“Oh, Democrats have made good, bad and bad, good. EVERYTHING they do (which leads to nihilism, dysfunction and destruction of civil societies and freedom) is, of course, good.”

I think they prefer to be called Commies or Reds,Sick people!

For someone who rails against the “Lame Stream Media”, she sure does a lot of photo shoots for magazine covers.

His article is stupid, no doubt, but the photo shoot WAS designed to show Sarah anything but Presidential. As I mentioned on an earlier post there is not one photo in a suit, in a meeting or, quite telling, with any other people. We may enjoy the beauty of the pics, but make no mistake, Newsweek was not trying to make Palin look like a serious candidate.

She's at home with the family in July. A time to relax. There are plenty of pictures of her dressed professionally and if she runs, she will have to show that image. I'm not worried about it; the article was half-way decent and of course the photos were stellar. (See all the photos here: Sarah Palin's Cover Shoot)

Now talking about dressing professionally, we almost had this as the first female candidate to run for president:

Oh my, that’s painful. I have to go and wash my eyes out with soap.

Here’s the email I sent to Mr. Capehart:

“Dear Mr. Capehart:

Regarding your article http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-partisan/post/sarah-palin-as-newsweek-cover-girl—again/2011/03/04/gIQA0xqo8H_blog.html:

Your changing of this statement ““... especially since this is the second time she has given Newsweek a less-than-presidential pose” to this “... especially since this is the second time she has graced Newsweek in a less-than-presidential pose” is unacceptable for a self-proclaimed Pulitzer Prize winner.

Here’s the research that needs to be referenced in a MUCH more powerful way in your “correction:”
http://www.runnersworld.com/photo/sarahpalin/ (read the Editor’s Note)
http://www.dailyfinance.com/2009/11/18/palin-photographer-breached-contract-with-sale-to-newsweek/

I’ve already emailed Matt Lewis at The Daily Caller, who perpetuated your misinformation in his piece. He had the professionalism to amend his article to reflect the truth. And I’m glad he still has your original wording in his piece - so your cowardly lack of professionalism and integrity is visible for all to see. http://dailycaller.com/2011/07/11/capehart-palin-can%E2%80%99t-possibly-be-taken-seriously-as-a-presidential-contender-dressed-like-that/

I apologize for being combative. But since you tout yourself as a Pulitzer Prize winner in your WaPo biography, I should think you have higher standards than to print articles without doing the proper research. Or, even worse, to know the truth and to purposefully obfuscate it when it is pointed out to you.

Lewis at The Daily Caller showed his professionalism by making his correction clear to all readers. Are you a professional? Or is it time to return that Pulitzer? I think I’ll email him again to thank him again for showing his professionalism - and to point out to him your lack thereof.

Thank you.”

When you spend that much time cleaning game, working on machinery and other outdoor pursuits, you would generally be inclined not to wear your wedding ring.

Please provide Names and how many of the Magazine covers she has done for the LAME STREAM MEDIA?

We know that Newsweek pocketed a ‘Runners World’ magazine picture for their cover but ‘Runners World’ is not the LSM.

We know that she did a photo shoot back in the early days as governor for Vanity Fair - Ok

And She did one at the time of her Resignation for Time magazine -ok

another please?

Poor little Jonathan Capehart, he of the owl glasses, outsized head, undersized stature and narrow shoulders. Did his mummy mistreat treat him as a child, did those mean girls laugh at and beat him up in puberty?

He can now go back on PMSNBC with the forlorn Morn Joe, Mika the vacuous, and all the usual lefty suspects that migrate in and out like so many gerbils on a cage wheel. With this terrific Palin hit piece, they will clap him on the back to congratulate for what they pass off as brilliant wit, from a half wit.

Shen appeared on the cover of InTouch magazine with Bristol. And there’s at least a half dozen others. Yet she’ll still whine and moan about how she’s being mistreated by the big mean media.
