Katherine Harris says photos are doctored.
http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/nation/wire/sns-ap-harris-makeup,1,1564195.story?coll=sns-ap-nation-headlines


TAMPA, Fla. -- Congresswoman Katherine Harris, who is running for a U.S. Senate seat next year, has again accused some newspapers of doctoring photos to distort her makeup as a way to poke fun at her.

In an interview on a conservative radio talk show Monday, Harris said some newspapers -- she didn't say which -- altered photos during the 2000 presidential election recount when she was Florida secretary of state.

:snip:

"I'm actually very sensitive about those things, and it's personally painful," she said. "But they're outrageously false. ... Whenever they made fun of my makeup, it was because the newspapers colorized my photograph."

She has made similar allegations in newspaper articles since the recount and in January told The Associated Press, "The jokes about my appearance -- it's the computer-enhanced photos."

As she demostrated by her handiwork in 'COLORIZING' the 2000 Florida election by disenfranchising thousands of black voters!

Damn, she just walked right into that one, eyes wide open! What a hoot!

3. How does she explain the same images on the TV? Did all of the
TV producers also doctor her image? I don't think so.
