Barack Obama on Late Show with David Letterman
Barack Obama appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman in New York on Wednesday. Obama addressed his controversial “lipstick on a pig” comment regarding VP wannabe Gov. Sarah Palin.
"This is sort of silly season in politics - not that there's a non-silly season in politics. But it gets sillier. But, you know, it's a common expression in at least Illinois, I don’t know about New York City. I don’t know where you put lipstick on here.” “But in Illinois, the expression connotes the idea that if you have a bad idea, in this case I was talking about John McCain's economic plans, that just calling them change, calling it something different, doesn't make it better, hence, lipstick on a pig is still a pig.”, Obama said.
"Keep in mind that, technically, had I meant it that way, she would have been the lipstick, you see?" He continued, “the failed policies of John McCain would be the pig.”
