Enough is Enough<\/a><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153What their campaign has done this morning is the same game that has made people sick and tired of politics in this country. They seize on an innocent remark, try to take it out of context, throw out an outrageous ad because they know it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s catnip for the news media,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Mr. Obama said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m assuming you guys heard this watching the news. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m talking about John McCain\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s economic policies and I said here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s <\/span>more of the same<\/a>, \u00e2\u20ac\u02dcYou can put lipstick on a pig, but it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still a pig. Suddenly, they say, Oh you must be talking about the governor of Alaska!\u00e2\u20ac\u2122\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n As the audience applauded, he added: \u00e2\u20ac\u0153See it would be funny, it would be funny except, of course the news media decided that was the lead story yesterday. The McCain campaign would much rather have the story about phony and foolish diversions than about the future.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n By devoting a little more than five minutes to the lipstick controversy, Mr. Obama said he was finished discussing the matter and return to issues that Americans are concerned about . (Time will tell, of course, if this really is the final word on the subject.)<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Spare me the phony outrage. Spare me the phony talk about change,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Mr. Obama said. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153We have real problems in this country right now and the American people are looking to us for answers, not distractions, no diversions, not manipulations.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Watch the video.
