He's the best player in the game today. He's also a cheater.
Excellent poster.
A player we can't believe in?

Come On! This is such an obvious attempt at negative association it belongs in a pscych 101 class. SHAME SHAME SHAME newsweek, You are inflamatory and biased! Did you make a similar issue of Rush Limbaugh when he was caught illegally buying and using perscription drugs? The message here is we should feel Minority Heros are frauds and will eventually dissappoint us. Obama is the most famous (and important) hero in the world today. Your editorial staff should let go of their peevishness and stop trying to win an election that is lost!
Maybe you should consider this in the light of the whole Obama-era but not taking the connection that seriously. How can you say someone is racist by using the Obama format? That's total nonsense.
The fact A-rod has got that much attention is in my opinion the fact he's been charged with other means of cheating, not only PED.
Maybe you should also take into account the fact that A-rod is all about the money. (remember the deal with the Rangers) This makes him less lovable compared to Clemens.
So think again, before you post about racism or things similar to that subject. The fact you still think in that way, can easily say something about yourself
Come on!
This such an obvious attempt at negative association it belongs in a psych 101 course; The message here is that minority heros are frauds and will eventually let us down. Obama is the world's most famous minority hero. SHAME SHAME SHAME Newsweek. Where is your Rush Limbaugh Dope poster?
let he free of sin cast the first stone. the government,the people,everyone lies, and to top it everyone cheats.only God is perfect.look back at all your polititian.kennedy,clinton,bushes,and many governors around the states selling senate seat and much more that you and i don't know. he did it 6 years ago but everyone else were doing it also. let him be.
newsweek is a right wing neocon magazine, duh, what do you peopel expect. read the articles. It is pathetic, but the enemy is you.
yes, it is funny, and as for the 'iconic, positive Obama image,'....that's a crock....so tired of people seeing the man as some kind of savior....guarantee he's going to disappoint if that's how you see him....and besides, these iconic images have a tendency to be favored by totalitarian regimes as something for the people to gather around
See, this story is about a baseball player cheating and all people are talking about is Obama.. THAT"S the problem with this poster. Newsweek should'nt be in the business of connecting this to our president. Dumb move newsweek.Is it a mistake?
I see newsweek made this poster printable. That's obscene Newsweek. Why do you want these spread around. Is it to get back at Obama supporters? Why do you want people making this connection?
The person who did this(I say person cuz they're no artist) is racist. The mind that would connect Obama and A-Rod in this way obviously Hates both.To put a disgraced ,drug using , athlete under the frame of President Obama and his history making theme of hope is the height of cynicism. It is a blatent (consiously or not) attempt to connect Obama to disgrace, humiliation and cheating. I am offended by this. Is this trying to say that under Obama's "hope" is just another black drug user? This is not art, but thinly disguised racism. Wht aren't you crucifeing Clemens? he lies like Bush and gets away with it. Pitchers don't get BETTER after 30. As far as A-Rod goes,Is this how we reward someone who fesses up? Oh yes, Clemens is white. So am I.
Would you bad talkers rather have Mccain in office? NOt me, I am glad Obama won.
big deal he smoked a little weed. I bet he wasn't the only one there doing it, where are the stories about the other people? It's not like it was a crack pipe. Give the man a break.
What a 'dolt'....what was he thinking???
What a complete 'dolt'
As I recall Roger Clements who is just as guilty as A Rod has not received as much PR as A Rod.His mistaske is intolerable but are we coddling Clements?
As I recall this much publicity has not been or
I am absolutely disgusted by all these negative comments about our president. It seems that all of the commentators listen to Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh etc. without delving into all the deeper problems of our society& believe you me that is only the tip of the iceberg & it certaimly needs a massive overhaul to get this country back to decent moral principles, ethics went out the door in all of the past administrations but the worst was the Bush/Chenay White House. May our new President be given the time to prove himself to the American people. Annette Cosmann
These elite atheletes live in a different world than the rest of us. They must think that they can do anything they want to maintain their superiority. I know they work hard to be the best, but cheating to win is as low as you can go.
not honest! we are told "no lobyists & we get lobbiests. We are told stimulus bill & we get billions for ACORN & 30 million for Pelosi pet project "the swamp harvet frog". We get tax cheats: Gethner, Daschel, and the efficieny czar lady. Honest....? NOT?!!!
not honest! "no lobbyists" - we get lobbyists: then passes a stimulus bill that really has money for his supporters such as ACORN & Nancy pelosi pet projects (30 million for the swamp marsdh frog!!!??? Then hires crooked tax cheats to fill his cabinet; Geithner, Daschel, the efficiency czar woman
not honest
