'Radar's' Bush Spoof a Bit Too Familiar

Radar's Vanity Fair-Hollywood Issue spoof with the presidential candidates was my favorite magazine cover of 2007. Their new issue's cover, on the other hand? Not quite so original.

And the George-Bush-as-Slim-Pickens-in-Dr. Strangelove trope has also turned up here and here, among other places.

By the way, I used to work for Radar and still contribute the occasional story. Sorry, guys!

Here are the full-sized Radar and Economist covers.
