  • Even if he were a Muslim, who cares? It's just religion. Stupid Americans refuse to accept anyone who isn't Just like them...

  • remember what rockerfellar said-thank you time magazine and all the other major media for keeping some of our secrets ,secrets that got us to now,rockerfellar said it,so he controls what goes out they are trying to stir Americans yp and cause shyt,they can't do that until they crash whats left of America,and it's around the corner it seems ? God Bless Americans ! the new falling world power,no jobs,folks protesting,wars moving,the china becoming the power now but they took africa and more NOW

  • I dont even like Obama and I think that this is cold! and People think he's a practicing Muslim!? Just cuz of some stupid cartoon!

  • Obama will go down in American History (by non-propagandized historians) as the worst president in the history of this country. So will his jackass Congress.

    There are only four reasons to defend Obama: You're a stupid liberal, you're feeding off the stupid liberals, you are black (yes, 90% of Black Americans support Obama), or you are an illegal alien.

  • I'll draw a pic of Obama's head exploding from "Global Warming"...And spam it on the internet.

  • Basically the Obama admin. don't want anyone to ever say anything negative about Obama, no matter how factual. Of course no one wants negative things said about them, but the level in which it's gotten to is absurd. When SNL made fun of Obama's lack of accomplishments, the Huffington Post acted like that was a horrible thing to say. "An overly harsh criticism." Good grief... it's SNL, and after how EVERYONE destroyed Bush they whine about that? Our media is liberal as hell.

  • to me he looks like an american black person nothin else i c

  • hahaha my mom believes most of those myths

  • Fuck the New Yorker... it's time for that piece of shit, politically biased, ego-driven rag to be flushed down the toilet.

    The New Yorker is just a secret club that only a special few get to join, after the insider clique has had another coven meeting.

    It's a new world, and there's no place for these fucking archaic, nepotism-ridden boat anchors who just want to drag everything down.

    Just like the Seattle PI and the rest of those fuckhead pubs, I hope the web destroys them all...

  • The average age of advertising & marketing in the USA is 13-15yrs old. That is the general age that advertising reaches out to & is designed to be understood by....

    It is no wonder that we even have a discussion about this cartoon. It is much too advanced to appeal to an intellectual level beyond which satire is difficult to comprehend.

    The New Yorker would be wise to look at Madison Avenue :-)

  • I fucking hate it when everytime you doubt Obama, people call you racist. I doubt him, but not for his color, because he's wasting a lot more money to save the economy.

  • so is he supposed just sit there and let it go to hell

  • If you're from shit hole new york.......you are a fuckin pencil neck!

  • FUCK NEWYORKER !!!

  • It's political satire for comedy. GET OVER IT! It somehow wasn't offensive to use satire on Bush or Clinton or any other president before Obama. Oh that's right he's black...

  • dumbass

  • It's unfortunately true. In fact try to find any satire or political humor on President Obama. You won't find very much.

  • I have a T-shirt that has that cover on it, I expect that it will be coming in handy.

    Did you notice the Al-Jizzeera logo on this vid? Right now, the America haters over there are doing everything they can to down-play Obama. Everything.

    Something for people like CVL to think about....

  • the new yorker sucks. new yorkers in general suck. they are fucking rude to everyone. new york is a great place but the people that live there suck. fuck you new yorkers.

  • why use the word nig... you can have your thoughts and thats ok but the n word should not be used. kids are on youtube too. thanks for your post but the country and the world are already in the toilet of an outhouse. it is sad but what can u and i can do to help the rest of the usa then world to get out the crapper. it can start with us. drop me a e-mail. thanks. david121170 peace

  • Cartoon created by right wing monkeys.

  • Slavery was a blessing in disguise!

    As Israel's bondage in Egypt shielding them from their Arab enemies until they were strong enough to defend themselves.

    So likewise the African American's bondage in America shielded them from their black enemies resulting in the ungrateful cures of today without the common sense to acknowledge their blessings for being part of the greatest country the world has ever seen called America.

