Part of the problem is that immediately I adjust my set, this woman will appear. She is becoming inescapable in any situation involving electricity and a screen. The unwanted corporate inanities that appear during the morning boot-up were already discussing whether this Newsweek cover was “sexist.” And I found myself murmuring “Who gives a fuck. She stood still for the fucking picture, and she wants to be our fucking President. Unless Newsweek has adopted Fox-style fakery, she owns her own ass. The real question is who in their right mind would allow this She-Thing-From-The-Warp-of-Evil access to nuclear weapons?” How say you, neighbors? Sexist or reptilian, like the 1983 version of V? Maybe we culture-up an attack rumor that Palin is a pageant-disguised extraterrestrial? Is the nation so insane such a tale might find traction? Nazi flying saucers over Alaska? But a short hop from the deep Draco fissures of Tibet. A scenario starts to unfold, but I fear it is too complex, even for the History Channel and certainly for Glenn Beck who will never graduate from the FEMA Camp.
The secret word is Vril

just to clarify, she didn't pose for that photo for newsweek. it's from a shoot commissioned by runners world for an inside feature in aug 09. the shot was purchased by newsweek from the photog, supposedly in violation of a one-year embargo deal with RW.
not exactly fox-style fakery, but not particularly honest, either. i am no palin defender (she's awful, stupid, and alarmingly popular, even if not as popular as some might like us to think), but i can't help wondering why they did it. as for sexism, well, she's a woman, and this is the mainstream media. you do the math.
the mayans were quite clear in their predictions.
strangely enough, the word verification is SYNAL
I'm pretty sure that Palin is secretly Pleased with this cover. She is an attention whore and her ego knows no bounds. It's frightening to think this woman may have her finger on the Big Red Button one day. God help us all. 2012 indeed.
Her whole ex-beauty queen, love-me-I'm-mindless shtick plays straight to every mainstream media sexist tradition.
