WHAT'S REALLY UP WITH THE OBAMA - NEW YORKER FLAP?

It's not the cover that is funny. Here we have a lefty-liberal leaning publication ostensibly trying to make light of how critics of Obama are supposedly caricaturing him. Oh really? Just who on the right, or in the opposition is doing that? That fact is that time after time questions about Obama's ethnicity or "blackness" have consistently come from the left.

Here's a very funny and brief editorial on the New Yorker cover art. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,383261,00.html

What's really funny here is that the New Yorker thought this satire to be funny. But is it? The only laughter coming from the right is the obsession the lefties have with how they think the opposition might try to characterize the Obamas. Shoot, the opposition doesn't need to stoop to such lame tactics. Indeed, McCain is going out of his way to be a nice guy. Too, nice. He is constantly throwing overboard his own supporters whenever they burp even the least politically incorrect or insensitive utterance. 

No, the opposition does not need to stoop to such adolescent tactics. Obama can be handily beaten by a discussion of his positions. He is so wrong on so much, all one has to do is point out that this emperor has no clothes.

So what do you think? Should the New Yorker be taken to the Obama woodshed?
