The New Yorker... WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[OzmO]

You certainly have more influence as a mod.. which you shouldn't be.

I do?   Wow, you really live/think in a small place don't you?

It must be frustrating when trying to defend Obamas character ends in disaster and you hurling petty insults.

I'm not defending his character.  Just keeping it from getting out of hand.

I have enough issues with his character as of late.  But you are too filled with hate to see past the labels you place.

Irony

Not much Irony, simple truth concerning you.

[OzmO]

So is Barak Hussein a muslim himself?

No,  it's what the pic suggests. 

[Straw Man]

No way, dems in congress are far more to blame than the GOP.  And you think repealing them will help the middle class?!?!  Like I said.. WEAK.

I'm not hung up on it as much as you think.. obviously I have serious issues with socialism in general, and flip-flopping.  The character stuff is what is in question after that cover so that's why I'm on it.. duh.

BBG  - with all due respect, you're far too dense to have a real conversation much less an actual debate.  You're the one that first mentioned the Bush tax cuts and the issue of oil.  
They are completely different topics (on both of which you seem clueless).  I think I'll try a page out of your play book and just say WEAK.

Give him a break.

Please.. you look like a fool every time you start typing and you call me dense, LOL!

Actually, the first one to try and change the subject was YOU with this wonderfully objective statement:

If you want to bitch about an Elitist with Radical Values then let's start with Our Dear Leader who has complete disdain for the lower and middle class of our country and seems to want to turn our country into the Fourth Reich.   

But keep talking.. your blunders are hilarious.

[Brixtonbulldog]

Don't you guys ever get tired of being wrong?

[OzmO]

Really? 

The new yorker puts a cover out with BO dressed as a muslim, a flag burning on the fire place and Michelle dressed as a militant and i comment on how it's possible people actually believe it and that they shouldn't.

And that's defending his character?

Oh brother,   

[Alex23]

No,  it's what the pic suggests. 

I'm very confused. I don't follow politics much but instead rely on intellectual media elites to inform me.

I feel mislead now and confused. I may vote for McCain now.

again - this a perfect example of why you are dense.  My statement was in response to your parroting of the absurd accusation that Obama is elitist.   I was just trying to give you some perspective on the charge of being an elitist with radical values.

Clearly - the reference went right over your head.   I'll aim lower next time.

It's not an accurate representation of the image being put out by the Obamas, however, if the American public could see and hear the truth about how they really feel and what they really stand for I think it would be a lot closer than anyone would be comfortable with (minus the OBL painting on the wall).  No one knows who they really are at their core.  They spend so much effort hiding their socialist, elitist, and radical values since they know he would never get elected by being honest.

This statement has nothing to do with your last.. just because you have a poor position in the first place doesn't mean you shouldn't be called out for your BS, which I am forced to do often because that seems to be the only thing you're good for.

Now let me put my boots on.

[OzmO]

Yes, you should have to begin with.  Anything bad McCain thinks up that could be bad for the USA he'll potentially forget due to his old age.

how many more times are you're going to prove my point that you're just obtuse.

go back and read and try to figure it out for yourself

One vote for McCain. I don't believe in taxing our way out of "issues".

Obama loves the taxation. American doesn't.

As many times as Ozclown accuses me of labeling and hating and then proceeds to label me and hate me.  : P

that's why i persist in showing you who you are.

Obama is just a Governor Senator, if people want to be outraged, then get mad about what our media says about our current and great President of the United States.

Controversial New Yorker Cover Featuring 'Unpatriotic' Obamas Draws Ire
Tuesday July 15, 2008
CityNews.ca Staff



Like it or loathe it, the cover of the latest issue of The New Yorker is bound to get your attention.

Splashed across the front of the publication's July 21 issue is a political cartoon depicting Barack Obama and his wife as flag-burning radicals. The Democratic presidential candidate is dressed in Muslim attire while Michelle Obama is clad in camouflage with an assault rifle slung over her shoulder. Titled The Politics of Fear, the illustration by Canadian Barry Blitt is raising eyebrows on both sides of the border.

"It might have been a bad decision. It's the sort of thing that could really backfire on them," opines one person asked on the streets of Toronto who saw the magazine.

Another adds, "I think it's terrible, really insulting and in very bad taste."

The illustration has the Obama camp up in arms, arguing the sketch, which also includes a portrait of what appears to be Osama bin Laden hanging on the wall, is "tasteless and offensive."

The illustration isn't explained in the issue, which contains a story about Obama's early years in Chicago. However in responding to the controversy the magazine contends satire is part of what it's always done. New Yorker editor David Remnick says the cover was not meant to be an attention-getter.

"I can't speak for anyone else's interpretations, all I can say is that it combines a number of images that have been propagated, not by everyone on the right but by some, about Obama's supposed 'lack of patriotism' or his being 'soft on terrorism' or the idiotic notion that somehow Michelle Obama is the second coming of the Weathermen or most violent Black Panthers," he maintains. "That somehow all this is going to come to the Oval Office."

Republican presidential candidate John McCain has also condemned the cover.

The issue won't hit newsstands in Toronto until later this week.

Wow, ...the desperation of some people is really showing. {sigh} oh well.

"Not meant to be an attention getter"  Sha Right!    I think someone's nose is growing right about now.

Whose desperation?  The cover is obviously a criticism of the anti-Obama crowd.

[shootfighter1]

Regardless of the motive, you know they count on this cover to get attention.  Like most media, sensationalism over substance.
