  Pigs are feeling resentful! A cartoon in a British newspaper (l3th Sept.) shows two pigs having a

  disagreement, with one reprimanding the other "Take that stuff off! You look like a politician". The pigs probably like Barack quite well as, at the moment, he's not "bringing home the bacon" if the polls are correct. They're not too keen on Sarah Palin, however, because her religious beliefs don't bar her from eating them. Heavens above, she even eats moose stew! Shudder. I have to admit that the European "elite" have grown quite fond of venison, as intensively-reared animals (the gloop in burgers) don't have the flavour or health-benefits for humans of those which live in the wild.

  Sarah is tactile, warm, and even imperfect so that gives her the edge over Barack. She didn't know the Bush Doctrine(s) so she hasn't studied her catechism carefully enough Boo-hoo. BUT she wears "Naughty Monkey" shoes, now experiencing a sales surge, and would probably have bought the fabulous Rouge Allure lipstick in Enthusiast "a bullet of pure, unapologetic red" except that it's made by Chanel. We know how you all feel about the French and almost everybody else in the universe unless they're your clones, the Kay Scarpettas (vide Patricia Cornwall) of language, forever using your scalpels on religion and race.
