  • i find it funny people are actually angry by the cover. it's illustrating the rumors to show how ridiculous they really are.

  • I know this is a bit late, but all the elements of this cover have an element of truth or if wouldn't have been such a popular cover.

    What a dangerous guy to be in the oval office. And his wife! Don't get me started.

  • And his wife! Don't get me started.

    you are right on

    what a bunch of bs her speech was at the dnc

    trying to soften her image up

    this is a woman filled with hate you can see it in her face time & time again

    she has been so used to being the way she is that it is very difficult for her to change so as to be more appealing to certain voters

    they are trying real hard but not fooling many

  • "half breed?" my god, you make him sound like an animal. what a racist bigoted prick you must be.

  • I read your comments and wonder if you even know what you are attempting to say

  • When Obama appeared in Germany in front of what 250,000? Prior to him making his appearance there was a free concert with Germany's #1 rock band, & rap group. So were they there to see Obama or attend a free concert?

    He did the same thing in the U.S.

  • Okay, I must post to inform all: I just now got through with being confronted by a colleague who says that she was told that I was overheard making 'racist comments' about Barack Obama- all because I was overheard telling a friend that I thought that the New yorker was great.

    It was an African American female who overheard everything, and immediately put a racist twist on it.

    I am a Republican; Those with no knowledge of politics could be very dangerous in their ignorance if he is elected.

  • african americans always put a racist twist on things. I was at work not even talking about this cover and siad I was a Mccain supporter and immidiately this African american I work with started saying "your not voting for him because he is black" No I am not voting for him because i dont trust him.

  • yobud One could ask,"And why don't you trust him?" Is it his blackness? Maybe you're not a racist, but subconciously you could be thinking,"He's not one of us. He has a funny name. His church was too black, etc." I don't know the answer, so I won't accuse you of anything.

  • why would i vote 4 a man who is backed by the same orporations and countries that are involved n the exploitation of africa?barak is here 2 progress assimilation, assimilation is the final phase n conquest, the whole idea of conquest is to absorb the other race.

  • trusting barak obama is like fatal attraction. this guys purpose is to hide the dismantling of the black community

  • wheatbread, Dismantling of the black community? Corporations that exploit Africa? I have no idea what you're talking about. At least your beef with Obama is not the same old, "He's a muslim! He's anti-white!", crap that I keep hearing.

     By the way, I like the martial arts footage on your profile. Cool stuff.

  • im black and of course u dont know, sad but race is fllowing this fatal attraction known as barak obama

  • lol poor America you guys are really fucking bored all though you have world power.what could be the problem oh yes finding the perfect president.if its not one thing then its the other.

  • This cover pretty much says it all maybe if Che Guevara were still alive he could be Obama's Attorney General Because we all know that Obama is a socialist and as far as I am concerned America's #1 threat to national security. WAKE UP AMERICA!!!!

  • obama is the niggest threat to the black community. obama is fucking deception if ive ever seen it

  • wheatbread I'm looking at my keyboard and I notice that the "B" and the "N" are right next to each other. I don't know if you mad a typo or if you were being coy. But your comment:

    obama is the niggest threat to the black community...." niggest?

  • obama is the biggest threat, obama was an image decision. pure deception, simply put. obama is a disguise nothing more.

  • This is the first day I have read any comments to the videos and I wonder where your postings originate, outerspace>

  • i guess i takes a certain level of understanding

  • why the fuck would a whm have african amrtial arts on his page? u r an idiot. im black dumbass, yea i know bm cant be intelligent or u dont expect bm to be intelligent

  • wheatbread I don't understand text message lingo. Could you please..you know...spell your words out so us older folks can understand what you're saying?

  • well i suggst u get wit da times bcuzz our society ncludn da language we use is bcomng more compaq. remember old woman big things come in small packages

  • I am 70 and totally agree

  • ur comment stinks of avoidance, adults that cant handle being challenged are funny

  • wheatbread No avoidance here. I really don't understand all these abbreviations you kids use. I'm sure you had a point in your original statement. I'm trying my best to decipher what you're trying to tell me. You don't like Obama. Ok, I get that. Was there something else?

