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.

I know, I know, it's Politico.

Had one of us Photoshopped that cover, it would be considered "hate speech."

But I guess Newsweek decided to do the heavy lifting...

LOLOL!

There will now be “glory holes” in the Whitehouse mens rooms.
being told Obama is gay is like being told the sun is hot.

The progressives want to first molest the minds of children and then molest their bodies later.

People just don’t want to pay public welfare benefits for two lunatics sodding off all day.

Muslims would just kill homosexuals.

Taking into consideration broken clocks tell the correct time twice each day, maybe “spread the other cheek” is not a good public policy.

In your unabridged Oxford Dictionaries, the word “faggotry” denotes the bundling of steel to be hammered or rolled together.

Mammalian evolution is entirely heterosexual.

 Monogamy is not required for evolution, monogamy is a tenet of religion.

To prohibit polyandry and polygyny is an ecclesiastic rule of law.

To establish an ecclesiastic standard of monogamy for homosexuals is nothing but RELIGIOUS FAGGOTRY.

Democrats live in a fantasy world where fairies wave magic wands over their anus and babies materialize out of thin air.

All men are born of a woman.

If you have to tell grown men that babies will not come out of their rectums, there is no hope for any rational discourse...

If Bathhouse Barry doesn’t come out of the steam room voluntarily, the POTUS (Poofter of the United States) should be forced out involuntarily.

The magazine won’t come out until May, 21. They still have time to pull the cover, if it hurts their hero’s poll numbers.

“I didn’t know “Newsweek” was still published.”

Yeah, it’s still out there: you can pay $5.95 for a single issue, or $1 for the whole company.

Unofficially they’ve been “Newsweak” for many years.

DAMN, GUYS.

I *just this morning* predicted he'd come out of the closet, but I thought he might wait until after his term or terms were up!!!!

Looks like Newsweek is doing the leaking for him, but to my mind, this is Obama *directly* coming out as a ghey boi.

Time... Newsweak. They’re more like pamphlets or brochures now than magazines.