  • Obama is a violent chimpanzee.

  • Of course the media is disgusted with the cartoon, they are in full support of Obama . Even if it was deemed inapropriate, our first amendment right allows us to publish images such as this.

  • I could readily see the offence in that; and what is up with Michelle's afro? The man is obviously not a Muslim, the man likes pork; and even if he were, isn't this supposed to be the union where eveyone's has a right to his or her own religious choice? People need to grow up.

  • What this cartoon succeeded in doing was exaggerate political claims.

    What it failed to do was appeal to the majority of readers. Even most Republicans think this is BS. So it can't really be called satire if the grand majority of your readers don't like it.

  • the editors of that magazine are Retarded

  • The best way to hide something sometimes is right out in the open. So this anti American rag is doing that.

  • First off: whether he is Muslim or Christian is irrelevant... religion has absolutely nothing to do with a persons a character or ability to lead. This is a major problem in US culture. And I say this, as a Christian myself. Second, anyone who believes theelection is "null and void" as the misinformed "hailthefourthreich" said below... is simply buying into propaganda. Which, in my opinion, is on of MANY problems this individual has, judging from the various comments he has made.

  • I think some people are way to stupid to not believe superstition... The world is getting dumber... soon we will be cavemen rediscovering fire again...

  • @ummhea superstition? The world IS getting dumber. That's not superstition

  • @ummhea yhea i tought it was an onion broadcast for 60 seconds long.

  • Everybody has the right to their own opinion.

  • What's wrong with the New Yorker is it assumes that most people are intelligent.

    The mag is making fun of the very news agencies that were calling Obama a muslim earlier and now are calling the New Yorker inappropriate.

    CNN, FOX, NBC, etc.. left or right.. they are all mindless little babies, screaming about every new sensational piece of trivia.

  • but he;s ur president whether u like or not,..if u don't like it leave this country u mothafuckerr.....

  • watch your fucking mouth. Obama is your president now, he decides whether you stay in the USA or not.

  • fuck hussein obama and his cunt wife

  • @skelefetus Since when does the President decide whether we stay or go? You're just as idiotic as the rest of these whack-job liberals! Now, that's a fact you can take to the bank - I'm sure you're in support of their NWO ideals as well.

  • @fred1671 i agree.... the patriot act is against the ppl and they support the government...ppl are slowly waking up but once they all do...it might be too late....

  • now i get it lol its sarcastic for a moment i tough they were going crazy

  • You know there are many people in this world who are considered genius. Out of those people there are some who are not insane too. They simply have a high IQ. Shouldn't having a High IQ be one of the requirements to run this country? We never seem to get a candidate like that to choose from. Perhaps because smart people know better then to get into politics.

  • that is true i have a 140 IQ wich is good but i have some friend with realy high IQ who woul get in politic easly but they have crazy idea like mccain wich is stupid because people are impress to see people with high IQ and want them president its stupid it realy should not be a requirement we should judge people on the idea they have not the IQ judging people on IQ test is what got america where it is the economy is fucked because of that

  • By fighting to put MCcain in office when he shares all of Bush's ideas. What a scary thought!

  • I am still so amazed at how Republicans not only believe everything they are told by their candidate, but actually quote him as if it were fact. The fact is the last 8 years were a nightmare and YOU voted for BUSH! Now you have the opportunity to redeem yourself for your bad decision and your still being an ignorant puppet. Its horrifying!

  • by doing what exactly?

  • By fighting to put McCain in office when he shares all of Bush's ideas. What a scary thought?

  • this is a true cover

  • bless u fuck islam

  • Simply saying it isn't so, does NOT make something less true. Fully documented, this guy has switched colors all his life to pursue whatever he wanted at the time. Are American voters so freaking BLIND that him as the single most dangerous man on the planet? The enemy from within? Islam has vowed to take over the world, and any attempt at being politically correct just so as not to offend thos living within our borders is just WRONG and a threat to America as we know it!!!!

  • Is Barack Obama a typical person of middle class than he want only the better for his compatriots?

