Have you heard about Tina Brown’s provocative New Yorker cartoon magazine? Well, some wacky kids in Georgetown claim to have found some rejected Barack Obama cover illustrations, such as this one, showing the Maoist basketball Soviet with his Nazi car loaded with change he stole from Christian collection plates, in Pennsylvania.

What the fuck are those fucking people at the New Yorker smoking?
And he has girly arms. That’s the worse offense. Hillary has more muscle than that.
Those are some of the sloppiest photoshops I have ever seen.
Worst.Photoshop.Ever.
But funny!
Oh lord.
Welcome to 4 long years of humorless leftists endlessly whining about parody and satire.
Makes a Lada sense to me.
[re=35739]columnv[/re]: Yugo do better.
My fav is #4, Sheik Kalid OBama Muhammmed before we waterboarded him and shaved his entire torso. Sans shaving cream. Or razor.
[re=35745]Canuckledragger[/re]: I’m the guy responsible for the Iranian missile picture.
Beat that!!!
That is one sweet hoopty.
If it was mine, I’d roll it right on up to the front of the Washington Monument and watch every single man, woman and child…ignore it and keep stuffing their gobs with cotton candy.
Seriously, a hammer and sickle? Does that scare ANYBODY anymore? Hell, I’d get more apprehensive watching reruns of Hogan’s Heroes.
[re=35740]Cicada[/re]: Good enough to fool half of the electorate in a direct-mailing campaign.
The revolution will be luxurious!
Come on! You know any self-respecting black man would have 26′s on those tires.
Wait – what are 26′s??
Plus he’s parked at the servants’ entrance. Those college kids, what wits.
I need to know what the Comics Curmudgeon thinks before I can decide whether this was funny or offensive.
[re=35750]Lorax[/re]:
That Rolls is fucking AWESOME. Peep the bright red wheels. I want it!
I swear I was not responsible for any of these terrible photoshops in the slightest.
So what about the New Yorker cover? Sad that the point eluded the hyperventilating lefties so easily. And Obama’s GOT to stop scolding everyone. Jesus. He’s making McCain look downright lighthearted! The thrill is definitely gone.
Viva! Viva! Viva, Communisma! The proletariat have nothing to lose but their SUV’s! We will overthrow the fascist Republican regime that keeps our people down! We will round up the running-dogs O’Reilly, Coulter, Limbaugh, Savage and Hannity, and send them to “hope we can believe in” re-education camps! We will burn FOX News to the ground! Break out the vodka!
We march to a glorious future, comrades! Chairman Barack has shown us the way!
I like how Barack has magic feet that hover in the air!
[re=35775]Destonio[/re]: Uh, it’s bad because stupid people who believe the lies and distortions it purports to satirize will find those false beliefs reinforced, whilst those who understand it as satire will not change their minds at all?
Just spit-balling here.
The logo actually shows a reclining, moon guy drinking a beer… a foreign beer.
That’s the audacity of it all.

Best.
Political Discourse.
Ever.
[re=35758]magic titty[/re]: It’s the remix to ‘Ignition’/ comin’ straight out the kitchen… Rollin’ on twenty-fours
R.Kelly, from Chicago. Barack, from Chicago. R.Kelly likes to urinate on minors. Ergo, Barack likes to pee on ‘em, too?
I’m still reading through the 400+ comments on here and it’s all gold. Some favorites:
This pic should be shown everywhere 24/7. OBAMA IS A TERRORIST!!!!! AND SO IS HIS WIFE!!!! Line them both up against a wall and execute the traitors!!! These scumbags should NOT be allowed to live after what They and there kind did on 9/11. Muslim terrorist scums
Poor Poor Obama… PEOPLE, STOP DRINKING THE MEDIA KOOL-AIDE!!! The New Yorker Cover displays the DAMN TRUTH !!! GOOD FOR THEM FOR THE COURAGE AND THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH TO PRINT IT !! The terrorists are going to destroy AMERICA from the INSIDE OUT!!! GO AHEAD AND ELECT OBAMA, AND KISS YOUR ASS GOODBYE!!
It’s a Jewish conspiracy against him. Think about it. They fear he is not a lapdog to Israel, so since Jews control the media, they do their under-handed tactics to smear Barack in a sneaky way. Typical. But we’re waking up.
Barack is just mad because he can’t go public and deny being a Muslim. It is against the Muslim law to denounce – punishable by death!
the illuminati stikes again
dude is an islamist. dude’s wife is an islamist. dude hates america. dude’s wife hates america.
