Another Palin Hit Job: Newsweek Cover Claims Former Alaska Governor 'Bad News' for Everybody
Newsbusters ^ | November 13, 2009 | Jeff Poor

Posted on 11/14/2009 9:30:49 AM PST by Rufus2007

Sarah Palin's new book "Going Rogue" is set for release on Nov. 17 and with that will likely come a media blitz of epic proportions. However, based on the cover of the Nov. 23 issue of Newsweek, someone felt a response was warranted.

The wizards of smart at Newsweek took an image from a shoot of Palin that originally appeared in Runner's World magazine for the cover and splashed the headlines, "How Do You Solve a Problem Like Sarah?" and "She's Bad News for the GOP - and For Everybody Else, Too."

...more (with bare-legged Palin cover)...

Had not Great Britain exhausted herself fighting two world wars, leaving us the chief beneficiary, the world would look much different today. I don’t see the United States shrinking to the level of Britain today, but there will be a regression to the norm.

The left is looking for boogey men/women in the wrong places. Their boy in the WH is the really bad news. And the bad news gets worse every day thanks to his enablers in the MSM

My concern is getting Obama out of the WH and I honestly believe that Palin is incapable of doing that.

Then, who exactly do you believe is capable of beating Obama and staying true to Conservative principles? Name somebody!

Wonder if Newspeak asked for permission to use the photo?

Although I'm no expert on legal defense funds, I think she could have gotten enough contributions to a legal defense fund to pay all those legal bills. I think she resigned more because she was just really tired of wasting time with all those frivolous ethics complaints filed against her by political activists. One thing I've notice from working with women is that they generally don't waste time, they don't like wasting time on pointless activity, and they get things done a lot faster than men do.

I've run into that a couple of times while selling houses through female realtors. When the houses had been on the market about two months, both realtors started pushing me to cut my price and I had to take a hard line and just politely refuse to cut the price. I did drop those prices a little bit several weeks later and sold both houses. The interesting contrast was that one of those lady realtors had a male partner and he was much more patient and he didn't push me to cut my selling price. He was more interested in playing golf...lol. So I think Sarah may have just quit because so much of her time in the governor's job had become wasted time spent battling stupid frivolous ethics complaints. Now she's out there as an effective spokeswoman for conservatives and not wasting time with legal battles against stupid liberals.

Why does she have to be elected governor? Lincoln never held any federal position higher than congressman and then for just one term. Circumstance made him President. Of the four men running for president in 1860, Lincoln was no more impressive personally than any of the others. It all depends on the time, place and situation.

You think maybe some of these guys who say this nasty stuff about her might have a problem attracting good-looking women like Sarah? I think that’s probably true and that’s why those guys are angry at her. Let’s ask Olbermann about that....lol.

We are over the target, and it will get far worse when Sarah's book is shipped out on Monday by the thousands from Amazon.com.

Yes, let them bring it on. The moore nasty they are the better. It will help us take back the Repubican party.

Sarah should charge rent for the space she occupies in the Left Wing Extremes’ pea brains.

Pray for America and Lady Palin

I don’t believe that the new governor of Alaska has had a single frivolous complaint filed against him, along with the costs to Alaskan taxpayers. It was sad that she had to do this but the nonsense has stopped. She was effective.

Just look at the mess that the media has gotten us into by pushing for the election of Obama. He is a man with a turn coat Mama, and a drunken mean father. and we have reaped the results.

So the Spewsweek socialist rag is still frightened by Palin. Good. All commies and socialists have a right to be. Since with us behind her, we are going to take the these marxist clowns down.