  • whatver,u think that because ima 'kid' that u can discount my argumenment. in actuality that is a kids way of handling the situation. well anyway this kiddy language that we speak is gonna be responsible 4 shaping the future of language n our society. make ur little sarcastic comments all u want a,avoid the fact tha barak is a disguise and it angers u. some people only have faith and they get pangry when someone attacks what they beleive in .

  • wheatbread, Maybe I am old. Because I'm clueless on what you're telling me. I know that you think I'm being sarcastic. And normally you would be right. But I can't be sarcastic to a comment I don't understand. Anyways...I'm kind of suprised that a black person would hate Obama like you do. Do you talk and act white? Did you grow up in a white neighborhood? I'm just asking.

  • well all i can say is that black people are in the process of being conquered. whats going on right now is so complex, a youtube paragraph wouldnt do it justice.i ve come 2 the realization that black people still dont understand the game

  • No they aren't. Only the H, J and M are nest to the N.

  • They made Michelle look like a 70s radical.

  • HA HA HA. what a load of complete and utter bollocks. The American media is totally unobjective, censorised and sensationalistic. Want to watch real news, watch bbc24.

  • radical islam has just as much to do with muslims as the KKK has to do with christians.

    THEY DO NOT GO HAND IN HAND.

  • Best analogy regarding religion and culture I've read this year. thumbs up!

  • How could this sway you - I don't understand - a horrible cover - but it is scary that thinkgs like this could change someone's vote - why not just read the real news, listen to what the candidates are saying - people falling for this is how this country got in the mess we are in now.

  • its just a magazine cover get over it already

  • please this cover was designed to discourage the militant black mind and discourage identifying with being black

  • You have to remember there was a nation of Islam satire and a burning American flag thrown into that cover, too.

    Just what does being Muslim or militant have to do with me? I wear my afro because that's what my hair looks like - NOT because I'm protesting against "Whitey".

    As far as I'm concerned, discouragement or not, that New Yorker cover was typical of the cowardly, blustering, hyprocritical "All-American" culture we've all become familiar with, that shames the name of Christ.

  • u guess udidnt understand what i said

  • read what i wrote again and see if u comprehended it wrong

  • I've had to go thru and clean up some of the racist slurs being uttered on this page. Keep it civil or get blocked.

    Thanks!

  • Bcc there is nothing wrong with arabs, ralph nader is a arab, he's a good man, there is something wrong radical islam not arabs, radical islam is what has corrupted arabs, nader is catholic.

  • The most interesting thing that could come out of this fiasco, would be how the publication affects the New Yorker's subscription rate over the next few months.

  • yes

  • lol this is why I don't watch cable TV. jesus, these guys commentary.. is just sooooo lame.

  • You realize of course that the New Yorker magazine endorses Obama? It was satire. It may have backfired but that mag loves Obama.

  • I was voting for Obama until I found this gem. I don't have much time for politics because I work long hours, even weekends but thank god I found this gem.

  • I saw two teens doing this "terrorist fist jab" in the subway today. I proceded to get off the waggon on the next stop. My heart was pounding, they looked like -the kind- who carry bombs in their back packs!

  • A re-post: BHMO FOOLED AMERICA BECAUSE HE IS DARK.

    HE IS NOT A TRUE BLACK AMERICAN ALL HIS ANCESTORS EXCEPT A GREAT GREAT GRAMA WERE AFRICAN ARABS, WHO traded in slaves.! HIS FATHER'S NAME was BARACK HUSSEIN MUHAMMED

    OBAMA! Candidate IS "the Second" THAT MEAN HE ALSO HAS

    ALL FOUR muslim NAMES ! CAN YOU GET IT !

    SEARCH:

    Obama's Fake Birth Certificate

    OBAMA IS AN ARAB

    NONE IN HIS FAMILY SUFFER SLAVERY, EVER !

    NO REASON FOR "whitey guilt"

  • ....I was gonna vote for obama till i saw this photo....now, no way...

  • OMG!

    That cover is so misleading. First of all, Obama is NOT Muslim. Second of all, even if he was Muslim, he WOULD NOT be wearing a turban. Muslims are NOT required to wear turbans as a part of their religion. Sikhs are the only people required to wear turbans due to religious requirement.

