Newsbusters.org has the funniest story, like, ever! Poor Chris Matthews has worked himself into a tizzy over the possibility that right-wingers will use the cover of the New Yorker Magazine cover featuring Barack and Michelle Obama as Muslim terrorists occupying the Oval Office. Apparently the Left has no sense of satire. Not apparently. The Left has NO sense of satire. (By the way, I have to cut this post short --I am on the phone with my graphic designer to get the T-Shirts up and ready for sale. Stand-by!)

Controversial satirical New Yorker cover showing Barack Obama as a Muslim and his wife as a terrorist was denounced Monday by Mr. Obama's campaign as 'tasteless and offensive' (New Yorker/The Associated Press) Matthews Worries 'Right' Will Turn New Yorker Cover into T-Shirt
On Monday's "Hardball" Chris Matthews was so upset about the New Yorker's cover, depicting Barack Obama in a turban and Michelle Obama toting an AK-47, because he feared "the right will be using that as t-shirt material within the next couple of weeks." Matthews, along with The New Yorker's Ryan Lizza and the Atlantic Media's Ronald Brownstein also insulted all the non-New Yorker subscribers who didn't get the joke as unsophisticated, or as Lizza put it, "a little slow." |
