This New Yorker satire is actually West German art from 1985, by Olaf Schumann, who painted the poster for a conservative outfit called the Bonner Friedensforum. "This is the only, or at least one of very few posters out of West Germany that show the Fernsehturm," according to Von der Partei zur Party, 1969-2003: Der Berliner Fernsehturm als grafisches Symbol -- which by the way is the source of all the Fernsehturmkunst in this Radio Free Mike miniseries.

Hi Mike,
Let me ask you...are you there to escape "our Dubya?"
Just curious-would like to find a # on just how many Americans jumped ship after the last election.
No, no. So far I haven't even met any of those mythical people. I half-expected to write a piece about Bushfluechtlinge after I moved here, but the topic seemed to die after I left the States. Not that I've done any research.