  • the cover is misleading is because it is trying to be. it is misleading on purpose, its a sarcastic, cynical satire, making fun of people who think that that is the truth and that the magazine in portraying the real truth. the cover is titled, "The Politics of Fear"

  • I love the front cover. I am not a total idiot like some people who actually believe this stuff, I am just a big supporter of satire.

  • THANKS NEW YOUKER ! Search: 3 Is Obama running to be President or Dictator Obama is an Arab Obama - Gaffe Mania Re-post freely GOOGLE: OBAMA'S MUSLIM CHILDHOOD HIS FATHER'S NAME was BARACK HUSSEIN MOHAMMED OBAMA! Barack IS "the Second" THAT MEAN HE ALSO HAS ALL FOUR muslim NAMES ! are we stupid or what
  • lukatmee:People like you are who the magaizine is making fun of. What's really funny is that you took the bait and is taking the cartoon literally. I've read both books and didn't see not one thing that would support your claim that Obama's "committment to muslim lifestyle". Obama is no muslim and all of this fuss about him being one is assinine and not based in reality. I find the whole thing hilarious.

    Obama got you people shook. People fear what they don't understand.

  • Attention all people with brains, DO NOT listen to all this B.S. from these fear peddlers. They are FRIGHTHEN little people who are trying to impose their FEAR on someone else. You see, it makes them feel better about themselves if that know that they are not alone in their fear. Usually bigots and racist, they are THE WORST of America. President Obama will hopefully start a mental health program for these "challeged" people and get them the help they so badly need. For now ignore them.

  • Wow how plain can it get?

  • Stupid INFIDEL! Islamic law says if your father is a Muslim the child will be a Muslim, Obama Sr. is Muslim! One cannot change religion from a Muslim, the penalty is death. Brother Hussein Obama is MUSLIM!!!!

    President Obama please release our fellow Muslim Khalid Sheikh Mohammed who is held by the American infidels in a US jail in Cuba. 911 happened a long time ago, those infidels should get over it! May Allah be with you brother Obama. Muslims Rule!

  • .......who took that photo of the obama's in their living room???....

  • I think Islam has to be eradicated globally. That's the only way to get rid of Islamic terrorism. It'll come one day. It just takes killing a ton of people in the US or a nuke going off here. With the communist Obama, that will happen. Wait until the Americans get really pissed and start throwing nukes in Pakistan, Iran and all those kings and terrorist supporters fuckers. Massive rehabilitation afterwards, Islam outlawed. You haven't seen the worst of Americans yet. The giant is asleep.

  • I was voting for Obama until I saw this photo.

  • Jmwd. That is just what racist media types like the New Yorker magazine want you to do. Don't believe the hype.

  • wtf, are you serious? wow, if your not going to vote for him because of this, than you where never a real obama supporter.

  • And your point is??? I could careless where you're from. And before you start commenting on other countries, how about looking at your own. There is no more england. Damn muslims have destroyed your country. We're not going to let it happen here.

  • Only a liberal radical Muslim would be offended by the New Yorker cover.

    Obama is offended because he IS a liberal radical Muslim. Put down your crack pipes & get a clue.

  • Janiniecita: So is McCAin a liberal radical muslim too? He too condemned the cartoon.

    I find it hard to believe that you believe that he is a radical muslim. You just use that as an excuse to hate on Obama. Why don't you tell the real reason why you don't like him? All the accusations that Obama is a muslim have no basis in reality.

    I don't like mccain, but you don't hear me lying and calling him a nazi or something.

    You people are pathetic.

  • Hey Mr. Bronze, I just wrote you the longest most thoughtful replay and I can't send it because we're not friends. Will you put me on your list so I can send it? It's not racist bullshit, I PROMISE; even though you did call me pathetic.

  • I meant R-E-P-L-Y. Oops!

  • I think you just mad that Obama saw her first and married her. With such stong emotions in your words, I think it's safe to say that you are truely IN LOVE with Michelle Obama and just can't stand anyone else having her. Ah, my redneck "friend" it's gonna be alright!

