Thank you for your generous gift. I plan to put most of it in savings and use the rest to buy proper stationary—just kidding.

The Night Santa Went Crazy by Weird Al
Remember this 1996 classic?
“I’m as surprised as anybody that Newt Gingrich is a frontrunner,” says Barry Blitt, this week’s cover artist. “He’s a cartoon in himself—actually, he’s a punch line.
“When I first drew Newt as a baby, I put ‘1952’ on his sash, because even 1994 seems a little modern for him somehow. I think he’d be dragging us back farther than that, even if he thinks of himself as a futurist.”
Above, some of Barry Blitt’s recent political covers. For more, including this week’s Newt Gingrich cover: http://nyr.kr/w4GKEW
