Obama on New Yorker Cover
Posted on July 14th, 2008 by ecthompson
I like to laugh as much, or more, than the next guy. I can laugh at myself– and my candidate. But, unfortunately, I think that the New Yorker has gone too far.
Senator Barack Obama and his supporters have fought hard to inform the American public that he is a Christian American. It shouldn’t matter what religion Obama is, but it does. That’s the reality of 2008. Racism and religion are touchy subjects, and New Yorker’s satire isn’t funny. Rather, it is insulting.
Update: I didn’t even notice the American flag burning in the fire place. This is all kinds of wrong.
Update II: 13% of Americans still believe that Barack Obama is a Muslim.
C&L has an excellent summary of progressive blogs.
