Boycott People Mag! They did NOT choose Obama for "Sexiest Man Alive"
Edited on Wed Nov-19-08 01:16 PM by Clio the Leo
Seriously! Why am I ACTUALLY dissapointed in this! I know, I know, he's the president not a movie star and we have to be seriously-minded but still!!

HE's BARACK OBAMA!!!!!

I dont know much, but THIS guy:


Is 10,000 times sexier than this old nasty, hairy thing!
(Hugh Jackman, the man People chose as their "Sexiest")


Plus THIS guy...


... is gonna provide universal health care, lower our taxes and get our men and women out of Iraq! Now THAT is HOT!!!!

The choice is OBVIOUS!!!!! LOL

3. People can't help being hairy
Do you propose that he undergo expensive painful treatments to lessen his hirsute-ness

Just to satisfy your standards of attractiveness?

Your arms might be in motion a little bit but you could spend that same time doing real excercises

50. Fur is in - Call PETA
What is it with North American women and their love for hairless men. If I wanted the smooth experience I'd fuck a dolphin. Or a woman, I suppose.

12. thank goodness for THAT!!
I hate the objectification of our leaders. It diminishes their stature in the eyes of the world and displays the shallowness of the American people.

The magazine did us and Obama a real favor.

He's the president-elect, facing more troubles than any since Lincoln.

Not a movie star.

it which further offends the Stars and Stripes. :evilgrin:

39. I think labeling the President "sexiest man alive" ...
.. is a little demeaning. I didn't expect them to do that. Maybe like on the "50 most beautiful" list or something. But Sexiest Man Alive is too superficial for Obama.

46. I thought the exact same thing
and wasn't impressed with any of the new ones I saw on the list.

And I think it would be great if this country would finally grow up, or take the stick out, or whatever it needs to do to acknowledge basic human sexuality.

Barack, and Michelle, are both... HOT HOT HOT.

55. I'm sorry. I'm gonna have to go with Hugh Jackman. For the 1st time ever, I agree with People's
choice for Sexiest Man Alive.

He is the epitomy of what I consider a man that drives my hormones crazy! He's purrrrrrfect!

Obama's sexy, too, as are many others. But Jackman is in a class by himself. (Is it warm in here?)
