Latest New Yorker Cover Zings Obama With Romney Debating…an Empty Chair

Oct. 6, 2012 11:54am

The latest cover of the New Yorker draws inspiration from President Barack Obama’s disappointing debate performance against Republican rival Mitt Romney with Romney facing off at the podium against an empty chair.

New Yorker Obama Romney empty chair debate

Image source: New Yorker

Titled “One on One,” artist Barry Blitt said, “This image seemed like a proper response to the first presidential debate.”

“But I’m not sure I realized how hard it is to caricature furniture,” he added.

The empty chair is of course a nod to actor Clint Eastwood’s Republican National Convention routine when he pretended to have a conversation with Obama.

      Well thanks for sharing, now we know what the lunatic fringe is thinking. Don’t worry, I am sure Gary Johnson will do better than any Libertarian in history and get 1% of the entire vote. I honestly hope he gets more than that as I hope the anti-war types being upset with Obama turn to Gary Johnson. I am hoping he gets what Ralph Nader did 2.7% of the vote or so, just enough to let Romney win and restore American exceptionalism as our voice instead of the constant droning of Anti-American rhetoric we here from the left and the lunatic fringe.

      That’s because it’s a null story. Gary Johnson and Jesse Ventura are even more of a joke than Ron Paul.

    There IS much to be hopeful about, however. I attended a Romney/Ryan event here in VA on Thursday night and the turnout was beyond unbelievable. If this was an indication of what is happening at other events around the country, Barry the Bungler is in serious trouble.

    The ‘minorities’ around my area are already preparing for taking the bus to the poles. All Obama folks, too!
    I am prepared for the worst, as I believe there will be a great deal of fraud, as I heard one such couple, who vote Virginia on absentee ballet, and have a home in Florida and planning to vote there also. How would anyone in Florida know any difference? They don’t! I am not surprised by anything the Obama camp pulls off. Remember Acorn. It’s still around, just called by a different name. They will fight in any disgusting way to beat Romney. Romney is polished, informative, and professional, so he made Obama look like a dummy sitting on his knee. I was waiting for Romney to reach over and turn Obama’s eyes towards him. He never directly looked at Romney while he responded to questions. He looked down. Never trust a person who never looks you in the eyes when you are speaking to them. This is your first lesson in sale techniques and reading your potential customer. Obama can’t function without a teleprompter. He had plenty of time soaring around in his jet to prepare for the first debate. There were no excuses! NONE.

    Romney sounded like Ronald Reagan, and he did a magnificent job. I expect no less on the 16th. Chew him up and then spit him out…. We don’t need another four years of Obama, and those he has bussed into the campaign sites are a bunch of idiots. I wouldn’t give you a penny to see him, nor waste my time trying to get in to see him.

And she was actually surprised when I suggested that maybe since they are illegal aliens that maybe they shouldn’t be voting at all. She looked me in the eye, with a straight face, and said that since they live here it’s their country too and it’s only right that they should vote.

      Good insight. I have noticed a bit of change in the last few weeks. They know the “real” polling going on, and they want nothing to do with a loser. They will blame Obama with every excuse they can think of if he loses the election. But for now, why not look a little more credible….. That’s what I’m getting from it anyhow……

    Don’t let OB’s lackluster performance fool you.
    LOOK at the other hand.
    Did you ever think that the closer the race, the less likely they will suspect
    voter fraud on the day of the election?
    Voter Fraud is already occuring with the WH telling Lockheed to ignore Federal Rules
    and NOT send 60 day notices of layoffs because they don’t want it to affect people’s VOTE.
    AND Lockheed was promised that WE (the taxpayers) will be footing the bill for their legal defense
    to this broken law. Lockheed was only one of these companies told to do this. They depend on the gov’t for revenue, thus they are complying. What do you think THAT will be doing to the swing-state votes? I just hope the workers get ANGRY as now no one will have advanced notice that they’ll be one of those selected for layoffs and will not vote or vote for the OTHER guy..

The more they report it being neck in neck the less tampering they’ll have to do to prove a win to the majority

      Promised to cover legal bills. A scheme to buy off management, labor and lawyers with tax payer money. Clever or deceitful? A few votes here and few votes the administration is willing to toss under the bus. There is no guarantee of paying the legal fees no matter the election outcome, just if the current administration wins.

      Same deal as the tax rebates in the 2008 election. Vote Obama in and he will send out the checks from the public coffers. Had Obama lost no checks. Integrity would have won. We found out the price of integrity in 2008. Is integrity still for sale?

    Romney achieved his tactical goal and is finally bringing us together. Things are going our way, and we do not need bogus hope taking the air back out of our tires. Allen West to the Rescue!

    West knows he has to crush the enemy with total dominance and clear eyed decisiveness. Go ankle deep in blood and get your knuckles bloodied. No mercy. No pity.

    Colonel West understands military tactics and Representative West will be appointed to an important cabinet position in the new Romney administration before the final debates.

