25. Why do you feel the need to disparage the only person who ....

can save this nation.

God picked her to be the immaculate candidate. Pure and innocent. Untouched.

Oh crap, who am I kidding, she look like a Stepford wife.

Empty, glazed expression ... kind of like the one she will wear seconds before God tosses this evil nut into the hell she wants for others.

Hope she takes a sun screen of at least 100000000000000000000000000000000000

[surrealAmerican]

42. This is a bit off topic, but ...

... once I see a picture that makes moire patterns when I scroll, I can no longer read. That is an impressive one too.

[mascarax]

48. +1

i DO feel hypnotized now!

[hlthe2b]

53. A little bit scary, isn't it?

I'm not sure I'd want to be alone with her! (for many reasons) ;)

[CaliforniaPeggy]

6. She did this deliberately???

I guess she thinks this is an attractive look.

Wow.

:crazy:

[alcibiades_mystery]

7. U remember when the NY Times had a similar photo of Rick Lazio when he wass running against Hillary

Between that and shoving the paper in her face at the debate, he was sunk from the get.

Voting for Hillary Working Families Party, November 2000, Park Slope, Brooklyn. The day Al Gore won the Presidency.

[immoderate]

33. Lazio does not bring much, even to this day.

--imm

[Warpy]

8. Perfect

The editorial staff might be a bunch of right wing idiots but apparently they couldn't find any photographers who bought their line of crap.

Remember the one showing Coulter's size 17 feet?

[lpbk2713]

9. Someone cue the "Twilight Zone" theme.

... and in walks Rod Serling.


:rofl:

[WhiteTara]

10. What does that woman look at?

She always seems to be looking at some unseen to the rest of us, object in the air.

[11 Bravo]

11. Teabaggers are going to be pissed to see their spank bait with crow's feet, a turkey neck ...

and Charlie Manson eyes.

[Iggo]

17. Nah, they're okay with the eyes. (n/t)

[MannyGoldstein]

12. Photog should get a Pulitzer. nt

[Botany]

13. She would not look so crazy if she had not married ....

.... a gay man.

Full blown bat shit crazy :rofl:

[DJ13]

14. When her bid for the WH fails she would be the perfect spokeswoman for

Starbucks.

"Double Latte, and hurry!"

[Blue_In_AK]

15. At least she's not doing pin-up photos

like Sarah.

[Oceansaway]

16. shows how hardup Newsweek is...nt

[Cirque du So-What]

18. I especially agree with the bottom line of text on that cover page

'The Evils of Government'

Absolutely goddam right. She is the epitome of everything that is evil about government.

Here's my wish for her campaign:

[lumberjack_jeff]

19. NO MORE WIRE HANGERS!!!

[JoePhilly]

20. Yikes!!!! Looks like she just saw the image of jesus in a piece of toast!!

[spanone]

36. Damn she look as though she's under some form

of hypnosis. I remember Chris Matthews ask her about that, he may have been on to something.

[Liberal_Stalwart71]

37. YUCK!! This is the worst pic I've ever seen of her. Truly crazy!

She's an attractive woman, but she looks 100% certified here!

[onehandle]

38. OhMyGod. When I read that she was on the cover, I expected a well crafted photo to hide the crazy.

But, no. It goes right to her soul. Crazy to the core.

Tina Brown is a horrible, horrible 'editor.' But this time she got it EXACTLY RIGHT.

[TeamsterDem]

40. Such a beautiful and intelligent woman ...

Yes, I'm referring to Jennifer Granholm whose name appears on that same cover

[proud patriot]

43. ROFLMAO

[Buns_of_Fire]

44. That picture should work well on the "Bachmann/Manson 2012" posters. nt

[TeamsterDem]

64. LOL!!!!!!!

[Beaverhausen]

45. Someone needs to teach that woman how to look into a camera

first, it was her far away gaze for the 'tea party response' to the SOTU, now this. :rofl:

[Poll_Blind]

49. She's ready for her close-up, Mr. DeMille!

Repeat: Do not look directly at the candidate

[Imagevision]

60. Every picture tells a story don't it...

[Rex]

61. I had to go back and look at them eyes one more time.

Worthy of a second post...hello candidate crazy pants! Meet your partner...Rick Perry!