  • Schwarznasen, I have a college degree and working on my masters. I know I am not a slave and slavery no longer exists. I used slavery as an example, you idiot, to address a point about Obama's ethnicity. Blacks are considered Black and treated as second class no matter if they had one or two Black parents. Since you're upset about this topic, slavery has stripped Blacks of their culture and has affected how the nation is today. YOU grow a brain so you can get my point!

  • This type of warped thinking has never been challenged and allowed to flourish into what is the national black American identity. You mentioned that slavery stripped blacks of their culture. To which culture are you referring? Have you witnessed the perpetual social, political, cultural, and economic disaster that is past and present Africa? Do the names Jomo Kenyatta, Patrice Lumumba, Idi Amin, Robert Mugabe and a whole legion of corrupt dictatorial and oppressive pricks ring a bell? Twit.

  • Schwarznasen, when did Africa get like that...before or after the Arabs started the slave trade?

  • What does it matter? Perhaps you should express your slavery grievances to the Emir of Kuwait, or perhaps a Saudi Prince. Either way, such grievances are merely an excuse for failure and lack of initiative.

  • PS - As far as your college degrees are concerned, I have some suggestions. First, show up to class on time, try not to fall asleep, take notes, do your reading and homework, and try some bonafide academic courses for a change. Courses in Black Studies, Urban Sociology, and others which offer little more than the promulgation of collective black victimhood at the hands of rich white devils may qualify you for a job at 7-11 or as head usher. Face it, you are only pissed off at yourself.

  • You don't know me or what my major is. Once again, you are stereotyping. I'm pissed off at myself? The truth hurts, huh? Whenever Blacks state facts, there are SOME Whites who call Blacks hateful or whiners. You are right about African dictators. However, ask yourself, how many nations, including African nations, the United States, and nations in the Carribean/South America, have been colonized by Europeans or used slavery at the expense of non-Whites? I'm done. Find peace within yourself.

  • First of all, Schwarznasen, I have a college degree and working on my masters. I know I am not a slave and slavery no longer exists. I used slavery as an example, you idiot, to address a point about whether Obama's ethnicity. Blacks are considered black and treated as second class no matter if they had one or two black parents. Since you're upset about this topic, slavery has stripped Blacks of their culture and has affected how the nation is today. YOU grow a brain so you can get my point!

  • You prove my point entirely. Despite your apparent academic accomplishments, you still harbor hatred against white Americans for acts committed by people long since dead against people long since dead. What the fuck do the grievances of the dead have to do with you and anyone else? Since the sufferers were black and you are black then you are the proxy for some type of restitution? Since slaveholders were white henceforth all whites are evil by proxy and must now suffer to your satisfaction?

  • The real funny thing about all this is that its a liberal magazine

  • ....obama is the devil...

  • Si el diablo

  • The Washington Times

    washingtontimes(dot)com/news/2­008/apr/01/obamas-church-found­ed-on-radical-creed/

    The church where Sen. Barack Obama has worshipped for two decades publicly declares that its ministry is founded on a 1960s book that espouses "the destruction of the white enemy."

    Trinity United Church of Christ's Web site says its teachings are based on the black liberation theology of James H. Cone and his 1969 book "Black Theology and Black Power."

  • Mr. Cone, a professor at the Union Theological Seminary in New York, added that "black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy."

    If you are a white person and are still determined to vote for Obama...then, like a doctor would tell a terminally ill patient...so do I tell you..."You better get your get your things in order, you don't have much time left." It can't be put any clearer than this.

  • americans are too stupid to know it is satire

  • Remember during the civil rights marches in the 60's when those insidiously evil white racists lined the streets throwing shit and shouting out slurs at the black marchers? Well, those people and their kids are still alive today and it burns them inside to see a non "pure white" man get into the White house. Boy are they yelling now: "He's muslim!" "He's a terrorist!", "His wife hates America!" It's all just racist resistance again. And to all of them I say this. "Bow down bitches...bow down"

  • This is NOT a satire. What this is, is insidious scaremongering directed at white Americans who cannot construe what is literal and what is supposedly satire. Either way, to have Barack and his wife looking like a muslim fundamentalist and a "black power" revolutionary are visual tools designed to play on the minds of pockets of white America that harbour misgivings towards voting Barack Obama in as the next president.

