If Rove releases some photo-shopped picture of Kerry pissing on the flag
the weekend before the election, what can we do to refute it? All I know is that Rove recently said something to the effect of "wait till Kerry sees what we have in store for him" in October.

There's no way these maniacs are going to stand by and watch Kerry's poll numbers grow without doing something drastic.

1. When a photo is digitally altered...
...there are usually tell-tale signs of it that an expert can spot. These signs can be reduced, or possibly even eliminated, if Rove has enough brain-power and/or enough time to work on it -- and we have to assume that if he were to do it, he would do it right.

The one thing we CAN do is alert the media, and get the word out to the blogosphere and family and friends that 1) it's possibly to digitally alter a photograph or video so as to look realistic, and 2) the Bush campaign might try something like that.

Any other ideas?
