Newsweek magazine stirred controversy by re-using a Runner's World photo of Sarah Palin on their latest cover.

See photos of Palin since the presidential election

Palin slammed the news magazine via Facebook late Monday:

"The choice of photo for the cover of this week's Newsweek is unfortunate. The Runner's World magazine one-page profile for which this photo was taken was all about health and fitness -- a subject to which I am devoted and which is critically important to this nation. The out-of-context Newsweek approach is sexist and oh-so-expected by now."

Sarah Palin is the poster child for contradiction. First of all, the outfit she so gracefully is posing is not revealing. She really doesn’t have a figure so I don’t know what she is talking about moreover, she shouldn’t have posed if she didn’t want to be on the cover. Did they pay her for the shoot.

The problem is that #1 - this is from a running magazine photo shoot and they are just trying to diminish her. If she were a liberal, everyone would be screaming.
#2 If you listened to/read everything she said (Austin) instead of what the lamestream media tells you, you would hear a completely different thing.
#3 Is she the answer? Unlikely
Should she get a chance to be heard without help (Foxnews) or attack (lamestream media)? Yes

Sarah is right. With all these comments about “stupidity” and such, one doesn’t have to be an expert on commercial marketing exploitation to see that Newsweek is exerting it’s political muscle here instead of giving us some unbiased information. That is what’s sad. Sure we deserve to know when our elected and public officials are “out of the mainstream” but I would suggest that there’s a hell of a lot more Sarah Palins in the world than Newsweek realizes. Sure people are cows, and will jump on the diatribe bandwagons that the liberal and conservative media toss to from their respective literary hay-carts. The cows still lay down in the rain cuz standing in it is no fun, and as long as it’s fun to poke at a sexy powerful woman… it will continue. Sarah, you go girl!

It scares me that y’all idiot pseudo patriots exist. I mean, have you heard this woman speak? Is that how you want the future to model itself. Can any idiot say they are a moral christian and get away with such stupidity. I’m a texan, a christian, and I’m completely ashamed that the only party for small government and morality has made itself such a disgrace by blindly following fanatics, misinformation, and an unacceptance of true freedom. Please find someone who can show the greatness this party was founded upon

Only Botox people like Pelosi and Boxer and their stupid liberal followers can possibly criticize that photo. What is wrong when someone is finally thinking straight, naming things by name, tells stories like they are don’t care to be “politically correct” and looks good at the same time? Perhaps she is not a presidential material, but many say the same thing about Regan. Useless Carter was dancing in the White House when he found out that he is running against Regan, but we all knew what happen.
One fact remains undisputed; even Mickey Mouse will do a better job than the guy who is living @ 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. now.

She will not be the next president, so go for it. My issue is — before when she was running against a black man, people were for her. Now they are against her. What is the real deal?

I think it is a great picture, she did a great job in Alaska. I certainly think she can be a force in politics and I get tired of looking and listening to dried up looking prunes who haven’t had a fresh original idea in their life, ie or great speaker Nancy. Sara keep up the good work, the left can’t stand it that there is no one on there side as good. Jas

She has a great body…but she is too stupid to govern Alaska…how many people are in AK??? She needs to make money while people are dumb enough to give her attention and pay…the perception of the the publie was displayed by her own actions. Lack of substance and intellect……….. these are her creations..Lawrence
