1. *lol* I haven't watched the Faux Freakout, but I LOVED that cover!

Hairy upper lip, wrinkles - in other words, a more real picture of a real woman than we've seen since she was selected.
They should have taken it from a different angle though; we didn't see any nose hairs *snort*

[Faith No More]

23. Could it just be a case of "lipstick on a pig?"

[Tarc]

2. I'll go ahead and say it

That is one uptight little Republican bitch there.

[Triana]

3. What a crock of whiney bullshit. I've seen Obama covers that looked unretouched...

...showed slight whiskers and pores (he's still beautiful, IMO).

I think this whole flap is just rediculous. Some people just WANT to be offended and are looking for things to be offended about. It's a sign of INSECURITY. Considering that little miss porcelain pitbull is pathetically unqualified for the job of VP of the US - I guess it's understandable - but really, these people need to get OVER themselves.

4. I saw this on Princess Sparkle Pony's

Photo Blog earlier. Guess the mainstream media decided not to use the filter Sarah was whining about.

5. Can't retouch her soul, though

The cover, although I haven't seen it other than in this video, makes for a great metaphor. From the initial view, she looks pretty. As you get closer..... not so pretty afterall.

[grannylib]

30. Excellent point! She really is not a pretty person AT ALL.

[malik flavors]

6. That woman was a kook.

[Hand]

10. Love your sig line, malik flavors!

:applause: :yourock: :loveya:

[StClone]

15. Maybe

But this is one smart MFer:

24. I'm obviously a complete moran...

Who the heck is that? :dunce:

[StClone]

31. Well I don't believe you are a moran

Check the guy schooling Hannutty:

[Hand]

33. Well, duh.

Truly a thing of beauty--damn, Barack has some smart people working for him.

Think this guy'll be his press secretary? :toast:

[malik flavors]

35. Hah, thanks! It's the truth.

[ksimons]

7. maybe she should have just put on make-up - seems like it is PALIN's fault, that dummy nt

[szatmar666]

12. Naah! just FOX's lame attempt to sell the mag.

they know that their perverted male foxbots are going to jump out of their couch and rush to the news stands to buy it and then use it repeatedly and vigorously in the privacy of their bathrooms. just another lame ploy at bumping circulation so that newsweek can say how popular Sarah Palin is. I urge everyone NOT to buy that copy!

[The Wielding Truth]

8. Now that's important news.

:* :sarcasm: "Please let us know what you think?"

[Hand]

9. To paraphrase Frank Zappa...

The ugliest part of Sara Palin is her mind. :evilgrin:

[lumberingbear]

11. Why should "good Christian women" worry about what they look like.

:sarcasm:

[Hand]

25. Oooohyeah...

Vanity and all that--one of the seven deadly sins...

[BlueJac]

13. WTF?

What a waste of time.

[Hand]

28. Of course it's a waste of time... it's Fox News! nt

[Historic NY]

14. Blah blah blah............what about the photoshoped shit they show.

[jfkraus]

16. I'm sorry, but only women

would even consider this an issue. I saw the cover and it never occurred to me there was any wrong with it other that it was of Sarah Palin. This ain't Bravo TV. Who the fuck cares if she has blemishes? I mean, come on!

[torbird]

29. You are SOOOOOOOO right!!

I mean, "only women" would care about this, so that means 2 things: 1. women don't matter, because they are only like 51% of the population, and stupid as hell to boot! and 2. they're stupid as hell and only care about stupid shit like their appearance, which, as any MAN could tell you, doesn't affect their careers, earnings, family lives, social status, or cultural perception. And, none of us burly MEN ever said anything about women's appearances that would suggest WE care about that shit!

Jesus, why don't women just shut the fuck up already???

[Lucky 13]

17. "This is mortifying!!"

Give me a fucking break.

:rofl:

19. I thought the Rethugs love Palin because she's "REAL"

So, what's the problem?

[Number23]

20. Do ANY of these look retouched?

I see wrinkles, moles, dark circles and all kind of stuff on this man. And it doesn't make one DAMN bit of difference.

At least it's not Palin's staff coming up with this idiotic mess but this dumb ass "Republican strategist." That heffa needs to get a LIFE and a real job.

22. Phony Retards!!

Hell, I was offended when I saw the cover yesterday afternoon at my doctors office and here's why. Failin has done nothing to deserve the honor of gracing any major publications cover period!

[AmyCamus]

26. I want my 4:58 back....

...what a waste of time that was.

[DainBramaged]

36. Me too, grasping at straws

[Politicalboi]

27. Well slap me silly

Palin is NOT perfect. OMG! :cry:

[shellgame26]

32. All the more reason

to ignore faux. What a complete joke of a network. I hope Jon Stewart does a parody of this 'controversy'.

[MrsBrady]

34. soldiers are dying in Iraq, let's talk about how Palin looks on a mag cover

:eyes:
