I tried to buy the New Yorker with Obama and dear Michelle on the cover, but every book store is sold out.  If anyone can get me one, I'll pay you back shipping and the cost of the magazine, and love you forever.

I saw it on the news. Is it really sold out or did they pull the issue?

My queen, earlier today i watched a parody on the internet and Obama was riding on an unicorn. For that reason, I will no longer mount my royal one-horn wonder but will let him graze peacefully in the lower-40. I will need some other form of royal conveyance.
I was wondering if his book was pulled as well. Or you have to ask fo rit. I know some book stores will let you think they are sold out of some books. But really you have to order them.

If you really want one any book store you go to should be able to order the book for you with out a problem. My husband orders his books all the time.

Heading out to my favorite newstand, I'll see if they still have any copies left.

omg! i knew there's a lot of controversy surrounding the cover but i didn't think it would actually sell out so fast!
kelldogg ! Jul 16, 2008, 11:34am UTC
if i'm out and see one i'll give you a shout!
CyberGwen ! Jul 16, 2008, 11:56am UTC
I will keep my eye out for you, if I go out. This one would be a keeper!

I can't find any info about it getting pulled.

Come on! Would there be such outrage if this was a satirical cover about McCain? They talk all the time about how old he is. Seems like they're displaying their prejudice against seniors.
Sarah (I want points) Jul 16, 2008, 12:16pm UTC
Interesting... Wonder why it's gone.
Jennifer G. Jul 16, 2008, 12:20pm UTC
We don't have it now.... sold out.
Jennifer Hodge Jul 16, 2008, 4:03pm UTC
Hi Carol, I would be happy to send you this issue. No need to pay for it or the postage. You can Gather email me your address and I will send it on out to you.
Wanda H. Jul 16, 2008, 4:27pm UTC
Maybe collectors are trying to get ahead of the curve for big sales on eBay.

I would be just as disgusted if this cover was about McCain. It went beyond satire and into bad taste
Vivian A. Jul 16, 2008, 4:56pm UTC
Interesting.
Joy H. Jul 16, 2008, 5:11pm UTC
They have to have it online somewhere?
Beaker (just Beaker) Jul 16, 2008, 5:12pm UTC
Still waitin' for mine to come in the mail. Oops, I hear the mailman now. Gotta go.
Debby C. Jul 16, 2008, 6:59pm UTC
Wow, but not unexpected they made so much of it as it was intended to do me thinks. Let us know who finds it first..will be interesting to hear I think!
Larry H. Jul 16, 2008, 10:27pm UTC
can't help you
Steph-in-NE ..... Jul 16, 2008, 10:45pm UTC

I got the last copy at a Borders here in town.
I think they might order more. The clerk said that some people are buying two or three copies because they think this will be a collector's item.

Whatcha gonna do with it, Carol? Throw darts? Not an O'Bama fan, but I thought the cover was sick.