  • It is what it is. The New Yorker is calling it like they see it. And how many Americans see it.

  • @Boricua670 what kind of excuse for a riposte is that? If you're going to respond to me, address the issues I've raised, don't respond to me with glib words devoid of substance. As for your "how many Americans see it" comment, I hope you're not inferring that because I'm an English I can't have an opinion on this matter, as you'd be wrong as I can and I do have an opinion, and to re-iterate, this is NOT a satire, it's incendiary scaremongering directed at the ignorant pockets of white America.

  • uhm it is COMPLETELY a satire, do you know what the title of the cover is? its "the politics of fear" it makes fun of people who actually beliece the dumb stuff they hear. in that issue of the New Yorker (and i would know because i subscribe) there was a really long article about obama, and how he got started, and his roots in chicago and everything. it is very much in support of him.

  • It is a satire.

    And I made a satire of the satire.

    Just imagine how many hillbillies are masturbating over this, thinking that its real,

    Thats gotta be funny in itself!

  • everyone is saying this cartoon is a spoof or satire when it is in fact how all white Americans view Barrak Hussein

  • Are these people idiots?

  • yes...

  • This just in....lukatmee now hates himself...He just discovered that his shadow is BLACK!!!!!

  • It is now official, YOU are the dumbest person ever to post on Utube. How did You get a computer? Man, they gotta change the rules and sell to people with a brain in their heads and NOT fear mongering stupid trash like you. Buddy, you're a disgrace to your race. Go to school dropout and learn something AND THEN POST. Screw 100 years, the time is NOW you KKK pig. Why don't you and the rest of your bigot buddies leave earth NOW. America DOES NOT want you here you racist dirtbag. GET OUT NOW!

  • it isnt what you say when you know cameras are rolling,it is how you act when you dont know they are.that goes for mr ilbomya too.

  • my shell doesnt love america or we would have known it all along.

  • You're an idiot. It's funny. Bi-racial people during slavery times were slaves. Why? Because ONE of the parents were Black. Massa didn't need both parents to be Black to shackle us. Many Bi-racial persons came about through bigots like you who raped our women, yet got mad after the Civl War, if we looked in the direction of a White woman. You called Obama a White man? If he was 100%White, you would not be writing this stupid ass blog and you would not insult Obama by calling him Osama.

  • Mistuhbig

    were there any white women raped by blacks during civil war times?

  • You have some incredibly twisted (but commonplace) views of white Americans, and this is never, ever going to change. Whining, bitching, moaning, threatening, and just complaining about past events that can never be redressed is the foundation of black American culture. That alone is the mucilage that binds it together. Enough is enough. Whitey is slowly but surely awakening to the big bullshit scam that has been perpetrated on it for over a century. Just go to school and grow a fucking brain.

  • PS - White women? Are you for fucking real? Listen dipshit, you can hook up with any paleface twat you like. Your comments speak volumes more about YOUR hateful prejudices, particularly the fact that you equate sex and revenge. A typical sick prick.

  • stupid .. stupid .. stupid .. americans

    that obama wins is just a wishful thinking of us europeans .. because how we know you guys over there in the us you will be again so smart and vote not for the good :P but hey what should the world except from you .. finally you voted for bush (AGAIN!!) ..

  • sternenxhimmel

    17? That may explain your ignorance

    Here's some free advice, don't try & tell us over here in the U.S. how we think or what we do. Worry about Europe, things are not so great over there either.

  • 4 words: freedom of the press

  • .....obama is the devil....

  • my friends and I tfj every day!!!!!! 

    OBAMA 08

  • Michelle is now chumming up to white women on the view saying I love my country over and over. Puleeze. People who really love America don't have to keep saying it. We never heard a clip of you saying you loved America before Barack started running for office.

  • >> MY THOUGHTS. They didn't get the idea for this cartoon depicting Obama and Michelle as far left hater radicals from outer space. Obama's backround and his far left racist associates painted him into this picture, not the cartoonist. People have a right to their opinion. I don't trust Obama, he lied, is a phoney, was ashamed to wear a flag pin and disgraced the Anthem.

