How is that hopey changey thing working? Better than you and your ilk.

How would you know ?

I used to give VF to all the women in the family. My mother liked it a lot. That was back before they turned it over to left wing politics. I haven't bought a subscription since.; 12/20/12, 6:23 PM

Lydia said...: It was a witty comment.

Even the Vanity Fair blogger's knee-jerk anti-Palinism wouldn't allow her to ignore the possibility that it was right up there with Groucho Marx saying he wouldn't want to be part of any club that would have him for a member... although "(definitely subconsciously, because be serious)".; 12/20/12, 6:35 PM

Mary Beth said...: People voted for their choice on Time's website and they picked Kim Jong-un. Obama wasn't even near the top. The names of the nominees, ranked according to the vote, spelled out KJU GAS CHAMBERS.

The people manipulating the voting were from 4chan and reddit. I take this as a clue to Time's relevance, or lack thereof.; 12/20/12, 7:29 PM
Rabel said...: I can't figure it out. Did the writer honestly not get the little joke from Palin? If not, was she blinded by hate or just stupid?

Probably she did but was just trying to fill space and play to the VF readership.

On the other hand, if the editor had to point out the top 100 list reference to her, maybe she is simply dense.; 12/20/12, 7:36 PM

Obviously, she does or she wouldn't get under the skins of all you Lefties.

How is that hopey changey thing working? Better than you and your ilk.

What, you mean fiscal cliff, Benghazi, 10% inflation, 23.6% real unemployment, and a stolen election?

Apparently not.

n.n said...: Time Magazine's designation of "Person of the Year" is ambiguous and therefore unqualified. Whereas the Nobel Peace Prize is purportedly awarded to individuals who embrace and promote peace, or is it "peace".

So, Time Magazine is correct, Obama is ambiguous and unqualified. While the Nobel Peace Prize committee is dead wrong. Obama has conducted, directly and indirectly, regime change in at least three nations. He has fully embraced assassination as a mode of war. He has invaded numerous nations, presumably while the regimes are busy fighting for their survival. He has delegated torture to his preferred terrorists. He has armed both cartels and terrorists alike. He runs trillion dollar account deficits, which devalue both capital and labor, in America, and other nations where they use or denominate their debt in dollars.

Obama is a deserving recipient of the anti-Peace Prize.

Obama is a deserving recipient of Person of the Century, but the century is still young.; 12/20/12, 9:12 PM

cubanbob said...: Palin has an amazing ability to get lefties to froth at the mouth. But for the glossy high end ads what's VF worth purchasing for? Tina Brown has an amazing ability to turn anything she touches in to shit. One day she will be a required study in business school on exactly what not to do.
Time is rapidly approaching the Newsweek Singularity.

Palin really knows how to mock them. Too bad the lefties in their invincible stupidity can't understand how she has made them the butt of her self deprecating humor. But then again what can one expect from the legion of the humorless marching morons?; 12/20/12, 10:02 PM

I can't figure it out. Did the writer honestly not get the little joke from Palin?

Her joke seems to be "According to the NYT, I'm a ditz and ought to be run off the stage."

Is that hard to understand? Especially compared to the Obamao. Wait, maybe he merely has a high EIQ. That's the ticket. I wonder if Barbara Walters would ask him why he smokes.; 12/21/12, 1:24 AM