OMGZ! Better yet meet his campaign manager!


"Look senator, I told Rick that eating babies is an unknown known in the Bible! Someone pass the Tums(tm)!"

[Imagevision]

62. I think this is a true picture of this woman, really, check those eyes out...

[Amerigo Vespucci]

63. Either that's HEAVILY airbrushed or her makeup "artist" really laid on the spackle.

Seriously...that looks more like a rubber Bachmann action figure than Bachmann. I've seen her in full war paint and she's not that smooth. Look at her chin! She looks like the late Rondo Hatton, A.K.A. "The Brute Man."



Some Photoshopper at News-weak really effed up.

[TwilightGardener]

65. I'm going to have to rip off the cover of that issue when it comes in the mail--

because I just know her eyes will follow me. Don't want that on the nightstand. :scared:

[Odin2005]

66. OMG, she has Charles Manson eyes!

[Beartracks]

67. If you don't like government, don't run for the job. n/t

[Contrary1]

68. Well, damn. This Teabagger figured it all out:

"They are after Bachmann because she DARES criticize where perverts put their genitals....how dare she care what children are told is normal and natural. She will be destoryed....can’t have logic and reason seep into children’s minds or truth be heard. Got to SILENCE her as the Nazis did all news that didn’t agree with their allowed thinking..."

We must abort Plan A, and commence with Plan B immediately! :rofl:

[Amonester]

69. YIKES!

[Chimichurri]

75. Her camp must be so pissed about this. Not only does she have crazy eyes but

the lighting is so harsh. I love it.

[Dad Infinitum]

76. I remember the first time I saw her in a TV interview

She had that exact look. My religious right neighbor has a similar look on her face.

[lunatica]

77. Where's her fucking flag pin?

[deutsey]

78. Charles Manson had a sex-change operation?

[barbtries]

81. But Newsweek missed this: "First They Came for the Lightbulbs..." - Mother Jones on Bachmann

Edited on Thu Aug-04-11 02:25 PM by Bozita
First They Came for the Lightbulbs...
The conspiracy theory behind Michele Bachmann's war on energy efficiency.
— By Tim Murphy
Thu Aug. 4, 2011 3:00 AM PDT

Few issues get Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) going quite like lightbulbs. At campaign stops across the country, she has repeatedly denounced a 2007 law that required manufacturers to develop energy-efficient lightbulb varieties. Bachmann sees the law as an affront to American values. "I think Thomas Edison did a pretty patriotic thing for this country by inventing the lightbulb," she told a New Hampshire audience in March. "And I think darn well, you New Hampshirites, if you want to buy Thomas Edison's wonderful invention, you should be able to!"

In reality, no one's stopping New Hampshirites (or anyone else, for that matter) from buying any kind of lightbulb they please—even the incandescent variety that Bachmann warns will be outlawed unless we pass the Better Use of Light Bulbs (BULB) Act that she supported. (BULB would repeal the energy-efficiency rules.) But Bachmann's crusade is about much more than energy-conserving bulbs: The Minnesota congresswoman is part of a movement that considers "sustainability" an existential threat to the United States, one with far-reaching consequences for education, transportation, and family values. If Bachmann is right, lightbulbs will soon be the least of our worries.

Bachmann's concerns may have been best articulated in an interview she gave to the American Family Association's OneNewsNow in 2008. As Republicans in Washington revolted over the rising costs of gas, the then-freshman congresswoman outlined the stakes:

"This is their agenda—I know it's hard to believe, it's hard to fathom, but this is 'Mission Accomplished' for them," she said of congressional Democrats. "They want Americans to take transit and move to the inner cities. They want Americans to move to the urban core, live in tenements, take light rail to their government jobs. That's their vision for America."

82. Well

[Pacifist Patriot]

83. Combination of batshit crazy and a half-ass plastic surgeon.

[krabigirl]

84. Wow, what an unflattering photo. Creepy!

[K8-EEE]

85. Not normal to see the whites above your eyeballs. Try it.

You have to make a really extreme face to have whites showing above and below your eyeballs.....she's so botoxed that her face is paralyzed above the brows and probably a bad eyebrow lift completed the CRAZY FACE. Well and the other thing, she's crazy, so there's that.

[NBachers]

86. Scary- I don't know if I can even improve on the original
