"The Undefeated" is a movie with Rock Hudson.

Reminiscent of Soviet propaganda posters.

She's an even bigger fraud than I thought!

Vince on June 14, 2011 at 2:01 PM

Wait, this is real?

very bad homo on June 14, 2011 at 2:03 PM

Way too much outer glow.

care bear on June 14, 2011 at 2:12 PM

Needs more flags. And eagles.

Reverse Polarity on June 14, 2011 at 2:15 PM

@5, yeah it gives her a dead Jedi look.

sall on June 14, 2011 at 2:16 PM

Does she train in a cold barn for a big fight with Dolph Lundgren in Russia?

Reg on June 14, 2011 at 2:16 PM

invisible dual handjobs!

deepconcentration on June 14, 2011 at 2:21 PM

But one thing IS right: She truly is a Big Dipper.

LauraD on June 14, 2011 at 2:22 PM

It looks like she's reeling back after being punched in the nose by the microphones. There were cartoony stars and everything.

Zebes on June 14, 2011 at 2:22 PM

2008 wasn't a defeat?

Max Solomon on June 14, 2011 at 2:28 PM

It looks like it was designed by a ten year-old who forgot to take his Adderall...

COMTE on June 14, 2011 at 2:31 PM

Is anyone else seeing fellatio here, or is it just me?

apollonia666 on June 14, 2011 at 2:35 PM

That looks like a beautiful place that some asshole stuck an oil pipeline in.

John M on June 14, 2011 at 2:35 PM

It looks like she's banging Alaska, doggy-style.

"Look Todd! No hands!"

STJA on June 14, 2011 at 2:46 PM

It looks like a piece of pinko propaganda ... which is appropriate since she was half-term guvner of the most ironically red-yet-socialist-state in the nation (gotta get me that OIL MONEY). Not only does that state hand out annual checks totaling $1500-$2000 per person (depending on the price of oil - it's the "people's revenue share" - COMMIE MUCH?) and then she had the stones to hand out additional checks worth $1500 per person in 2008 as a "stipend" to offset the high cost of energy resultant from high energy prices. $3500 for eating, sleeping, pooping, breathing, LIVING. Redneck socialism for everyone, forever. President Palin 2012! The end.

seattlestew on June 14, 2011 at 2:47 PM

... but she lost. How is she undefeated?

on June 14, 2011 at 2:48 PM

@14: Just you.

The rest of us see her squirming away as a pair of giant microphone testicles tries to tea-bag her.

seandr on June 14, 2011 at 2:55 PM

Of all the people who have been completely trounced in recent elections, Sarah Palin is easily the most undefeatedest!

Irving on June 14, 2011 at 2:58 PM

@17 Actually, the additional amount she handed out was $1200.

care bear on June 14, 2011 at 3:12 PM

How come there isn't an option for "the microphone looks like a pair of giant balls"?

Red_Ruth on June 14, 2011 at 3:19 PM

It makes her look like a paper person cut-out and crudely pasted over an idyllic American landscape.

Which is exactly what she is, but you wouldn't think they would want to emphasize that fact.

ckjub on June 14, 2011 at 3:23 PM

@12: Can't lose if you drop out of the race.

suddenlyorcas on June 14, 2011 at 3:31 PM

It's almost the same shot as used in "THREE INVISIBLE DICKS"

(google it)

SoSea Resident on June 14, 2011 at 3:32 PM

I had to vote for any mention of Firestorm, because he is my favorite, even though he is stupid and awful.

DeaconBlues on June 14, 2011 at 3:44 PM

@ 26 dammit I was so close to saying the same thing...and rules 1 & 2, you just lost the game.

Also, did somebody use the fucking magic wand tool when designing this? I sense a lot of magic wand bullshit in this design.

wisepunk on June 14, 2011 at 3:46 PM

Call me an ignorant commie European but the stylized big dipper on an blue background I only know as the flag of the hardline communist Irish Liberation Army (INLA) an dissident republican terrorist group in northern Ireland.
Not really sure that's the symbolism she wants to be going for.

dutchie on June 14, 2011 at 4:27 PM

Meglomaniac much?

moretent on June 14, 2011 at 4:40 PM

1) The background is tilted to the right. Nice.

2) The big dipper and giant star are a little hammer-and-sickle-esque, no? That has to be an inside joke.

3) The literal fire in the belly is kind of amusing, but makes her look pregnant. Maybe that's intentional too.

also on June 14, 2011 at 4:44 PM

(Confidential to dutchie@29: that is also the flag of the state of Alaska, where she was briefly governor for a half term before she quit. To be fair, when I Googled the INLA flag, it is remarkably similar to the Alaska flag.)

Reverse Polarity on June 14, 2011 at 4:44 PM

@ 32 i already assumed something like that...

dutchie on June 14, 2011 at 5:04 PM

did anybody else automatically rotate the microphone 180 degrees? My mind tells me that microphone could be even more phallic with a little help.

Purocuyu on June 14, 2011 at 6:00 PM

reminds me of Dianetics somehow.

St. Beretta on June 14, 2011 at 6:05 PM

The flags are her giant distended labia from giving birth to here daughter as she gave birth to the prop-baby.

Chicago Fan on June 14, 2011 at 7:21 PM

You know, although I disagree with Sarah Palin on just about everything, I do feel some solidarity with her when the jibes against her take on a misogynist edge. (I feel the same way about Hillary Clinton.)

Before you all get your defensive hackles up, I'm not saying any commenter here is a misogynist person. I am saying your comment is a misogynist comment if it combines (a) scorn with (b) sexualization. Neither element is necessarily misgynist on its own, understand, but when combined they definitely produce a certain "ick" factor.

I'm sure no one means any harm. Please just be a little more thoughtful next time the temptation arises.

Portlander on June 14, 2011 at 7:50 PM

Stop promoting Sarah Palin.

vamos on June 14, 2011 at 8:02 PM

@37
Palin uses her womanhood and her motherhood and her highly-fuckable for a certain demographic looks as political ammunition. What you're perceiving as misogyny is just people who disagree with her fighting against her on the terms she herself has set.

Chicago Fan on June 14, 2011 at 9:07 PM

The background actually looks more like the European Union flag than the American flag.

on June 14, 2011 at 11:46 PM

It's true - she's undefeated.... because she quit !

TreGibbs on June 14, 2011 at 11:58 PM

Satan's number one hoe bag?

Pocket Panda on June 15, 2011 at 12:05 AM

I think she might be in a toboggan.

maschu on June 15, 2011 at 6:00 AM

@2, she could see soviet propaganda posters from her house.

Um, didn't she actually get defeated in the presidential election?

Root on June 15, 2011 at 8:41 AM

I like this one better: http://s-ak.buzzfed.com/static/imagebuzz…

dwightmoodyforgetsthings on June 15, 2011 at 10:45 AM

There are 9 separate graphic ideas in this poster. Count'em - NINE!
1- Mountain (alaska! inspirational peak!)
2- Star (Lone Star? Star of bethlehem?)
3- Prairie (Real Murka)
4- Pipeline (Drill Baby Drill!)
5- Stars (more stars!)
6- Portrait from below (I'm someone to look up to, I'm powerful, I'm gazing into the distance because I have 'vision')7- Explosion (Fire in my belly, and subtly militaristic)
8- Flags (I'm patriotic! and subtly militaristic)
9- The title (Declarative, absolutist, and subtly militaristic)

Thats Graphic Design FAIL
