Slime time

"Pussy cat" would be a better way of designating Obama. He's not combative like Hillary Clinton, and he's not a pandering glad-hander like Bill. Hillary was right about plugging him for "change we can Xerox," in reference to the words he borrowed from Deval Patrick, considering the his noted rhetorical skills; but he is an intellectual, and in the end he has the right to avail himself of the help of friends like Patrick, who can present ideas better to the average man on the street, intelligent but not versed in Ivy-speak.

I think this is more people like you being oversensitive to the use of words like "pimped out." This is not like Bill O'reilly saying O'bama's wife should be "lynched." The word "pimped out" is pretty standard for "selling out." I think the fact it was two of your examples shows that. Don't you think it's a little boring that reporters like yourself settle for the same boring language we've degraded for years now...there's nothing wrong with unique voabulary. The question you SHOULD be writing about is what are their underlying motivations. Why does Edwards think O'bama's a pussy? why does Oberlmann think Mr. Betray us is "pimping" himself....wouldn't that be a better use of your time....
