I don't really see any significance to it.

I see nothing sexist about an image of a man's face between a pair of fat, out-of-focus legs.
What was the context?

Those are Sarah Palin's legs?!! What, is she packing in the sweetrolls?
Sexist ... maybe. The guy seems to be looking off towards the left, so it isn't as if he's slobbering over some pole-dancing stripper.

You can make a picture to lead to the observers to whatever you want, what else is new?

For once, let's cut her some slack. To her credit, one can still discern her ankles.

Well... I dunno about the photo, but some of the comments in the thread about it...
Wow.
I'm definitely offended by some of those.
