1. he's interviewing dogs??

I don't get it unless the NYer is slamming his picks? :shrug:

[GodlessBiker]

3. No. It's funny. He's vetting dogs (get it, vetting), since the family is looking for a first pooch

[Laura PourMeADrink]

6. haha, duh. didn't make the vetting connection. You are sharp!

[Laura PourMeADrink]

4. No....it's dogs for his kids..You know, they are trying to find one. I think

it's also a gentle ribbing on his organization/vetting skills. He does it right

[NMDemDist2]

10. OMG I forgot about the First Puppy appointment

OK that is cute.

2. That's sweet. The November cover is my favorite. n/t

5. That's cute!

7. The November cover is by Bob Staake

He's a freakin' genius (and a friend). There is an animated version of this cover on his web site...

9. It is a brilliant cover, though I like the picture version more than the animated version.

I think it's better to see it all at once.

8. Axlerod peeking over the dog's head!! ----> ROFL!!!

[ecstatic]

16. who is the other guy? Can't make him out nt

[nsd]

19. Rahm Emanuel, I think.

[patrice]

21. Yeah, RE. It's confusing because it has RE taller than Axelrod, but that's just

to get some separation between him and the Obama figure, instead of having them stacked right on top of one another and without any depth perspective.

11. D'ya think the New Yorker is trying to amend for its Obama and Michelle as terrorists cover?

This is a nice cover and the November cover was just inspired. I think they are sorry they ran such a stupid cover during the campaign. It was a real lapse in taste, however ironical it was meant...

[hlthe2b]

12. It is great!

I think I may need to buy a few extras...

[Clio the Leo]

13. GO BEAGLES!!! NT

[Vinnie From Indy]

14. The New Yorker is just trying to make amends

for it's BS cover of the Obama's as radicals and terrorists right BEFORE the election. I say, screw 'em!

[gmoney]

15. The beagle is failing...

He should know he's not allowed up on the furniture!

[SaveAmerica]

17. I love your user name more and more with every passing day - 49 and counting!!

49 days 12 hours 26 minutes 40 seconds...

39..

38..

37..

[Laura PourMeADrink]

29. Yes - it can not come soon enough !

20. I had to save that one. I love it.

Biden and Axelrod are in the background :)

Perfect!

[patrice]

22. The artist has even caught the expressions of the breeds.

The Beagle is very sweet; the Boxer is kind of aloof and superior; the Doberman winsome and I can't quite get the Poodle expression.

Definitely a New Yorker keeper cover.

[BrklynLiberal]

23. Thanks. Both are great covers.

Makes me wish I still had a subscription.

[lunatica]

24. Wow! Great old timey New Yorker covers!

LOL! I hope Obama gets a rescue mutt. It would do so much for rescues! They'd become a hot commodity.

[FrenchieCat]

25. That november cover is a work of art! truly!

[bdamomma]

26. I like it!!

and funny too.

[camera obscura]

27. Those are both amazing!

The New Yorker is the only magazine I subscribe to these days, and I always look forward to seeing the new cover each week.

28. I liked the light at the end of the tunnel.

The week after Obama was elected, the cover had a long dark red tunnel with a bright BLUE opening at the end. Very symbolic.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

30. here it is - the blue at the end of the red tunnel
