Sexist Reporter Claims Palin’s Outfit “Unpresidential”, Ignores Obama’s “Mom Jeans”
RealFeminist.com ^ | 07-13-2011 | Sheri Urban

The American Psychological Association needs to create a new ICD-9 code for Palin Derangement Syndrome (maybe 201.2?). The Washington Post‘s Jonathan Capehart ripped into Sarah Palin for the above images:

Folks want to be able to envision someone sitting in the Oval Office. They don’t necessarily want to envision them in the pages of Esquire magazine’s “Sexiest Woman Alive 2011” or Maxim. She can’t possibly be taken seriously as a presidential contender dressed like that, especially since this is the second time she has graced Newsweek in a less-than-presidential pose.
Are you kidding me? Maxim?! She is wearing a sweatshirt, not thong underwear and stilettos! And that first image from NewsWEAK was co-opted from a previous article in a RUNNING magazine. What about the photos of Obama in his mom jeans, is that presidential? Of course it is, because he is a man. A nice Marxist man, so his questionable fashion choices, and girly man pitches, are oh so presidential.

NY Magazine writes:

But we confess we found his mom jeans kind of endearing, because they're just the kind of thing normal nerdy dads would wear totally oblivious to the fact that they're anything but fashionable.
George W. Bush was often photographed in sports gear, since he ran ever morning at 5am. No one was criticizing that. What about the shirtless photos of Obama? Are those “presidential”?

Again we ask, where is NOW, Ms. Magazine, etc. on this? Are they for women’s rights or not? Where are the little Feministing girls? Too busy trying to reclaim the word “slut” and reinvent the free love movement, so that women can have more abortions?

 

Mom jeans song:

Most on FR know this but even so, few people really take a moment to ponder the implications of what it means...and we all REALLY need to... “Media at every level thinks you are literally stupid. Therefore you must be told what to think by your betters.”

Why was critical thinking and learning how’ to learn removed from education? There’s your answer.

Must be gay. Doesn’t mention Obamas unsightly man-boobs but has a problem with Sarah’s knock-out figure.

Bet this Democrat journalist never said a word when Billy Jeff Clinton graced the Oval Office with his flabby white thighs in running shorts....eeeshh. And we won’t even mention his outrageous behavior in said office.

There was a picture of him standing in front of the desk in the Oval Office at 10 in the AM in a dry sweat jacket and pants.

How is it Palins responsibility to pick a cover photo for Newsweek? Is the writers point that she should never be seen in casual clothes?

That shirt isn't even tight. Just because Palin can make even loose sportwear looks good...and I say this with envy and not a bit of resentment--

And I'm often embarrassed by how Fox babes dress!

Palin is so out of it, she appears only to be in tune with international leaders like Putin

The scary part is that most of us would probably rather have Putin that Zero! The cool thing is that Palin seems to be about as fearless as Vlad is ;)

Yep! Two days after I noted on FR the left-wing fifth-column media do not put out in their rags a good picture of a conservative, particularly Sarah Palin, without some ulterior, sinister motive, and that they would try to use the photos in another PDS attack of Sarah Palin, the LSM skubala are already at it.

I didn’t know Sarah Palin was President. When was the election?

Palin is so naturally lovely that she could make a burlap sack look hot. As for the presidentiality of her wardrobe, we’ll have to wait another 558 days to find out the truth. That’ll be January 20, 2013, her inauguration day.

What’s wrong with the photo?? Is it because she has boobs?

Putin may well be evil, but he actually works to advance the interests of his own country.

I hate to say it but Sarah looks really HAWT in that gray sweater.

Yup. Bottom line. I actually have a lot of respect for Putin for that very reason. Unfortunately, there are far too many other reasons NOT to like the guy.

At least with VP, he does not hide who or what he is. BO is far more evil than VP IMO, but with none of the love of country attached. AND he hides who and what he is.

Gay men prefer women who look like young boys. Take a look at today’s so-called “supermodels”. Not a Tyra Banks, Cindy Crawford or Kathy Ireland in sight. Seriously.

Boobs=Bad.

Looks like she is in Alaska; probably just ran 5 miles, shot dinner and chopped wood. Sarah, please wear your Jimmy Choos and Channel when you do that!
