Mad Magazine Destroys Obama's Taliban Swap
Breitbart ^ | 6/3/14 | Christian Toto

Posted on 06/03/2014 6:10:37 PM PDT by Nachum

Count Mad Magazine as the first pop culture institution to target President Barack Obama's Taliban prisoner swap.

It's hard to imagine any other humorist in any other medium hitting back quite so hard in the days to come.

The magazine posted a fake movie advertisement for Trading Private Bergdahl, a takeoff on the Oscar-winning film Saving Private Ryan.

The one-sheet features five Taliban soldiers and President Obama with this kicker:

"They got five Taliban leaders. We got one deserting weasel."

I’ve had a subscription since I was in 7th grade. It’s a guilty non caloric pleasure.

I think their readership has gone down because the magazine comes out every other month now instead of monthly. But then it’s not the same, since Don Martin and Dave Berg have passed.

Just because a stopped clock is right twice in a day that doesn't mean it is a good product. With its support of the Ground Zero Mosque (now vastly downscaled) and harassment of George Zimmerman, MAD Magazine leans to the Left.

Don't waste your money. What me worry.

A mosque is a mosque.. scaling down is not a ‘win’

The pieces of shit democrats who ran around talking like “WE WON THEY ARE NOT BUILDING THE HUGE MOSQUE” neglected to say “they are only building a small one”

How did they find any union people to work on this??????

They had to retreat somewhat. Maybe all those protests accomplished something favorable.

Gaines also. He was the founder of it.

You are right. I forgot about Mr. Gaines.

Thanks for reminding me

Who thought of this trade? It like trading Ike, Patton, Bradly, Marshall and MacArthur for Sargent Schultz.
