Subject: RE: BS: Tasteless and Offensive New Yorker?
Actually I thought Obama did quite well in refraining from comment on the first day while he thought through the correct response. Maybe he should have controlled his campaign a little more, though. The teflon coat is an invaluable asset and if he showed umbrage in response to a political cartoon it would have shown unacceptable weakness. He did very well in saying it didn't bother him but that muslim attire shouldn't be viewed as an insult in anyone's book.
