Sarah Palin's physical appearance is now far game...


Funny & rugged sides of Sarah Palin

Did John McCain’s VP vetters see all of these?

A slew of photos documenting Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin’s private life emerged Saturday, showing the many sides — some decidedly more conservative than others — of McCain’s newly minted running mate.

There she is a college student inside her University of Idaho dorm flaunting a T-shirt with a titillating message: “I may be broke but, I’m not flat busted

5. She was all of what... 19 there?
Fair game is her ties to big oil. Or her scandalous issues with "cleaning up" Alaska. Her harsh anti-environmentalist stance. Her anti-gay legislation. Lack of experience. Trying to limit women's choice.

Who the fuck cares what she LOOKS like?

9. That pic of her pregnant...
That early, younger pic of her pregnant is VERY different from the ones taken when she was recently *allegedly* pregnant with the baby that is now a Down's Syndrome baby. The pic of her pregnant in the early years shows her belly as massive. The pics of her pregnant recently show her as being flat-bellied. How much of a liar can this woman possibly be???

she was in touch with on her trip that everyone is so upset about. And the hospital she was in. These are PUBLIC RECORDS folks. Or do you believe there is a massive conspiracy that includes her ob and the entire hospital staff? Good grief.

20. Exactly
Everyone has pictures taken of them in HS/college that they wouldn't want revealed. This is a losing point, just like McCain being a POW.

We should talk about her views on oil drilling or aerial gunning of wolves, etc. That's what she should be getting attacked on.

But I'm standing in the way.

bragging on her boobies? i have seen plenty of t-shirts along the lines of "I'm so hot," etc.... and obama is supposedly just like britney spears and paris hilton. right. this is no surprise given her beauty contest background. but seriously, this is who we want handling the presidency (potentially)? and this is appealing to women voters?

44. It's called Hunting. It ends up with a dead animal.
My two uncles and my grandfather took my sister and I on a hunting trip to Canada when we were around the same age. There were dead bears, elk, one moose, and assorted other stuff I remember.

You may not realize it, but this is perfectly normal.

It's up to her if she wants to change her appearance. I think she's pretty, just batshit crazy. The fact that she could be the leader of the free world is an insult to all women.

I just don't understand it. There are so many issues to focus on with this candidate and this place is OBSESSED with her child, parenting choices, and looks.

Really?

None of those things matter. What matters is her ties to big oil and her anti-choice rhetoric, trying to bring religion, nay, Christianity into public schools, the way she financially ruined a city and on and on and ON, ffs.

morning and she reminded me that we love to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. I used to get really pissed when she would say that, a fellow progressive and dem, but I couldn't say much this time. She'd been in the hospital all week and when she got home and read this stuff here and elsewhere she immediately called me about it................

And here I'm giving out web addresses for my rightie family and some friends to get the "real" facts and this is the shit they read.................

I understand what you are getting at with the beauty trap thinking. But it is not that she is pretty, or has an amply endowed bosom. What is the point of her advertising her bosom? Is beauty her identity? Let's see how this plays with women!

the social conservatives are elated!


why concentrate on her looks, or other trivia?

dems should be concentrating on how to get out the vote, and how to reach independents

the right wing is ecstatically happy to have Palin on the ticket

78. Cause and effect (and concern)
Edited on Mon Sep-01-08 10:25 AM by Moochy
I agree with your subject, Palin is a Christian Dominionist wack-job and religious right is pleased despite her womanhood.

However, to my subject line...
Cause and effect, they still matter you know? I'm all for taking responsibility for one's actions but only so far as reality will support. For you to believe that the posts attacking her here on DU will *ACTUALLY* rally conservatives to her side, is frankly more than a bit silly.

1) Your scenario requires that an on-the-fence conservative must visit Democratic Underground with an open mind about Palin.
Pretty unlikley.
2) Then this voter decides based on some "attack" posts on an "opposition" message board to vote for Palin out of sympathy is also unrealistic.

However you want to post these "watch what you post" messages, friendly or otherwise, they seem to urge DU'ers to censor themselves over the CONCERN of what others might think!

81. huh?
are you posting in response to my post to the op?

if so, did you read my post?

i said to read the replies to the daily news article, that followed that article. i was not referring to du posts, but to daily news posts. i said so in plain english.

my point is: dems can tear her apart all they want, but rethugs love her

right now rethugs are using dem criticisms to their advantage

73. Its pretty fucking amazing that so many of these posts call the OP sexist...
while standing up for a woman who is ripping on small-breasted women. You cant talk about *her* looks... but she can make fun of mine. Sick irony. :banghead:

74. I think it's lame. I am well-endowed and would be so embarrassed to wear a shirt like that.
Yes, even at 19. What was she thinking? And it's rude to women who are small-chested.

76. If Palin can be accused of anything, it cannot be because of her looks. She is a very pretty woman
on the outside. It's what's inside that is abhorrent.

79. ZOMG! I am not voiting for her now...
I was going to, but not after you posted this picture and I see that she has the gall to make fun of women who have small breasts.
