Loonies discuss Obama's people's Photoshop faking skills


Sample lunacy:

What better way to prove to your radical Islamist terrorist buddies that you are loyal to them than to re-enact 9/11? Who was in the plane laughing at the panic stricken Americans ? Obama is out to destroy the United States.


Apparently Air Force 1 wasn't there at all. Or it was but it was full of terraists. So what is evil Obama really up to? OMG, You're all doomed!!

2. It's how conservo-blogs made their bones
and got noticed by lumbering, clueless big media. LGF and Powerline were all over the TANG records and suddenly Time named Powerline their first Blog of the Year. The other idiots figured sleuthing for fakery was their ticket to the big time and have been at it since.

So, let's look at it. Here's a blown-up, brightened clip of the "flags" from a higher resolution pic than they're using:



Here's an aerial view of the area. OMG, there are buildings behind the flag court. More White House photoshoppery?!



Here's the Flickr image they borrowed, except... this one is the higher resolution version they chose not to use. Hey, lookie! A building beneath the flag:



The morons are looking at buildings.

Of course though, it hasn't occurred to any of them to ask -- to what end?

WHY would Dark Lord Barry Hussein order a second flag (a flag with no pole, at that) photoshopped into the pic? Other than to tickle MissTickly's G-spot, that is.

3. Nice job. Plus,

it looks like the original idiot tried to disguise the shadow of the single flagpole with a pink arrow.
Was it because they wanted to believe so badly that they hid the truth from themselves, or were they being knowingly deceitful?



edit: to show the original disguised shadow:
