American Muslim's New Rage Boy

It's only a cartoon! But Obama adds that New Yorker cover insults Muslims

Barack Obama says he's "seen and heard worse" than The New Yorker cartoon (below) satirizing attacks on him and his wife by the political right.

In his first substantive talk about the magazine's inflammatory cartoon depicting him and his wife as fist-bumping terrorists, Obama told CNN's Larry King the image fueled misconceptions and insulted Muslim Americans.

#1  Could be worse. Could take this David Byrn interview and overpaste bo's face, change the dialogue - not that anyone would do such a thing, right Senator Lieberman?

It is sad and telling, the overresponse. President Bush and his administration takes theirs as light as a feather - some of the jabs just downright mean. I knew what it was right off the bat - if you don't like bo then you must think like this. In a sideways view it would be a way to shame clinton supporters who would rather vote McCain into thinking that if they do then they share the smear.

The obsurdity I note is that if bo was in office guns would be illegal so he would have to arrest his wife.
