Is this an Easter Miracle? (The Apple on Michelle O's Newsweek Cover Has a Strange Reflection)

Have you seen Lady M on the cover of Newsweek? She’s talking about her No Child's Fat Behind program again. But that’s not why I’m bringing this up.

I’m just wondering; is it just because I spend my life reflecting things that I immediately thought: WTH is that reflection in the apple? Is it Leo Tolstoy? KSM? Karl Marx? Muhammad? ( I sure hope not, I understand we’re not supposed to reproduce his image, period.) Are those horns spouting from the top of his head? Where did they get this evil apple, from the Tea Partiers? Raj said it really did look like the Shroud of Turin to him, but what would he know – he’s a Buddhist.

If it is Karl Marx, some right wing nut is probably going to say it has something to do with indoctrinating the children in our schools or something: “feed your children well”? What were they thinking?

You would think, with all the little people we employ around here, that this sort of PR disaster would never happen. And doesn’t Newsweek hire editors anymore?

I’m going to take some aspirin, get a glass wax and have Raj check to make sure my lens are in focus. It’s going to be a long week.

I am now thinking it looks like Rasputin with the shadow of alien projected behind him. Rasputen or one of a number of Indian Gurus.

Subliminal Marxism.

I vote Rasputin... or Marx.

It’s Leon Russell...

A photoshopped image on Marx on an apple in front of My Michelle on the cover of Newsweek. This is delicious. This crew is way beyond incompetent.

Obviously, Chas. Darwin

I reckon she couldn’t have drummed up a campaign against ‘Obesity’. Like a good progressive, she excluded herself.

I thought it looked a little like Charles Manson!

It’s Carl Marx from the cover of Communist Manifesto

Bingo, my thoughts exactly. If I didn’t suck at HTML I’d post the pic. Charlie Manson, spittin’ image.

Has anyone seen a street copy of the magazine yet to verify?

I was at the dentist office this morning and they didn’t get their issue yet. My Conservative Dentist is now dying to see it.
