palin lipstick

from "My Gal" in the New Yorker

So, when Barack Obama says he will put some lipstick on my pig, I am, like, Are you calling me a pig? If so, thanks! Pigs are the most non-Élite of all barnyard animals. And also, if you put lipstick on my pig, do you know what the difference will be between that pig and a pit bull? I’ll tell you: a pit bull can easily kill a pig. And, as the pig dies, guess what the Hockey Mom is doing? Going to her car, putting on more lipstick, so that, upon returning, finding that pig dead, she once again looks identical to that pit bull, which, staying on mission, the two of them step over the dead pig, looking exactly like twins, except the pit bull is scratching his lower ass with one frantic leg, whereas the Hockey Mom is carrying an extra hockey stick in case Todd breaks his again. But both are going, like, Ha ha, where’s that dumb pig now? Dead, that’s who, and also: not a smidge of lipstick.
(the 'lipstick on a pig' line in question:

)

and matt damon on sarah palin: 

"it's like a really bad disney movie. you know, the hockey mom... 'oh, i'm just a hockey mom from alaska!' and she's the president and it's like she's facing down vladimir putin and she's using the folksy stuff she's learned in the hockey rink, and it's absurd."

The lipstick on a pig joke is disturbing. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the premise of the joke is that someone puts lipstick on a pig to pretty it up before fucking it. Right? Who thought of this joke?

hmm... i don't think 'fucking it' is an aspect of the joke. it's just about the attempt to make something that's ugly superficially and temporarily pretty by putting a little make-up on it. it's like when i did a body shot in cabo san lucas to seem not lame, when, in actuality, i was quite lame.

Yes but once the lipstick's on that pig, you know what happens next.

If it wasn't about pig fucking, then the saying could just as easily be something like:

"You can dress a pig in your Sunday best, but he's still a pig."

Or "You can bathe a pig with Dial and baby oil, but it's still a pig."

Or "You can kill a pig and place its cured shanks on the dinner table, but it's still a pig." (vegetarian version).

Lipstick = sex.
