Sure, you could look at this as a little faw-faw fancy-pants insider jab-taking over at the Conde Nast building. And you’d be right. But Vanity Fair has managed to one-up the New Yorker‘s now-infamous Obama cover with an image that’s actually funny, and come to think of it, they kind of stole my idea (although I admit it was pretty obvious). The cover shows the McCains also celebrating their arrival in the White House with a fist bump, although John’s head is decorated not with a turban, but with bandages, and he leans precariously on a walker. Cindy clutches pill bottles in one hand (snap!) and a portrait of a doofy-looking W hangs on the wall, while the constitution burns in the fireplace. It’s funny cause it’s true! See the full-sized image after the jump.