    Ryan needs West’s help by next week’s Veep Debates to put the final coffin nails in place, but be assured he WILL not Waver.

    Pray they put this ship called America on its righteous course to freedom.

      I don’t know if you actually believe it or not, but to say Romney will take us back towards the Constitution isn’t an accurate statement at all. All progressives will take this country further from the Constitution. That’s what makes them progressives. So here’s your chance, name ONE example of how Romney will take us back towards the Constitution. You can’t do it. So don’t even hand my that line of crap.

      TRUTH. Ron Paul started out as a bitter young man when The United States dared draft his sorry @ss into our Military (which PO’d him off greatly). He was soooo PO’d in fact that he looked for and took any opportunity that would get him as far away from Viet Nam as humanly possible.

      Pays to have been in the medical field at that time as he was the kind of guy who ran away from danger as opposed to running towards it. Coward…

      LOL…. ANGRY fellow aren’t you JUST… and DEMANDING too !!

      I’m thinking the “progressive” Mitt as you state, would nominate / appoint a more Constitution adhering Supreme if the opportunity arises. As opposed to Obama, I’m thinking Romney would nominate / appoint wise, experienced, and restrained judges who take seriously their oath to discharge their duties impartially in accordance with the Constitution and laws… not their own personal policy preferences.

      Nice try. He said he’d appoint Justices like Roberts to the court. (progressives) Do you think he’d appoint justices that oppose all the unconstitutional acts he supports to the court? He’d appoint judges that believe in the living constitution theory as he, Kagan, Sotomayor, and Ginsburg believe in.

      Well JUST, Romney DID state he admired Roberts quite awhile ago… BUT seeing how Justice Roberts ruled on Obamacare… you can bet Romney will have much pressure on him to make a more Conservative nomination (and one who opposes Gay marriage as Romney has stated he would like).

      The pick might have to be a “stealth candidate” to avoid endless Dem-led filibustering… BUT… if Romney has the cajones, he will nominate that staunch Conservative with a clear voting record regardless of a messy confirmation process.

      Being that you Ron Paul guys are only about 1/4 Conservative and the rest socially Liberal / Progressive (and Obama enablers)… you don’t get a say… JUST like at the Convention…

      That’s BS. Not only do you have it backwards, the Blaze Nazi’s won’t let me post about it. Social conservatives are progressives. I have always argued a theory of constitutionalism that Scalia and Thomas share. You know, the two most conservative justices on the court. Progressives take short cuts around the amendment process to legislate/justify the federal government doing anything not specifically authorized by the Constitution. Such as gay marriage. That’s it. Of course, we’ve been over this, and instead of researching it for yourself you keep letting idiot pundits do you thinking for you.

      Yeah, yeah, yeah…. everyone (including The Blaze) is a Nazi if they don’t let JUST do JUST as he wants, when JUST wants to do it (social-Liberal/progressive mentality)… whine, whine, whine… Nazis, Nazis, Nazis… it’s all about me, me, me…

      Funny thing… Ron Paul got all that Neo-Nazi support… heil Paul, heil mein fuhrer… sieg heil Ron Paul.

      I’m not whining. You just don’t know what a progressive is. I started this thread making fun of the New Yorker for being a bunch of pompous windbags. You had to antagonize with your ignorance. Like Romney will take us back towards the Constitution and social liberals are progressives. That is, unless you can point to the Constitution where it authorizes the Federal Government to bud into other peoples’ business. You can’t because all the vice laws and federal agencies to enforce them started well after the Constitution was written and you’ll find their roots smack dab in the middle of the progressive era.

      I didn’t have Romney for a first choice, BUT in saying that, I also know how to look at the big picture and realize that if bo gets back in it is game over. Period. If Romney gets in we have a shot of slowing the runaway train and buy some time to find the ‘right’ leaders to turn completely back to the Constitution.
      See how that works? bo–no chance, game over. Romney–possibly live to at least fight for the Constitution. To think that gary johnson (wrong dude anyway) will somehow get the votes to win this election and turn the country around will not happen, but you would rather cut your nose off to spite your face. This is not a game and to assume that all of us are either stupid or selling out is dead wrong and you all know it.
      Your boys, Paul or Johnson, won’t be able to do anything huge at this point anyway if they were to get into the presidency because they DO go strictly by the Constitution (supposedly) and there is not the support between BOTH parties in the house and senate to support the Constitution (sadly). They would have to stick with presidential orders or go around congress to achieve anything worth value unless they go against everything they say they believe in.
      Where do you think your/our cause will be if bo is re-elected? Is it worth it just to be able to say ‘we sure did show you guys’? Please apply logic rather than emotion. You can’t just flip the boat around, you must turn it….If you try and flip it, you sink and drown.

      Rajabear1, If I actually believed that I’d vote for him. I obviously don’t. I think his foreign policy and his national security advisers are dangerous. Besides live to fight another day for the republicans that told you at the convention that your voice doesn’t matter. No thank you. I’m voting for 2016 and proudly doing so because the democrats and republicans suck.
