So, the New Yorker mag has a cover depicting Barack & Michelle Obama in the White House, in which she's Angela Davis with a bandolier and rifle, he's an Indonesian Moslem, Osama Bin Ladin's portrait is on the wall, and the American flag is burning in the fireplace. As I'm the 23,452,998th person to point out, the satire is a little weak because it's not clear whether the Obamas are being mocked or if it's the people who circulate the Manchurian Candidate emails about them.

Whatever. It's a magazine cover. I was kinda annoyed by it at first, but now actually it makes me smile a little.

What I'm waiting for now is the New Yorker cover that does to St. John McCain what this cover does to St. Barack Obama. It would have to include McCain setting the aircraft carrier Forrestall on fire (& killing 134 sailors), making propaganda tapes for the North Vietnamese, deserting his first wife (disfigured in an accident) for a mega-wealthy heiress, and having senile dementia.
