The people for whom this cover would reinforce their beliefs don't read The New Yorker.
And in all likelihood, they don't get satire.
I didn't see the cover until last night, after hearing news story after news story about it. (Hey, at least it was a break from Brangelina's twins.) After seeing the cover, my thought is that perhaps it could have been better executed (although
please -- no lame thought bubbles), but it was clear what it was and who it was really making fun of.

I do believe that the person who drew it as it is rather than as a thought bubble or some other way might have been projecting insecurities, but I'm not a psychologist.
