Well, Artiste, it's true that 'magazine cover illustration' is sometimes--uh, less than fully artistic than say, a t-shirt (which can have much more validity). But, if nothing else, these covers might be useful in re when they were done--

But I do know what you mean.

These last ones can't be real magazines Republican covers ?

Oh, now I get it--actually, The New Republic (TNR) is supposedly a left-wing magazine (despite the title-name). Oddly enough, I think it has right-wing tendencies--but that's old hippie me talking.

The New Republic (TNR) is an American magazine of politics and the arts. It is published biweekly and has a circulation of approximately 60,000. The editor-in-chief is Martin Peretz and the current editor is Franklin Foer. The magazine generally supports liberal policies.

Politics

Domestically, the current version of TNR supports a largely centrist to center-left stance on fiscal issues and a more strongly liberal stance on social issues. Editor Franklin Foer describes the magazine as overall center-left, stating that TNR "invented the modern usage of the term liberal, and it’s one of our historical legacies and obligations to be involved in the ongoing debate over what exactly liberalism means and stands for." As of 2004, however, Anne Kossedd and Steven Randall, contend that it is not as liberal as it was before 1974. The magazine's outlook is associated with the Democratic Leadership Council and "New Democrats" like former President Bill Clinton and Connecticut Senator Joseph Lieberman, who received the magazine's endorsement in the 2004 Democratic primary. These policies, while seeking to achieve the ends of traditional social welfare programs, often use market solutions as their means, and so are often called "business-friendly." Typical of some of the policies supported by both TNR and the DLC during the 1990s were increased funding for the Earned Income Tax Credit program and reform of the Federal welfare system. Supply-side economics, especially the idea of giving tax cuts to the rich, received heavy criticism from senior editor Jonathan Chait. Moreover, TNR is strongly in favor of universal health care. On certain high-profile social issues, such as its support of same-sex marriage, TNR could be considered more progressive than the centrist mainstream of the Democratic Party establishment.
