Does anyone know the source of this photo?


I have encountered a freeper who is claiming it was photoshopped.

It was posted in a thread here yesterday after it showed up on several blogs, including this one:

But I haven't seen it on a MSM website or in Yahoo's news photo archive.

5. I don't care if the White House is a pansy farm
I just wish they'd admit it and start acting like all the gay people I know, who are kind and funny and smart and nice. This probably does explain why the White House web site is so pink-themed.

6. Looks photoshopped!
Look at the white part around the head and back of the guy who is kneeling. The shading looks weird and he has a halo around his head. Also, where Bush's suit meets with the guy behind him, a halo. Sure signs of a Photoshop job, It's funny though.

14. Yeah, the pillar behind the kneeling guy looks like it was blanked out.

8. I saw it yesterday also and thought it didn't look like a photoshop.
But that guy in the back with the big ass smile on his face is standing too close to dumbya. No way any guy would let that happen...in public that is. And that guy in the front wouldn't be on his knees in front of Dubya like that messing with his zipper. This is funny but that photo was tampered with for sure.

10. I had thought the "Our Leader" billboards were photo shopped
but they turned out to be real afterall, so this could be a real picture taken from an unfortunate angle at an unfortunate moment in time (unfortunate for Shrub, that is.)

11. Does anyone have the Cheney instead of big guy photo?
You know, the one of the golf course where Cheney is standing behind Bush -- real close and with a slanted smile.

'been looking for the link.
