- Go to A MORE ACCURATE COVER FOR THE NEW YORKER
Lawdy, you folks do go on... LOL. What a great cover. I especially like
Bush's special place for the Constitution, kooka. It's a good thing that lame duck bastard is gone in six months (maybe we can salvage most of the Constitution from the ashes when he leaves). And as for all the lefties decrying the New Yorker cover, William Bennett was on CNN chastising James Carville for taking it as pure satire. In fact, Bennett said that anyone who sees this cover would realize that this went far beyond satire and into perpetuating the asinine stereotypes and fictitious accusations against the Obamas it was supposedly deriding.

RSM, that was childish
You really need help. The questions you asked made no sense at all then. If you already knew what the image was suppose to represent, why show yourself to be full of ignorant by asking questions that make no sense? What kind of game do you think you are playing here. Because what ever the game is, you keep making yourself to look the bigger fool.
As for the idea that Obama is a racist just because of his religious connections, do we get to use the same logic against Bush and McCain, both of whom talk about how great The Rev. Parsley is and how he should be looked up to and admired, who basically was promoting genocide? I mean by your reasoning, both Bush and McCain are hate-filled a-hole determined that all Muslims need to be destroyed because they praised a man who was a religious guide to them who was is hate-filled and believes we need to destroy all Muslims.
Seriously, you become more and more a hypocrite with your blindness in politics right now. Time and time again the little things you go after in trying to make Obama look worse than McCain just does not work because the same kind of issues are right there on the Conservative side of things. You either need to grow up and start seeing that the small things you pick out are meaningless and should not be looked at above the big picture, or you need to stop displaying your self-imposed ignorance about such things so openly, unless you really enjoy looking foolish at every turn.
And get a sense of humor.

Boy Kooka, Daddy Xeno
Both of you are so humourous! Let me explain something to you. Whatever I write does not exactly mean what I have received from a blog everytime. I get fully well what you meant as I have heard that bull from all lefties on the radio and TV since this cover was put out. I was simply asking you questions, hoping you would answer. Please do not be so elementary.
As far as racial bigots go, do you mean your choice in a candidate, Obama? The same man who spent 20 years in a racists church? The same man who called the honorable pile of cow manure Reverend Wright as his mentor? Do you mean the same man who called his own mom a typical white person? Did you mean the racist Hussein Obama? Oh, I thought you did. I did not think you were talking about Jesse Helms, couldn't have been.

RSM, wow did you ever not get that at all
The obvious concept behind the cover says that Bush is helping Death, I mean tat is what he has done. He started a war just for his own agenda and is responsible of the deaths of thousands of Americans as well as so many others due to invading Iraq instead of doing what was right. How could you not get that?
This cover is actually a much better satire than the Obama one, which was actually not suppose to be anti-Obama, even though it looks to be. No hurt feelings, just disappointed in the New Yorker for messing up on this one.

Ol' Bush is givin' the knuckle to Death (Iraq) and burning the constitution in the fireplace.
quite accurate.

TYPICAL
A weak response given to defend your hurt feelings about your boy Hussein's new cover. A couple of questions here:
1. Are you saying that you think this Bush cover says he will die?
2. Are you saying that Bush's life should be threatened?
What makes you happy about this cover that you have posted here?
