But check it out, see if you can find something funnier than mine

The one thing that is irritating me about these photos - especially the ones of her in a bikini or other "sexy" poses, is that it's blatently sexist. I am by no means a die hard feminist, but I do think that we should leave gender out of the election.
I guess the equivalent would be putting Obama's face on racially offensive photos, or putting McCain's face on someone on life support. Tasteless and tacky. I am all about free speech, but there's a fine line between parody and sexism/facism/ageism. And a lot of these photoshopped Palin photos cross that line.
Your photo of Palin in a tight t-shirt is not as bad as some I have seen, but I still think that it's sexist.
FWIW, I am not a Palin supporter.