  • Johnpoco, For your information, Michelle Obama only expressed that she loved her country because she was asked about it. She did not go around repeating it. By the way, you contradicted yourself by saying that one does not have to keep saying they love America but you knock Obama for not showing his love of America by not wearing a flag pin. I see with you, the Obamas are damned if they do, damned if they don't. Like some in the media, you are not ready for an African-American president.

  • Eluap is right, these two dumdums are talking about this drawing as though it is a photograph. They spent too much time in the sun and it must have damaged their ability to think rationally. Either that, or someone dropped them on their heads when they were born. But they are well qualified for Fux Gnus.

  • Can right-wing born-again christian commentators get any more retarded than these two?

  • Actually, the Krispy Kreme Donut worker hat on Obama PROVES once and for all, that he is a Krispy Kreme Donut addict. Once Obama is elected, he will put an end to the Krispy Kreme Donut shops that are closing down unfairly around the country. He alone will save America! (Seriously, I really think the USA and the world needs his leadership - no joke there.)

    Mrs. Obama's retro hairstyle shows that she is a fan of the early Jackson's and their classic but fun music.

  • i just fell in love with you for this comment

  • Thanks! :)

  • Now here's the real truth.

    +The secret spelling bee fist jab that Obama did with his wife accurately shows they are closet spelling bee fanatics. So, to all the bullies who push around the spelling bee book worms, watch out. When Obama gets elected, be prepared with your dictionaries and challenge word spelling lists or get left behind. I hope Fox News won't expose their secret spelling bee addictions.

  • hahahaha. funny. :)

  • 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.

  • 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 can 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.

  • another example of the liberal jewish NY media pandering to the blacks, only it backfired

    the marxist NY liberal jews are vicious and racist. Let's feel rage and condemn those no good zionists

  • If Maccain is elected I'm moving to a country that is Truly free.

  • Vote for him so we can pay more tax for welfare and food stamps. We should word harder to pay tax for lazy people,myself will not have to work because a great president will take care of that issue. Vote for Obama, vote for WELFARE & FOODSTAMPS. VOTE for LAZINESS. VIVA abortion president.VIVA president of WELFARE 7 FOOD STAMPS. VOTE NOW

  • obama's lips are purple

  • Be careful brother, Michelle has a AK-47 she may send any ones to heaven. i'm scare of them because of their bomb and Ak-47.

  • If Obama wins then I hope that he is a Muslim and all hell breaks lose. The Holy War starts, people killing people, people starving, women abused by their men. I bet all the dam foriegners will leave this country like a bunch of whimps, they will not stay and help us fight. An Islamic president will force Sharia Law on us and guess what the Christians will fight back. A vote for Obama is a vote for the Holy War.

  • your Channel speak For it Self

    Do You Think All Muslim abusing Women........

    I am Sorry Did You Watch TV Lately.......

    Opera For Example there is many Episode talking about men Abusing Wemen and guess What There Are Not Muslim..........

    Iam not Saying that Muslims not abusing women

    You are Responsible for your life and yuor  action .

    p.s. : Sorry my English it is not Quite good But still..... it works.

  • Are you ready for the Holy War? A vote for Obama, is a vote for the Holy War. May God help the poor and disobedient, they will suffer the most.

    I'm ready to start manufacturing Muslim wear for all the dumb bitches who are voting for Obama. May they get severely abused!

    I've been a good woman, married for over 36 years so giving in to Islam is no big deal. I'll wear the Muslim wear and laugh as I see women get abused because they will want to continue with their evil ways.

  • you wanna talk satire. lets talk satire. how 'bout a cover that shows a feeble McGeezer in a wheelchair. plaid flannel blanket tucked in. pushed by his plastic looking barbie-doll wife. in the background a scowling portrait of barry goldwater.

  • Of course it's satire, it's very BAD ill conceived satire at best however. The New Yorker knows full well the limited intellect of the American electorate and their penchant for reading only the bold print, and yet wrecklessly posted such an outrageous cover.

    It's just BAD journalism.

  • whats vicious and racist are those liberal NY jewish media types who drew this cartoon !! Damn those no good zionists !!

  • You liberals sure hate the truth!!

