Vanity Fair Jabs Back At New Yorker Cover

1. How about adding Carol McCain with her cane and their three children...

Cindy was hooked on prescription drug and used her non-profit organization to paid for it... and never was punished, that's why she really proud to be an American.

McCain drewing is true and Obama false

2. Why tell not about McCains past? His ADs only tells about when he was a POW. Apparently, his life did not begin a that point. What happen to his first wife? Womanizing? He voted against MLK Birthday and we all know it. Everybody know that McCain is too old. He is some stages of demetria.

This cartoon still is not as bad a the picture on the cover of the New York magazine. I have never seen Michelle dress like Angela Davis w/ a weapon on her back and Barack looking like a Muslin. That was dirty journalism.

While writers and journalist are trying to make Obama look bad, its shows real ignorances on their part. How can we UNITE when some are still living in the past steady tring to separate the human race.

DNA does not like, some of the whites who claim to be white probably have some African American blood in their veins.

3. I like the cover with Obama and Michelle best. They make a really good team.

4. The Real Issues are not the spoofs in magazines. It is what is going to happen to middle class America if the following is not corrected: The recession/foreclosures/higher and higher gas prices/etc. etc. etc. I want our future president to correct these situations as well as the war and the budget deficit. This can happen with Senator Obama in charge, not Senator McCain.

5. Bama or Spanky who frigging cares!The wimps,sissies,whiners,bozos,jerkballs and zeros have sent this frigging country down the tubes anyway. Someone flushed the toilet years ago[proably in the 70's] and we are all going down.It all started with 9/11. There are no saviors. Unless we as a country get some balls,we are gone. GOD HELP US ALL!!!!!!!!!!

6. We must never forget that art is not a form of propaganda; it is a form of truth.

7. Unless man is committed to the belief that all mankind are his brothers, then he labors in vain and hypocritically in the vineyards of equality.

8. Way to go Vanity! Nah, it's just as childish but it shows McCain he is not what he think he is!

9. First of all, The New Yorker has always done cutting edge cover drawings. We can look back at controversial depictions of the Clintons and Bush. The fact is, there are actually people in America who believe that Barack Obama is a Muslim and that Michelle Obmama is an extremist. Hard to believe, but it's true. I didn't really have a big issue with the Obama cover until the McCain cover was released. The Obama cover portrays an exaggerated picture of what some people believe, while the McCain cover portrays an accurate account of John and Cindy McCain. Although it may be harsh, John is an elderly man and Cindy did in fact have a problem with prescription drugs. Obama has said many times that he is a Christian man. And somehow people began to believe that Michelle is an extremist because she said this is the first time she is proud of America. I'm going to digress a little on this comment. I totally agree with Michelle Obama. This is the first time in history when Americans of all ages, races, and religions are actively following the presidential campaign. A woman and a black man were honestly being considered for the position of commander in chief! How does one assume that she's a terrorist form this comment? The bottom line is that we as Americans have freedom of speech, I understand that. But if we are going to compare these two magazine covers, you can't help but notice that one cover is accurate and the other is exaggerated.

11. This is another sad attempt by the media to send subliminal messages to white america that Obama is the enemy and the depeciton of his wife as the militant black woman in the spirit of Assata Shakur and Angela Davis this is like a slap in the face. All three of these women are strong and intelligent black women who stood by strong black men who were deemed as being a threat. Dan Rather was on tv and called Obama Osama Bin Laden and Tiki Barber (a brotha) sat there and did not correct him Obama has said on numerous occassions that he is a CHRISTIAN I'm trying to figure out why that is so hard for the mainstream media to accept so to continue to link him to Islamic images has become very disrespectful. I will be glad when someone turns on the light and start talking about the real issues like education and the economy. There are so many of our young brothers and sisters who remain in the dark and need the light of education and community to get out of their situations. It has become a necessity that the "talented 10th" reach back to get the other 90% and teach them so that all of our people can reach their full 100%.
