Meade म्हणाले...: Really. Plus, the skin tone of the football matching the skin tone of the man? Tsk.; १९/११/०८, ८:५४ AM
MadisonMan म्हणाले...: Total agreement. That's horrible. One hears four years of big ears from caricaturists.; १९/११/०८, ८:५५ AM
अनामित म्हणाले...: Amazingly amateurish, like most things that come out of Slate.; १९/११/०८, ९:०२ AM
Balfegor म्हणाले...: Contra Yachira, I actually like Slate, but this is indeed a poor caricature. And it's not like Obama is hard to caricature -- he has an elongated figure, big ears, and deep set eyes. That ought to be more than enough to key off.; १९/११/०८, ९:०५ AM
CrankyProfessor म्हणाले...: Cartoonists are terrified of a reaction like that to the Danish Muhammad cartoons.; १९/११/०८, ९:०८ AM
vet66 म्हणाले...: Let us hope that the proverbial "Lucy", representing reality, doesn't move the football that Barack "Charlie Brown" Obama is trying to kick.

Apparently the caricature was successful as evidenced by the fact that we all recognized the protagonist.; १९/११/०८, ९:१३ AM

It's not hard to guess when the first two words of the article are "Barack Obama," and the article is about Obama. I mean, it could be a totally unrelated caricature that just happened to be paired with this article, but how likely is that?; १९/११/०८, ९:१७ AM
Roger J. म्हणाले...: Why am I thinking any caricature is going to feature some big ears? Can't wait to see what IBD's Ramirez settles on.; १९/११/०८, ९:२४ AM
Unknown म्हणाले...: I think that's a great likeness! ... of a young, tanned Bob Eubanks.; १९/११/०८, ९:३७ AM
ricpic म्हणाले...: Nice tan.; १९/११/०८, १०:०१ AM
अनामित म्हणाले...: He looks like Don Adams made of peanut butter.; १९/११/०८, १२:४१ PM
JackOfClubs म्हणाले...: The eyebrows suggest that it was originally intended as a Bush caricature and was re-colored for the new regime. Unfortunately, googling the artist's name doesn't provide any evidence to bear this out.; १९/११/०८, १:५५ PM

They might have also been tipped off by the heading of this blog post.; १९/११/०८, ३:४९ PM