    Yes or not. You decide.

  • Nice Video!

    I did one too about this whole debacle. I will send it to you. Tell me what you think.

    -TonyaTko

  • Yes & in the same way a gunshot wound is sexy Sazzy.

  • Shut the fuck up you ignorant cunt!

  • The real issue is why is it wrong to be Muslim? That shows that there is deep seeded prejudice against people who practice Islam in the U.S. which is wrong and I think that Obama should bring that up.

  • yeah that would be real good if he brought that up he would be finished instantly. to freshen your memory a little what religion do terroists usually claim? yeah thats it Islam it is not an issue of it being wrong but it has a definate history of violence and hate for other religions

  • and palin has the nerve to believe she is the only one being attacked unfairly.

  • It's the belief that Israel belongs to the Jews.

  • "If he's not a Muslim; he must be a Jew!" Is basically what you're saying.

  • media is gay its just a fucking cartoon get over it.

  • yes, and you're a Retarded asshole.

  • Avatarblackwolf is a fool.

  • See its easy to say stupid shit about people you don't know on you tube.

    But yea i was ofended when i saw the satire-I'm sure a lot of peopel didn't go far enough to realize that thats what it was (according to the red headed man, new yorker readers understood right away) But yea it just goes to reinforce those sterotypes, look @ the rediculous comments. A lot of ppl hoped bush got assisnated too, and he has had the most assination attempts on his life, but the Service is on the job.

  • he is a terrorist

  • Any Black woman with a Pollyanna(ish) Ohhh I love America, has brain damage or is delusional. WE ARE BLACK, therefore OUR experience in THIS country is not all starry eyed RED/WHITE/BLUE bullshit.Regardless of income, education, complexion, hair texture we EXPERIENCE institutionalized RACISM. That McCain dimwit ought to salivate for the stars and stripes afterall she is what American loves,blonde white woman w/blue eyes. McCain milks his prisoner of war victimization, still dumb as hell.

  • Obama...Osama...what's the difference?

  • Are the things depicted on that cover really lies??? Obama seems like one shady motherfucker to me. This country is going to hell fast anyway, so it doesn't really matter if he ends up causing more damage by becoming the next president.

  • this is the most hilarious picture i have ever seen and it reveals the truth of obama and what hes trying to do to america, it shall remain as my desktop background untill obama is assasainated

  • Hertzberg and the evil zionists of the New Yorker magazine drew that cartoon. It backfired. And now those evil zionists are paying the price. Hell is waiting for those evil zionists.

  • k3304 - I don't know if you know this but the cartoon is a satire created by people who support Obama not zionists. It is designed to expose and create dialoge about all the mis-truths about Obama so that we can finally put them in our past.

  • Agent, just check the masthead of the writers and editorialists in the New Yorker. It's a hornet's nest of liberal zionism.

  • All this stuff is easily verifiable. The easiest way to do this is to check Snopes. Snopes is widely recognized as credible and impartial. Unlike all these extreme far left and right sources people like to quote.

  • USAFFEKC10, sorry, but Snopes has errors regarding Obama. I have seen Snopes answer with quotes from Obama's books. Obama's self-made history is not credible.

  • "You're right, so what if Obama is fighting over oil...and so what if he uses our military for his own oil gains?"

    Keep in mind when I say this that I'm in the Air Force...I encourage Obama to use our military to keep the oil markets safe. ALL our livelihoods depend on this critical resource. Your statement is just plain silly. You saying "his" oil, as if he is hoarding it, or profits from it's sale. Completely ridiculous.

  • USAFFEKC10, p.s. McCain served his country in the military too... Obama, well, gee, he visited the Middle East during his college years... doing what? It's yet to come out. Maybe it was a pilgrimage that is common for Muslim youths...

  • You're a going a long-long way to make a VERY weak argument. Kind of like me saying, "you lived in the same state as Timothy Mcvey, therefore, you must be a domestic terrorist. Good luck with that one.

