New Yorker Puts Fist Bump on cover


It also has Michelle in an afro with an AK-47 strapped to her back, and Obama looking like Muslim cleric. Wow. See here. What's really amazing is the copy on why the New Yorker chose to have this on the cover:
The magazine explains at the start of its news release previewing the issue: “On the cover of the July 21, 2008, issue of the The New Yorker, in ‘The Politics of Fear,’ artist Barry Blitt satirizes the use of scare tactics and misinformation in the Presidential election to derail Barack Obama’s campaign.”
Who were the ad wizards who came up with this one? I'm sure Team Obama is thinking, "With friends like the New Yorker, who needs enemies?"
