Satire stretched to the limit?

.!.

This is the cover of The New Yorker this month. The Obama campaign is condemning the image, which is no surprise. The MSM is making a big deal out of it, saying it is satire in poor taste. I’m on the fence, since most of my toons are borderline bad taste. I think most readers of the New Yorker will get it. The toon is making fun of Americans more then it is making fun of Obama. I think it pokes fun of the fact that most Americans believe what the image portrays. I’d be curious what the McSame version would look like?