    I love the looming "hook" you throw out there too. McCain has a speckled past...I wouldn't throw rocks. But, I don't care about that either because I'm not dilusional like you.

  • USAFFEKC10, you are learning about the jihad firsthand in the Middle East, but there is more to know about how it is playing out in the rest of the world. Europe is a mess. It is estimated that 17,000 Middle Eastern terrorists illegally crossed our US borders in 2007 alone. There is an Islamic army within our country. Obama is involved, and many patriots are working to get the word out. A bad name? Many in the world see those who worship Obama as fools drawn like moths to the flame.

  • USAFFEKC10, you called me lost, idiot, freak, racist. How does that sound to you? It sounds to me like you are a typical Obama supporter. Wise up.

  • CynNichol - "you called me lost, idiot, freak, racist. How does that sound to you? It sounds to me like you are a typical Obama supporter. Wise up."

    Your comments make you sound similar to a muslim extremist.

  • USAFFEKC10, you say I sound like a muslim extremist? Sorry that one goes over my head, what do you mean?

  • "you say I sound like a muslim extremist?"

    I said you sound 'similar' to a muslim extremist. You don't say the same things but you use the same type of scare rhetoric. Such as, "it has yet to come out...wait and see...it is playing out in the world".

    Look, I'm not really excited about Obama but, he's not the "islamic terrorist" your distorted reality has lead you to believe. Truth be known, I actually think your motive here is racial and I would be willing to put my money on it if I could

  • CynNichol- "you are learning about the jihad firsthand in the Middle East, but there is more to know about how it is playing out in the rest of the world."

    I fly in the Air Force, I have a top secret clearance...I think I'm a little better informed then the authors of your stupid books.

  • USAFFEKC10, my sources have careers in intelligence, and are reliable. Books are one source. Hey, maybe one day you will write a book. Remember me when you write.

  • "my sources have careers in intelligence"

    Do you actually think for a second that the Clintons would not put your claims front and center in her campaign?? I know what you are saying here is false. I know it for a fact. And you know the Clintons and all the Hannity's, and Rush Limbaug's of the world would be trumpeting this. Face it. Your completely wrong. Obama is NOT muslim, and NOT a terrorist.

  • USAFFEKC10, like I said, Obama is Muslim on his father's side by birth. There is no record of a baptism or conversion. His birth certificate, when it is produced, will probably tell place of birth, father, mother, religion. That will be a start. At least two of his family members in Kenya have said he's Muslim... in news articles from 2006. Some of this has already been reported by mainstream media, but in Obama's arrogance, he thinks he can spin it away.

  • "His birth certificate, when it is produced, will probably tell place of birth, father, mother, religion."

    First of all, it is well documented that he was born in Honolulu, Hawaii to Barack Obama, Sr., a Black Kenyan of Nyangoma-Kogelo, Siaya District, Kenya, and Ann Dunham, a White American from Wichita, Kansas. Also, traditionally, religions have traditions. His muslim side of the family claims him because that is their tradition but that doesn't mean a thing. No conspiracy here, Sorry.

  • WinelsDivine, I accepted Obama's self-made history until it turned out that the HI birth certificate produced by his campaign is a fraud. As far as I'm concerned all he has said is suspect. Conspiracy theory says he was born in Kenya or Indonesia... I'm not saying this because I don't know, I wasn't there. There is nothing to do with conspiracy in what I've said. You should quit conjuring and arguing things you don't have a clue about.

  • "I accepted Obama's self-made history until it turned out that the HI birth certificate produced by his campaign is a fraud."

    Man, you're really not thinking are you. Take it from me, again keeping in mind that I'm in the Air Force and required to maintain top secret clearance to perform my flying duties, that anyone who holds the top level political seat he does, is THOROUGHLY examined by multiple government agencies. They know more about his life then you could imagine. TRUST ME on this!

  • CynNichol - "Many in the world see those who worship Obama as fools drawn like moths to the flame"

    Do you actually care what the rest of the world thinks about us?

