CBS/YouTube Pull McCain 'Lipstick' Ad

from Politico.com
YouTube has removed a webad that casts Sarah Palin as the victim of sexism on the request of CBS, whose anchor Katie Couric was featured in the ad.

"One of the great lessons of that campaign is the continued and accepted role of sexism in American life," Couric is quoted in the ad.

In the original clip, she was talking about Hillary Clinton; the ad applies her words to Sarah Palin.

Asked about the ad, CBS spokeswoman Leigh Farris said, "CBS News does not endorse any candidate in the Presidential race. Any use of CBS personnel in political advertising that suggests the contrary is misleading."

YouTube's page displaying the ad now tells visitors, "This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by CBS Interactive Inc."

Difference between Sarah Palin and Dick Cheney? LIPSTICK!

[Brianxyz72]

The Mccain ad was a lie created by taking things out of context. ABC has the right to remove the ad because it uses their material in a dishonest manner.

By the way, you misspelled Channel. That's "what gives"...You're dumb.

Sarah Palin is a CORPORATE COCKSUCKER.. She burps CEO's loads like a cum hound on a full moon! She should be fed to a pack of wolves but her stank twot scares of most mammals.

Palin's foreign policy is to build a bridge  from Alaska to Russia so she can get a better view of watching "Putin rearing his head" towards Alaska

I happen to be a Clinton supporter, and I'm 100% behind Obama. Palin is nothing like Clinton; Palin exploits negative stereotypes about women (mainly, that they're nothing but cute little bubbleheads only good for windowdressing) in a lame attempt to distract attention from the fact that she is what Julie Brown has called "Adolf Hitler with a vagina."

During her second term as mayor, Palin introduced a ballot measure proposing the construction of a municipal sports center to be financed by a 0.5% sales tax increase.[52] the city spent an additional $1.3 million because of an eminent domain lawsuit caused by the failure to obtain clear title to the property before beginning construction.[52]

Palin is simply the dumb version George Bush - with a pussy! She makes Bush look like a genius.

Americans got exactly what they needed. Bush has made sure you will have little or no Social Security or pension. Now sit back and watch your 401K disappear.

The sad irony is that we may have to ask Osama's family in the Middle East to help with our National Debt and Wall Street bailout.
