(And before anyone gets bent out of shape, I meant SPACE aliens. If you’re not conversant with the Whovian oeuvre, this suggestion could, I fear, be misunderstood as non-P.C.)
I saw, quickly and from a distance, the window of B.I. on Fifth Avenue, with one of the Obamannequins in a top hat, and had a moment’s horrible imipression that they had decked out their windows with a minstrel show. On closer inspection, the whole effect is very Doctor Who. That would make a great episode for the Doctor, actually: Brooklyn colonized and mind-controlled by charismatic alien politico clones!
Those masks don’t even look like Obama. And the one in the middle makes him look like some kind of drag queen.
hooray, the adobe flash popup annoyance is gone! thanks.
