The Dull Thud of a New Yorker Towel Snap ... Mark Steyn
Steyn Online ^ | 28 May 2015 | Mark Steyn

The New Yorker cover at right has attracted a lot of comment. It shows Hillary Rodham Clinton outside the locker room trying to get in. But the locker room is full of white Republican males - Walker, Paul, Bush, Cruz, Rubio... Okay, the last couple are Hispanic, but let's not get hung up on details. And Bush identifies as Hispanic on voter registration forms, but let's not get hung up on the paperwork...

But, in fact, the GOP has already let a female into the locker room - Carly Fiorina - plus a black guy - Ben Carson - and an Indian - Bobby Jindal. So nothing celebrates diversity like the locker room for the Republican primary debate: whites, blacks, browns, Hispanics, men, women, old, young... Over in the Dem locker room, there's hardly anybody in there, and the few that are are all white, and old: Hillary, Bernie, Elizabeth Warren.

By the way, is there a whiter cultural artifact than The New Yorker? Mark Ulriksen is the cartoonist, and a useful reminder of why I'll take the Charlie Hebdo crowd any day. He should do a picture of Ben Carson, Carly Fiorina and Bobby Jindal banging to get in the door of his outmoded Republican stereotype.

Looking at the cover of the New Yorker, it seems like Hillary is a pervert, looking through the window in hopes of seeing naked men.

It probably isn’t naked men she’s hoping to see.

Judging by the hair, I'd guess maybe Rand Paul?

That’s a pretty stupid cover. What does it say? Hillary wants to be a Republican? It makes no sense.

The gist of the drawing is that Hillary THE WOMAN!!! (as if you didn't know) is looking at that old (evil) boys club of candidates and wanting in. Poor Hillary....a strong woman just can't catch a break.

I mean, look at how the national media is bombarding her daily with questions about foreign donations to Bill and Hillary's foundation among other possible criminal actions.

Oh wait...they're not??? They're asking Cruz "deep and pertinent" questions about his Cuban background? Well, sooner or later they'll start asking Hillary legitimate questions ....won't they? How long should I hold my breath?

They conveniently left out Dr Ben Carson and Carly Fiorina to make it look like a “good ole boys club”.
