We were saving Ann Leary, the “Backyard Conservative,” for a New Wingut of the Week award,* but her post on the current cover of the New Yorker is too good to pass up:
New Yorker Trashes Obamas
The New Yorker outdoes itself on the sophisticated satire–which is total trash.
Huh? If anyone can figure out what on earth that sentence means when translated into English, please share your thoughts with us in the comments.
I’ll let you view the controversial cover at The Politico. Huffpo reaction here.
And the New Yorker tries to blame it all on us righties.
Which is, of course, completely unfair because no one on the right has suggested the Obama is a Muslim or that Michelle made a terrorist fist jab
This kind of gross stereotypic thinking seems to be a pattern on the left.
But, of course, saying that something is a “pattern on the left” isn’t a stereotype. That is because each conservative has a unique individual voice that springs from the depths of his or her finely-tuned conscience, whereas all liberals are merely automatons parroting the ideas implanted in their brains by the evil liberal press, which, in turn, simply says what George Soros wants it to say.
I do kinda like Michelle’s combat boots though.
You knew this was going to happen, didn’t you? A few crocodile tears and some poutrage from Ann over the idea that wingnuts would ever suggest that Michelle was a terrorist and then, next thing you know, out plops from her mouth what she swore up and down she’d never say. After that, Ann giggles, burps, and blames that little outburst on that second tot of gin she had right after her husband left for work.
*According to the rules of the New Wingnut of the Week award — which have been established by, and are being administered impartially by, Sadly, No!’s New York law firm — no one is eligible for the NWOTW award if they have been mentioned at Sadly, No! prior to the bestowal of the NWOTW award.
