She probably meant "sexy".

... what is sexist is a female politician talked about sexually just because she is ... attractive ...

No attractive female will ever avoid being talked about sexually by men.

It's just that since she's a public figure, it'll happen in the open.

Yeah...some people do actually have better manners though.

the pic itself isn't sexist. but, using a pic from a fitness mag on the cover of a 'news' mag to imply anything other than she is in good shape is pathetic....but, then again the lefts infatuation with insulting someone they consider 'a dits that is no threat to them' is pretty pathetic too.

Well its not presenting her in a positive light, I guess you could consider it sexist from that point of view.

As to whether Sarah deserves so much attention, negative or positive, is another matter. Personally I think she doesn't deserve it - and I laughed at CNN last night with Joe the Plumber saying that she had his vote.

I knew I'd seen this before.

Once again, VJ OT scoops Newsweek! :dance:

I still stand by my comment that the photo disrespects the US flag.

Well, if she was outraged by the damn picture, why let them photograph her like that.... wait, it's Sara we're talking about....

Because she knew she'd look good.

Indeed... it's Sara we're talking about.... not a viable, confident and competent candidate...

I disagree with 2 out of 3. She's viable and confident.

Sad, and sadder.

I agree, not sure why so much energy is expended in her direction from anyone who is genuinely political. However, for us in the peanut gallery, it's fun.

The GOP has a few years to groom her for 2012.
