Politico ^ | 5/13/12

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.

OMG, is that the real cover?

I saw this earlier, and thought it was a joke.

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

I can’t believe this is for real.

Geez Louise.................

Like this topic. It gave him millions from Hollyweird last week and drove his ratings down to 42%........and I’m no longer believeing any more than half of that 42% is really solid for him.

Last time I picked up a copy of NewsWeak you could see through it

Seriesly! I see it once in a while on my neighbors stoop where the postman drops it - it looks like a small brochure and about as thick as a "Watchtower" or LDS phamphlet.

My prediction is that since Obama now knows that he's in for another "shellacking" akin to 2010, he'll come out and sacrifice himself on the alter of political correctness by proclaiming himself bi-sexual.

The courage!

Oh, and NewsWeak, James Buchanan, thwe 15th president was the first queer president of the United States - go read freaking history.

You should take your posting off 3 round burst and put it back to semi-auto.

Oh lordy! Is this real? With a byline to the despicable Andrew Sullivan!

No, if we had done this is would have been considered, not hate speech, but a completely over-reaching parody.

This is it, between this and the “rambo mommy” cover and the Mitt Romney was a bad, bad, boy story the MSM is officially beyond parody.

Mark the day May 13, 2012.

I bet they thought it was actually doing him a favor.

It only makes him look like even more goofy.

Perhaps I’m out of line, but there are certain Democrats that I could imagine coming out of someone’s anus. Just sayin’.

You’re forgetting James Buchanan. He was the first gay president.

Newsweek is still around? The last issue I saw was at the dentist’s office 6 months ago. And that issue was about 6 months old a the time.

After Clinton BJ scandal, anything goes with the democrats.
Democrats have a wonderful way of introducing new things into the American lexicon.Soon that term will be normal.