  • The artist of this illustration tactically carries out the agenda of the liberal establishment by openly conjuring up the fears held by the less analytical segments that happen to comprise a substantial portion of the right wing. This image is designed to deflect all legitimate criticism of Obama and place that criticism into a catagory that can be labeled as illegitimate. Arguments such as: his embracing of socialist domestic policies; and his willingness to engage in talks with Ahmadinejad.

  • this was designed to discourage the militant mind of the bm thats all

  • i agree with you there, i just want people in politics to talk for crying out loud and stop terrorism in the right way, they don't speak for me as a muslim. as a fact i hate them for killing innocent people and for depicting my religion in that way

  • I am voting for Hussien Obama because he is Muslim not because he is half black Kenyan (no slave blood).

  • Stupid INFIDEL! Islamic law says if your father is a Muslim the child will be a Muslim, Obama Sr. is Muslim! One cannot change religion from a Muslim, the penalty is death. Brother Hussein Obama is MUSLIM!!!!

    President Obama please release our fellow Muslim Khalid Sheikh Mohammed who is held by the American infidels in a US jail in Cuba. 911 happened a long time ago, those infidels should get over it! May Allah be with you brother Obama. Muslims Rule!

  • This is exactly why I can't bring myself to watch the local news anymore.

    Does the bimbo-newscaster realize that that's not a real flag??

    Pssss, someone tell her it's a drawing.

  • well if you tink about it... if you are half black and white in out society you are consider black.. so obama thinks of himself of being a black man!!..Obama is being supported by a majority of black leaders and minorities in this country but there are certain things that he says that some people dont aggree with dats all... but i tink he will win no matter how much bs he goes through

  • Lukatmee has a point though. Biracial people really appreciate it if people were sensitive enough to distinguish mixed from 100% black. It something that annoys me when I see everyone do that and not think twice about it. I think in this particular case people dismiss his white side because he has a black wife and children that are only 1/4. But generally speaking, people throw a massive hissy fit if biracial people identify with white more than black. Why?!

  • people throw a massive hissy fit if biracial people identify with white more than black.

    I think Black People primarily throw that hissy IMO

  • ...I'm black. And I don't like the general insensitivity on both sides. My fiance is white, our children will be mixed. IMO, mixed people are fully entitled to identify with either one. They're equally half.

  • Your kids will take the black side so basically they are all black. That is the way the black community is ..if you are part black you have to go black all the way. Look at Obama...half white yet totally support the black community...he self segregated himself and donated 48 thousand dollars to Pastor Wright at the trinity church to preach about how bad white people were...so your half white kids will be excused from being a part of slavery if they are pro black only..as your white fiance.

  • ...and also, the whole uproar is a semi-successful attempt to railroad the *real* issues. Like....how far we are in the ditch financially. No one single president can undo the damage Bush has done to this country. It's going to take us decades to get out of this mess.

  • Amen to UsulPrincess. What you say is so true. The American economic outlook does not look too rosy. Bush and his folks have damaged it beyond recognition. I am afraid if Obama gets elected, he will get blamed for a collapsing economy caused by the Bush administration. (Remember the surplus budget that Clinton left behind? Those were the good ole days.)

  • Clinton didn't do that retard, that was Reagan, everyone gives fucking clinton the credit when he didn't do shit besides fuck that one chick in office.

  • wow this stupid news lady saying she doesnt like the american flag burning there are countrys that burn the american flag everyday WITH HATE FOR AMERICAN PEOPLE, only when its done by us can we complain about it right?

  • Let's see, using your "logic" since he is half black, how can people voting for him be voting for a white man? You don't make any sense my bigoted "friend" (your comment about the white house proves you are indeed a dumb bigot). Time to say the magic word "MUSLIM" boo, I scared the shit out of you. Now go lock your doors! (and don't forget to take your KKK robes to the cleaners this week, you morons have a meeting this friday).

  • Wow, America is full of a bunch of stupid racist, fearful people. You morons call Obama a muslim because the word scares you and you want to be scared because you need the "fuel" from this hate to make your stupid dumbass comments. Not ONE of you morons have met Obama, so in a court of law, all your comments would be dismissed as heresay bullshit. America likes it fear, America needs its boogie-man and all you bigots simply can't stand the fact a BLACK MAN might be president, so you FEAR him.

