Parody v. Reality

If you found last week's real cover of The New Yorker magazine offensive because of the way it depicted Barack and Michelle Obama, then you may also take issue with this fake cover of Vanity Fair.
The portrait on the wall appears to be President Bush. The document burning in the fireplace is the Constitution. Republican presidential candidate John McCain, who turns 72 soon, is using a walker and has a bandage on his head (presumably a reference to his battles against skin cancer). His wife Cindy, who overcame an addiction to painkillers, is holding pill bottles.

...thing is, this one is less of a parody, isn't it?
