The December 5, 2005 New Yorker cover depicted Bush as a housemaid in an apron with a feather duster while Cheney in an easy chair smokes a cigar, with beer cans and crooked paintings in the Oval Office.

The recent Gay Pride / Queer Issue of the Village Voice shows Bush and Cheney passionately kissing, with the caption Make Love Not War

Another Village Voice cover showed Bush as a vampire sucking blood from a cadaverous Statue of Liberty.

Well, I think the New Yorker used the best one from my perspective to satire the fears regarding Obama.

Here are the other two I liked:

I agree. These two are pretty good though.

Obama believes he is above criticism and will act aggressively to prevent stories and images, he and his supporters believe are unflattering from being published.  Obama has become a one-man national censor.

A while back, Obama was all upset that his wife, Michelle, received fire for her anti-American views, and ordered the media and Republicans to "leave my wife alone" -- even as the bride was out dissing the United States.

Two weeks ago, Dr. Danielle Allen, who failed to identify herself as an Obama campaign worker and maximum contributor, attacked me and a couple of others in the Washington Post for daring to publish, on the Internet, opinion that she believes is unflattering to Obama.  She calls it calumny, the intentional and generally vicious false accusation of a crime or other offense designed to damage one's reputation.  She wants those she finds guilty of calumny to be shunned and punished under the law.

Two days ago, Obama and his sycophants got their panties in a bunch over the New Yorker cover page showing Obama dressed as a Somali elder (quite true) and Michelle dressed as Angela Davis in the Oval Office, where an American flag burns in the fireplace (image below).

Now, Obama's people are crying "racism" that John McLaughlin used the term "oreo" in a discussion of Jesse Jackson's threat to cut Obama's nuts off.  Mind you, McLaughlin never called or inferred Obama was an "oreo," or Jackson either, but that didn't matter to the Obamalytes, because what Obama is attempting to do is to silence any criticism or perceived criticism of him, and by extension, his wife.  CNN even reported that McLaughlin's innocent comments caused an uproar -- what?

We all have watched as the left has portrayed the President of the United States, George W. Bush with the most unbelievable, doctored images.  Search Google, using the word "Bush" and "Hitler," "chimp," "evil," or "murderer" to see what the Left has been up to for the last 7 years.

George Bush, ever a man, simply ignored these vicious attacks.  Obama, on the other hand,  whines like a child.

But it's worse.  Obama has an agenda here.  He and his minions want to silence any criticism of Obama -- anything that they see as unflattering.  They even stoop to identifying their critics as racists -- which is really strange, since Obama, himself has displayed his personal racism in his writings and spoken words for years.

Beware this guy.  He truly has the instincts of a fascist.

“The New Yorker was mocking conservative criticism of the Obamas’....

I know, I was just throwing you know what at the wall. It does expose Obama’s thin skin to anything considered adverse to his campaign...be it friend or foe.

The Obamas work themselves up over the smallest of things. This shows how thin-skin they are. Just a thought.

Just wait ‘till someone does a parody New Yorker cover of the “Brokeback Cowboys” theme with Obama and Larry Sinclair!!

Now that would be a cover to see, and watching the Obamanators decide whether to launch a firestorm (and risk bringing attention to the Larry Sinclair allegations) or else lie low and hope it doesn’t get circulated too widely...... well it would be fun.

Danielle Allen could get herself into a frenzy (as only a ‘genius’ can). We didn’t see President Bush and VP Cheney whining about the absurd New Yorker cover on them. Obambi’s cultish followers are a bunch of self-righteous, arrogant frauds..... just like their Great Leader.

Reminds me of another group who reacted to a cartoon.

Just can’t seem to remember which group that was rioting all across europe.


That's what Rush stressed more than once today on his radio show.

"...Let’s make this thread a bulletin board for the most offensive cartoons and covers against Republicans we have ever seen."

He probably can’t take another frontal assault, Jimmy Carter’s rabbit is dynamite.
