.gov/voter/poll%20workers

__________________________________________

>> PLEASE CONTINUE SUBMITTING YOUR THOUGHTS, OTHER IDEAS, SUGGESTIONS AND SPECIFIC *STEPS*.

** I periodically update, revise and re-post this list… So keep the suggestions coming!

:idea: SUGGESTIONS for working with the DEFEAT BO ACTION LIST:
(see my post #347, “Ways & Strategies To Defeat BO” above)

:arrow: Take 3 or 4 of the strategies to defeat BO . How you can develop them or turn them into a personalized action plan? How can you apply them to a swing state?

:arrow: See which strategies appeal to you most and seem most ‘doable’ for you. Then pick one or two and put them into action as soon as you can. Then report here on your progress or experience with the strategy. Then try on another strategy, etc.

:arrow: Remember; if you don’t know what to do or don’t have time, you can always DONATE. Your money will be put to work for you!

– Let me know if you have any other suggestions on how to work with the Action List.

A constable is basically a process server. Then you have the local Marshall (separate from the sheriff), the County Sheriff, your local PD, the State Troopers and the Texas Rangers. We got more law here to deal with the likes of them Chicago Arugula eaters that show up here in the Great State of Texas every so often to try to organize our communities.

#21 antifish on 09.10.08 at 11:09 am I loved this part of the story. Seems wherever people get to know BO, they reject him. BWAAAAAAHAAAAHAAAA!!!!!!!!

“Sarah Simmons, McCain’s strategy director, cited advertising spending and polling data that she said shows that in the states where Obama has spent time and bought ads, his poll numbers dropped.”

I noticed that during the primnaries, whenever Obama had a debate with Hillary, his national Gallup numbers went down (and hers up); in other words, the more people saw of him, the less they liked him.
I also read recently that when Obama goes negative/on the attack, his numbers go DOWN (which makes sense: it contradicts the “different kind of politician” claims upon which his numbers are in part based.

#366 mccaindemo on 09.10.08 at 2:50 pm

Since Virginia is supposed to be a ‘swing’ state what else can I do(did media/press emails)..other Virginians here ? Hard to work for the Republicans but you do what you have to do to make sure Obama does not get anywhere near the White House.

#367 SergeiRostov on 09.10.08 at 2:57 pm

#57 Asian4Hillary on 09.10.08 at 11:32 am NObama actually is OUTRIGHT dismissive of women, he only wanted women if he has any use of them; but once he finds it tou cumbersome whatever he may have in mind, he’ll dismiss them like an old pair of shoes. NObama grew up raised by two domineering women, his mother and grandmother

I have always found it odd that despite being raised by domineering women, Obama rarely mentions them, and instead praises effusively and often the father who abandoned him (Why not “Dreams From My Mother”???). Disturbingly, this is yet another of the many ways in which he resembles Bush.

Now, I’ve never been one to revel in others’ misery, but these comments from the Cheetos are just too good to not share: :)

McCain/Palin drew 23,000 in Va today. Don’t know how much longer the Obama campaign can wait. The continuous dishonest attacks by camp McCain is hurting us at the polls.

The new Fox poll has McCain leading 45-42. Obama has dropped in every poll except for Rasmussen today. It doesn’t help us to diss the polls. They’re the same polls that had us leading awhile back. The state polls will soon follow the National ones.

I”m scared that we’re losing control of this election. I admit, I’m a chicken-little. Yes, I have been volunteering and donating – I’m still scared. I don’t understand how voters can fall for Rove tactics again.

by Kitty on Wed Sep 10, 2008 at 12:04:40 PM PDT

and

What happened in 2004 is happening again, and we’re letting it.

If this continues, there’s no way Obama will win. Sitting idly on the defensive waiting for things to discredit is going to do NOTHING when the bigger voice is the one that made the claim first.

There’s a million things to attack McCain for without even going dirty or twisting the truth, but it’s just no happening like it should.

Ironically, McCain is accusing Obama of the the very things HE is now embracing himself (“celebrity”), but because he is controlling the dialog, he’s being much more effective.

I only hope I’m wrong as fuck.

I’m live in 2 states. TN, but registered voter in FL. I travel back and forth 4-6 times a month.

Anyway, the difference in FL in the last week has been freakin amazing. I returned from FL late on “lipstick day” and people were ticked AWF. I work at a hospital and it seemed those who were on the fence prior to the piggy gaffe have hopped the fence for McCain/Palin. I expected a backlash, but in all honesty was surprised at *how much* it peaved even a few of the (female) koolaid drinkers.

In TN, it’s a wrap, as you might expect. Two days ago, on the local news, a man in Franklin (small, elite burb outside Nashville) had his car defamed with anti-BO remarks because he dared wear an “BO 2008″ t-shirt <– not agreeing/supporting that, just pointing out how insane it’s getting.

Here’s the local article:
