I guess the part that gets me is that it's "supposed" to poke fun at how some Americans view the Obamas. 1) I'm ashamed that some Americans are that ignorant! 2) Putting this picture on the cover gives the impression that the New Yorker backs up the ignorant view. It probably would have gone over better had it been smaller, in the jokes section, with a caption that said "American ignorance at it's finest."
