"‘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.

Unreal! LOL
I jokingly said it, but the liberals mean it!
“I thought Obama was the 2nd gay president after James Buchanan actually, but the point remains the same.”
I thought Abe Lincoln was our first gay President?
If Buchanan and Lincoln were both gay, Buchanan was president right before Lincoln.
"You know your son looks like a fag to me?" "You better get married again cause he's going to wind up with somebody's blank in his mouth before you can say Jack Robinson!"
"How dare you! How dare you!"
In Obama's case.....you can say Jack Robinson, or least Larry Sinclair.
Well he got a “first” in something, I mean besides being the worst President ever. Some people have been saying he is the first “black” President, but almost everyone knows that Bill(Bubba) Clinton was the first black POTUS.
I can’t. I get a 504 error.
From the DUmp. LOL

1. Since the President himself is not gay, “Pro-Gay President” would be more exact..n/t

I know..I’m dreaming...a well-meaning fourth grade student was allowed to write the copy for the cover of an internationally distributed magazine...or...DC Comics has a new Bizarro World mag disguised for April Fools...
Jesus...no, i’m awake. Did someone tell Michelle about this, or like Rudy Giuliani’s wife, who apparrently didn’t know she was getting a divorce, did she have to hear this stuff from the media?

5. IMO, this appears to be a riff on Bill Clinton being “The First Black President”

I’m not entirely sure most people will “get it”.

10. Yeah, I kind of agree. Beltway folks and politicos will get it almost certainly...

...but it’s going to cause the same sort of “Whaaa?” reaction from people that that goddamned awful New Yorker cover did, with Obama and his wife dressed up like terrorists, fist-bumping in the Oval Office did.

9. It’s pretty clever

Especially since he is the actual first black President.

11. I would hazard a guess that this won’t go over well with some people

He probably illegally modified the computer to do that. The Feds will on his doorstep very soon.
Thanks for that link (post #27). Very interesting.
Maybe they got “gay” together?

First, that halo needs a pair of hands grasping it and setting it on his head. If you know what I mean and I think you do.
Second, if Andrew is going to call Barry the first gay president, is he now going to say Sasha and Malia aren’t really Barry’s daughters? Or is that particular accusation a one-candidate deal?
LOL!!! I think this cover is a huge blunder on Newsweek’s part. This cover is open to misinterpretation . . . hee.
Pleeeeeease tell me this magazine is still sold as a POS item at grocery store checkouts coast to coast...staring at that while unloading your cart on to the belt should bring in the votes...LOLOL!
If they pull this cover now; the queers will squeal like stuck pigs; accusing Newsweek of caving to intolerant, right-wing extremists.
Get the popcorn...
Not for long. Together with Time they can just muster enough pages to hold the covers apart.
Gotta admit though, for a man, the first wookie pulls off the woman thing fairly well. Context....
