What The ??

Black teen pregnancies? A ‘crisis’ in black America.
White teen pregnancies? A ‘blessed event.’

If you grow up in Hawaii you’re ‘exotic.’
Grow up in Alaska eating mooseburgers, you’re the quintessential ‘American story.’

Similarly, if you name your kid Barack you’re ‘unpatriotic.’
Name your kids Trig and Track, you’re ‘colorful.’

If you’re a Democrat and you make a VP pick without fully vetting the individual you’re ‘reckless.’
A Republican who doesn’t fully vet is a ‘maverick.’

The editor should be fired. Anyone of African-American descent working for them should resign. I’m so damn pissed by this I can’t even really comment. What pisses me off even more is that these assholes tried to defend it. Here’s what they said

“…the magazine said the cover “combines a number of fantastical images about the Obamas and shows them for the obvious distortions they are.”

“The burning flag, the nationalist-radical and Islamic outfits, the fist-bump, the portrait on the wall? All of them echo one attack or another. Satire is part of what we do, and it is meant to bring things out into the open, to hold up a mirror to prejudice, the hateful, and the absurd. And that’s the spirit of this cover,” the New Yorker statement said.”

I say bullshit. there is a political agenda behind this. It’s inflammatory, and racist at best. What is behind Michelle Obama having an afro? An AK-47? Fatigues? Also, if you read the article it isn’t a positive one at all. Which of course is the writer’s right. But you cannot use the excuse that the cover is “lampooning” all the lies about the Obama’s to show how absurd they are if the article isn’t positive. Doesn’t make any sense. That’s not how satire works. All this cover will do is re-inforce the Republican lies being spread about Obama “hating America”, being muslim, etc.

If this cover disgusts you, please write, call, and or email the New Yorker HERE and let them know how chicken shit this is.

McCain’s skeletons are JUMPING out of the closet, yet no mainstream media coverage. I had to Israelnews.com to find this.

An audio recording has been discovered in which Hagee elaborates on his belief that Hitler and The Nazi’s were “divine agents” of God, sent to chase Europe’s Jews towards Palestine. In his 2006 book, “Jerusalem Countdown”, Hagee proposed that anti-Semitism, and thus the Holocaust, was the fault of Jews themselves - the result of an age old divine curse incurred by the ancient Hebrews through worshiping idols and passed, down the ages, to all Jews now alive.

In the recording below, Hagee implies that God caused the Holocaust because of Jewish “iniquity” and “sin”, and for filling God’s “inheritance with the carcasses of their detestable and abominable idols.”

Alzheimer’s is a degenerative and terminal disease for which there is currently no known cure. In its most common form, it occurs in people over 65 years old although a less-prevalent early-onset form also exists. The disease can begin many years before it is eventually diagnosed. In its early stages, short-term memory loss is the most common symptom, often initially thought to be caused by aging or stress by the sufferer. Later symptoms include confusion, anger, mood swings, language breakdown, long-term memory loss, and the general withdrawal of the sufferer as his or her senses decline.

We’ve already seen his confusion, anger and mood swings. Now there is video proof of his memory loss. All aboard…….”The Straight Talk Express”

Now either he has alzheimer’s, or is too old to understand the concept of the video camera and how everything he says can be replayed at a later time. Either way, he’s too damn old to be President.

Here’s a list of 10 things younger than John McCain, aka Old Man (Abe) Simpson.

There is an entire site dedicated to things younger than McCain, these are my favorite in no particular order.

1. Penicillin
2. The Minimum Wage
3. The Lincoln Tunnel
4. BOTH of Barack Obama’s Parents
5. The Area Code
6. Nylon
7. Velcro
8. Israel
9. FM Radio
10. The Polio Vaccine

You may have heard of Rev. John Hagee, the McCain supporter who said God created Hurricane Katrina to punish New Orleans for its homosexual “sins.” Well now meet Rev. Rod Parsley, the televangelist megachurch pastor from Ohio who hates Islam. According to David Corn of Mother Jones, Parsley has called on Christians to wage war against Islam, which he considers to be a “false religion.” In the past, Parsley has also railed against the separation of church and state, homosexuals, and abortion rights, comparing Planned Parenthood to Nazis.

John McCain actively sought and received Parsley’s endorsement in the presidential race. McCain has called Parsley “a spiritual guide,” and he hasn’t said whether he shares Parsley’s vicious anti-Islam views. That’s because the mainstream media refuses to ask.

After discussing Obama’s former pastor, Rev. Wright, for the last 2 months, with it being the lead story on every show all day long on Fox News Channel and CNN for weeks, replaying video of his controversial remarks over and over ad nauseum, taking the first 10-15 minutes of the most recent Democratic debate to discuss Rev. Wright, wouldn’t you think they would spend 5 minutes on McCain’s two controversial “Spiritual Advisors”?

Since the media won’t question McCain about his deeply bigoted pastor, it’s up to you to call attention to this issue. Make McCain’s pastor problem a major story by forwarding these videos to your family, friends, and colleagues.

On September 18, 2006, Pastor John Hagee — whose endorsement Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) said this past Sunday he was “glad to have” — told NPR’s Terry Gross that “Hurricane Katrina was, in fact, the judgment of God against the city of New Orleans.” “New Orleans had a level of sin that was offensive to God,” Hagee said, because “there was to be a homosexual parade there on the Monday that the Katrina came.”In February, after working hard to gain Hagee’s endorsement, McCain said he was “very honored” to receive it. Since then, he has both “repudiate[d]” and defended Hagee’s anti-Catholic and “anti-anything” remarks. But as Think Progress has noted, McCain has never specifically commented on Hagee’s offensive beliefs about Hurricane Katrina or his anti-gay comments.

Here is a list of Hagee’s comments:

4. You have to believe that federal funding is a handout and that disadvantaged people should be able to “pull themselves up by their bootstraps,” just like you and your daddy and his daddy before him.
5. You have to believe that someone made up global warming to scare you into not driving that gas-guzzling SUV.
6. You have to believe that being sexually confused is an abomination that God hates.
