The same way the Jesse rant helps B. Hussein, this will help. The New Yorker is a lib rag, and I'd wager that Obama's handlers are in on the scam. I've skimmed thru all posts and yours is the only one I agree with (I coulda missed one).
This is nothing more than an attempt to diffuse the obvious truth depicted and the Obamination and the New Yorker are COUNTING ON THE BACKLASH, to assist the whitewash.
This is NO DIFFERENT than Hillary dumping all sorts of versions of the truth about Bill's predilictions, and/or his accusers, to diffuse the real truth.

Whether it was done to help or hurt Barry, it will still hurt him as it gets people thinking. I believe McCain already responded by saying it was offensive...but then what was he supposed to say.

I agree.
It’s the ultimate focus group, if it was initiated by the Obama campaign.
If so, they’re peeing into the wind...because as you said it gets people thinking.
Thinking about their backgrounds. Triggering memories of Jeremiah Wright, and not being proud of their country.
LOL! This guy is going down.
But again...who benefits from this cover coming out pre-Denver?

You wrote: “I dropped it because Tina Brown was destroying it.”
Yep. First thing she killed were McPhee’s wonderful pieces on geology and the merchant marine and strange flying machines.

This issue of the magazine will get pulled faster than the Obama sock-monkey.

You need to host it online somewhere. Then, while viewing the hosted photo in your browser, right-click the photo and select "properties".
Then copy the "location" and paste it in the "Your Reply" box (where you type your post). The location code will look similar to this:
http://b9.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/01547/96/74/1547164769_l.jpg
Then type <img src=" before the pasted text and "> after the text so that it looks like this:
<img src="http://b9.ac-images.myspacecdn.com/01547/96/74/1547164769_l.jpg">
The photo will then appear on the web page like this:

The black electorate are the ultimate sheeple. If the Dems stayed in power and wanted to reintroduce slavery, they would still vote 85% to 90% for them.

It looks like the Obamination is looking over his shoulder. Who does he think is sneaking up on him?

The only people to read The NYer are lib elites.
That's not true. Their Arts writing is quite good. As is the fiction (sometimes).

There's nothing counter-intuitive about it. You don't realize how concentrated BHO's image consultants and their friends in the media are on the island of Manhattan. This is not an attack by any means.Sure it's incestuous over there. But I doubt Obama's people had any influence on the New Yorker cover. At best they got a heads up
My take is the New Yorker did this cover to show it is hip and edgy and to boost circulation. Maybe a few Hillary supporters over there too
