It just does not get sillier than this series of events.
"Lipstick on a pig" is an issue in the leadership race for the world's global power, a power currently engaged in two and a half wars and with elements of its economy failing?
I guess, yes, when you consider nonsense like whether or not you wear a flag pin having been an issue.
Even on its own absurdly trivial terms, this makes no sense.
Palin connected pit bulls and lipstick, but pigs and lipstick are somehow off-limits?
Did anyone see Palin's first interview, or read it?

Many of her supporters may not be aware that Sarah took six years at five different colleges in several states to a get a bachelor's degree.
Newsmen have discovered her academic records have been blocked from examination in all cases.
Now there is an issue, after eight years of government by a certified moron.
It will surely take America another century to become a civilized, sensible place.
