Tasteless "New Yorker" Cover

Now honestly guys, even if you don't support Barack Obama, you must admit that this cover is tasteless!!!   What type of satire is this? What editor thought this was acceptable? To imply that the Obama's are "terrorist" is absolutely ridiculous!  This is not only untrue, but actually slanderous, and irresponsible. I find this down right insulting, and I'm not even on the cover!

The implication that being Muslim is equivalent to being a terrorist or unpatriotic is absolutely unacceptable. By the way, Barack Obama is not a Muslim, but even if he were, what difference would it make. As a Christian, I am appalled by these images, and their implications. This is why there is war and strife in the world; lack of regard and respect for the differences.

If you feel the same, write in, and tell the New Yorker what you think.

Update

It has been awhile since I've written anything. I actually got a little overwhelmed by everyday task (work, adoption paperwork, house repairs, did I mention work). Anyhoo, on the adoption front, we finally have a draft of our homestudy. (Yipee!!) We have a 2 more pieces of paperwork to turn in, and hopefully our social worker can finalize it before our I600A application expires at the end of the month (talk about pressure). I mean I really don't want to pay another $700 to do that thing again. I'll let you know how it turns out.

We received our criminal clearances form the state and our gold seal letter for adoption from the FBI. (Something required in Maryland)  Now oddly, this FBI clearance won't count for our dossier. We will have to be fingerprinted yet again (that makes 4) for the official FBI clearance letter. You think these folks could work together to get some national fingerprint database. Or at least make one for us PAP's (potential adoptive parents) so we don't drive ourselves crazy getting fingerprinted every couple weeks. 

Once we receive our homestudy, I am hoping gladney approval will be right around the corner. I'm trying to complete all of our paperwork before July 25. (We will see how that goes).

(Sidebar) : If anyone is interested, I was recently informed by my social worker of an opportunity to adopt an African American infant to be born within the next 2 weeks. Baby will be born in Texas, and PAP's should have a completed homestudy.  Email me if interested, and I can forward the information to my social worker.