  • USAFFEKC10, you brought up what the world thinks of us. I know a number of people who live overseas, and they say they have lost respect because we don't take care of our own (secure our borders); and that they are let down by the US's frenzy over Obama. Germany's crowds for Obama were the result of advertising for the rock groups that appeared and billing the event as free. That took a lot of money from somewhere... where would you guess it came from?

  • "I know a number of people who live overseas, and they say they have lost respect because we don't take care of our own (secure our borders)"

    I agree with you about securing the borders but I disagree with you that the world has lost respect for us over our obsession with Obama.

    Actually you brought up what the world thinks of us. But I will answer by saying people like you who continue to make these wacky 'conspiracy like' claims like the "Obama is a muslim" claim is embarassing.

  • USAFFEKC10, in 2006 Obama campaigned in Kenya for his radical Muslim cousin Raila Odinga (same Luo tribe) who ran for President of Kenya in 2007 against our ally the Kenya govt. Kenya filed a complaint against Obama with the US. Odinga lost, and the killings started until Odinga secured a co-governing post. Classic jihad. Obama was in contact with Odgina while this went on. Odinga has ties to al Qaeda. Odinga signed an agreement with radical Muslims to implement sharia law in Kenya if elected.

  • USAFFEKC10, further Obama campaigned for the Odingas (Raila and his father) in Kenya in 1992.

    He has been involved on the cutting edge of the African jihad for years. And like I said earlier, it is all about African oil and Islam. You can like it or not, and believe it or not. It is not conspiracy. I say wait and see because I sincerely believe that it will all come out. This isn't about race... it's about the global jihad... Islam's stalking horse... and denial.

  • "Obama campaigned for the Odingas (Raila and his father) in Kenya in 1992.

    He has been involved on the cutting edge of the African jihad for years."

    Absolutely FALSE. You can't believe every chain e-mail you read.

    You also keep saying that Obama is fighting over oil. He's not, but so what? We fight to make sure oil markets remain stable. I'll expect Obama to continue protecting stable oil markets.

  • WinelsDivine, my research is impeccable. You're right, so what if Obama is fighting over oil...and so what if he uses our military for his own oil gains? Odinga/Obama have Kenya in shambles... eg in today's news, students there are burning schools and it is attributed directly to Odinga/Obama's actions after the election. Not to sound naive, but if you consider Odinga/Obama collaborating with al Qaeda as a good way to keep oil markets stable, you better think again.

  • "Odinga/Obama have Kenya in shambles."

    Odinga/Obama do NOT have a connection and is completely FALSE. Once again, your making stuff up for an agenda which, I am willing to bet, is racial. I'm guessing you already know, WineIsDivine (my wife's screen name) is me.

  • He did not go to a Muslim school. In Indonesia he went to a school where most of the students were Muslim BUT the school was NOT a religious school. Most people in Indonesia are muslim. American public schools are full of predominately Christian students. That doesn't mean it is a Christian school or the school teaches Christianity. You guys just love to take a sliver of info and turn it into some conspiracy.

  • There is truth within satire. Obama did attend Islamic school, was raised Muslim, has been involved in jihad activities in Kenya for more than a decade. He won't produce a valid birth certificate, has pals who are terrorists, is part of corrupt IL politics, has been involved in at least one shady real estate deal, had for years an anti-white anti-American ex-Muslim pastor, is about African oil and Islam, etc etc Come on!! How can anyone vote for this man for President of the US? He is suspect.

  • Barack Obama is NOT a Muslim. He was NOT raised Muslim. He did NOT go to a Muslim School. He did NOT swear on a koran when he joined the Senate. His absentee father was raised in a Muslim home but is a confirmed atheist. Barack was raised in a Methodist/Baptist home but did not actively participat in the church.

  • USAFFEKC10, Obama by birth is Muslim on his father's side. His Kenyan family has confirmed this. His 'stepfather' in Indonesia was Muslim, and he studied the Koran in school from ages 2-10. I never said he swore on a Koran... you got that somewhere else. You obviously are having a hard time accepting the truth about Obama. It's called denial. The facts I listed below are only the tip of an iceberg of bad news about him. Wait and see.

