It May (or may not) Have Been Meant To Be Satire .....
Topics: Political News and commentariesHowever, you have to admit ....;
... there's an extraordinary ring of truth to it, is there not (perhaps it hits a bit too close to home) ?
Think of the Obamas in the Oval Office, away from the public, cutting loose for the first time since the election, laughing together, and revealing their true selves. So is it satire or insight?
Like I said, I don't see a problem here - except, of course, that it's a typical Muslim reaction to a cartoon.
As a commenter wrote at Lucianne.com: "Michelle as "Professor" Angela Davis? Barack Hussein as Bobby Seale? The problem?
And then there are these interesting tidbits about Barack Obama's Marxist mother, the validity of which seems to be yet undetermined. Although it seems to be validated by a Chicago Tribune piece that says that in reality Obama's mother was a radical Marxist and avowed atheist. (While on the campaign trail, Obama portrays his mother as a Donna Reed like-woman from the heartland in Kansas. It's another Obama lie. While born in Kansas, his mother spent all of her teen years in Seattle hanging out with other young Marxists in Seattle's coffee shops.)

Shame on the New Yorker! How dare they print such a portrayal of Obama and his wife as a "satire" on their cover...and then forget to include Michelle wearing her favorite "Che Guevara" T-shirt, and the quaint framed quilt on the wall (for homely ambience) reading - no, not the usual "Home Sweet Home", but - "God Damn America" just as the Obamas faithfully concurred with Rev. Wright for twenty years from the pews!
Shame on The New Yorker for doing a half-ass job of caricaturing Obama! Lol!
The fact remains, that satire or not, and whether the New Yorker's intended effect may have actually "backfired" on them - being they are a liberal "pro-Obama" publication - the cartoon outrages the left, Obama, and his supporters, simply because in jest or not, it lampoons what a growing number of people perceive to be the more sinister, innermost, true "sympathies" of Obama that lie behind his public façade.
