If wedding rings are on the right hand, the pic is reversed

Re: (pic) Is this real?
Lapel pins are often on the left as are wedding rings. His jacket buttons are also on the correct side. Someone would have to have made a lot of detailed edits ... otherwise, the picture looks real.

Re: (pic) Is this real?
Its not reversed. The suit buttons and pin are where they should be. Also pumped up magification to 400% cant be positive, but think the ring fingers have rings.
Re: (pic) Is this real?
NOT real - The negative was reversed.
Michelle Obama historically parts her hair over her LEFT eye, NOT her right.
Google her, & check out her pix.
In this video, a recent interview/appearance with Ellen deGeneris, her hair style can be plainly seen:

Re: (pic) Is this real?
Yes, it's a sign. A sign that we have more idiots voting in American than sensible people.
As for the picture, communists are backwards on so many things, why is it surprising their hearts are on the wrong side?

Re: (pic) Is this real?
That depends on which Dress Blue uniform he is wearing is it the Dress Alphas or the Dress Bravos? If the Alphas then his ribbons are on the correct side and the photo hasn't been altered. Hard to say their uniforms are very out of focus.

Doesn't matter how they signify their allegiance... it's not to these United States. And if all good men (& women) don't go out and vote this abomination of the electoral process out of the White House... then we're in for a revolution or becoming less than a 3rd world nation.

I believe i can agree with that, but remember God is in control and all leaders are put in place by Him for His plan.Griff wrote:Doesn't matter how they signify their allegiance... it's not to these United States.

Thank you, Bruce Scott.
Another example of what this election season is going to look like. It will be more and more difficult to differentiate fact from fiction in the months to come, I'm afraid.

Re: (pic) Is this real?
My opinion, for what it's worth, is anyone that lies and misleads to try to promote their viewpoint puts themselves below those who they are trying to denigrate. Anyone doing so loses all credibility in their overall views, and I feel about the same for anyone promoting such practices by forwarding such junk. Many likely forwarded such things believing them to be true, but have been unwitting accomplices for those that cook up such junk.
This sort of thing is one reason I tend to avoid politics, especially online. It seems all sides lie (equally in my view), and I lose all respect I have for them as individuals when they do so, whatever their intentions, and whether I ageee with them in most regards.
My political rant for the year,......

You sir have just described 100% of the politicians on this planet! That is the very definition of politics today.

Steve,
I know for a fact that there are some politicians in DC who have not bowed their knee to baal, nor to ishtar for that matter. It is a small remnant, but probably proportional to the population at large, and representative.

Re: (pic) Is this real?
Not to argue, but I find that hard to believe. By the time someone has compromised their ideals, committed to support their financial backers, and submitted to the 'help' of the power elite, just so that they could get on a national ticket, let alone win under it, they've been so corrupted by the system that I consider that being elected to a national level office as prima facia evidence of being guilty of corruption.Grizz wrote:Steve,

Re: (pic) Is this real?
I think we're talking two different classes of politician... the two top "national" offices, and those of more local import... US Representatives and to a lessor degree, US Senators. I've read of, and have met a few of the latter, and tend to agree with Grizz... there are a FEW that are less than totally corrupt. But agree with COSteve, the vast majority (especially the more than single termers), have likely sold their souls...
