A Free Republic annual award thread in these categories, then mail them a physical item? End of the year, after elections, beginning of the year?

What are you - some kind of smartass?

Your post is mocking a SERIOUS NEWS ORGANIZATION, for God's sake! Have you no decency, sir, at long last?

I once volunteered for a Presidential visit. Part of my duties included keeping the media room stocked with food and drinks. The utter boredom and contempt they showed, including mocking Bush and making fun of his accent, was eye=opening.

The Reuters guy-- I am not making this up-- was passing the time by Photoshopping photos of Bush and chimps, and vice-versa, and the AP reporter and he were making an anti-Bush Doonesbury-like comic strip.

AM a bit late to the thread. Did anyone check to see if the fake smoke was covering up something incriminating like a launcher or a stash of missiles?

Not that I know of.   A number of photos have surfaced,
and are being questioned from the same Reuters photographer.

They (DU) 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.

Very funny. It must be Karl Rove's fault? (DU mentality)

"Conservatives are responsible for doctored photos!!"

Karl Rove is a great lightning rod;)
