Obama Mad Magazine Cover: Spoofs President's First 100 Days (PHOTOS)

First Marvel Comics, now Mad Magazine. President Barack Obama, who was given the illustrious honor of appearing on the cover of Marvel's "Amazing Spider-Man" comic earlier this month, is now being spoofed courtesy of Mad magazine. Playing off the theme of his 'first 100 days,' the magazine's cover features a stressed-out Obama puffing away on cigarettes as he scans dire newspaper headlines during his "first 100 minutes."

This is not the first time Obama has graced the satirical magazine's cover, which announced last week that it will now be published quarterly instead of monthly. He also appeared on the September 2008 cover with the headline "Yes We Can't".

They were kind enough not to include a line of coke and a bottle of beer! Remember the old days, Obama!

I thought they always had Alfred E. Neuman somewhere on the cover - did they stop doing that, or was that never a tradition?

[Hare]

Poor Obama, he is like What the h ck this guy left me with, what was he sleeping on the job?

[maxie1]

This cover totally depicts the mess our country is in! MAD is the greatest , I love it. My Mama and I used to laugh at it fifty years ago, it's satire, don't be so serious.

[discourse jockey]

MAD magazine still exists? Who would've guessed.

Hate to break the news to you Bush Bashers! This cover is spoofing Obama-NOT Bush. Did you hear that Obama tried to walk through a window today-can we blame it on Bush?

"Hate to break the news to you Bush Bashers! This cover is spoofing Obama-NOT Bush. Did you hear that Obama tried to walk through a window today-can we blame it on Bush?"

"The usual gang of idiots" at MAD probably got warned that if they didn't say nice things about Bushie, they'd all be gitmo'd.

But to answer your question -- that window is about the only thing that's gone bad for BHO since January 20th that _isn't_ Bushie's fault! Bleep, Bushie's choice for Chief Justice couldn't even get the one-sentence-long Oath of Office right!

YES WE CAN

[Dissident Dexter]

YOU ARE OVER. SHUT UP, GO HOME, AND SIT DOWN. I'M BLAMING YOU FOR BUSH AND THE MESS HE LEFT MY COUNTRY IN. F.O.A.D.

[akw]

Oh, well aren't you big and strong! LMAO!!!

[protagonia]

PS-To DaniBoy: If you think W is not deserved of bashing and worse, then you register about as high an IQ as a pigeon.

Shoo!

[protagonia]

You are particularly unintelligent.

Or, perhaps you are simply ev!l.

Many of W's remaining and current fans are.

[neumann]

Begs the question: Mad Magazine still exists???????

[parseerror]

*Raises* the question.

[kingmiller]

Heh heheheheheheh!

[demfriend]

I have no a doubt Barack Obama has a copy of the mag with him on it laughing at himself!!! Unlike Bush who never lost the "monkey" version of himself in and on everything Barack Obama ha a real sense of humor which is obvious. Bush made jokes out of everyone with his nicknames which were horrible for them. The spread between what Bush was and who Obama is gets wider by the minute.

[hellifiknow]

I saw it first in DC and laughed. I mean, it's Mad magazine...but it was hella funny and I'm sure P.O. can see the humor....

[KatDawgATL]

Classic.

[jl4141]

What, me quarterly?

[hudsuckerproxy]

I don't see the cover as a slam at all. It depicts Obama as a president who is on the case. Bush would be taking a nap.

[ErnestineBass]

I can see it now! Booosh (wearing a propeller beanie) and Chinny (wearing a raccoon-skin hat) sitting in a sandbox playing with plastic army men. Oh, yeah...

[Aesthete]

It has been years since I last saw a Mad magazine, but I remember it well, especially its satire of the film, "Lawrence of Arabia." I still laugh every time I think about it. Don't get me wrong---I loved the film, but I also enjoyed the satire.

[hardheadedwoman]

Oh my god...I remember that! Shows how old we are!

[Budokan]

Mad knows how to do satire...unlike Fox News which tries to do news but it comes across as satire leavened with ideological hate.

[OmegaPhoenix]

I literally laughed out loud when I saw this cover. It's hysterical on all fronts. The expression on President Obama's face, in conjunction with the cigarettes and medicine all over the place -- priceless! Note to the Right: THIS is how you do satire.

[teacheng]

Right. This is hilarious!

[SandraL]

LOVE THIS COVER! Obama has a lot of work to do and this is satire at its finest!
