Shameful use of an iconic American image, one of strength and self- sacrifice. Palin as Rosie the Riveter is insulting. Her politics and ethics are more representative of Ma Barker. It deeply offends me to see Rosie associated with this scheming and manipulative woman. What right does the Republican Party have to hi-jack this beloved symbol for use in their campaign of vituperation? American's remember the real values and spirit our Riveter represents. The only way Gov Palin can aspire to Rosie's legend is to have her egotistical head photoshopped over the inimitable original.
