Voices: Pettiness



The pettiness is in full bloom. Barack Obama was being petty when he did take a swipe at Sarah Palin with his “lipstick on a pig” remark. John McCain was being petty when he did take a swipe a Mr. Obama over his swipe at Sarah Palin. Good grief!

How about we just drop all the theatrics and start talking about the issues? The sooner the better!
