Obama

Barack Obama was asked if he had a response to the very controversial New Yorker cover that combines every rumor and smear about him and his wife Michelle into an image of them as Muslim, black-power radicals "terrorist fist-bumping" in the Oval Office while an American flag burns in the fireplace beneath a portrait of Osama bin Laden. Obama shrugged with resignation as he heard the question and then smiled wryly, saying he had no response. Obama's spokesman later issued a statement calling the cover "tasteless" and "offensive".

i doubt seriously that obama found it offensive or tasteless. spoken like a true politician, "no comment". he'll milk it for what it's worth....that being: exposing republican mudslinging for what it is.

You can tell he's not happy about it. The reply is written on his face. This candidate has been publicly humiliated throughout the primaries by Democrats, members of his own party. I am disgusted with some of the people in this party. They're worse than Republicans. Once again Democrats helping out Republicans. It's sickening. When is this public lynching going to stop?

There is serious vindictiveness being carried out against him. What a bunch of losers.