I think that last one was Hillary.
I’m honestly surprised there isn’t more outrage about the cartoon. I mean last time the prophet Mohammed appeared as cartoon people were rioting in the streets. Have we all finally grown up?
Sweet ride. Does it run on vodka?
[re=35818]JeffGoldblum[/re]: how come wonkette doesn’t have people posting comments like this:
I WAS NUMBER ONE!!!
look everyoneeeee
and this is the same grl
i have been waiting so long for this
Actually she was Number 7. Its amazing how easy it is to get some people excited. We’re all to jaded to get excited about that
To mirror McCain’s absurdities and “poke fun at him”, the New Yorker will have McCain, Scalia, Cheney and Rumsfeld all drunk and shooting up the headstones in Arlington Cemetary, while George Bush is giggling and taking a leak behind Pat Tillman’s grave.
The caption over a giggling McCain, as he points at the name Tillman on headstone says “Ha Ha, the stupid fuck actually believed I was a hero”.
Ha Ha, yeah that is a joke, isn’t it.
[re=35818]JeffGoldblum[/re]: Wow. Satire = too brainy for the average Perez Hilton reader. Whodathunkit?
[re=35818]JeffGoldblum[/re]: I wrote every one of those comments and believe that 100% BECAUSE BARACK OSAMA BIN-O’BARRY IS IN FACT AN IRISHMAN WORKING WITH THE I.R.A. AND INTENT ON DESTROYING THE VALUES OF HER MAJESTY AND ALL OF US HERE IN THE UNITED STATES OF CANADA…..
FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!
Meds make it better.
I’M a fucking Irishman and trust me, we could give a shit less about Canada or overfed overly pampered white men.
[re=35849]hazmaq[/re]: Man, what a visual. Maybe Tilman’s bony hand reaches out of the grave and grabs one of those oxygen thieves and, and, and….
Would someone PLEASE beat Tina Brown TO DEATH?
PLEASE??????????????????????????????????????
Or just shoot her a couple of times in the head with a nail gun?
Hm, change from collection plates. At least he doesn’t fear change.
[re=35865]hazmaq[/re]: YOU LIE WE ALL KNOW ABOUT YOUR SECRET PLAN TO TAKE OVER THE UNITED STATES OF CANADA AND DESTROY US ALL WITH YOUR HAMAS WAFFLES.
The fact that Tina Brown can apparently come back ten years after leaving the New Yorker to wreak this kind of havoc would suggest that she cannot be stopped.
What, no American Beauty arugula cover?
I’ve been watching this play out on the evening cable news and all I know is David Remnick is a major douche. Who would’ve thought anyone would misunderstand a cartoon that completely left out a punch line?
[re=35908]slavojzizek[/re]: It probably didn’t dawn on Remnick that 38% of the population thinks he’s Muslim. Oh wait, make that 45%.
[re=35887]shortsshortsshorts[/re]:
I’m, IRISH, dumbass, it’s my potato pancakes that kill.
[re=35890]shag[/re]: But one could TRY to stop her, Shag.
Say, with a .460 Weatherby Magnum?
At point-blank range?
[re=35887]shortsshortsshorts[/re]: we are equally painfully aware of your evil plot to bore us all to death with your witless repartee. I surrender!
[re=35818]JeffGoldblum[/re]: Two of my favorite PerezHilton comments:
Not all muslims are terrorists, but all terrorists are muslim !
This picture is fitting for Obama, he is definately in bed with the terrorists, they are probably the ones giving him the money to run. If this man wins, this is exactly what we are going to get.
[re=35799]RuperttheBear[/re]: why be afraid that the far right will use this cover to justify their stereotypes? They don’t need justification. With any luck, their gleeful “see, we TOLD you!” or slightly more refined “all humor has some basis in reality” talking points will backfire. At the same time, the cover predictably made certain elements on the left — including the Obama campaign itself, unfortunately — look humorless and overly defensive.
If the New Yorker’s readership and Team Hopey could have just laughed it off, it might have been a coup. By now, though, it may be a draw at best.
Oh please. This New York Magazine cover picture will be chump change when all the horny emails that Barack has been exchanging with Scarlett come to light. I heard from a VERY reliable source that someone hacked Scarlett’s blackberry and it will all be out on the table by the end of this week. Barack is such a horn dog.
[re=35945]donner_froh[/re]: That’s right baby! Obama should just let it all hang out like I do and admit he is Chicken Shi’ite.
Salon said pretty much what I was saying, but earlier and better.
Yes, of course I’m embarrassed on several fronts.
