I think I figured it out. Why am I offended, and the press keeps saying its not a big deal? Let me make it clear - I’m offended because:
* I find the base concept of our flag being burned in the Whitehouse fireplace offensive
* The idea of a picture of Osama bin Laden on the wall of the Oval Office makes me sick
I personally find the portrayal of Barack and his wife less offensive but still extremely distasteful, I can understand why they would find their caricatures offensive, and I love that people are free in this country to print this type of stuff, but that doesn’t mean that I have to like them.
Some people find video games offensive, some people find rap music offensive, some people find modern art offensive, some people find the violence on television and in movies offensive, but I find that cover of the New Yorker offensive, maybe for different reasons than some might think.
