KATJA HEINEMANN / AURORA

Demon and Idol
Protesters blast Coulter at the G.O.P. Convention in New York City last year

[tgslTakoma]

Hook, line and sinker!

Any bets on how long Time keeps this photo up?

[lawgirl]

HAHAHAHAH!!!

[Andy from Beaverton]

Does forever count as a guess?

[Lee'sGhost]

Loveitloveitloveit.

[Wormwood]

Man oh man, do I love Useful Idiots.

[Theresawithanh]

Hilarious!

[Dog Gone]

They're not seriously this stupid, are they?

[tgslTakoma]

ping!

[TexasTransplant]

My Favorite "Criminals for Gun Control"

[SShultz460]

Ha!

[eyespysomething]

lol, and the other signs -

Criminals for Gun Control

Liberating Iraqi Children from Tyranny is Co$ting too Much


Does anyone look at the pics?

[tgslTakoma]

Apparently so.

LOL!

[SteveMcKing]

Am I crazy, or does the sign on the edge read "SADDAM KILLED OWLS"?

[Servant of the 9]

Oh, please, let them have printed it in the Story on Ann in the new issue.

So9

[tgslTakoma]

Probably not.

Killing owls is Halliburton's job.

[SteveMcKing]

Do you think this made it into their printed version?

[Maigrey]

Thought you'd get a kick out of this!

[tgslTakoma]

It may be one of their best-selling issues.

It's a good thing that Time Magazine is staffed by professional journalists, and not those dopey and uncredentialed bloggers.

[Caipirabob]

Lordy, does anyone think if the collective staff at TIME magazine put their IQ together would they break into double digits? I think not...

[clintonh8r]

*pant*

[MarkL]

Do you think this made it into their printed version?

If it did, it will be the first issue of Time I bought since their "Death by Gun" issue... I don't remember how long ago that was.

Thanks for the ping. Communists for Kerry blended right in with the protest marchers during the convention march and did not get screened out. So did the tall, handsome guy carrying a sign saying "Gigolos for Kerry" marching all by himself.

Time is too much. They were so enamored of the photo of Ann with her mouth sadistically taped closed that they didn't look closely enough. Superb!

[expatguy]

OMG LMFAO

[mikrofon]

I wonder who's she's giving the "Italian salute" to?

[Theresawithanh]

Did a quick google on Katja Heinemann. She's German, she may have not understood the "nuance" of the Protest Warriors, and "communists for Kerry" may have sounded perfectly fine to her.

[armymarinemom]

OMG this is too funny!! Ann Coulter must love this.

[tgslTakoma]

Hiya, nutmeg. Here's one your ping list might get a kick out of.

[Rastus]

No.

[andyandval]

Didn't notice that til you mentioned it. :D

[Rastus]

Modified for the past tense, since the sign above was used post-capture.

[Ole Okie]

It's a good thing that Time Magazine is staffed by professional journalists, and not those dopey and uncredentialed bloggers.

Yes, bloggers and Freepers have no editors and therefore get things all fouled up. ;^)

[Wormwood]

Shadenfreude

[ChadGore]

<=== laughing hard.

[tgslTakoma]

Protest Warrior / Communists for Kerry ping!

[Polybius]

Remember........

They are the self proclaimed "professionals" and we on FreeRepublic are "amateurs". :-)

[rolling_stone]

Time magazine is right up there with CBS in stupidity...ROFLMAO...

[Polybius]

Do you think this made it into their printed version?

COMMUNISTSFORKERRY.COM hopes it does so they can get the publicity. ;-)

“We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men.” -- George Orwell

Seems Time, familiar as they are with Orwellian doublespeak, would have had someone with intelligence point out to them the concept of sarcasm.

[AQGeiger]

But remember, liberals are the most intelligent folks around.

[DJ Taylor]

Tell it like it is, Ann.

[bray]

Humor is lost on the Serious Liberal Press!! Ann Rox!!

Pray for W and Our Freedom Marching Troops

[ChadGore]

TIME mag says: Protesters blast Coulter at the G.O.P. Convention in New York City last year

When actually the people holding the signs are Ann Coulter SUPPORTERS doing a parody of todays blind liberal hate.

This is just tooooo funny.

[spodefly]

But remember, liberals are the most intelligent folks around.

And we're all just dumb hicks from Jesusland.

Maybe we should let them leave the US to join Canada. The collective IQ of both countries would improve.

[SC Swamp Fox]

Speaking of satire...check this out:

Communists for Kerry

[Polybius]

From communistsforkerry.com:

I love their logo. :-)

[THX 1138]

Amazing! Was that sign just a little too nuanced for them?

[Polybius]

[AQGeiger]

Here's one of my favorite bits of "propaganda" for the Communists for Kerry site. Those folks have a lot of fun.