  • Sorry, you're simply wrong. Check it all out on Snopes or Wikipedia, not some wack-job website.

    "He is muslim by birth", whatever. We are all africans by birth too, so what. Do you practice Kwanza? I didn't think so.

  • USAFFEKC10, don't believe everything you read on the net. My sources are reliable. To start, you might read the books American Jihad, and Willful Blindness, and a whole lot of international new articles from 2006-prior. Go to the library and look up books on Kenyan history, then check the index for the Odingas, Obama's uncle and cousin. You can find a lot when you move past Obama's lies and spin. Snopes considers what Obama wrote in his book as truth... not so. Like I said, wait and see.

  • Wow, you are lost. Jihad is real and it's discusting. I know first hand. In case you haven't figured it out from my screen name, I'm in the Air Force. I spend waaaay too much time fighting terrorist assholes in the middle east and I won't stop until the job is done. BUT! Obama has nothing to do with a frigin' Jihad. I don't give a crap about you book. I do give a crap about idiots like you giving this country a bad name though. Your a freak and I hate to say it, probably a racist too.

  • USAFFEKC10, thank you for your service to our country.

    The jihad is global. After the Afghan/Russian conflict, bin Laden formed al Qaeda. Then he was chased out of Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan (he returned later) and Sundan. In 1996 when he declared his jihad, he started in Kenya. Why do you think Africa has been such a mess the past 10 years? Al Qaeda makes deals with opposition leaders like Obama's cousin. Obama has been at the cutting edge of the African jihad for years. It's about oil & Islam.

  • Over 95% of the child molesters in USA are white men.If the Muslims are terrorist,than all the white americans are child molesters.

    You cant have both ways,you call a nation of 1.6 billion terrorist just because a group misused the religion,and I cant call all the white men are child molesters.You call the Muslims terrorist and I call Rupert Murdoch a child MOLESTER..

  • What a great representation of those two creeps.

  • distasteful and primitive, really sad the level USA reaches now days

  • I support Barack Obama~ He is going to make a great president and his wife a lovely first lady.

    This video just encouraged me to make another donation to his campaign fund.

  • kybutler, Chickenhawk Barack wants to shift our US troops from Iraq to Afgan. And I thought you liberals wanted a COMPLETE withdrawl !

  • spadino's strips new comics (on youtube)

  • Jesus said that "You will know them by their fruits."

    If Obama is a Christian then where are the fruits?

  • Obama....Cry me river

  • To me this cartoon speaks volumes!

    But if Barack Obama wants to be president, I highly suggest to him that he and his ultra-racist better half had better get a bit more thick-skinned than what they currently are!

    Political satire has been around for hundreds of years and will most certainly ALWAYS be here!

    You better stop carrying your feelings on your shoulder, little boy Barack! Getting your yellow feathers ruffled over a silly cartoon makes you look like a sissy crybaby wuss!

  • The McCain Campaign condemned it too, stupid.

  • No shit! Really, fekkot...faggot or whatever your name is!?

    He only did so to "save face" with the swing voters!

  • Wow, whoever disagrees with you magically becomes a sissy or faggot! You admit it as a blatant attempt to save face, but only gave the sissy/yellow/etc. labels to Obama's camp. My, aren't you a phony one.

  • Yea whatever, call it what you want!

    And when this big eared sissy obama gets in office we can all put our heads between our legs and kiss our asses goodbye!

  • watch?v=1Lgxv86lzLk

    Obama '08/'12

  • I think that satire and americans dont mix well. Lol

  • Only to those pin-headed Americans who can't "see the forest for the trees" my Canadian friend!

    As for the rest of us Americans who can see straight, political satire like this cartoon is hilarious!

  • Thats what I meant, Its just that its funnier when I generalize. Lol We all know there's smart people in the US but its easy to forget when we watch american news.

  • Awesome cartoon, describes exactly what they are.

  • I'm an Obama supporter and I think this whole thing is stupid.

