Chancellor Angela Merkel has presented as Europe's Step-Mother.
The Polish weekly Wprost has gotten in trouble in Germany. The weekly cover depicts the chancellor breat feeding the Kaczynski twins; the Polish president and the prime minister.
Prime Minister Jaroslaw Kaczynski is sucking on the left, President Lech Kaczynski has attached himself to the right.
I consider that my explanation is comprehensive enough.

Wow...that is quite a bold magazine cover! Ha ha....so, what is your analysis of it?
Hi Anita Bonita,
I agree that it is a bold weekly magazine.
It will become more popular than before. I don't know where is a limit. I don't know how far the magizine can go. It is interesting what kind of reaction it will have. Politicians are public people and they shoud be aware that society can make fun of them.
However, there should be a limit...
But, where it is nobody knows.
There are different opinions regarding this matter.
What do you think about it? I am very curious.
My point of view will always be affected by my previous experience of living under the communism system.
Here is my opinion about the cover: although it is funny, attention-getting, and probably an accurate representation of the current politics between Germany and Poland, I think it will inevitably lower the magazine's credibility.
However, if you want to know whether or not I am personally offended by it, the answer is: not at all! I am very liberal about those things! :)
