Caption the Cover of the New Yorker
NRO ^ | July 13,2008 | Byron York]

Posted on 07/13/2008 10:12:42 PM PDT by AmericanMade1776

The magazine says the cover art, featuring Barack Obama and his AK-47-toting wife in terrorist garb in the Oval Office, with a portrait of Osama bin Laden above the mantel and an American flag burning in the fireplace, "satirizes the use of scare tactics and misinformation in the presidential election to derail Barack Obama's campaign." But the Obama campaign is denouncing the cover, saying The New Yorker's editors might believe the picture is "a satirical lampoon of the caricature Sen. Obama's right-wing critics have tried to create," but it is fact "tasteless and offensive."

Can we mail this to every Hillary supporter? Get them all riled up again.

Good idea. I don't know if you can attach a pic in an email to any of the political web sites.

I can’t help but believe the Clintons pulled some strings to get that cover on that magazine. Anybody heard from Hillary about this cover? Any comments from the Clintons? Hmmm...?

Hey Jeff,

What do you think about getting some of these photos spread around the internet? Hussein is displaying hatred and arrogance in these photos.

These photos cannot be construed by anyone as "out of text sound bites" or "slanted Republican journalism."

The first one should be on the cover of Time Magazine.

Does anyone know what “www.donkeydish.com” is? And why did I get a request to place a cookie on my computer from that site when I clicked on this thread?

Absolutely.

Obama is evil and hatred personified.

His menacing presence is anything but "hopeful."

Sometimes when people steal links they also get code for the cookie with it...

Deny cookie, keep freeping...

And yep, could be a bad cut and paste in the thread (although I haven't seen any popups) or it could be an infection from another site trying to hijack that user's browser.

To the tune of “Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off”:

You say Obama
And I say Osama.
You say Hezbollah
And I say Hez-bah-lah.
Obama, Osama
Hezbollah, Hez-bah-lah
Let’s take the flag pins off!
Yes, let’s take the damn things off.