    It's actually making me consider buying a copy. ;)

  • wat the hell happened2 seperate of chuch&state..americans r wat they say they r,GOD FEARIN CHIRISTIANS..so if they fear GOD wat do they feel about the DEVIL..hmmm..interesting.. they said there would never b a black baseball player, basketball.boxing,attorney,gov­enors,mayors,golf pro,ect, but a Presedent..Obama08

  • das ist meinungsfreiheit;)

  • you stupid idiots don't buy the zionist rag.

  • The cartoon shows more of a truth, if one read obama's wife's thesis, one can deduce a clear sense of intense racism and hatred for white people, or "the whitey" as it refers to them. A look into obama's past also reveals some shady stuff, such as smoking crack cocaine.... seriously, read his book! Also search the internet for 50 lies by obama, These concrete facts paint a clear picture of a liar that is fooling Americans. However he is a good public speaker.... Yet so was Adolph Hitler.

  • "New Yorker" = zionist bullshit propaganda

  • Damn, American can be so dumb sometimes. Sighs! Don't let the world down America, vote this man in

  • those damn jews those fuckers all they want is money obama is better then mccain that fucker those damn replicaN JEWS FUCK JEWS HAIL HITLAR GO DEMICATS

  • i hope your catholic

  • The thing that really disturbs me is why anybody should care IF he was a Muslim, or a Scientologies, or a freakin' sun worshiper. It's not illegal to be Muslim. We don't live in a theocracy yet, as much as the right-wing wackos would like to emulate the Taliban. It's none of our freakin' business what religion he is, that's between him and his god (God, Sun, Xenu, spaghetti monster, whatever).

  • I couldn't agree with you more. Religion needs to be out of politics, and no one should care as to what religion a politician is.

  • Because Americans are such hypocrites. I mean, we're a Christian nation who unconditionally supports a country that doesn't share our own religious values.

  • Last i remember Malcom X was a muslim and look what he did for america...he freed how many millions of people from being slaves...obama being a muslim is a plus...islam is a peacfull religon and terriorst are not muslims because islam does not allow or terrorism.... the only thing american's should be worried about is how much the next president is going to suck up to the jews and isreal...i guess they are considering isreal apart of america now a days...wake up america...isreal is taking over..

  • aceasad, muslims are so peaceful, they gunned down Malcolm X. How is islam a peaceful religion ? That's a lie. Islam wants to kill all infidels and non-believers.

  • Malcolm X was not gunned down by them k3304. No one has figured out why he was killed. Please go read for yourself rather than the propaganda. Christianity and judaism would have died early if people judged them on how violent some of their followers are.

  • my45, really ? Louis Farrakhan admits that black islamists killed Malcolm X. It's on Tube You. He's interviewed by Mike Wallace

  • Yeah there are enough sources that have him denying it as well. Point are the alleged links to FBI that the guy that shot him was found to have.

  • only a muslims are offended by cartoons ... c'mon Barry, just admit it

  • Shrewd move by the McBain camp, Osamabama is forced to react to the agenda that MCbain has set. Hopefuly it will get deep down and very very dirty. Never underestimate the cowardice of a politician

  • MadAsHell, they were liberal NY jews who drew that cartoon. Very evil people.

  • That is funny shit!!!

  • As funny or not as the cover is, the real sickness in our society is in the seriousness that people take in not seeing the cover in it's statical context. Especially when one considers real news and information that doesn't get covered as we waste time and energy over a questionable joke.

  • It offended me... tasteless for sure.

  • This cover is incredably offensive, and so is this video.....so what even if he is a practicing muslim, do people have to be christain so they can run for president now?! Being a muslim DOES NOT MEAN HE IS A TERRORIST!!!!

  • It's clearly disgusting political tactics to turn away Obama voters similiar to the ridiculous "swift boats for truth" tactics back in '04 Bush campaign against John Kerry. Put aside all the religion talk and speak on the facts here. You are an idiot if you can't see this is the work of the McCain campaign. Who really reads New Yorker magazine?

