Boehner Fist Bump' On New Yorker Cover

The New Yorker has reprised the "terrorist fist bump" cover that irked Obama in 2008—this time with House Speaker-in-waiting John Boehner standing in for Michelle. The cover, by artist Barry Blitt, features the president offering his hand to Boehner and being offered a fist in return, the Huffington Post reports. The victorious Republican was on the cover of Newsweek earlier this week and will be on Time's cover later this month.
