Sarah Palin Bikini Photos Are Fake
The Improper ^ | 8 Sep 08 | Samantha Chang

Posted on 09/08/2008 2:57:45 PM PDT by SkyPilot

Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has kicked up a media firestorm since John McCain announced she would be his vice presidential running mate.

In the two weeks since the announcement, Palin, 44, has been attacked for being a bad mom, an inexperienced bimbo and a vapid ex-beauty contestant.

Many people have also been frantically searching the Internet for sexy photos of Sarah Palin, and apparently hit pay dirt when saucy photos of Palin toting a rifle wearing a star-spangled bikini were uncovered. However, those photos--like the rumors that Palin's son Trig is actually her grandson--are fake.

Whether you agree with Palin's politics or not (personally, I don't), attacking her teenage daughter and mothering skills and manufacturing sexist images in order to undermine her credibility is a transparent attack on her gender. Sadly, we as a country just can't move past our prejudices. On the other hand, is this any worse than the New Yorker magazine cover which featured Barack Obama and his wife Michelle as gun-toting Muslim terrorists? Here's a novel idea: Let's just stick to the issues.

Perhaps a pic of an AK and a BB gun, side by side, will help the marxists at DU discover the difference...;)

Btw, thank for posting this. I’m sure it’s just the beginning of what we’re going to see between now and November.

My mistake - the other FR is correct - I think it is a Crossman.

Geez, anybody could tell that pic was faked, as the original girl's body is soft, and obviously hadn't finished any marathons.

Sarah Palin, runner

Add a shotgun and really confuse them. Particularly the media, who often identify shotguns as rifles.

I know that you were quoting another poster but whoever that is is holding a hunting rifle, not a sniper rifle and not an assault weapon.
The maggots on the left don't miss a chance to lie when it comes to firearms.
Even the socialists describe an assault weapon as a semiautomatic. This rifle is clearly a bold action so it doesn't even fit their fantasies.

That’s a dreaded assualt Crossman BB gun.

AND it's black AND it has a scope so it's also a dreaded assault Crossman SNIPER BB gun.

Do they think a picture of Palin in a bikini would cost her votes?

Boy, they are out of touch!

Same as the uber-lib guy I knew in law school, he of the Oberlin undergrad degree, who thought that the Ronbo poster (Reagan's head on Stallone's body, with appropriate quotes) would make me upset. You should've seen the look on his face when I said, "Hey, where'd you get THAT? I've just gotta have it!" This guy deflated from Bozo the Clown on uppers to...Michelle Obama thinking about Hillary.

Indeed, they simply do not understand.

Respectfully, I'm not sure the name-pun “Barracuda,” while fun and indicative of Sarah's tenacity, is how she should be be singularly defined.

Of course that picture is fake. Were it real then Sarah would have her shooting glasses on and the rifle would be at least a 30.06 and not a BB or pellet rifle. She’d also look a damn sight better in a bikini than whoever that is in the original pic.

Nor would her finger be inside the trigger guard.

I’m still digging the image of that guy with a can of Schlitz and a smoke.

That reminds me of a Dennis Miller comment when he still had his HBO show. When John Walker Lindh was captured in Afghanistan, Miller stated he was less concerned with Lindh and more worried about "Wolf Boy" in the background.

LOL! That is what I thought.

Plus, andy rifle with a scope is considered a "Sniper Rifle", and any gun that the MSM deems ugly is an "Assult Rifle."

Boy, Ann Wilson of Heart used to be pretty. I saw them in concert in 1978.
