On the cover of Rolling Stone...

[sfecap]

Gosh he sure looks angry...

[lancdem]

1. I remember Bill Clinton's Rolling Stone interview in 1992

I loved it.

[Ripley]

2. But My God, he's revealing his elbows!

Such a faux pas for the fashion-conscious youth readers!!

[zbdent]

10. (not bashing, but) Nope, classic PR move

When business is good, the chiefs at a corporation are portrayed in the annual reports wearing their jacket and ties.

When times are rough (profits not as much as hoped, or facing losses), the CEO / staff are portrayed with shirtsleeves rolled up, like they're working hard.

Bet you could find a few "annual reports" with Bush in his suit. And the annual report the year after he left (if the company was still around) would have all the execs with their shirtsleeves rolled up.

No, I'm not bashing Dean. But it is classic PR. And we are in a rough ride. Watch for Bush(it) wearing his sleeves rolled up, if the economy really starts SHOWING.

[Ripley]

14. It was sarcasm.

Some people here at DU like to mock Dean because he rolls his shirtsleeves up past his elbows. I guess they prefer the way Kerry folds his neatly up only halfway between his wrist and elbow.

3. Also in this week's New Yorker

A long article about him! He's sure getting some great P.R.

[RogueTrooper]

4. Yeah Baby

B-)

[KissMyAsscroft]

5. Yeah, he looks soooo angry.

:eyes:

[HFishbine]

6. Does he use the "F" word? (nt)

[killbotfactory]

7. Nice...

Go Dean!

[RUMMYisFROSTED]

8. Definately looks pissed!

[rucky]

9. Kid Rock has really changed his look.

oh...nevermind.

[MoonAndSun]

11. Great picture!

I'll have to buy the issue.

The Doctor Is In!!

[Tatiana]

12. Niiiiiiiiiiiiiice cover! n/t

[CMT]

13. that is one angry looking dude

I will have to get that issue.

[DianeK]

15. but why are they featuring him!?

everyone knows that he has peaked

[sandnsea]

16. That's a nice cover and a lucky break

No matter how much I don't like him, I'd much rather see covers like this then some of the other stuff he's gotten. What a lucky break to get this article out now.

[dajabr]

21. Dean + Good = Lucky Break

Ever think his Campaign may create some of these breaks?

[Walt Starr]

17. Gonna buy five copies for my mother

:evilgrin:

[PAMod]

19. Oh, great. Now I'll have that song running through my head all day.

What a great cover. The Doctor is, indeed, in.

[WilliamPitt]

18. Where's the giant cock shot a la Al Gore?

:)

[dajabr]

20. Forearms are this year's "cock"

Can't wait til this hits the mailbox! Whooo!

[reachout]

22. Come on,

even if you like the guy, you have to admit his smile is a little creepy sometimes. I should know, I do the same thing when asked to smile for the camera.

[slinkerwink]

23. awesome cover!

[AntiCoup2K4]

24. Damn, now I'm sorry I cancelled my subscription...

Too many N'Suck covers made me drop Rolling Stone, but I might have to buy this one :)

[cryofan]

25. LOL! But Dean does not reflect Rolling Stone readership politics!

They would rather decriminalize marijuana, like Kucinich.

The readership of Rolling Stone is completely out of whack with cryptoRepublican Dean, and more in line with Kucinich.

Of course, Kucinich, in order to pay for social programs, would raise taxes on the rich (people like multimillionaire Dean and the owners and management of Rolling Stone). Dean would cut social programs by raising the Social Security retirement age to 70, for example.
So they engage in yet another example of media manipulation by putting Dean on the cover rather than someone who reflects their own readership....

26. Yeah, but

[HFishbine]

27. About your link

Your link leads to partial quotes. Why not link to the original source, the Socialist Review?