  • dfwmarine, that is simply a lie. That cartoon was drawn by marxist liberal NY jews

    I feel rage towards those NY liberal jews which the cartoon backfired on those vicious and racist zionists

  • Were you weraing your "brown shirt" when you responded?

  • This was a harmless, little cartoon. I really don't see why this caused such an uproar. By the way, we all know that Barack Milhouse Obama was raised a Muslim. What's so wrong with admitting that? Why is Barack ashamed to admit that??????

  • Good point. The fact that Obama was so offended raises a red flag for me. Do we want a President that is this thin-skinned? I suppose that the trend contines....and that trend being only radical MUSLIMS get offended at crazy cartoons.

  • If someone made a cartoon showing you molesting 12 year olds wouldn't you be offended?

  • Personally offended yes, politically no.

  • filthy politics

  • The New Yorker should know that it should not satirize African Americans. In this age of affirmative action legislation, we need to avoid hurting the sensitivities of blacks...because they are so weak and oppressed. As a matter of fact, it is our duty to give Obama, and all of the black community, free tuition, a subsidized family, and most importantly...AN UNDESERVED JOB!!!

  • CBERASTUS: You are silly. Nobody bought race into this but you. You think Obama got free tuition?That just shows how misinformed you are.Unlike many whites who attended Havard, Obama didn't have a free ride, he actually had to pay for his own tuition.And he excelled in the ivy league school,gaining a postion on Havard Law review and he graduated magna cumme laude.Obama deserves job more than Bush's retarded ass.I'd rather have a havard grad as president over a cowboy any day.

    *brushes dirt off*

  • mrbronze013 -

    Did my satirical words offend you?

  • LOL, OH I get it.

    *represents team satire*

  • Its America that tells Obama that he is black, Rather then a son of mixed heritage.

    This was a satire of fox news propaganda.

  • Actually, the real honest truth is that Obama is Gilbert Gottfried in disguise. That is the next big thing for the National Enquirer to expose, but you can say you read it here first. Ever notice how the 2 of them are never in the same room at the same exact time? Oh, the horror! The truth is coming out soon.

  • Obama is really the Karl Marx reincarnated. He shares the same socialist's belief and he was sent back in order to start communist revolution in America. Think about it, he wan't to re-distribute wealth and create a welfare state--USSA (united socialist states of america).

    Also he's a muslim and swears allegiance to Usama Bin Laden.

    representing team satire

  • hmm, hope thats satire

  • even if he was a Marxist or a socialist or a muslim, so what? nothing wrong with any.

  • I agree.I was just showing how stupid the anti-obama cartoon was.I think everyone should just laugh at it and don't take it serious.Of course there are thick-headed americans who are going to see cartoon and automatically assume it to be true.One thing this election has exposed is how deeply entrenched xenophobia,racism,and religious intolerance is in society. I hope Obama wins just so I can see the look on all these idiots faces. Hopefully they move out of country in disgust.

    *crosses fingers*

  • I have noticed! spooky...

  • The average American Joe will not understand the humor at all. The average American is very misinformed and has no knowledge of the world outside a 5 mile radius. Americans are not dumb, but most are not too bright. Often the university "educated" Americans be real jugheads, even within their own field of study. It is a stupid piece of art that really should not have been on the cover of a popular magazine. Many Americans will think it is an accurate depiction of Obama and his wife.

  • Its all propaganda. This satire is used to try to scare off voters. Why isn't there a Mccain cartoon with him in a KKK outfit patrolling the borders? as satire its all fair game.

  • I am an Israeli and I support obama I wish he would be president. and I am glad the the Arab and Muslim in world like him better. Israel have every right to fight for its country with the Arabs sometimes. but America don't. and when America fights in the mid east that make people forget who is right.

  • lmfao...the survey showed how many Americans are completely out of the loop which isnt surprising..

    fact is Obama will steamroll over McBush the turd ummm I mean third unless now there is an "incident" before election day..

    stay tuned..heh heh
