About the New Yorker Cover
Posted by: Amanda Carpenter at 7:53 AM
Some people are saying this cover is a parody of the image right-wingers have created of Barack Obama. Apparently, it's a "political poster for conservatives to reinforce their messages." Who knew the New Yorker was carrying water for us!

  Too bad this is both ridiculous and untrue. If Michelle was willing to tote a gun into the White House, I can guarantee she'd have a lot more support from us, lol.

Home, Mrs. Ramsey.
Sorry to devestate your little Republican induced dream, but this 100% American family is home for six weeks and Galveston, Texas has never looked more beautiful. We're full US citizens, property owners, voters -- who probably pay a heck of a lot more taxes than you.

Again, the basic ignorance of you right-wing freaks is amazing. An "ex-pat" is merely an individual who happens to be living and/or working abroad.

And, yes, you people have to convince a big number of your ilk that Obama is some kind of monster from Aladdin's lamp if you hope to win. This cartoon is EXACTLY the inspiration you people need.

Regarding Germany, again your ignorance is overwhelming. JFK's "jelly donught" speech was given in front of Rudolph Wilde Platz. Obama's is to be given in front of Brandenburg Gate.

No wonder your a Republican.

ex-pat...
Way cool, now we know exactly why you are hanging your hat in Geneva...

Obama may visit you later, you know he has problems with truly patriotic people and wants to high-tail...or should I say tuck tail out of Irak...can anyone say Yellow?
and then he wants to stand in one of Germany's greatest site, as if he was President, and give a speech on...what precisely? why the Americans went from soldiers-to gutless. Oh shame give yourself a pat in the back at least you are an ex...

Unfortunately, it will serve as
confirmation of what many right wing knuckledraggers already believe. And for those more "sophisticated" conservatives, this is what happens when you put all your eggs in the xenophobe basket.

Maybe....
... it might be satire, but it is exactly the image that the Right has to use to scare the trailer park crowd.

Save Some Time
Thank you for fixing the link.

To TH readers, don't waste time from your life looking at that link. It's madness. Imagine Kimberly X 1,000, and you'll have an estimate of what's going on there.

Hey, liberals corner the market on sophisticated humor and intellectual prowess. Who needs the Muslim stereotypes anyway? As bad as McCain's campaign has been so far, Obama can't get any traction because he puts his foot in mouth every time he takes a position.
Mrs Ramsey writes: Monday, July, 14, 2008 9:03 AM
oh SAM
how right you are. But with that mouth that woman doesn't need a weapon she is already lethal. too bad they don't use it on each other...that would be fun! oh I can really say what I need...benefit of being coffee colored.HAH!

To be fair:
They also did a parody of the Left with their cover of BushHitler.


Oh wait....

Link Leads Nowhere
Fix the link.

Beyond that, how is anyone who doesn't support Obama supposed to respond? You protest, then you're a dimwit because you don't "get the nuance" of satire. You laugh, then you're a racist because you can't possibly be enlightened enough to "get the nuance" of satire. You say nothing, then you're a racist because you're not protesting.

It's a no-win situation. I say ignore it. And print a copy of it free from the Internet and laugh about it in the privacy of your own home...because we know it's not satire, it's the truth!
