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?

Is his tire half flat? I wouldn’t want to ride much less ride and pull with the tire like that. But maybe he gets better fuel mileage that way, (with properly inflated tubes)

I wasn’t aware there was an Unpresidential outfit police. Who gets to make this decision as to what is and isn’t presidential clothing?

I think they should make it illegal for Presidents or anyone else to wear a suit!

Sarah’s “unpresidential” outfit simply will not be permitted on White House grounds when President Palin arrives.

Also as a rule, women should avoid gay hairstylists! They LOVE to chop hair short!! Ugh...

>> Jonathan Capehart: she has graced Newsweek in a less-than-presidential pose.

At least she’s not bowing to Communists, jackass.

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

Close. It's because they're real...and spectacular.

Cheers!