  • Republicans prefer only US citizens vote, not illegal aliens. It's what you Democrats call "divisive".

    Don't worry, Democrat "leaders" are feverishly working on getting ID for illegals in all "57 states".

    Support Hamas -- Obama '08

  • Unable to go 7 seconds without raising the topic of their candidate's skin color, Democrats are left complaining about the manner in which we notice they do so.

    With stunning speed, Obama & his circle of race hustling scum have reduced his own party to warring, tribal factions, each making threats & accusations at the other. Of course, they pause every now & then to accuse observers of being hateful, racist or stupid -so they don't lose practice.

    Liberalism is a crime against humanity.

  • wow buddy, I support mccain also but you are a fucking retard. you make me want to not vote at all.

  • lol

  • ITS MUSLIM. Not MOZLEM.

    On a side note, what station is this? These guys are very playful and free-wheeling. A welcome change from the usual stone-faced delivery we get from most hourly news. Keep it up

  • it would be nice if our retarded country could stop with the flood of religious banter... whats with you people and religion? its everywhere... is everyone tuned out? i was taught a little about all of them but was never (forced) by a family member to choose. does it really matter to everyone what everyone else is? this is like 7th grade again. try spending some time with your kids or good friends...isnt that what matters anyways??? good evening

  • i dont see how the people who would take the time to read and subscribe to the new yorker would not get this. my friends and i saw this and said, "wow, thats ridiculously hilarious." and we're only 16 and 17.

    and honestly, who would think it is the actual truth probably are hardcore non-obama people to begin with and wouldnt vote for him anyways. the new yorker is not like time magazine. its of an entirely different caliber. people who read it will know what it really means.

  • yoshiebe, I'm an Obama supporter but I thought this cover was funny. There are rednecks out there who believe this cover is the truth.

  • i know. i am an obama supporter who thought it was funny too.

    what i'm saying is chances are those 'rednecks' out there who would think are already biased agaisnt him. they probably wouldnt vote for him.

    and those people who would actually believe are what the magazine is making fun of.

    i dont see what the big fuss is about, thats all.

  • I think its good that the White Racists and Supremacists are being mocked in such a way.They have no problem being STUPID but when someone else points out how STUPID they are they want to get upset.Way to go New Yorker.

    TKCAL

  • ....there is NOTHING controversial about this cover.....it shows EXACTLY what an Obama white house would look like....

  • You still have not realized the cover is making fun of your kind, not Obama.

  • ....obama is the devil...

  • Stop cryin' wimp!

  • this is all a PR stunt!!!!!!!!!!

  • You obviously don't read the New Yorker or have seen any of Blitt's other covers. It is not a stunt.

    On one hand, Obama better hope people keep paying attention to the cover and not to the article on him inside.

    On the other, it is very, very, simple people, ready my lips. If you don't like it, don't look at it.

  • America is known for free speech and free imagery. Look what happened in Holland to Theo Van Gogh for making a movie about the plight of woman in Islamic countries. He was killed. If the cover is offensive to anyone, it must resonate some aspect of truth that we are afraid to face ourselves. As Rev. Wright said at Obama's church, "The chickens have come home to roost!"

  • ur such a dumb bitch comparing the flag to the holy cross? you're fucking stupid!

  • It really is embarrassing how dumb, how WILLFULLY ignorant, and how politically correct (OVERLY sensitive) our country has become.

  • .....maybe its your wife...

  • ....josh, ill say hi to your sister, too....shes in bed right next to me....

  • i have two brothers... must be your sister??!!

  • Remember your white guilt you infidels! You owe the Muslims for blaming us for 911! Vote for Hussien Obama!

  • .....besides, I don't see whats so controversial about this cover,...it is an EXACT depiction of what an obama white house will look like.....

  • ...joshmcbeath, you off your meds again???...

  • amusing but after reading all your comments your have made it clear you are from thae backwoods of Kentucky or Mississippi or West Virginia. Go say hi to you mother, sister, grandmother (same person). Your fuzzy logic suggests you need the meds not me. Horhorhorhorhor! You idiot!
