Posted on 05/13/2012 8:52:19 AM PDT by markomalley

"‘Let the games begin," Tina Brown said last week after Time Magazine released its controversial breastfeeding cover.

Brown, whose tenure as editor at Newsweek has seen an array of controversial covers, will respond with the above, pegged to Andrew Sullivan's piece on Obama's support for same-sex marriage: "The First Gay President."

The magazine is currently available on iTunes.

Saying this guy is a DICK seems...un-worthy of a dick.

"They actually are putting a rainbow homosexual themed halo over his head?"

Looks like he's graduated up from that old messiah's halo:

"Obama is our "Light-Worker" our "messiah"."

PICTURE

"... a light will shine through that window, a beam of light will come down upon you, you will experience an epiphany ... and you will suddenly realize that you must go to the polls and vote for Obama" - Barack Obama, Lebanon, New Hampshire. January 7, 2008

I know that the Newsweek toadies believe that this will “help” Obama in his poll ratings. Au contraire, I believe it will help soften his poll ratings and they will go down (again) this week.

Oooh boy. I never heard about those 3 guys before.

I wouldn’t think some gay choir people would be likely targets of gang bangers, beat them up, maybe, gun them down, not so much.

I wonder if the Washington Post ever looked into these things?

Could this story grow legs now that Obama is a “hero” to the gay community?

Suppose for one moment it was all true, and let’s also assume that the 3rd guy died of natural causes. If it were proven that Obama, or someone working in his behalf, had 2 gay black men murdered to shut them up, would anyone care? Would the black community care? Would the gay community care?

I don’t believe his 60% likeability rating either. They must have polled all gays. They are saying Romney is 30% in this poll. That’s just pure BS.

>>Tsk...He’s not the first gay President. He’s the first bi one.

There’s no evidence that he’s bi. His past “girlfriends” are a composite fictional character. He’s married to a wookiee. And now Newsweek has outed him. As far as I’m concerned, he’s queer as a three dollar bill.

That information needs to get out there. I think most that run the press these days are gay reporters and all. That’s why they are so protective of BO.

LOL. LOL. LOL. Bathhouse Barry is going to have an aneurysm when he sees that.

You can take Ohio off the list of battleground states now.

I thought Obama was the 2nd gay president after James Buchanan actually, but the point remains the same.

“Time... Newsweak. They’re more like pamphlets or brochures now than magazines.”

Pamphlets and brochures are more appropriate formats for propaganda anyway.

so much better than the CinCh's gay salute.

Salute?!? Looks more like he is trying to pick his nose with his thumb.

I think they got the banner headlines wrong, though:

1. ARE YOU READY TO BE A JELLYFISH
2. A FIENDISH NEW MEDIA PLOY?
4. NETWORKS GO HOLLYWOOD

{Well, they got #3 right, anyway...}
