Notice also the US flag in the fire.

The typical reader of The New Yorker may see this as a pro-Obama cover, meant to reassure them that he's still an OK guy, despite the FISA vote and waffling on some other issues.

I think its an American flag burning in the fire place. Plus Osama’s framed picture hangs over the fire place. Pretty juvenile, something a 14 year old could draw.

Me too. Used to love reading the Fiction story each week but at some point the lib bias just got too much.

Way too close to the truth to be effective satire.

Just remember: Hillary hasn’t released her delegates, and the Dems’ convention isn’t until next month...

Why are they both so light-skinned in the cartoon? The artist slipped up, I think.

And once again - the filthy racism is from the left! But it’s ok, cause it’s “satire”.

I don’t feel a bit sorry for them. Looks like a good likeness to me. Heh heh.

Yes, and it shows the first couple - President and First Lady Hussein doing the “fist” ritual as they celebrate the conversion of the White House into a madrassa.

From the KOS kids:
“OMFG! I’m sure it’s some kind of joke right? There’s no other ulterior motive to publish cartoons like this right? They got the new McCain Manchurian Candidate cover lined up for next week right?

This is disgusting. Might be worth cancelling a subscription or two.”

The cartoonists were called to a meeting back in the eighties and told to make their cartoons more political.

This is the perfect issue to have framed for your den.
