Subject: RE: BS: Tasteless and Offensive New Yorker?
Shooting the messenger is always a good way to distract others from the message. Deriding education strikes me as an attempt to bluff past your lack of it. BB and JTS will always say 'no' if I say 'yes,' so there is nothing new here, is there?

Now where were we?

For every news report you find that says it doesn't work, there will be one out there that says it does and defends it credibly. Fresh Air had an interview yesterday, and there was another one, if I can track it down, with a very lucid interview with the editor of The New Yorker that explained the process in choosing cover art.

The only way Obama can be sure of a win in November is if he has Hillary as his running mate. He's falling apart, just like the folks on this thread are falling all over themselves. He's too new at all of this, rushing into this candidacy too fast, he isn't case-hardened. I'll vote for him because he's the candidate of my party, but he's not the best choice, and this kind of publication event is a good way to illustrate it.

If you don't like the cartoon, too bad, pull your socks up and stop whining. There are bound to be more.
