El Barack Obama and his campaign are peeeeeesed about the New Yorker magazine cover showing the Democratic presidential candidate dressed as a Muslim and his wife as a terrorist. Obama’s campaign called it “tasteless and offensive.” And that’s why I like it! Come on, it shows how stupid Republicans are by trying to instill fear in people. His middle name is “Hussein”, big f*cking deal!!
“The Politics of Fear” drawn by El Barry Blitt, depicts El Barack Obama wearing traditional Muslim garb — sandals, robe and turban — and his wife, La Michelle — dressed in camouflage, combat boots, a rifle— standing in the Oval Office like a badass. The fabulous black couple is doing a fist tap in front of a fireplace in which an Jewnited States flag is burning. Over the mantel hangs a portrait of Osama bin Laden. CRAZY CHIT!!!
Republican Yohn McCain’s campaign spokesman, Tucker Bonds, agreed that the cover was “tasteless and offensive” (which means those motherfathers are loving it).
One of the coolest political blogs, El Huffington Post, said: “Anyone who’s tried to paint Obama as a Muslim, anyone who’s tried to portray Michelle as angry or a secret rebolutionary out to get Whitey, anyone who has questioned their patriotism — well, here’s joor image.”
It’s chisme time, chisme, chisme time!!!
i hate this picture! but La Coacha you do have a point. it Also depicts how brainwashed the American people can be. but why Obama? why not Mc Cain?
I think the picture is perfect in how false it is.
It’s the perfect symbol for Republicans.
They don’t use fact or logic, but brainwashing and propaganda to further their own agendas.
This may make Republicans hate Obama more, but how much more could they hate him?
It also makes me hate Republicans more, and I don’t think I’m the only Democrat who would say that.
So basically it does not get their point across, except to people weak minded enough to believe this shit, and that’s mostly Republicans anyways.
