This 1981 beauty is part of a feature on the "Worst TIME Covers" on Time.com. But seriously, what do you think? Love 'em or hate 'em?

Update: An alert reader points out that one of the reporters on the cat cover story was, get this, Maureen Dowd.

    I'd love to see more covers like this. I'm sick of looking at people or things that make me angry or sad. Whoever complained about this cover was just looking for attention.

    Justin-

    I was directed here by Karen at Swampland. I am hoping you will post about the President's comments to the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce yesterday. He was bragging about how wonderful the economy is thanks to his tax-cuts.

    Thank you
