Sure it does, but your use of that was ridiculous. That's wacko feminism type thinking. The "all men are inherently rapists" type extreme feminism. America's Next Top Model also objectifies women and that's a show created by, produced by, and with a target audience of women. Nearly the entire advertising industry is based on objectifying something or someone. The notion that Playboy can be singled out as disgusting for objectifying women is tiresome bra burning feminist rhetoric that has long since been discredited. Rational people now realize that objectification occurs everywhere in modern society and occurs to everyone. Using objectification of women to slam Republicans is just lame at this point. This isn't the 1970s anymore.
Malcolm X
Eldridge Cleaver
Jesse Jackson
George McGovern
Charles Evers
Abbie Hoffman
Daniel Patrick Moynihan (twice)
G. Gordon Liddy

That's just some of political figures, there is significant amount of other people like Bill Gates, Steven Jobs, Mike Wallace, Arianna Huffington........ the list is endless of some very prominent people.

Just a quick list of some of the political figures:
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Fidel Castro
Jimmy Carter
Lech Walesa
Imelda and Ferdinand Marcos
Yasser Arafat
Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.)
They aren't. That's your confusion. You're confusing your strawman fallacies with reality. Just because leftists make up rhetoric about Republicans doesn't make it true. You should try to distinguish between the truth and rhetoric.
Republicans being the party of family values is something that liberals say about Republicans, not something that Republicans say about themselves.
Who was it that wanted to ban music with explicit lyrics? Tipper Gore. The woman that you wanted as first lady. Not me. You.
Oh, this confused me and left me with the impression that the GOP was all about family values.
Playboy reduced to interviewing Dick Cheney. That's more like it.
Exactly. It doesn't matter what sort of magazine Playboy is, what baffles me is that they care what Cheney thinks. Cheney was a failure who was wrong about everything, and everyone but the "my party right or wrong" sort hated him for it. Why does anyone care about what he thinks when he's always wrong? That he's so upset with Obama just tells me Obama's doing a fine job. Can you imagine what an awful scumbag Obama would have to be to win the approval of people like Dick Cheney and his fans?

Can't wait for the celebration when this evil turd dies.
I agree. His death will make the world a better place. I'm planning to take a sickday that day to celebrate.
yes, but its your failure to understand the definitions of words you use that has me wondering whats wrong with our school systems.
objectify: degrade to the status of a mere object.
how does photos of beautiful women, degrade females into just an object? Thats so insulting to women.
My gf, I've seen naked lots of times, that doesn't make her a mere object..
I guess that is difficult for anyone who watches Fox News, where their "newscasters" are blondes who show a lot of cleavage and leg, to understand. For Fox News viewers, objectifying women is a norm.
There is nothing non family values about beautiful women..
I suppose every Conservative, Christian family has the current issue of Playboy on the coffee table next to the bible.
