The binky is in a bunch of photos of the child, which would argue against a photoshop.

Agreed, I think it was planted though. It does not match with the debris and dirt that is on the baby.

Hi, Truth. They finally started a thread around noon. And, guess what,

Conservatives are responsible for doctored photos!! Yes, it's true. I hope you feel properly admonished.

I won't post the link, so as not to sully our site. You can find it at DU under latest threads.

Begin of cited material from DU:
"What the doctored Reuters photos tell us... about ourselves".

"The photos were doctored not by some political agenda, but for one simple reason: sensationalism sells."....

"Finally someone gets to the root.....of the matter. It [doctoring of the photos] was driven by sensationalism. That in turn is driven by greed which is a cornerstone of, and virtue within, conservative philosophy."
End of cited material.

You can file this under - The Difference Between Reality and Insanity.

It was so sweet for Green Helmet to "share" his Israeli blue pacifier. I wonder how he manages to sleep at night now without it?

Wow... thanks for the old picture and caption... It shows that some organizations already hated the US from long... And that is before they're bought by the Arabs...

Makes you wonder what they got away with in the past, doesn't it?

No kidding. I think we're seeing the result of them getting complacent & lazy. They can "fix" stills quickly now. In future, we're gonna have to te on our toes to catch them in the act.

Strange! In USENET POLITICAL GROUPS especially in alt.politics the libs are already claiming Rove is behind the photo and somehow passed it on to Reuters to trick them so they would be exposed like he did to cBS with the fake memos.

I kid you NOT!

Liberals now believe their own propaganda.

As long as they keep on doing that, they will never win power un another federal election.

Lets encourage their alternate reality, which, BTW the majority of Americans have no capacity to share.

I can hardly wait to see Rush Limbaugh's Monday statements on AP's photodoctoring, sure to amuse most and enrage the spin doctors even further.

Talk about caught with their pants down, the Emperor has no clothes at all!

Al Jezzera has become the model for AP and Reuters, and not only that, they tour Lebanon only at the supervision of Hezbollah, as admitted last week. The government of Lebanon has suffered a coupe, this tells me.

There's at least one more photo of the babe... I think it's in the pair of photos, Green Helmet & Striped Shirt. Green Helmet has the babe by his chest & the binky is dangling by the babe's side.

"I kid you NOT!"

No need to add disclaimers. I believe *you* that the left is imploding;)

Besides, maybe some of those "libs" are conservatives who infiltrated leftwing blogs and are seeding them with tinfoil hat Rove bombs....

Are pictures 1 and 3 supposed to be the same kid in the same place? If so, what is up with the difference in the floor material? And what is the guy in the back leaning on in picture 3?
